I'm a responsible, communicative, and nurturing nanny with solid experience caring for newborns and children of all ages. I easily adapt to each family's routine and provide a warm, safe, and structured environment. Families I've worked with can offer excellent references regarding my work, reliability, and connection with children. I'm fluent in Spanish and, if the family prefers, I can incorporate it into the children's daily routine as a natural part of language learning. I also have experience preparing healthy meals, keeping spaces organized, and encouraging good habits. I truly enjoy supporting children's cognitive and emotional development through age-appropriate activities, storytelling, games, and meaningful interactions. I'm looking for a stable, long-term position where I can contribute to the children's well-being and growth while building a strong relationship of trust with the family.
Leicy came to us for a part-time nanny position and I am honestly obsessed with her. She started helping with my daughter when she was 10 months old and going through severe separation anxiety, and handled it with so much patience, warmth, and positivity! Even with me working from home and my daughter only wanting me at times, Leicy always jumped right in — singing, playing, distracting, and making every situation easier. Over time, my daughter completely warmed up to her and now absolutely loves her. She has even been able to put her down for naps (which most people can’t do!). She’s reliable, kind, proactive, and always willing to help however she can. Any family would be incredibly lucky to have her!
