Hi! My name is Julia, and I’m a caring, responsible, and energetic caregiver with experience caring for infants, toddlers, children, and pets. I currently work as a nanny in San Francisco and truly enjoy creating a safe, loving, and engaging environment where children can learn, grow, and feel supported. I have a background in Veterinary Medicine, which has strengthened my attention to detail, patience, and ability to stay calm in any situation. Families describe me as dependable, kind, organized, and proactive. I love planning age-appropriate activities, spending time outdoors, reading, arts and crafts, and helping children reach developmental milestones. I’m also comfortable assisting with light household tasks related to the children, meal preparation, bedtime routines, transportation, and pet care. My goal is always to provide peace of mind for parents while making each day fun and enriching for the children in my care.
“Julia was wonderful with my two girls! She was on time, very sweet, and the girls warmed up to her quickly. I felt comfortable leaving them with her and everything went really well. I would definitely have her back!”
