About Saranda

Experience: 3 yrs

COVID-19 vaccinated

Hi! My name is Saranda but the littles call me Ms. Randa! I have 3 years of experience in early childhood education. I worked at The Goddard School as an assistant teacher and floater from June 2021-August 2023 where I worked with all ages from 3 mo. to 12 y/o, though mainly worked with 2-5-year-olds. In the beginning of August 2023 I became a full-time nanny for a 2-year-old! I love working with children and helping them form healthy, fundamental emotional strategies by building a safe, creative, and nurturing environment. I'm currently available on weekends and in the evenings! The family that I currently nanny for are a military family and will be stationed in another state by June 2024. I am looking for another family in need of a full time, long term nanny to have a position lined up for when that time comes. I would prefer a 40hr work week, but open to discussing further! Outside of childcare I love to surround myself with literature, plants, nature, and exercising!

My 2 year old absolutely adores Ms. Randa. When Ms. Randa started as our nanny in August we were all trying to figure out a structure and comfort level since she was out first nanny, but my little one loved Ms. Randa from the beginning. It took me a little by surprise when she let Ms. Randa pick her up and carry her from room to room almost instantly which she usually doesn't do with people she just meets. Over the past 9 months Ms. Randa has basically become another member of our family. She is instantly greeted with a hug and excitement every time she walks through the door from our 2 year old. We have gone on family trips together with Ms. Randa helping us deal with the hectic ordeal traveling with a toddler can entail with made the process easier and more enjoyable for everyone. When Ms. Randa started with us, my 2 year old was barely talking but now with Ms. Randa's help she is talking nonstop. She has helped her with learning her colors, alphabet, counting to 20, animals, and so much more. It has been such an amazing time having Ms. Randa with us especially as a work from home mom, I know my little is being so well taken care of. I wish our time with her didn't have to come to an end since we have become such a great support team not just for our little but for each other. We will definitely miss her and will always stay in contact with her!
