I love working with kids and helping them learn, grow, and have fun! I started out working at a daycare and quickly realized how much I enjoy caring for children of all ages. I’m patient, dependable, and love planning fun activities that keep kids happy and engaged. I’ve worked with infants, toddlers, and school-age children, and I always make sure they feel safe and cared for. Parents can count on me to be responsible, kind, and easy to communicate with. I truly enjoy what I do and treat every child like they’re part of my family!

Hello! My name is Terceira. I'm 22years old, a proud fur mama, and a dedicated, nurturing childcare provider with over 6 years of paid experience and 4 years of unpaid experience, caring for children from newborn to age 10. I'm known for creating a safe, engaging, and developmentally supportive environment where children can learn, play, and thrive. I genuinely enjoy working with children because I value being a positive role model. There's a deep sense of purpose in helping a child learn, grow, and feel supported every step of the way. I'm looking for a nanny position with a family I can build a strong, trusting relationship with where I can provide not only reliable care but also a loving and structured routine. My goal is to become someone your child looks forward to seeing and your family can truly count on.
