My professional career is working in private services as a nanny, personal assistant and household manager with 30+ years of experience working in both casual and formal households. I have been in service to high profile families in music, TV/Entertainment, and high tech business and sign NDA'S. I have experience working with children of all ages including infants, teenagers and special children. I enjoy playing with children outdoors, games, arts/crafts, drama/performance and assisting with homework projects. I make sure the children feel loved and safe when their parents are not present. I teach children to be organized with their lives, improving motor and social skills. I am originally from Brazil, however, I am a US Citizen living in the US for over 30 years. I hold a BA Degree in Business and I am a Certified Nutritionist and Homeopath. I am highly organized and detail-oriented, extremely discreet, trustworthy, friendly and reliable.

Andrea was absolutely amazing with our two special needs kids! We were coming from out of town and this was our first experience using care.com. She showed up on time daily, fed one through her stomach tube as needed, took the kids on walks/outings to nearby attractions they absolutely loved, and was warm and friendly with us all. She gave our boy the extra attention he loved. He even was a bit sad about her leaving. With our daughter who may take a bit to warm up to people, she was interactive quite quickly with Andrea. The gifts Andrea brought the kids were also winners. Our boy had to make sure he kept tabs on it daily around the house. Not only this, but she took great care of the house we rented, and everything was spotless when we returned. The kids were in bed sound asleep as she patiently awaited our return. We were sad to part ways when it was time to return home, but will absolutely contact Andrea again when we are in town. We lucked out with finding such an amazing, attentive, helpful, loving caretaker for our family during our vacation.
