About Wafa

Experience: 12 yrs

Nurturing young minds is more than a job for me; it's a passion. For the past 12 years, I've had the joy of caring for children aged newborn to 11, creating a safe and stimulating environment where they can thrive. My experience includes positive babysitting roles, which motivated me to provide reliable care for families. I hold a college degree and am certified in CPR and First Aid. I'm patient, friendly, and committed to open communication, offering daily reports, verbal updates, and texts to keep you informed. I happily follow your household rules and love engaging children with outdoor games, puzzles, and educational activities. I'm comfortable caring for up to three children. I speak both Arabic and English. I'm excited to bring my experience and dedication to your family, creating a fun and supportive space for your little ones to learn and grow.

Wafa is my former coworker and has been working in the early childhood education field for over 15 years. Throughout her career, she has shown an incredible dedication to helping children learn, grow, and reach their full potential. Her passion for early childhood development truly shines through in everything she does. Wafa has a natural ability to connect with children and make them feel comfortable, valued, and confident. She creates a warm and nurturing environment where children feel safe to explore, ask questions, and express themselves. Her patience, creativity, and gentle approach allow her to guide each child at their own pace, always celebrating their unique strengths and milestones. She is not only loved by the children but also respected and appreciated by parents and colleagues for her professionalism, reliability, and deep understanding of child development. Wafa goes above and beyond to make learning meaningful and joyful, and she is truly an inspiration to those who have the privilege of working with her.
