Hi families! š
Taking care of children has been a big part of my life for more than 7 years. What I love most about being a nanny is becoming someone children feel completely comfortable and safe with, creating a special bond with them, and sharing the joy that little ones bring into our lives.
Iām originally from Turkey and began my childcare journey as an au pair in the U.S. After four years in San Francisco, I got married and moved to Menlo Park with my husband, who is a software engineer. Iām currently in law school, but childcare has remained an important part of my life throughout my studies. I truly enjoy and didnāt want to give up even while pursuing my education.
Iām Montessori-trained and experienced with sleep training, potty training, establishing routines, and supporting children as they become more independent. Iām also comfortable handling the everyday parts of family life, including childrenās laundry, meal prep, bath time, diaper changes, tidying, and planning fun and age-appropriate activities.
Families Iāve worked with would describe me as calm, dependable, proactive, and flexible. Iām someone who notices what needs to be done and likes making a familyās day a little easier, not just waiting to be asked.
I also genuinely enjoy cooking and am happy to prepare meals based on your familyās preferences. š
More than anything, I value building a close and lasting relationship with the families I work with. I want children to see me not only as their nanny, but also as a trusted role model and ābig sisterā who cares about them, teaches them, has fun with them, and helps them grow.
If youāre looking for someone experienced, warm, responsible, and genuinely invested in your children, Iād love to meet your family!
