Meet Minerva

  • Certified Nursing Assistant

I am a happily married wife of 32 years, and have raised three wonderful girls. I have a nursing assistant certificate from HCC, and have worked in several reputable positions including Ben Taub Hospital and the City of Houston. I have also been an Educator at the Chicano Family Center and spent some time as a Researcher for the Baylor College of Medicine. As a nanny I have experience working with children of all ages from newborn babies to teenagers. I have also had the privilege of caring for two separate families at the same time; an infant of six months and a 4 year old, with the addition of another newborn. My previous nanny job entailed caring for three preteens; I had the privilege of being with them until their departure to college.

We interviewed Minerva for an after-school nanny position and we were really impressed with her experience. I think she would be an excellent candidate for a family with full-time or near full-time year-round hours, which unfortunately we couldn't offer at this time. If you are looking for a true house manager, Minerva is an excellent choice.
