About Penelope

Experience: 4 yrs

Nurturing young minds is a true passion of mine. With four plus years of experience caring for children ages 6 and up, I've learned that patience and a friendly approach create the best environment for growth. My previous babysitting roles sparked my interest in fostering children's development, and I enjoy supporting families by providing reliable care. I am comfortable caring for up to two children. I love playing educational games that make learning fun! I am happy to follow your lead when it comes to household rules and prefer to keep you updated on your child's day via text or phone call, I am here to make your life easier. I am currently enrolled in school majoring in Health Administration and have up to date CPR Training. Speaking both English and Spanish allows me to connect with a wider range of children and families. I also love to cook and feel comfortable helping with light chores. I look forward to the opportunity to bring my calm energy and experience to your family.

It is my pleasure to recommend Penelope for a childcare position. Penelope was employed by our family as a nanny and household assistant from 2021 through September 2023, providing care for our daughter, who is now 10 years old. Penelope's time with us spanned a crucial period in our daughter's development, transitioning from late elementary years into pre-adolescence. She managed all necessary pick up and drop offs duties smoothly and punctually, coordinating with school and extracurricular schedules effectively. Penelope demonstrated flexibility by consistently supporting us for regular date nights and working occasional weekends when required, always maintaining her reliability. As a caregiver, Penelope possesses the necessary blend of structure, warmth, and logistical competency required for caring for a school-aged child. We highly recommend Penelope without reservation. Please feel free to contact us if you require further details.
