About Rafaela

Experience: 5 yrs

COVID-19 vaccinated

As a nurturing and experienced childcare provider with five years of experience, I am passionate about creating a safe, stimulating, and fun environment for children to grow and learn. My journey into childcare began with fulfilling babysitting roles, where I discovered my love for caring for children and the positive impact I could have on their lives. I am a patient, calm, and friendly individual who believes in open and honest communication with parents. Whether it's through verbal communication at pickup, regular text updates, or phone calls, I ensure that parents are well-informed about their child's day and any issues that may arise. When it comes to enforcing household rules, I firmly believe in following the parents' lead and respecting their parenting style. I strive to provide a consistent and structured environment for the children in my care, while also allowing them to explore their creativity and independence.

Rafaela always ensures my child feels safe, happy, and engaged, whether through creative play, helping with homework, or maintaining a structured routine. One of the things I appreciate most about Rafaela is her reliability and excellent communication. She keeps me updated throughout the day and handles any challenges with grace and professionalism. Rafaela also demonstrates a natural ability to connect with children, making my child feel comfortable and valued. I am truly grateful for Rafaela’s commitment to my family and the positive impact she has had.
