My name is Azure and I am a Nanny from beautiful Sonoma County. With over five years of experience caring for children—primarily ages 4 and under—and three years supporting elderly clients, I bring a calm, compassionate presence to every family I work with. For the past three years, I’ve been a full-time nanny for one family, supporting their daughter’s growth from toddlerhood into preschool. My responsibilities have included meal prep, potty training, school pickup, homework help, and light housekeeping, providing dependable, all-around support for busy parents. I’ve also worked with children on the autism spectrum and bring a patient, individualized approach to each child’s unique needs. My background in elderly care, including hospice and dementia support, has deepened my empathy and taught me the importance of making people feel seen, heard, and valued—principles I bring into every aspect of childcare. I’m dedicated, dependable, and passionate about helping children feel safe, confident, and cared for in their everyday routines.
Hi, my name is Stephanie. I’m 18 years old and I’m about to start college. I have experience caring for children between the ages of 3–11 through helping take care of my younger siblings and occasionally babysitting for families. I enjoy spending time with kids and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I’m responsible, patient, and I always try to create a positive and fun environment for the children I’m looking after.
I’m a dependable and nurturing caregiver and an aspiring nursing student with a strong interest in child health and well being. I am also a CPR certified. I enjoy engaging children in age appropriate activities, creative play, reading, and outdoor time. I’m patient, organized, and safety-focused, and I’m comfortable helping with childcare routines, light housekeeping, and pet care. I always prioritize clear communication and making children feel comfortable and supported.
My name is Natalie, a bilingual (English and French and learning Spanish) Windsor High senior with over six years of childcare experience mentored by my nanny’s who are 30-year industry veteran. Caring for others is a gift of mine I have had since a young age! My experience in student government, serving on a school board and more makes me wise beyond my years and very responsible. As an active figure skater and dancer, I have plenty of energy to foster an environment that prioritizes outdoor play, fun quality engagement and creative crafts, though I am equally patient and calm when caring for infants and any child that needs it. I am a licensed driver and capable cook, happy to assist with school pickups, errands, and meal prep as well. As a lifelong pet owner, I have extensive experience with house and dog sitting, ensuring your furry friends and home are perfectly cared for. I also provide compassionate, non-medical senior care and am a dedicated, mature professional ready to support your household before I head to college this fall.
With 3+ years of childcare experience, I am all about having fun while being safe and comfortable! For the last 2 almost 3 years I have worked as a camp counselor. I love adventures, doing crafts and even playing fun games to keep the spirits high and mind learning. I am First Aid and CPR certified, as safety is my #1. I can offer light cleaning, running errands, homework help and love pets. I have my own car so rides are always available. Feel free to reach out if you need any additional information!

"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!"
