About me
I’m a dedicated caregiver from Brazil, and working with children is one of my greatest passions. For me, being a nanny is more than just a job—it’s about sharing love and joy with each child. Parents appreciate my care and attention, and I’m known for my commitment, responsibility, and adaptability. I strive to create a safe, nurturing environment where kids feel happy and supported, making my work incredibly rewarding.
I began my childcare journey in the U.S. in 2009 as an Au Pair through an international caregiver program. I cared for 18-month-old twin girls, managing their daily routines, including daycare drop-offs, potty training, bath time, bedtime, and organizing educational activities. This program lasted for 2 years. Before moving to the U.S., I gained experience babysitting for friends and family in Brazil and working at children's birthday parties, where I organized games and activities. In 2018, I returned to the U.S. and worked with several families, providing both occasional babysitting and full-time care. For the Zangi family, I worked for 4.5 years with a 6-year-old girl and an 8-year-old autistic boy. I managed their schedules, assisted with homework, supported therapies, handled school pickups, prepared meals, and organized playdates and activities. With the Zurel family, I cared for an infant and a newborn, focusing on developmental milestones, meal prep, food introduction, playdates, activities like swimming and music classes, diaper changes, sleep routines, and overnight stays. I also traveled internationally with the family, including living almost for two months in Israel.
I enjoy working with children of all ages, but I particularly love working with infants and toddlers. At this stage, they are learning so much about the world around them, and it’s incredibly rewarding to be a part of their development—helping them reach milestones, whether it’s learning to walk, talk, or discover new skills. I also enjoy working with preschool and school-age children because they are more independent and curious, and it’s exciting to engage them in more creative and interactive activities that challenge their growing minds.

Activities & skills I love to teach & share with children...
I love engaging children in age-appropriate activities that foster creativity and fun. With younger kids, I enjoy reading books, drawing, coloring, playing hide and seek, singing songs, and engaging in imaginative play with dolls. I also love introducing them to painting, crafting, and spending time at playgrounds. For older kids, I enjoy more complex crafts, board games, cooking, and outdoor activities that challenge them and encourage active play. My goal is to create a joyful and enriching experience for each child, tailored to their interests and developmental stage.
