Anallely $25 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 2 families in Rutherford, CA
I'm a 27 year old nanny who speaks both Spanish and English fluently. My personality is cheerful, honest, and caring, which is why I love working with kids. It's such a rewarding job to see their personalities develop over time. I believe that education is crucial at a young age, so I strive to provide a strong foundation for them to learn and grow. I started working with kids when I was 14 years old, caring for multiple children through my parents' church. I planned activities and lectures for a group of about 8 kids, and I enjoyed every second of it. That experience led me to pursue this career. One thing you should know about me is that I'm flexible and understanding. If there's something I do that you don't agree with, I'm quick to adjust and make sure everything goes smoothly. I don't want to take over; I want to work alongside you as the parent and follow your parenting style. I'm also available on short notice, so you can count on me to be there when you need me.

Eileen $30 per hour for 1 child
A bit about me: I am a preschool teacher at Good Shepherd Lutheran School in Novato, and have been working there for 4 years now. I work daily with children ages 2-4. I am graduating this spring with an AS degree in Child and Family Studies from Napa Valley College, and I am CPR and First Aid certified. Prior to teaching, I also have several years of experience babysitting children ages 0-10, including babysitting for individual families, and providing childcare for large groups of children at events. I love working with children and am fascinated by the process of their development! Their little minds are absolutely intriguing. I love to play and experiment alongside them, and my approach to discipline and teaching is very much based in authoritative parenting style (aka gentle parenting) and play-based learning. If you have any questions, please ask! I know how important it is to leave your little ones with someone you can trust!

I’m a 30 year old Irish, Mathematics and Science Teacher. I have 8 years full time teaching experience and I have worked with children most of my life. I come from a large family, of which I am the eldest and so helped my parents with my 4 younger siblings. I was a member of the Red Cross at home and I am comfortable with First Aid and CPR. I am a very active person and love to be busy and outdoors. I’m a punctual and professional person yet caring and loving. I am currently employed as a full time teacher in a local Catholic school. I can provide references if required. Looking forward to meeting you and your kids!
