Hi my name is Pricila Velez. I’m 24 years old. I speak English and Spanish. I love being around kids. I also work as a teacher assistant in middle school and use to work in a elementary as well. I love pet’s. I started working has a nanny or babysitting when I was 17 year older. When I was getting out of school I was taking care of two beautiful kids, one of the were in pre-k and the other one was in 2 grade. Both of the boys have medical condition, as ( remote sensors, autism’s, lactose intolerant, and much more). Also I use to care and help older people with health problems. I help them in every way ( given them a bath, feeding, putting clothes on them and helping them move from place to place)

To my potential family, I am so excited to meet you and hopefully develop a lifelong relationship! I am filled with SO much excitement and joy at the possibility that we might just be exactly what the other is looking for! As an individual, I am curious, intelligent, intuitive, and have a great sense of humor! I love to love life and do so with kindness, compassion, and curiosity. As a nanny, I am a nurturer, space holder, guide, buddy, role model, and safety patrol! I love to see children be exactly who they are while guiding them effortlessly through their growth - good times, and hard times, in a way that is correct for them. After 14 years of nannying for families short + long term, from newborn to 16+, with as many as 5 children at once, I have come to find there is definitely an 'art' to being a nanny that I am excited to continue to create with each new family. I am an active participant in children's lives, and provide an environment where we can play, explore, learn, and BE! Whether we are playing catch outside, out at a park or playground, exploring town, sitting down to create experiential play, learning new topics together, out about in nature, helping with homework, or settling down in a bedtime routine, I do so with curiosity in my mind, and love in my heart!! I am looking for a family who truly values the beauty of being alive and who also has warmth, kindness, intelligence, and really great energy! I would flourish in a relationship with parents who value personal growth and open communication, and who has a structured but go-with-flow attitude, as well as a deep respect for one another's time, energy, and efforts in making a healthy and happy environment for everyone involved! I would love to be a part of someone's home who appreciates me as an individual, but also recognizes all of the things I can bring to their family as their nanny! It would feel fulfilling to have a family acknowledge that my background comes with a variety of skills that are both logical such as forward-thinking, organization, and time management, as well as emotional skills such as open-heartedness, impeccable intuition & awareness of surroundings, and the ability to guide each child individually and uniquely to their personality! I hope to meet you soon!
