I have experience taking care of infants to teenagers since 2021. I also have consistent experience with special needs (autism, behavioral and learning difficulties) ages 2-13. I'm certified by the American Red Cross in Advanced Child Care Training, and by the National CPR Foundation in CPR/AED/First-Aid. Proudly I'm a patient, compassionate and flexible nanny because I believe in education based on dialogue and love. My last experience was from September 2023 until now, and I took care of a 9mo sweet baby girl who is 2yo now and ready to go to preschool. I did food prep, fed her (solids and milk), played time with age-appropriate developmental activities (reading, games, walks outside and at the park a few times a week), changed/baby laundry, kept diapers and creams stocked, gave baths and organized play area. Before that, I was an AuPair for an amazing family for 1 year and took care Read more of three lovely and energetic boys (2, 8, 12) who are in the Spectrum. I did their drop off and pick up, prepared meals and lunchboxes, administered their medications, did the laundry, helped with potty training, and provided all the support they needed, as well as their parents. In Brazil I worked for one year at a daycare that had an average of 50 students. My focus was supporting four special needs toddlers at the same time, but I also assisted other infants and kids. I can provide references. Plus - I have a degree in Business Administration and Human Resources. Thank you, Barbara.
