Hello dear families! My name is Daniela. FYI My middle name is Lucero :) not sure how to change my name on my profile for my first name Daniela but it’s still me! (Not available from the 27th through the 31st of January, 2025.) I’m from Colombia and I’m 25 years old. My native language is Spanish and I am fluent in English. I also completed 4 years of university in Colombia. I was studying a major in foreign languages French and English preparing to be a teacher. I am a very responsable, loving, patient, and organized person. I love spending time with children. I was an au pair for 2.5 years. I lived with a family in Novato, CA for 2 years taking care of her lovely daughter since she was 1.5 yo and I’m still in contact with them. Lmk if you’d like to talk to them as a reference. Also lived in Chicago for 6 months with a family of two kids ( toddler boy and 7yo Girl). I have a little sister, she is eleven years younger than me so I use to take care of her since she was a baby. I was able to feed her, play with her, do her laundry and change her diaper. I’ve volunteered in the past at a rural elementary school in Colombia helping children with class activities, assessment support, classroom preparation and behavior management. At university I did tutoring for 1st semester students in French and English. I was in charge of preparing a 1 hour class with activities and quizzes. That was actually fun, I felt like a real teacher. I was also part of the dance club back in high school and college, I love dancing!! My responsibilities have included: •Driving the kids to school, museums or playgrounds. •Pick up and drop off from/to school. •Making lunch or dinner for children. •Doing different activities like crafts, painting, and dancing. I Love doing art! And of course playing children’s favorite games or sports. •Help with homework occasionally. •Tidying up the children's room or playrooms. I’m very good at organizing. Looking forward to connecting with you <3 Best, Dani

Hi! My name is Natalie and I am currently attending graduate school online. I adore kids and have over 10 years of childcare experience across nannying, daycare, mentoring youth in foster care, and as a Crisis Counselor at a mental health program for teens. I truly enjoy working with any age group, with the majority of my experience being with ages 2-17. My favorite thing about working with younger kids is getting to witness their imagination and creativity, and for older kids, I love to witness them come into their true identity as they find their place in the world. While my personal approach to childcare is inspired in part by the RIE technique (which emphasizes respect, emotional attunement, independence, and allowing children space for authentic exploration and unstructured play), I have had the opportunity to work with such diverse families that I tend to begin my approach by asking the specific family I am working with what their needs are and what they are wanting from me, as I have received very different answers to those questions over the years! However, I do value time outdoors, limited screen time, and self-directed play. In addition to childcare, I also have extensive experience caring for pets, including cats and dogs, and can hold other tasks such as household chores, errands, transportation, meal prep, homework help, and organization as needed. Families I have worked with often describe me as patient, dependable, communicative, and highly intuitive with children. I genuinely enjoy building meaningful long-term relationships with both kids and parents, and creating environments where children feel safe, respected, and free to be themselves!

Hiii! I’m Aubrey, some of my important qualifications I would say are responsible, caring, and reliable. I have a natural ability to connect with kids, keeping them engaged with fun, age-appropriate activities while also maintaining a safe environment. I am patient, attentive, and quick to respond in any situation, which helps me handle everything from everyday routines to challenges. Whether it’s helping with homework, preparing meals, or simply offering a warm and trustworthy presence, I’m dedicated to providing the best care possible. One of my experiences with children is that I have a 6 year old little sister, who I take care of all the time! I have changed diapers, made her dinner/lunch/breakfast, gave baths, taken her to school, packed lunches, put her to bed.
