Hello, my name is Monica. I'm a 25-year-old mother to a wonderful, energetic son. As an outdoor enthusiast at heart, I enjoy activities such as swimming, arts and crafts, and taking in nature. I am passionate about working with children, which becomes apparent from my 5 years' experience as a nanny, babysitter, and mother's helper. I've had the wonderful opportunity of working with families, both through personal connections and platforms like JuneCare and Care.com. Being a mother myself, I've developed a profound understanding of children's needs and the importance of providing a nurturing and stimulating environment. I have a wide range of experience minding children from newborns to children over 10 years of age and am comfortable overseeing up to four or more at a time. In addition to childcare, I'm eager to help manage your household. From cooking to light housekeeping, running errands, assisting with homework, organizing events, or Read more taking care of your family's pet, I'm ready to contribute in any way that makes your life easier. I'm adaptable and mindful of ensuring dietary requirements are met when preparing meals for children. Holding First Aid and CPR training certifications underlines my commitment to your children's safety and well-being. Rest assured, I am a non-smoker and a proficient swimmer. Should the need arise, I am willing to obtain a police check for your peace of mind. As for my availability, I can work flexibly throughout the week - mornings, afternoons, evenings, and nights, and I'm readily available to start immediately. Given my preference for a live-in, full-time nanny position, I'm here to provide round-the-clock assistance within your home. With the bonus of a driver's license and the willingness to travel, I can also help with transporting children to activities or appointments. I am confident that my extensive experience and genuine love for children will make me a beneficial addition to your family. I look forward to the opportunity to provide your family with reliable, caring, and professional childcare.
