Hello! I’m Linda, I’m originally from Italy and I’m a former Au Pair. I currently live in Austin, TX. I was an AuPair for two years and then I continued being a nanny. I offer child care, pet care and house services such as clean, cook and run errands. Child care: For two years I took care of three boys (ages 6 to 12). Back in Italy I was often taking care of my nieces (ages 3 to 13). I love spending sunny days outdoors and rainy days inside, maybe with some hot cocoa too! The boys always say I make the best snacks! They especially love when I make my special strawberries! During these two years I’ve also taken them to their activities, dropped them off/picked them up from school, helped with homework, make them meals and worked with their parents to promote positive behavior. Also, at the New Read more York Training School for Au Pairs I’ve learned CPR and first aid. To become an Au Pair I needed more than 200 hours of childcare and also a criminal background check. I have all of them if needed. Pet care: My brother, who is 15 years older than me, has a ranch back in Italy and has had it for as long as I can remember. He taught me how to take care of dogs and horses. I’m very comfortable with dogs of any size, taking them on a walk, playing with them, feeding them and supervise them. During my two years as an Au Pair, I also took care of a German Shepherd and two cats. And now I have two dogs, Bailey and Austin! I’m looking forward to talk to you, Linda
