Experience: 20 yrs
Hi families! My name is Sandra, and I have over 20 years of experience working with children as a teacher in Brazil. I believe children learn through play, daily experiences, outdoor activities, and positive interactions. I value long-term relationships with families based on trust, communication, and mutual respect. I started working with children when I was 15 years old as a teacher's assistant in a daycare, and I never stopped. After moving to the United States, I decided to continue working with children as a nanny because being part of their growth and development is something I truly love. In my spare time, I enjoy camping and spending time with my family. One thing families should know about me is that I genuinely enjoy being around children and being part of their growth. My skills include encouraging learning through play and daily activities, and helping children build confidence, independence, and positive interactions with others.
I honestly can’t say enough good things about Sandra. She has been our nanny for the past 2.5 years and has played a huge role in helping raise our daughter, and over time, she has become part of our family. Our daughter and Sandra have built an incredible bond, she has been there for so many important moments in her life and has always cared for her with so much love, patience, and attention. Sandra is not only amazing with children, but she is also a great educator. She always finds ways to keep kids engaged, learning, and having fun. We have watched our daughter grow and develop so much during the time Sandra has been with us, and we know Sandra has played a big part in that. The level of trust we have in Sandra is hard to put into words. We trust her completely. In fact, we have felt comfortable enough to let our daughter stay overnight at Sandra’s home, which says a lot about the confidence we have in her character and judgment. At this point, Sandra is truly part of our family. She comes to family gatherings, attends dance performances, and has been involved in our lives far beyond what you would normally expect from a nanny. The only reason we are no longer needing her on a regular basis is because our daughter will be starting preschool in August. If it were not for that, we would gladly continue having Sandra as part of our daily lives. We would recommend Sandra without hesitation to any family. Any child would be lucky to have her, and any parent would have complete peace of mind knowing their child is in her care. We are happy to provide a reference by phone or answer any questions, so please feel free to reach out. Andrey & Caroline
