Hi families! I’m Emily 👋🏼 A loving, experienced nanny with 10+ years in childcare. I began babysitting in college, earned my Bachelor’s in English, and went on to teach Pre-K and elementary students in Spain. 🇪🇸 Later, I pursued my Master’s in Early Childhood Education with a focus on Special Education. I’ve worked in classrooms ranging from Pre-K through 8th grade and am comfortable caring for children of all ages and abilities. I prioritize creating a calm, nurturing environment that supports kids’ social-emotional development and curiosity. Some of my favorite activities include reading, yoga, outdoor play, crafts, and long walks! I speak conversational Spanish and would be happy to practice with your little ones. I’m CPR certified, have my own car, and am great with pets. Since I teach during the school year, I’m currently available for seasonal summer care, with ongoing availability for evening and weekend babysitting. I’d love to build a warm, trusted relationship with your family! Warmly, Emily 🤍

Hi, my name is Shaina. I began my career working with people with disabilities before transitioning into childcare fourteen years ago. Since then, I have worked as a camp counselor and an after-school teacher with the YMCA, as well as a substitute teacher with the San Francisco Unified School District. I currently specialize in early childhood development, helping infants and toddlers reach important developmental milestones through age-appropriate activities, attentive care, and nurturing support. I create engaging opportunities that encourage language development, fine and gross motor skills, cognitive growth, emotional regulation, and social development. By incorporating purposeful play, reading, music, sensory exploration, and consistent routines into each day, I help children build confidence, independence, and a lifelong love of learning. My approach to childcare goes beyond meeting a child’s daily needs. I strive to raise children with strong emotional intelligence, helping them understand and manage their emotions, confidently verbalize their wants and needs, and develop the skills they need to succeed in school. I believe children thrive when they feel heard, supported, and empowered to express themselves. In addition to nannying, I love babysitting in my spare time because it allows me to continue expanding my childcare experience while connecting with children of all ages. I enjoy planning fun age-appropriate activities, playing games, making crafts, reading stories, and dancing. I absolutely love what I do and take every opportunity to advance my experience while giving attentive loving care to the children I work with. Over the years, I have completed extensive training in teaching, childcare, STEM, HEPA, CPR, CAP, and CPI. I am currently seeking part-time nannying and date-night opportunities. Someday, I hope to open my own daycare; for now, I am continuing to broaden my experience and make a positive difference in the lives of the children and families I work with.
