Meet Berta

  • Speaks English and Spanish
  • Comfortable with pets

I have ten years experience. I am fluent in English and Spanish. I love caring for children and I am passionate about what I do. This is what my current employer wrote about me: Berta is not only an incredible caregiver, but she is a generous and loving spirit who is a joy to be around. Berta cared for our toddler-aged daughter for the past year and a half and I couldn't be happier. Our daughter loves Berta and they have a lovely relationship. She has helped generously with potty training and sets up playdates with others. I always come home to an apartment neater and cleaner than I left it. I know Berta genuinely cares for the well being of my child! I come home to a very happy child each and every time! I received rave reviews about Berta from her former employers and know that she has Read more been a nanny for more than ten years in homes in Manhattan and Brooklyn. Berta is currently looking to give her expert care to a new family 3-5 days/week. Second reference: I simply couldn't give a stronger recommendation for Berta. She is completely loving, professional, genuine, responsible, and intelligent. She really listened to my daughter and understood her. She has a special way of earning a child's trust. She is gentle and sweet, and tries to see the "whole" child. Berta cared for our daughter from 12 months to 2 1/2. She is wonderful with infants and young children alike. Berta is completely upbeat, and I found her often laughing with our daughter. She knows how to work with toddlers: She always gave two choices of clothing, and asked our daughter's opinion about things. She helped generously with potty training and setting up meaningful playdates with others. She helped instill our daughter with a sense of caring, humor, manners, and thoughtfulness. With infants she has a special, loving touch. Berta is so easy to get along with. I felt very comfortable with her, and we never had a communication error. I felt grateful for her capacity to communicate clearly and promptly. (She gave me a report every evening about the day. She always called and texted back, often immediately after receiving messages. While working, she didn't use her phone for personal reasons. Berta is an amazing caregiver!
