Hello! I am a passionate and dedicated childcare professional with several years of experience working with children of all ages, ranging from infants to teenagers. Over the years, I have gained valuable experience in a variety of settings, including public schools, special education, and as a nanny. My time working in these environments has allowed me to develop a deep understanding of each child's unique needs, fostering their growth and creating a nurturing environment for them to thrive. Currently, I am also a dance teacher, where I have the pleasure of guiding students in developing their creative expression and building confidence.

Mirelle B., Child Care in Halifax, MA 02338 with 9 years of paid experience

I’m Brazilian and I’m 28 years old. I have over 9 years of childcare experience, including 5 years in Brazil and more than 4 years in the United States. During my most recent position, where I worked with the same family for almost three years, I gained extensive hands-on experience in child development and daily routines. I also had the opportunity to teach the children Portuguese as a second language, helping them learn and feel comfortable communicating in another language from an early age. I am a caring, patient, and affectionate nanny who truly enjoys working with children. I like to engage them in educational and fun activities, including indoor and outdoor play, creative games, reading, and age-appropriate learning activities. I speak Portuguese fluently and have basic Spanish skills. I am comfortable with pets and have great references. I am CPR/First Aid/AED certified, fully vaccinated against COVID-19, and I have my own car with reliable transportation. I currently live in Weymouth, MA, and I am available to work Monday through Saturday. Feel free to message me if you have any questions — I would be happy to talk!

Mirelle has been watching my now 17-month-old as our full-time nanny for the past 7 months. She has been amazing with him, expanding the activities she does with him each day to grow along with his development/capability level. She is very nurturing, incredibly easy to work with, takes feedback well, and understands his needs and how to read him. She is an amazing cook, will prepare dinners for the whole family that are also age appropriate for our son, and will also do other housework as required/requested. She has been such an easy person to welcome into our home and we're looking forward to continuing to work with her!

I would like to have it noted that Danielle is an awesome nanny/babysitter! We are so pleased with everything she has done for our two, four and nine year old while watching them recently. She was able to really keep our son focused on fun, learning activities, games, drawing, some creative cooking. Things that were not just video game oriented, she was able to limit that which was great. We just couldn't be happier with her attitude, her punctuality and flexibility. I highly recommend her as a babysitter.

Naike was wonderful! Naike babysat for our 10 year old, two nights, at a hotel when we were in town for a wedding. She thought of small details that made things easier on my husband and I. She was calm, open to and had ideas for activities within that setting, and kept safety of our child a priority. A few things came up and she navigated them gracefully, communicating with us when appropriate and just taking the lead when it wasn't necessary to involve my husband and I. Her experience and ability to interact with children was evident. We would hire her again in a heartbeat.
