I am a caring, supportive and experienced nanny named Retchell May, resident of Montreal. My passion is providing a secure, stimulating and love-filled environment for children, with over 6 years of professional childcare experience under my belt. To enhance my skills and knowledge further, I have even completed training in child development and early childhood education and hold a Master's degree in the same field. Safety is my primary concern and I am certified in CPR/first aid to ensure I am fully prepared in case of emergencies. In my career, I have gained extensive experience working with children between the ages of 1-2 and 6-9 years, and I am well-equipped to manage up to two children at a time. I am a non-smoker with a driver license. I have a vehicle of my own that I can put into service when required to transport children. I'm perfectly willing to contribute to light housekeeping, iron children's clothing, and help with homework in addition to my regular childcare duties. I am thrilled at the thought of creating a positive and trusting relationship with both parents and children. Working as a woman who is a mother herself, it is second nature to me to connect and interact with children at a level they comprehend and relate to. I am searching for a live-out, part-time nanny position, and can double as a tutor if needed. I can start to support a new family immediately with flexible availability in the evenings from Monday to Thursday, and during the middle of the day on Fridays. I ensure you that you can rely on my professionalism as I have passed a police check. Fluent in both English and Tagalog, I am excited about the possibility of bringing my skills and dedication to another loving home.

As a nanny specializing in newborn care and beyond, I’ve provided comprehensive support to families during the critical early stages of a child’s life. This includes assisting with feeding, establishing sleep routines, diaper changing, and ensuring a safe environment for the baby’s development. As the child grows, I’ve facilitated age-appropriate activities to stimulate their senses and promote cognitive development. I’ve also supported parents with guidance on breastfeeding, introducing solids, and navigating developmental milestones. Building a strong bond with the baby and providing reassurance to parents during this transformative time has been a deeply rewarding aspect of my experience as a nanny.
