Hi! My name is Vanessa. I am seeking a position following my college graduation and playing Division 2 collegiate soccer. I bring substantial experience as a house manager and nanny, including responsibilities such as transporting children to and from school and after-school activities. Meal Preparation, laundry and other related household task. A little bit about myself. Firstly, I am reliable and responsible with a great sense of accountability. Secondly, I have experience working with kids in different settings, which has helped me develop the necessary skills to support children. Additionally, I am patient, kind and caring towards children and able to communicate effectively with them. Lastly, safety is always my top priority when it comes to looking after children and will ensure that they are always in good hands. Some of my hobbies consist of going to the gym, playing soccer, and hanging with my friends and fam. I love staying active and being outdoors! Id love to connect!

Vanessa has been a wonderful family assistant for our household. She is incredibly reliable, punctual, and consistent, which has made a huge difference in keeping things running smoothly. From the beginning, she has been steady, trustworthy, and easy to communicate with. Vanessa brings a calm, capable presence and handles responsibilities with care and professionalism. Whether it’s helping with schedules, transportation, or general household support, she follows through and can always be counted on. It is such a relief to have someone who is dependable and takes pride in doing things well. She has been a real asset to our family, and I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a responsible, stable, and supportive family assistant.

I am patient and I love to spend my time with kids, I'm very sweet and funny, so I get along really well with them. I'm also creative when I teach. And last but not least, I am very independent, so I will adapt easily.

From the very first day, Diana was punctual and reliable, always arriving on time. My kids adore them and often talk about the fun games they play together. Diana has a great way of keeping my children engaged with creative activities, from arts and crafts to outdoor play. Diana is one of our best sitters, and we highly recommend her!!

Howdy- My name is Kevin and I am excited to meet you and your family! I work full time at a highly regarded Montessori in Corte Madera, caring for 18-36 month-olds and also have experience in a classroom with ages 4-6. If you’re struggling with toilet training, language, sleeping, behavioral issues ect, I have plenty of skills and strategies to share. In a non teacher role, I have lots of experience with all ages. I hold an AMI assistant to infancy diploma from Montessori Northwest which is one of the most rigorous trainings in the ECE world. I love being outside and playing sports. I can coach basketball, football, swimming, and skating on a meaningful level however, I’m happy to facilitate any kind of sport, craft, or activity. I am confident watching multiple children and pets at once. Ensuring everyone’s safety/comfort is always my main priority. I hope I get the opportunity to enrich your child’s experience on your night out!

I am a credentialed Special Education Teacher and private tutor with thirteen years of teaching experience. I have worked with kids with a range of needs, and specialize in students with learning disabilities, ADHD, ASD, and 2E children. I have also been a sitter and nanny for many more years. I have significant experience with kids from newborn infants through high school age. As a sitter, I’m incredibly attentive and engaging with kids. I love to read with them, play games, do arts and crafts, play outside, and cook/ bake. I’m a great cook, and am happy to do meal prep services in addition to childcare as well. I have a B.A. from UC San Diego in International Relations, and a Master's Degree from CUNY Brooklyn College in Special Education. In my free time, I love to cook and bake, create pottery, spend time outside and on the water, and travel to new parts of the world! Cancellation Policy: If bookings are cancelled by the parent within 12 hours of the start time of the booking, I charge a fee of 50% of the total booking to help offset the loss of wages on short notice.

Meagan was amazing!! Seamlessly jumped in and the girls immediately took to her. She covered for our nanny for 3 days for our 4 yr old and 1.5 yr old and I would use her again in a heartbeat. She is warm, loving, energetic and kept everything super tidy. 10/10, thank you Meagan!!
