Erica's experience working in a Bellevue After School Program truly shines through as a professional Nanny!

“I come from a very tight knit family. I have been a nanny for 11 years. I am a self-motivated, diligent worker, honest, dependable and great with children. I have worked with newborns as well as toddlers. I’m responsible and very passionate about children. If I was asked to describe in one sentence the reason I have chosen to be in the nanny profession over any other, it would have to be because of my love for children. I have been serving in some form of childcare for many years and can honestly say I LOVE what I do! My goal as a nanny is to obtain a position as a child care provider in a Bellevue After School Program where I can utilize my talents, training and skills. I am willing to do housekeeping that includes dishes, children’s laundry, cooking and keeping the areas tidy and clean. If I had to describe myself in five adjectives I would say that I am compassionate, proactive, trustworthy, flexible, and reliable. Activities that I would like to incorporate in the daily plan for the family I care for would depend on the age group. If they were toddlers I would probably look into story time at library, puzzles, reading, outdoor activities, and play dates. If asked to describe the perfect family seeking a nanny like me, I would hope they would be honesty, caring and communicate well.”

“Perhaps the best way I can tell you how great Erica is, is by telling you how much our daughter Lillian loved spending time with her. Lillian was just 5 months old when Erica started caring for her. Immediately they bonded with each other and I couldn’t have chosen such a great caregiver. Now that she is 2 years old she gets over joyed and her face lights up when she sees Erica. Erica is very resourceful and has provided great advice for Nutrition and sleep. Erica took Lillian to the park, zoo story time at the library, please touch museums, walks and many other outings. Erica helped our daughter develop social skills, she read to her, taught her how to count, sang songs and most of all they had fun fun fun!! They really had something special and enjoyed one another’s company. Erica always went above and beyond the call of duty for a Bellevue After School Program and she always looked for ways to be helpful. Erica is a kind and loving caregiver and it shows in Lillian!”

“Erica worked for me as a nanny for close to a year. Erica is an extremely pleasant and reliable person with whom I had complete trust to care for my daughter. She was always on time and never failed to complete a task or assignment. She was also highly efficient in managing the home. She cleaned and cooked very well and always did more than asked. She showed initiative by organizing my household and making sure that supplies and food were always available. I felt comfortable giving Erica my bank card and PIN so that she may make purchases on my behalf. She is always polite and very respectful, and I have no hesitation giving her my highest recommendation for a Bellevue After School Program.”

“Erica has worked as a nanny for my family for the past three years, and I've known her for five years. I am very sad to see her leave. She has taken excellent care of my children, now five and three years old. Erica has been an excellent Bellevue After School Program employee. She is prompt, flexible, proactive, organized, trustworthy and willing to go above and beyond what the job calls for when necessary. My husband and I have jobs that are somewhat unpredictable, and Erica was always able to cover in a pinch. If weekend babysitting was needed, she was often available as well. When my children were smaller, she was very good at keeping them on a schedule. As they grew, she took them to the library, music, gym class, and the playground. She now takes them to and from school and activities, helps with homework, and continues to keep things interesting for them after school. While the children are at school, she helps me with shopping and errands. Their laundry is always done, and the play areas and rooms are always kept neat. My children love her and have thrived under her care. Erica is a wonderful nanny and I give her my highest recommendation. She has become part of the family, and certainly a very important person in our children's life.”

“Writing a Bellevue After School Program reference letter for Erica is a bittersweet experience for me. I have so many wonderful things to say about what Erica has done for my children and my family. that It is very difficult for me to imagine her moving on to another family. On that note, let me elaborate on what Erica has provided our household during her two years with us. Erica She has provided a warm and happy environment for our two young children. Both of my children smile when she walks in the room and my older son will inquire of her whereabouts on weekends and vacations. I know they enjoy her company and miss her when they do not see her for some time. She has been effective in getting them into a routine and on a schedule, while providing them with a sense of stability. She has also taken initiative by making suggestions and recommendations on what the children might need or enjoy. For example, she introduced one of our children to story hour at the local public library when he was 6 months old and has continued to take him since then. On several occasions, I have asked her for some advice on how to handle a problem I encountered with one of my children. She has years of experience and is very much at ease with children. Erica has also helped us with some household duties and has been a key in keeping our household running smoothly. We are comfortable with giving her a credit card to use when purchasing items for us. The most valuable thing that Erica has given me is peace of mind when I am away from my children, at work. I know that my children are being well cared for by a very kind and patient woman who has become a very important part of our family life. I can unequivocally recommend her to a family in need of child care”. If you have any questions I would be happy to discuss this further.”

“Erica served as our son's nanny for over a year. During that time our 3 year old son was very comfortable with her and indeed saw her as a member of our family. We have found Erica to be a very reliable, confident, and a kind person as well as a competent Bellevue After School Program care giver. We would recommend her without reservation for any position involving the care or support of loved ones.”

“Erica was a nanny to our 20 month old little girl for approximately a year and two months. Unfortunately, a change in our family schedule necessitates us to find a live-in nanny for our girl. We would love for Erica to stay with us as a live-in, but that is not a serious option given our home's space limitations and her need to care for her son. Erica has in all respects been a great child care professional and we wish we could have kept her. She is gifted at caring for our child: careful, gentle, clean, attentive, responsible, trustworthy, educational, energetic, and flexible. Our child is delightful, happy, well adjusted, and on pace educationally, and much of that we attribute to Erica's care. We recommend her unconditionally as a Bellevue After School Program professional.”

“Erica has been such a big help to me when I first became a mother, and even more after my child developed medical conditions. She has taken good care of my child and has been a great help when I have to be at work. She is always willing to help and is patient and kind. I would highly recommend Erica as a Bellevue After School Program professional!”
