Providing Merlin OR Nannies

“Hello, my name is Adriana and I am originally from Colombia. Currently, I reside in Oregon and I am actively seeking a Nanny position with a wonderful family. I have extensive experience working with infants to young adults, and I am also an animal lover. The reason I have chosen to pursue a career in Nanny profession over any other is because of my positive experience as an Au-Pair. I have been involved in various forms of childcare for more than 3 years and I genuinely enjoy what I do. In addition, I am open to handling household tasks such as laundry, vacuuming, and light cleaning. If I were to describe myself in five words, I would say: trustworthy, honest, hardworking, outgoing, and loving. Some activities that I would like to include in the daily routine for the family I care for are: walking, organizing play dates, reading, engaging in arts and crafts, dancing, and swimming. When it comes to the ideal family seeking a Nanny like me, I hope they have qualities such as: loving, caring, and respectful.”

“I am an extremely dependable individual with a strong work ethic, and I hold a special place in my heart for my niece whom I live with. The reason I have chosen to pursue a career as a Nanny, rather than any other profession, is simply because I thoroughly enjoy working with children. Having accumulated over four years of experience in childcare, I can honestly say that I have a genuine passion for what I do - I view children as precious gifts. As a Nanny, my objective is to be not only the best caregiver, but also a valuable member of the family I work for. I am more than willing to assist with housekeeping responsibilities, including helping with homework, providing transportation to and from activities, accompanying the child on doctor visits, and preparing meals. If I were to describe myself using five adjectives, I would say that I am charismatic, intelligent, honest, hardworking, and well-rounded. In terms of daily activities, I would love to incorporate visits to the library and engaging in after-school activities with the family I care for. Ideally, I am searching for a family that is loving, enjoyable, and genuinely cares about their children's well-being and overall development.”

Annette's almost twenty years of nanny experience qualified her to be a part of ABC's Merlin Nanny Agency.

“I was raised in London and relocated to America in 1987. Currently, I am married with a daughter. For the past 18 years, I have worked as a nanny, a profession that allows me to make a positive impact on children's lives one at a time. I genuinely enjoy being in the company of children and possess qualities such as calmness, organization, conscientiousness, and the ability to take initiative. The reason I chose to pursue a career as a nanny over any other profession is because I appreciate the opportunity to provide individualized attention and care to the child and family I work for. I believe that children are precious gifts who deserve to be loved and nurtured. As a nanny, my objective is always to do my best and create a stable, loving environment for the child in my care, while also making the parents' lives a bit easier. I am willing to assist with household chores such as laundry, maintaining tidiness in bedrooms and play areas, meal preparation, and cleaning dishes. In terms of activities, I would love to incorporate elements like story time, outings, reading books, arranging play dates, and visiting the playground into the family's daily routine. In regards to the ideal family seeking a nanny like myself, I hope they value honesty and effective communication, being open to discussing any concerns they may have. Thank you for your time!”

“I am an enthusiastic, dependable, and nurturing individual who has a genuine love for children. I thrive in high-energy environments and come from a close-knit family that places great importance on children. As the youngest of three siblings, I have been caring for my nine-month-old nephew since his birth in November 2008. Although I briefly pursued a corporate career, I quickly realized that my true passion lies in working with children. My ultimate goal is to become an exceptional caretaker and establish a strong bond with a wonderful child, whom I can teach and care for to the best of my abilities. What sets the Nanny profession apart for me is the opportunity to immerse myself in the world of children and provide them with valuable lessons and support. Growing up, I was fortunate to have loving siblings and a strong support system, and now I long for the chance to be that person for someone else. With over 10 years of childcare experience, I can confidently say that I am deeply passionate about what I do. I believe that children are extraordinary beings, and as a Nanny, I strive to enrich their lives, help them appreciate their unique qualities, and facilitate their learning and growth. In addition to providing childcare, I am more than willing to assist with household tasks like laundry, meal preparation, and tutoring. My daily routine with the family I work with would incorporate activities centered around learning, outdoor play, and any other priorities that are important to the parents. Ideally, the perfect family for me would be loving, caring, and welcoming, allowing me to fully integrate into their family unit and offer my support in any way possible. I am here not only to serve as a role model for their children but also as a friend to the entire family. My main desire is to be of help in every possible aspect!”
