Nanny in Winnipeg, Manitoba

Dear Family, My name is Frauleine Velasquez. I was born and raised in a small town in the Philippines. I studied Bachelor of Science in Nursing and is a registered nurse in my home country. Accepting me as your caregiver will help me realize my true passion of caring. I believe that my sincere desire to help others coupled with my academic background and skill set makes me a perfect candidate for the job. I have completed 2295 hours of internship with hands-on experience in nursing practice and caring for individuals in all age groups to accredited hospitals and agencies back in college. I am trained in caregiving essentials for physical care like bathing and personal hygiene, dressing assistance, meal and feeding support, transfers, independent living facilitation and other basic quality-of-life health care needs for all ages and I am trained in First Aid and CPR as part of my college curriculum. Also, I have a volunteer work experience as a nurse in the Philippines back in 2014. It was only for a brief period, but back then I was assigned in the medical ward of the hospital handling sick patients with different underlying medical conditions. I am particularly fond of children. I remember back in nursing school, we had an internship in a child care center. We basically took care of infants, toddlers and grade-schoolers while their parents were at work. We fed them, changed their diapers, played with them and provided educational activities for them. Also, I have been babysitting once in a while. The most recent one is my cousin, now 2 years old, who I take care whenever his parents have errands to do especially now that they are expecting another baby. During these experiences, I realized that I am deeply interested with child care. The ability to help shape a young mind and allow them to blossom gives me so much joy. Their smiles and their giggles make me forget the stresses of life and because I'm a big kid at heart, I enjoy revisiting the magic of childhood through their experiences. When asked about my personality, I never quite know how to answer it. I like to look at myself as a genuine, thoughtful lady. I am optimistic about life that is why I smile a lot. I am a happy person. I’m a hard worker. I believe nothing is ever handed to you so you have to go get it. I am a giver. I care so much about others more than myself. Lastly, I was always thought to put your heart in everything you do. With all these said I feel like I am a great candidate for being your family’s caregiver as I have valid real life experiences, relevant education and training about the responsibilities of this position and I believe I would be of great help to your family. Sincerely, Frauleine Velasquez
