Hi there! My name is Monique Torres and I am a 24 year old currently taking 1 class a semester to finish up my degree in Early Childhood Education. I have been caring for children since I was about 14 years old. I come from a very big family, youngest of 30 here. I started babysitting for my mothers co workers, their friends and eventually started building my own clientele. I started nannying when I moved back home from college in 2018 and have been a nanny ever since. I’ve worked with children that have autism, children that have down syndrome, children with disabilities. When I started out nannying I was working with children 2-5 years of age, as I grew more confident and knew that this was what I wanted to do, I started working with infants, 5-9 months specifically, then I started working with newborns, I have been Read more a night nanny, I have been a nanny for a 6 week old LO. I’ve built long time relationships with all these families, I’ve been called back by so many to this day for date nights & day jobs even overnights. I am CPR certified, I also speak Spanish, as well as learning ASL & Sāmoan. I look forward to hearing from you. Thank you for the time.
