Experience: 6 yrs
I have over 6 years of experience caring for children from infants to school-aged kids. I've cared for the same child since he was 8 months old, and he is now 5 years old, supporting his growth through every stage of early childhood. I'm a responsible, proactive, patient, and trustworthy caregiver who loves creating a safe, loving, and structured environment where children can learn and thrive. I enjoy planning creative and educational activities such as arts and crafts, reading, outdoor play, and sensory activities that encourage curiosity, confidence, and independence. I have reliable transportation, a clean driving record, and I'm a non-smoker. I'm highly organized and comfortable helping with daily routines, meal preparation, school pick-ups, and keeping children's spaces tidy. My goal is to build a trusting relationship with families while providing nurturing care that supports each child's development.
I can’t say enough good things about Bruna as a caregiver! From everything I’ve experienced with her, she is truly one of the most proactive, thoughtful, and trustworthy nannies you could ask for. She approaches childcare with so much intention and heart, treating the kids with the same love and attentiveness as if they were her own younger siblings. Her planning skills are top-tier: she’s always checking the weather forecast to map out the perfect day, whether that means a trip to the pool, a bike ride, or a nature walk. If the weather doesn’t cooperate, she seamlessly pivots to great indoor activities. She stays plugged into everything happening locally, always finding fun community events like library Lego times, neighborhood carnivals, and city festival activities. Beyond being smart, fun, and a safe, reliable driver, she is completely self-motivated. You never have to micromanage her or worry about directing her day—she takes initiative and handles all the details so you have complete peace of mind. She lives a genuinely healthy, wholesome lifestyle and brings that same care and energy into everything she does with the kids. I am constantly impressed by how mindful, engaged, and organized she is. Any family would be incredibly lucky to have her! I recommend her in a heartbeat!
