Hi! My name is Ruby, and I’m an experienced nanny with over 5 years of hands-on care for infants, toddlers, and school-age children. I’m certified in sleep training, baby-led weaning, car seat safety, and CPR, and I prioritize creating a safe, nurturing, and developmentally supportive environment. I also have additional experience teaching swim lessons, with a strong focus on water safety. I’m based in Grass Valley and currently available for part-time and as-needed positions. I can travel to surrounding areas such as Auburn, Rocklin, Roseville, Folsom, and Sacramento.

I raised two wonderful humans to adulthood, and have been teaching high school English for 15 years while earning numerous awards and commendations. I also come trained as a first responder through 15 years of experience with Search and Rescue which includes certification as EMR (including First Aid, CPR, and AED for infants through adults) as well as numerous awards and commendations. I volunteered for 10 years in the youth program at my church (Calvary Chapel, Reno/Sparks), worked as the lead teacher of the school-age summer program at Little Knights and Maidens, led the youth program at my local library for many years, and led my own children through myriad sports and activities (soccer, dance, 4H, Scouts, etc). As my own children are recently off to college, I find myself with more time on my hands, and I would love to serve my community while making some extra tuition money for my own kids. Tutoring of course can be included in the services listed.

Hello! I am Nicole. I have worked with children since I was 15 when I started junior lifeguarding and teaching swim lessons. I coached skiing to kids for over 10 years. I have worked as a kids art teacher throughout the years. I speak very good Spanish. I am comfortable with infants. I am infant, child and adult first aid, CPR and AED certified. I love kids and keep it safe and fun! I can provide references upon request.
