I’m a caregiver and teacher who brings the vibe of a camp counselor and friend. I’m the eldest daughter of an immigrant family and have been working with children since the age of 7. I am comfortable bringing out my own inner child and creating a beautiful mix of learning and play. This year, I put my teaching skills to the test in the classroom and explored subbing for grades K-5. When I care for your children, I will come with books and games suited for their age level. All other details can be personalized when we meet. Let’s have an amazing day together.
About Me Hi! My name is Atidtiya, and I have over three years of hands-on childcare experience in the United States, along with additional nursery experience from back home. I was an au pair for two wonderful families — one year in Connecticut caring for three children, and one year in San Francisco caring for two children. Before becoming an au pair, I worked as an assistant in a child nursery for 1.5 years, supporting early childhood development and daily routines. I am gentle, patient, and reliable, and I always try to make children feel safe, understood, and engaged. I’m comfortable with a wide range of ages, from babies and toddlers to school-aged kids, and I’m experienced with everything from creative play to bedtime routines and meal prep. Now that I’ve completed my au pair program, I’m open to babysitting opportunities and look forward to meeting new families in the area.

My focus is caring for infants I have plenty of childcare experience and engage in enriching activities with children of all ages to help them meet their developmental milestones. I am vaccinated for covid, Tdap, influenza, etc. I am first aid and CPR certified, and a non-smoker. I own my own car and a perfect driving record. I’m happy to consent to a background and driving record check. I pride myself in being reliable, loyal, empathetic and commutative. I have recent experience as a nanny for multiples, premies, infants, toddlers, and school aged children. I would be happy to set up a phone, FaceTime, or in person interview to further discuss my qualifications and provide my stellar references. I look forward to speaking with you :) Here is a letter of recommendation: “Anjali S. For any families looking for a nanny, sharing a recommendation for our nanny Laurel who has been caring for our twin girls who are 5 months old. Laurel has a ton of experience caring for children and was really great with our girls. She is extremely organized and on top of things which made communication very easy! She is very in tune on what milestones your baby is working towards and incorporates into their play time. Above all, I always felt at ease with our daughters under her care as she takes safety very seriously. She was a very calm and loving presence for our daughters and would highly recommend her to a family looking for child care.”
“Laurel is absolutely a GEM!! She jumped right into playing with our active, vehicle loving 2-year-old, and he absolutely adored her. It was our first time having anyone over to care for him that is not family and we were nervous, but Laurel put us at ease right away with her intuitive, gentle nature and deep care and engagement with our son. We are so grateful we found Laurel, she is one-of-a-kind a wonderful at being with children.”
