Hi there! I’m a warm, reliable caregiver with over 5 years of professional pediatric experience supporting children and families, along with many years of babysitting throughout college and beyond. My background in childhood development along with the many young children in my family have given me a strong understanding of children 6 months and beyond, along with how to support children’s emotional, social, and developmental needs at every stage. I believe in fostering play and curiosity while maintaining a safe and nurturing environment. Some of the activities I love are playing games, pretend play, music, and playing outside! I take great pride in being a caregiver that families are able to trust and rely on. I’d love the opportunity to connect with your family and I look forward to chatting!

NO LONGER ACCEPTING NEW FAMILIES AT THIS TIME. With respect to the health of my clients, and myself, I do not work with contagious kids/families for occasional bookings, I'll only consider sick care for longer term jobs. Hi parents!

Healthy living, fit, active, non-smoker **Background & Availability:** I am native to the Bay Area, with a 25-years in childcare, in daycare, preschool, and nanny rolls. **My Childcare Philosophy:** I am a career nanny who views childcare as a calling, inspired by assisting my mother, an in-home childcare provider. Known for my warm, kind, and nurturing approach, I blend patience, gentleness, affection, and fun while still maintaining healthy boundaries with kids, all to help create an environment that encourages growth and happiness. **Engagement & Activities:** I am a believer in the magic of meaningful engagement. I steer clear of distractions, focus on interactive play, age-appropriate activities, and enriching experiences. Whether it's outdoor adventures, snuggling up with books, musical exploration, movement, or arts and crafts, I like to make every moment count to create a well-rounded and enriching experience. **Education & Experience:** My early childhood education is extensive, nearing completion of an associate teaching certificate. My experience is versatile, gained over many years of working with newborns, infants, toddlers, and early school-age children, occasionally extending to older age groups. I am an active member of the International Nanny Association, having attending their annual conferences for ten years, just one of the ways I prioritize keeping current with the latest childcare practices. **Professional Qualifications/Health and Safety:** - International Nanny Association Credentialed Nanny - Newborn Care Specialist trained - Pediatric CPR and First Aid certified (renewed regularly) - COVID vaccinated and up-to-date with immunizations for the 2024/25 season (flu yearly, tdap in 2021 due every 10 years). -Negative TB test -Safe driver -TrustLine registered If you are searching for a highly experienced, and loving nanny for your little ones, I would love to connect!

Hi! My name is Bella, and I’m a 23-year-old college student with years of experience caring for both children and animals. I work as a veterinary assistant, and also worked at a Boys and Girls club. I truly love helping and caring for others—whether that means keeping kids safe and engaged or making sure pets get the attention and exercise they need. I’m reliable, responsible, and patient, and I take pride in creating a safe and positive environment. I’m available most evenings and early mornings, which is perfect for morning dog walks or helping get children ready for the day. My hourly rate is flexible depending on ages and specific needs. While I don’t have a car, I’m dependable with scheduling and committed to showing up on time. I’d love the opportunity to help care for your family or pets — feel free to reach out with any questions!

Isabella was amazing with our 15 month old who has major stranger danger! Isabella was able to win over our daughter immediately and our daughter had a great time with her! Isabella is great!

My name is Julia. I’m 28 years old and I have a bachelors in Early Childhood Development. I love children very much. I was a kindergarten teacher for years and an au pair in the US for six years working for two loving and amazing families In Mill Valley, CA. I am now a permanent citizen. I’m very comfortable with any age group. Have tons of experience with newborns as well! I have just moved back to the Bay Area after living in South Lake Tahoe for about a year. I am a very outdoorsy person and I love dogs, cats and reptiles! I am very organized, love fitting in some kitchen tidying up and laundry folding while the kids nap! Please make sure any overnight requests are made at least one week in advance. I was also a house manager for years for the same families I babysat, so I’m super comfortable with house sitting, dog sitting, tidying up the home, driving around to help you with errands and more :) feel free to lay on me all your needs and I can do my best to accommodate them. - willing to remove shoes, wear masks or any other personal family requirements you might have.

Julia was great to work with! Quick to respond to texts and last minute changes and really flexible when our baby didn't go to bed as planned! She was also incredible creative with coming up with soothing techniques! Would definitely hire her again!
