Hello, I am Mina, a bilingual nanny with over 3 years of experience, fluent in both English and French. Born in Quebec/Montréal, I am intrinsically tied to my Canadian roots. I currently reside in Ottawa and I am available full-time, throughout the week, from morning till night, ready to start work from 4th June, 2024. My strongest characteristic as a nanny is my ability to connect with children in an engaging and educational manner. Being comfortable dealing with children of all ages, from newborns to those over 10 years old, I am able to juggle up to three children at once, ensuring their safety and satisfaction, while also making learning a fun process. My education in biotechnology and ecology has fostered my ability to teach about the environment, and I can help children to understand the world around them better while balancing playtime and learning. I work logically and efficiently, with excellent time management skills honed from my experience in the cooking industry. This allows me to perform various duties such as cooking, light housekeeping, running errands, grocery shopping, laundry, pet care and a few more. Completing my First Aid and CPR Training have equipped me with the skills to react efficiently to any emergencies, and my past experience as a lifeguard and swimming instructor ensures that your children are always safe. All in all, I am comfortable and experienced in creating a well-structured day for children according to their needs and priorities. Cherishing the time I spent working at summer camps, I am proficient at planning activities that both educate and entertain a young mind. Besides, I am versatile at adhering to special dietary rules tailoring to the individual preferences and well-being of your children. I am also open to working with children with disabilities, ensuring the individual needs of every child in my care are met. I am looking forward to joining your family, bolstering the growth of your children while also making fun memories with them. If you are in need of a responsible, caring, and capable nanny or babysitter, I would be delighted to step in that role.

I have babysat from a young age for about 3 years. During the summer I would stay-in the kid's house and ensure a safe and joyful routine for the children, during the school year I would be available if the parents needed to leave the house for a couple of hours on the weekends. I then worked in a summer camp for 2 years and loved working with children from 3-12 years old. During those years I was also a lifeguard and swimming instructor for kids from 6 month to 10 years old. I have my first aid certification and a valide driver's license.

I studied in cooking at first and am now back to school in biotechnology and ecology. I did get a babysitter certification when I first started high school, but other than that I don't have other child education certificates. I am very competent at organizing fun and educative activities in which everybody is able to participate and am confident that my cooking skills will allow me to work with any food restriction/allergies.
