Hello! My name is Nati :) I am an experienced childcare teacher who brings energy, warmth, and imagination to every family I work with. I’m currently a full time preschool teacher— I work primarily with 2’s and 3’s. Thus, I’m thoroughly experienced with multiple children at once!I’m also experienced with infants and older children! I'm a Yale student taking a gap year, which gives me the unique opportunity to dedicate my time to doing what I love most—working with kids! I am very artsy, love to read with kids, and am super-super playful!I believe in fostering a positive and supportive environment where children feel safe, valued, and encouraged to grow. My time at Yale has also taught me the importance of curiosity and critical thinking—qualities I aim to inspire in the kids I work with. My other experience: I grew up in a home with young children and have babysitted since I was 13 years old. I have three years of professional experience working as the Youngest Campers Lead (ages 4-6) at Steve & Kate's Camp (a day camp) during the summer and winter breaks. When I’m not working with children, I love baking, reading, and going on hikes. I’m also CPR and First Aid certified and skilled at managing busy schedules. I love to clean, cook, and play at the same time! I know that managing kids can be a handful, and I'd love to help you in any way I can!
“Very professional! Natalia was so great, she was very prompt, reliable, and caring. I would recommend Natalia to anyone with an infant because she’s very knowledgeable about what to expect according to their age and development (at 9 months of age in my case), and was very optimistic and positive. She was very empathetic and operated exactly according to my needs! ”

I love entertaining kiddos and helping them develop social and emotional regulation skills. The parents I work with often compliment my patience and kindness. I am very creative and truly enjoy doing all the things children love to do. My favorite things are singing, dancing, drawing, and reading. I love to go to the park and on walks! I love to move. I am happy to help with some household tasks and errands. I am CPR/First Aid/AED certified as of April 2025. I am comfortable working with pets as well.

Hey there - I am Kesley, I have more than 6 years of experience in child care, 5 years of experience as a nanny in the Bay Area and San Francisco. I have a lot of driving experience and always drive safe and drive my own car. I have been taking care of a sweet boy for over 2 years now and he is going to preschool so I am available for a full time. I have experience with all ages and I can provide great references. I am going to graduate with my associates in child development at city college in May. I am really excited to connect and help you with your little ones. On my free time I like the outdoors and spend time with my friends traveling or just hanging out in the area. I am fully vaccinated
“Kesley has been with us for over a year full time, and has been everything we have been looking for in a caregiver. As soon as you meet her, you sense how caring she is. She is very gentle, patient, and understanding. When put son has big emotions - she remains calm and looks for fun and creative ways to cheer him up. Kesley is also an excellent teacher (and we've been told she is by other parents as well) - she will not push too hard, but just enough to challenge him to learn and try new things. At our request, she's read up on and is familiar with Montessori Baby / Toddler as well as the Wonder Weeks, and she has also taken the Tinyhood online classes. I really value how she will also always put the child first, and do the "right" thing, even if it's a little less convenient - she won't look for the easy way out. She is also very good at following directions - we gave her a schedule to follow and she will follow it - at the same time, she uses sound judgement to make decisions if something comes up. She also takes our son to and from his classes on time and then participates and engages with him during class. Kesley has a big heart and lots of energy. Our son started part time day care to help prepare him for preschool, and Kesley has been flexible with the schedule and very reliable. She is truly a joy to have around! ”
Hi, my name is Azul, I have a degree in Social Communication. I have 6 years of experience in taking care of babies, toddlers + kids. Have CPR and First Aid certifications. Bilingual: English and Spanish. California DL with a clean record (experience driving kids).
“Azul filled in for us when our nanny was out of town. She was absolutely amazing with our 1-year old daughter. She communicated so well with her and really helped her feel comfortable almost immediately. She played so well with our daughter and at the end of each day, our daughter was so happy. We couldn't have asked for a better short-term caretaker. We would feel incredibly comfortable using Azul for the long-term, and we can't wait to use Azul again in the future!”
