Meet Serena

  • Comfortable with pets

I am a mature, responsible, reliable and cheerful person with excellent childcare and interpersonal skills, and extensive experience as both a live-in and live-out nanny. I simply love children, love caring for them and find them fascinating, and I am seeking further nanny work to continue doing what I love and broadening my experience. I am committed to providing a safe, nurturing environment for your children in my care. I take safety extremely seriously, and am trained and certified in childhood first-aid and CPR. I am also a long-standing member of the National American Association of Child Care Providers. I have 26 years as a professional nanny in caring for young children, especially babies, is rewarding but sometimes challenging. Over the years, I have developed special techniques that prove useful in calming young babies, including the most restless ones. I am in favor of a structured day as it gives Read more children an opportunity to follow a schedule and to learn and understand discipline. I believe in creating a positive, happy environment for children, one in which they feel protected and can thrive in. Taking care of children has been my passion. Allowing children to grow, explore and learn is a rewarding experience that keeps me excited as I continue caring for children of all ages. I believe that children should be given the ability to become independent individuals by setting limits with positive discipline, praise, and encouragement. I enjoy being surrounded by children because of their imagination, innocence, and creativity. Thanks for your time! Serena C.
