Meet The Nannies
Hilda
Hello,
I'm Hilda, a dedicated childcare provider with six years of experience caring for children aged 1-12. I'm reliable, compassionate, and committed to providing a nurturing and stimulating environment for young children.
My experience includes working in daycare settings, as a nanny, and as a babysitter. I'm certified in First Aid, CPR, and Food Handler safety.
I believe in positive reinforcement, setting clear boundaries, and encouraging good behavior through praise and rewards.
I enjoy planning and preparing healthy meals and snacks, and I'm comfortable with light housekeeping duties like laundry and cleaning.
I'm available weekdays and weekends from 8 AM to 11 PM. While I don't have a driver's license, I'm happy to use public transportation or ride-sharing services.
I'm open to working with families from diverse cultural backgrounds, but I'm not experienced in caring for children with special needs. I'm also not comfortable with pets in the home and I don't smoke.
​
Thank you for considering me.
Hilda
