Hello families,
My name is Raissa, and I am 31 years old. I have been working with children since 2018 when I was living in Australia. I have extensive experience with kids of all ages, especially from 5 months to 3 years old. I also worked as an Au Pair for a busy family for 2 years, helping them before and after school by getting the kids ready, preparing healthy meals, handling drop-offs and pick-ups, and managing bath and dinner time. I love spending time playing with and taking care of children.
I am also very good at cooking. In my last three nanny positions, I worked with families for several months, caring for little ones between 6 months and 1.5 years old.
Currently, I'm looking for casual nannying jobs and evening babysitting opportunities in my free time. I am an observant, careful, and caring person with good references and a DBS check. If you like my profile, please send me a message. I look forward to hearing from you.
