Hello families,
My name is Helena and I'm a seasoned nanny who adores children. For the past 8 years, I’ve been committed to creating nurturing environments where children not only feel safe but also have room to grow and develop. At the heart of my caregiving is a profound respect for the uniqueness of each child and a strong belief in building positive connection and well-being.
Born and raised in Belgium, I can offer your children a unique multicultural experience with immersion in the French language and introduction to French cuisine. In fact, cooking is one of my passions and I can prepare delicious and tailored meals catering to your child's specific dietary needs.
Actively engaging with children is something I deeply enjoy. Be that through listening to their stories, playing games, helping them with homework or involving them in creative activities. I also relish spending time outdoors, whether it's a nature walk or garden play.
With a background in podiatry and training in first aid, I am equipped to ensure your child’s safety especially in emergency situations. Not to mention, I hold a valid driver's license and am comfortable running errands, doing light housekeeping and even handling pet care.
I am available throughout the entire work week, from mornings to mid-day (Monday through Friday). My preference would be a full-time, Live-Out arrangement, but I'm open to other job types like Nanny/Housekeeper, Nanny/Tutor, or Special Needs Provider. Max children count to work with would be three, and I have experience with children across all age brackets, from newborns to 9-year olds.
Possessing dual citizenship of Belgium and France, along with a clean police record, I’m willing to relocate and travel as needed. Furthermore, I’m a non-smoker and a proficient swimmer.
If my credentials resonate with your family's needs, let's get in touch. I'm eager to contribute to the happiness and development of your child, and I can start immediately.
Warm regards,
Helena
