Markella
Brief info
My name is Markella, 28 years old with a degree in Primary Education and a masters in Special Needs.
From a young age, I enjoyed caring for my younger siblings and spending quality time with them through creative and recreational activities. I spent many of my summers at children’s camps, where we played, danced, created, and engaged in a wide variety of experiences for all ages.
I have attended numerous seminars focused on theatre-based learning (dramatic play) and messy play, and I am especially passionate about inclusive education. Since my teenage years, I have been actively involved in volunteering for individuals with special needs, participating in performance and dance therapy projects as a contemporary dancer.
For the past eight years, I have worked closely with children—both as a nanny and a private tutor. As a qualified teacher, I specialize in supporting children with learning difficulties by providing tailored lessons and intervention activities. As a nanny, I aim to make every moment enjoyable while supporting each child’s growth and confidence.
I take pride in identifying each child’s interests and potential talents, and I love exploring these areas through play, creativity, and learning. My priority is always to form a trusting bond with the children I care for so they feel safe, supported, and happy.
I regularly attend seminars and training focused on child development, psychology, and creative activities, and I stay in touch with many of the children I’ve supported to follow their progress over time.
I truly love what I do and bring with me patience, enthusiasm, and many ideas to help children thrive in a joyful and safe environment.
““Markella was excellent with our two year old son. You could tell she has a ton of expertise with children, from her teaching. She was able to read my child's personality very well and engage him in fun activities he loved. Markella is very responsible and a great communicator. She is pleasant to be around and is someone we now consider a friend. I highly recommend her for any childcare needs”.
“She has done an excellent job in the classroom, as she guided my son and provided solutions to any issues that might arise during the day. She has helped him improve his social and teamwork skills, she was resourceful, alert and discreet, and she helped him function and participate in the classroom as an integrated member of that community. “
“Markella was our holiday nanny for a summer in Greece. She was always dutiful and trustworthy, and never made my daughter feel bored. On the contrary, Markella had new ideas every day to make the time creative and exciting.”
“She is a trustworthy, devoted, friendly and reliable person willing to work.”
