I'm passionate about nurturing children's development and creating a safe, nurturing environment where they can thrive. With 20 years of experience as a childcare provider, I am comfortable caring for children of all ages, from infants to preteens. I believe in open communication with parents and will provide regular updates on your child's day. I also have CPR training and am a certified teacher. My patient and calm demeanor, combined with my creative and imaginative nature, allows me to connect with children and make learning fun. I enjoy playing a variety of games with children, both educational and recreational. Whether it's engaging in outdoor sports, playing board games, or solving puzzles, I strive to foster a love for learning and exploration in the children I care for. I am committed to following the parents' lead and enforcing household rules consistently. I understand the importance of maintaining a structured and safe environment for children.

Natalia was a wonderful nanny to our two kids (2 and 3 years old) for the six months she was with us. On top of being caring and patient with the kids (and frequently offering us advice - although she absolutely means well), she is extremely prompt - you never have to worry about her being late or not showing up. She even came during times when the kids were sick, which was very much appreciated. She also went out of her way to help with household chores like washing dishes, putting away laundry and fixing the kids’ beds. The house was always tidy at the end of the day. Unfortunately, we had to part ways due to an opportunity we couldn’t pass up with a family member stepping in to watch the kids. We hope Natalia finds a loving family to join next, as deserved!
