ROTA Nanny | Private Household Specialist | 10+ Years Experience as a nanny Hi! I’m Bianca — I am a professional ROTA nanny with over 12 years of experience caring for children of all ages in private households. I specialize in rotational (ROTA) nanny positions and have extensive experience working in fully staffed homes, travel roles, and long-term private family placements. I bring a calm, nurturing, and reliable presence into every home, supporting children from newborn through school age. I am CPR & First Aid certified and have completed Newborn Care Specialist training. I love creating engaging, playful, and developmentally rich days — including story time, sensory play, outdoor activities, creative projects, and hands-on learning experiences. Families describe me as intuitive, patient, and easy to communicate with. I value strong teamwork with parents and helping create stable, peaceful routines where children feel safe, seen, and supported. At the moment I am not seeking part-time or traditional weekday roles. I’d love to connect with families looking for experienced ROTA nanny support.

“Looking forward to working with Bianca again! ”

I’m a UC Berkeley Neuroscience graduate with years of experience working with children from toddlers through high school. I grew up with a younger sibling and many younger cousins, and I’ve always loved being around kids! I also worked as a Kumon tutor throughout college, teaching and supporting students of different ages and learning styles. I’m energetic, creative, patient, and dependable, and I love drawing, playing games, being active, and making kids feel comfortable and engaged. I’m happy to help with homework, crafts, activities, and keeping kids entertained while creating a fun and caring environment.

"We were incredibly grateful that Maya was able to help us out with a last-minute childcare emergency. She matched our 9-year-old's energy with arts & crafts, some quiet reading, and a walk around the neighborhood. We'd have Maya back in a heartbeat!"
