My name is Nina, and I am from Sacramento, CA. I am an alumni Psychology major from Menlo College. While attending Menlo College, I also played on the collegiate women's soccer team. I love outdoors and athletics. I currently work as a recruiting coordinator at Menlo College, but before that I worked at SJND High School as an Academic Success Coach. Working at SJND has helped me learn so many new things contributing to my career as a caregiver. I have a true passion for working with children and I am so excited about the opportunity to meet new families and create a relationship with kids. I hope to hear from you :)
“Nina was amazing. Can’t wait yo have her back! ”
Hello! My name is Erica and I've been watching children beginning with my little sister when I was in jr. high. Since then I have babysat children of all ages. I have worked at preschools and have taken classes in early childhood development. I taught my own class of 3 year olds, but have served as an aide in classes ranging from infant to 5 years. I am a fully licensed cosmetologist & work as a hairstylist at a salon in Berkeley. I love children of all ages and they tend to love me. I'm a child at heart and enjoy singing, art, going outside, and just having fun. In my free time, I enjoy reading, watching movies and tv shows, exploring the outdoors, and cooking.
“Erica is wonderful! She is very easy to communicate with, arrived on time, and put my 8 month old who has some separation anxiety at ease. We look forward to working with her again in the future! ”
Hello, My name is Lisa, and I recently graduated from U.C. Berkeley. Over the past two years, I've had the pleasure of working with several families, caring for kids between the ages of 2 and 10. I'm currently a nanny for a 7-year-old and a 4-year-old, and have been with their family for the last two years. I genuinely love working with kids—their positivity, creativity, and boundless energy make my time with them both fun and rewarding. I look forward to the opportunity to work with you and your family. Please feel free to reach out if you have any questions!
