Find an after school nanny in Port Costa, CA

I love children and children love me. I’m very lucky and blessed, children are enchanted with me and we naturally delight in each others company. I am a highly trained caregiver in providing for your child’s mental, emotional and physical needs. I bring over 25 years of practical experience with children, from infancy through teenage-hood. I’ve had unique opportunities of working with children ranging in needs from being deemed extremely gifted to being a patient in a lock-down psychiatric ward. It’s important to me that children are given the opportunity to and learn to cultivate their ability to: thrive, be resilient, express themselves fully, develop high levels of self-efficacy & self-worth, love and be loved. I love to play! I’m crafty, artsy, musical, adventurous, active, happy and have great boundaries! Children naturally love me, this makes my job very easy. 😍 (I’ve also worked as a private chef, caterer, and personal assistant.) Some of my experiences with children include: -2 summers of teaching K-5 Science and Art for summer school, 4 yrs of substitute teaching, 2.5 years teaching pre-school for 3'-4's, 2yrs as aTiger Cub 'mom', 2 years I ran a Children's Crisis Shelter, 4 yrs I worked in a lock-down Psychiatric Children's Facility. I was a licensed Respite Care Provider and Foster Parent. I contracted with Child Protective Services for 5 years. I created a program working with Autistic boys (1 yr), for 4.5 years I was a Family Builder Specialist and Program Manager, for 2 yrs I was a Child Developmental and Behavioralist Specialist. I have been a temporary, part time, and full time nanny and sitter for over 20years. Over Covid lockdown I ran a private school and course for grades k&1. I volunteer with Big Brothers and Big Sisters, Girl Scouts, Boy Scouts and Adventure Scouts, food kitchens, Women’s DV shelters... Using my expertise in emotions, I teach classes for parents (and also for children) on empowerment, emotional development and intelligence, transformation, and self efficacy/esteem. ** Please note that I have cancellation policy - if you cancel a booking with in a week of, I charge a $50 cancellation fee or 50% of the booking, whichever is higher.

Hi parents, My name is Vlada, and I’m pursuing a degree in Child Development and Psychology. I’m originally from Russia and I’ve been living here for 10 years with my family. I started to work with kids when I was 14 years old. I started by taking care of my youngest siblings and then volunteering. During my college years thus far I have taken many opportunities to gain more experience with children. I have been working at Monitissori daycare for 4 + years and I also have experience working with special needs. As of right now I have my child development permit, first aide certificate and now working towards my teaching permit. My philosophy is that all children of all abilities should be able to grow up where their social, emotional, and educational needs are met. I love being able to work with kids and watch them grow. If you need any references please let me know, I’ll be happy to provide them :)

Hey there! I graduated UC Berkeley with a Literature BA in 2017 and I’m currently getting my masters in Business. I have been babysitting since high school until right about when Covid came along. Since then i've been blessed with three nephews and nieces that are all under the age of four and do the occasional date night babysitting for a few different families currently (happy to share references). I love spending time with little ones and am really adaptable to your parenting style. I have experience from new borns to 14 year olds. I love arts and crafts, water parks, making bomb banana breads and reading! I was raised in Portugal for a good part of my life so i am happy to talk to your little one in either portuguese or even spanish if you'd like.
