About Nicole M.
Experience: 10 yrs
COVID-19 vaccinated
Since I can remember, I always had so much joy around children and my patience and calm manners always surprised my ballet teacher and the parents of the children I worked with. I got my first invitation to start helping with the preschoolers when I was 14 years old, I started teaching my own class when I was 15 years old. I worked with children from 4 to 19 years old for 10 years, during my enrollment as a Certified Teacher of an academy of dance and that opened opportunities in three different countries: Brazil, England and Portugal. But the most amazing experience of them all started 24 months ago with the arrival of our 1st baby! It's incredible how much we learn from them! Becoming a mother has been the best training ever. Yes, I will take care of your little or big sweet pea with a great sense of responsibility. I would love to learn from your experiences, listen to your preferences and make sure that you are satisfied and your child(children) is (are) happy! I am looking forward to meeting you!

Nicole (who goes by "Nanny G") is an amazing caregiver! As a mother herself to 2 children, she knows how to help children thrive, build good habits, and understand boundaries at each developmental age. We trust her and are so appreciative for her time and care. She's kind, patient, loves life, and is always respectful. She worked consistently for our family for about a year watching one child, and at times multiple children simultaneously. We had to move on from hiring her for the sole reason that we moved further away. In addition to care taking for our son (aged 2 at the time), she was happy to help with daily tasks such as dishes, laundry, vacuuming, tidying up around the house, etc.!
