My name is Marlena. I am a 35 year old nanny with six and a half year experience. I have a kind-hearted, patient and nurturing personality. I am very responsible and dependable, but also fun and energetic. I enjoy being surrounded by children because of their imagination, innocence, and creativity. I love interacting with children, playing games and doing outdoor activities with them. My hobbies include reading psychology books, listening to music, dancing and meeting people of different cultures. I also love animals. I'm confident I can be a great nanny to your child/children if you give me a chance to show you.
