Experience: 8 yrs
Hello families, My name is Rafaela, and I live in DC. I have more than 8 years of experience in childcare, including working as daycare teacher before moving to the United States. Over the years, I have cared for children ranging in age from 4 month to 9 years old. I love creating a safe, fun, and nurturing environment where they can learn, play, feel loved and reach new milestones, whether it is daily routines, engaging in creative activities, reading books, or spending time outdoors is something that I truly enjoy and find incredibly rewarding. In addition to English, I also have conversational in Portuguese, Spanish, basic Italian which allows me to communicate with families from diverse backgrounds. If you would like to learn more about me and my experience, I'd be happy to answer any questions. Feel free to send me a message! I look forward to meeting your family and helping provide a safe, caring, and nurturing environment for your little ones.
We’ve had Rafaela babysit our son many times, and she has been wonderful every single time. She is incredibly warm, enthusiastic, and engaging, and our son always has a great time with her. It’s clear that she genuinely enjoys spending time with kids, and she brings a positive, caring energy that immediately puts everyone at ease. We trust her completely and would highly recommend Rafaela to any family looking for a dependable, kind, and exceptional babysitter.
