Experience: 10 yrs
As a nursing student and a mother myself, I offer a unique blend of professional health knowledge and first-hand parenting experience that sets me apart as a caregiver. My experiences entail: Clinical & Safety Expertise: My nursing background provides me with advanced training in infant health, emergency preparedness, and the ability to stay calm under pressure. Personal Insight as a Mom: Having raised my own child, I deeply understand the nuances of parenting, from maintaining sensitive routines to providing the emotional support that both babies and parents need. Diverse Caregiving History: I spent two years working with children in Washington before transitioning into dedicated in-home care for seniors and children with learning difficulties. Most recently, I have continued my work through individual family placements and nanny sharing. I am passionate about creating a safe, nurturing environment where your little one can thrive.
I had the pleasure to meet with Mthikazi through a family member when I was in desperate need of help with my then 2 year old daughter. When I expressed my feelings of frustration she was so calm, attentive and reassuring, she has a natural way of making you feel at ease. She agreed to move in with us for convenience and she and my daughter had an immediate bond. It made me feel that my child was in safe hands. She started potty training her the next day, and she was off diapers in 2 months. She would sing to her all the time and soon she was learning nursery rhymes and counting to me every night. There is so much I can say but there's not enough words to describe how grateful I am to Mthikazi for the foundation she laid for my child. She is now 7 and they still video call each other.
