Hi SF Families! ๐๐โจ
New to the app but not to child care! I have references available :)
Iโm a beach lover, student, nature enthusiast, 25-year-old nanny with over 10 years of experience caring for kids of all ages and abilities. Iโm currently studying psychology with a minor in counseling and plan to attend graduate school here in the Bay Area. My long-term goal is to become a Child Life Specialist or Pediatric Psychologist. Supporting kids through their growth isnโt just work for me, itโs truly my calling.
Iโve worked closely with autistic children as a nanny, B.C.A, and a para-educator with SFUSD, and I deeply value meeting each child exactly where they are. ๐๐คฑ๐ผ
My background in psychology, love of neuroscience, training in Waldorf education and yoga training, all shape the way I show up: grounded, playful, attuned, and developmentally aware. I focus a lot on emotional regulation, connection, creativity, and building confidence. ๐ง ๐๐จ๐
Iโve cared for everything from a bustling household of six kids to providing steady overnight support for a nurse mom working long shifts. Iโm adaptable and calm under pressure, and I genuinely enjoy the rhythm of busy family life. Iโve also worked private events, helping create safe and fun spaces for little ones while parents can relax or focus! ๐๏ธ๐งบ๐บ
Before fully diving into childcare, I worked for a catering company, music venue, and restaurants, so Iโm very comfortable with meal prep, packing lunches, prepping healthy snacks, and helping families stay organized around food and daily tasks like laundry or organizing. ๐ฉโ๐ณ๐ณ
Iโm also comfortable with basic medication administration and toileting support. โ๏ธ๐ฝ๐
I love taking kids outside โ beach days, park hangs, nature walks, or city adventures. Fresh air and movement are big in my care style. I incorporate music, storytelling, and creative play often. ๐ถโโ๏ธ๐๐ฆ๐ป๐ผ
I also speak ASL and light Spanish. ๐ค๐ช๐ธ
I am certified in CPR as well. ๐ฅ๐ฉบ
If youโre looking for someone warm, intuitive, outdoorsy, and deeply invested in your childโs well-being, Iโd love to connect. ๐ค open to setting up zoom meetings or interviews any time.
Thank you!
โSierra arrived 10 minutes early, took my kids to play outside and kept them safe on a city excursion to the local hardware store. The kids were already asking if sheโd come back.
Highly recommended! โ
