I am an experienced and caring babysitter, as well as a mom myself. Being a parent has given me hands-on experience in caring for children, understanding their individual needs, and creating a safe, loving, and nurturing environment. I am patient, responsible, and attentive, and I genuinely enjoy spending time with children. I am comfortable helping with meals, playtime, bedtime routines, homework, and everyday childcare needs. My goal is always to make children feel comfortable, happy, and well cared for while giving parents peace of mind.

Booked by 1 family in San Geronimo, CA

Hi! I’m Juliana. I’m an experienced nanny who has been working with families in Marin County for nearly five years, with over eight years of experience caring for children of different ages, from infants to school-aged children. I’m originally from Colombia, fluent in both English and Spanish, and currently a college student with a strong educational background. My experience includes working as an au pair, nanny, babysitter, and in educational settings with groups of children. I’m responsible, caring, organized, and reliable. I enjoy creating a safe and engaging environment through educational play, arts and crafts, outdoor activities, and age-appropriate routines that encourage independence and confidence. I also have experience with Montessori-inspired childcare. I’m a confident driver with a clean driving record and my own reliable vehicle. I value clear communication with parents and would love to connect with a family looking for an experienced, dependable, and loving nanny!

“Juli is a warm, caring, and wonderful nanny who has taken care of my 2 kids from ages 10 months to 5 years old. I cannot recommend her highly enough!”

Managing various childcare responsibilities, such as baby laundry, organizing toys, handling the diaper pail, and washing dishes. Providing a positive and supportive environment. Maintaining open communication with parents throughout the day via photos. I always ask for guidance before taking action to avoid any misunderstandings. Preparing healthy and nutritious meals. EXPERIENCE • Over 28 years of experience caring for babies, children, and pre-teens. • CPR (Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation) Certified. • Fully vaccinated. • Clean background record (background check verified). • Licensed driver. • (BONUS) I am also a mother myself. ABOUT ME I am a fun, patient, and detail-oriented person. I assure you that your children will be in safe and capable hands.
