About Rafaela
Experience: 7 yrs
COVID-19 vaccinated
I'm Rafaela, I'm 28 years old and from Brazil. I spent 2 years as an au pair in the same family for 2 years. I cared for a little girl from the age of 8 months to her current age of 30 months. When I started with this wonderful family, they had an 8-month-old girl and I used to manage daily routines, including meals, diaper changes, and nap time, and medication when it was needed. During her development, I organized education, recreational activities, and transporting the child to activities and play dates, potty and sleep training. I would describe myself easygoing, flexible, and patient. I truly enjoy supporting children's growth and development and find joy in helping them thrive. Feel free to reach out and I can also share my references.

We’ve known Rafa since September of last year when our 2-year old son started taking a toddler class with the little girl she cares for. Our son adores her and would often come home talking about her on the days they had class. She now babysits for us regularly and both our kids love her. She has a wonderful calm energy and patience, and is extremely loving and kind. She is also very professional and capable, handling outings with a 2-year old and 4-year old with ease. She is a wonderful nanny!
