Hello, my name is Lorena. I've been a nanny for about 7 years now. I love my job and what I do. Children are the most caring, emotional, and natural people. They deserve to be understood and shown that someone is always with them. This is why I love my job. I'm a very calm and nurturing person, I love to engage with kids and help them be the best versions of themselves that they can be. I'm very responsible, neat, and organized. I've worked with children and adults that have developmental needs, and coming from a family with two siblings ( one with autism, and one with cerebral palsy) with developmental needs has giving me the unique opportunity to learn and listen. I understand children in ways that others can't, and I help them learn how to communicate. Children deserve the same respect that you would give an elder, Read more they just need a little help to express themselves. I'm fluent in Spanish (speaking and writing), I'm very experienced in culinary ( meal preps for the children and transitioning from different kinds of solids, also for the parents if it is something that is needed), I'm also an experienced swimmer. I'm very hands on in anything I do and never do things half way. I adapt very well and learn very quickly. Being a caregiver, a nanny, has brought me so much joy in my life. I would love to find the perfect family and bring ease to the parents as well of filling your child/children with smiles and so much love
