Hello! My name is Hazyel, a pet-friendly, well-rounded experienced nanny and current nursing student from Bradford. My seven-year journey in this vibrant field includes working with children from diverse backgrounds, including those with special needs like autism, down-syndrome, anxiety disorder, and ADHD, contributing to my rich experience and high adaptability. Being part of a large family of 10 siblings, I understand the dynamic needs of a big family and the uniqueness of each child. I am not a parent, but my experiences in the family and professional environment have given me an extensive understanding and appreciation for the challenges and joys of parenthood. I am a patient, caring, outgoing, reliable, and respectful individual, dedicated to creating a trusting and safe atmosphere for the children while ensuring the smooth running of household activities. I strongly believe that every child has a unique set of needs, which I strive to cater to with personalized attention and care. I thrive in settings where adaptability, resourcefulness, and quick thinking are required, evidenced by instances where I managed unexpected situations effectively and calmly. I take pride in my multilingualism capability, speaking English, Spanish, Portuguese, French, American Sign Language fluently, and proficiency in Italian. As a person of Angolan descent, I offer cultural competency, connecting with various families and providing a diversified experience to children under my care. My toddler-friendly hobbies include walking, baking, doing arts and crafts, watching movies, dancing, puzzles, and engaging in creative and imagination-sparking activities. As someone who enjoys learning new languages, reading, and spending quality time with family and friends, I strive to ensure the children under my care have the opportunity to explore their interests and learn new things. My professional competencies include first aid, Basic Life Saving at the health care level C, and a level 2 vulnerable sector check. I am fully vaccinated against COVID-19 and up-to-date with all other vaccines as well- rest assured, your children will be in the best of care! In terms of availability, I am flexible, willing to work both part-time and full-time, preferably in a 'Live-Out' arrangement. I am ready to start immediately and is available most of the week, including mornings, afternoons, and evenings. However, I am very flexible so feel free to reach out anyways if you are outside this availability! My duties would encompass cooking, light housekeeping, preparing meals for kids, helping with homework, and more. I am comfortable working with four or more children ranging from newborns to over 10 years old. In line with my long-term goal of becoming a pediatric Nurse at SickKids, my passion for making children feel better and guiding them to thrive drives me towards constant professional growth. Joining a family where I can utilize my skills while providing a safe and supportive environment for children would be an ideal fit for me.
