About me

I was born in New York and raised in Miami, Florida. In 2012, I self-published a children's book, and in 2013, I became a nanny after moving to Jersey City. I hold a black belt in Mixed Martial Arts and have lived in Brooklyn, NY, for the past eight years.

I am well-versed in all facets of childcare and have eleven years of experience supporting the success and well-being of children with varying needs and interests. My experience ranges from caring for newborns to toddlers, including twin infants, and I am highly adaptable in handling tasks such as running errands, changing diapers, and entertaining children according to parental specifications. I bring a strong work ethic and a commitment to providing children with a safe and nurturing environment where they can thrive.

I especially love seeing children’s faces light up when they experience something fun for the first time. Whether it’s a train or bus ride to a new play space, it brings me joy to see them happy. I also enjoy doing puzzles with toddlers and exploring art activities together.

I love caring for infants and watching them grow into their unique personalities while hitting important milestones. Toddlers, with their funny and adorable attempts to form words and create sentences—often mixing everything up—bring a special kind of joy to my day.

Activities & skills I love to teach & share with children...

I love engaging children through storytelling, reading, and thoughtful conversations that help them develop language and communication skills. Encouraging harmonious relationships between children is another area I’m passionate about, as it fosters a sense of empathy and teamwork. I also enjoy guiding children through arts and crafts projects, where they can express creativity and develop fine motor skills.
