Hi, I’m Mia! I’ve spent years helping raise my two nephews and my niece—pretty much from the time they were wobbly walkers all the way to reading their first books. I genuinely love being around kids because they’re hilarious, curious, and always surprising me. I’m comfortable with everything from play-time adventures to helping with early learning, meals, and bedtime routines. Families say I’m patient, reliable, and a natural at keeping kids entertained while still keeping things safe. Whether it’s reading stories, building forts, or coming up with silly games, I make sure your little ones have fun and feel cared for. I am CPR+First Aid Certified

During my undergraduate studies, I worked with children who needed support in every way, and that experience deeply shaped my love for caregiving. It showed me how children are pure in love, mind, and spirit, and how meaningful it is to be part of their growth. All of my undergraduate internships and jobs were focused on working with children—caring for them, showing compassion, engaging in play, and supporting them through important emotional and developmental moments. Here in the United States, during my first year I worked as a nanny for two children, which gave me hands-on experience in daily care and routine management. After that, I transitioned to a position caring for an elderly person, which strengthened my patience, responsibility, and ability to provide attentive, individualized care. I consider myself responsible, patient, and dedicated, and I enjoy creating a safe and warm environment for those I care for. -Always work with a digital planner so that everyone has the correct information. - I can support you with any extra activities you may need. - Different activities for your little ones' development. --- 1.Punctuality 2.Willingness to adopt new routines 3.Teamwork 4.Communication and constant monitoring of plans. 5.
