Hello! My name is Victoria D'Orazio, and I’m so excited to find my next full-time nanny position! With over 11 years of experience, I’ve had the joy of caring for children from newborns to 12 years old—most extensively between the ages of 3 months to 4 years. I have a strong background in supporting children of all abilities, including those with Down syndrome and autism. My experience includes working in private homes, public school classrooms (as a preschool teacher’s aide), and as a 1-on-1 aide for children with developmental disabilities. I bring warmth, reliability, and positivity to every family I work with. I’m passionate about nurturing children’s emotional, mental, and physical development and dream of becoming a mother myself one day. I'm also happy to help with household tasks—cooking (I love to cook!), grocery shopping, light cleaning, laundry, and driving. I recently relocated to Florida to support my boyfriend while Read more he attends dental school at UF, and I’m looking to build a long-term, meaningful relationship with a local family. I hold a Bachelor of Business Administration in Marketing (graduated with honors) and have a background in musical theatre—creativity and fun are always part of my care style! I’m CPR and First Aid certified, have a valid driver’s license, and am comfortable caring for multiple children at once. Over the years, I’ve built strong, trusted relationships with many families—some of whom I’ve worked with for over 7 years—and I’d be happy to provide references who can speak to my character and experience. I’m also highly organized, with strong time management skills and a calm, clear communication style. I work closely with parents to ensure their values and routines are supported. I love helping children learn and grow and am confident supporting early childhood development—whether that’s helping with reading, writing, or homework for older children. In my free time, I enjoy trying new recipes, baking sourdough bread, going for walks, bike rides, and attending church. These activities keep me grounded and joyful, and I bring that same positive energy into my work with families. I look forward to connecting with you and your family!
