Hello! My name is Ana and I’m a certified child care provider with experience caring for children from 1 month old to 7 years old. I have lovingly cared for my own children, siblings, and cousins since I was young, and I’ve supported families both in my home country and now here in Miami. I speak Spanish fluently and understand English at about 70%, so I can communicate well with both children and parents. I truly love what I do — I always give 100% of myself, and families describe me as warm, trustworthy, and dedicated. I’m also comfortable with pets and have flexible availability, including mornings, evenings, weekends, and short-notice care. I recently earned my Child Care Diploma (May 2024) and I continue learning every day to become the best nanny I can be.

I’m a warm, patient, and dependable caregiver with hands-on experience caring for infants and young children. I’ve supported families with everything from newborn routines and overnight care to energetic toddlers who love to stay busy. I’m very comfortable with feeding, naps, playtime, bedtime routines, and creating a calm, safe environment where children feel secure and happy. I’m especially mindful of following parents’ preferences and routines, and I understand how important consistency and trust are when it comes to childcare. I’m happy to help with light child-related tasks like bottles, baby food prep, and laundry to make parents’ days a little easier. Parents often describe me as nurturing, attentive, and easy to communicate with. I take pride in being reliable, present, and genuinely caring with every child I work with. I treat each family as if they were my own and aim to be the extra support parents can truly count on.
