Hi there! My name is Vitalina. I am a patient, attentive, and caring nanny with a university degree in education and a deep love for kids. One of my degrees is a singing teacher, and I also play the piano. While I focus on general childcare, my background helps me bring a warm, creative touch to my work. As a mom of two wonderful children (ages 9 and 11), I have years of hands-on experience. For the past 2 years, I worked with two wonderful families, specializing in infant care. In both roles, I started when the babies were 4 months old and stayed until they turned 1. 5. I know exactly how to keep babies safe, happy, and comfortable as they grow and learn new things every day. Additionally, I am a professional photographer. I love using my skills to capture those beautiful, fleeting everyday moments of children playing and growing, precious memories that families will cherish forever. I look for a respectful connection with a family where I can provide reliable care.
Vitalina has been a gift to our family. She took care of my youngest son from about 4 months old until he was 18 months, and we still get to have her babysit all three of our children from time to time. The year+ that we were lucky enough to have Vitalina working with our family was a joy. Her presence in our home is calm, patient, loving, and joyful. She cared for our son as if he was her own, lovingly helping him through nap transitions, introducing to solid food, and navigating other developmental milestones. She is excellent at communicating her schedule, baby's daily report, and sharing pictures/videos throughout the day so we always felt included even while at work. We cannot say enough about the positive impact that Vitalina has had on our family over the years that we have been lucky enough to know her.
