About Laura

Experience: 5 yrs

Hi! This is Laura. I have 5 years of experience, I'm 25 years old, I'm from Colombia, Spanish is my native language. I was au pair in Massachusetts for two years taking care of 3 wonderfull kids. I am comfortable with pets, not smoker, I'm CPR certificated and I have good references. My approach to childcare is patient, calm, and creative. I believe in fostering a nurturing environment where children feel safe and can explore their imaginations. I'm also very comfortable enforcing household rules and ensuring the safety and well-being of the children in my care. Please, don't hesitate to contact me for more information.

We are heartbroken to part ways with Laura, and we cannot recommend her highly enough. She cared for our daughter starting when she was 6 months old, and the only reason we are letting her go is due to a sudden change in our family situation (my husband recently left his job). If we could keep her, we would do so in a heartbeat. From day one, Laura was an absolute blessing. Here is what makes her so special: Exceptional Infant Care: Laura has a deep understanding of infant development. At 5months old, our daughter was hitting new milestones daily, and Laura was incredibly patient, attentive, and nurturing. She perfectly managed nap schedules, feeding routines, and age-appropriate play. Trustworthy & Professional: Laura was consistently punctual, reliable, and communicative. She gave us photos and updates throughout the day, which gave us immense peace of mind as working parents. Warm and Loving Energy: Laura didn’t just "babysit"—she truly bonded with our daughter. Her warmth, positive energy, and genuine affection made our daughter's face light up every time she walked through the door. Any family would be incredibly lucky to have Laura. She is a rare find—professional, loving, and deeply skilled. We are more than happy to provide a verbal reference or answer any questions for serious families looking to hire her. Please ask Laura for our contact information.
