About Me Hi! My name is Atidtiya, and I have over three years of hands-on childcare experience in the United States, along with additional nursery experience from back home. I was an au pair for two wonderful families — one year in Connecticut caring for three children, and one year in San Francisco caring for two children. Before becoming an au pair, I worked as an assistant in a child nursery for 1.5 years, supporting early childhood development and daily routines. I am gentle, patient, and reliable, and I always try to make children feel safe, understood, and engaged. I’m comfortable with a wide range of ages, from babies and toddlers to school-aged kids, and I’m experienced with everything from creative play to bedtime routines and meal prep. Now that I’ve completed my au pair program, I’m open to babysitting opportunities and look forward to meeting new families in the area.
Hi, my name is Rose. I’m a trusted caregiver with a lifelong passion for supporting families. Over the past several years, I’ve provided care for children of all ages, including newborns, infants, toddlers, and school-aged kids (yes, even twins!). I also have deep experience supporting children with special needs from assisting my daughter-in-law with her childcare facility and supporting a family with 2 neurodivergent children. Beyond that, I’ve spent many years caring for the children of family and friends, so nurturing and supporting little ones has always been a natural part of my life. I enjoy engaging kids in creative activities, helping with homework, and ensuring they feel safe, supported, and cared for. Recently, I spent the past three years as the primary caregiver for my mother, which deepened my experience and compassion for senior care. I understand the importance of patience, dignity, and dependable support. I’m happy to assist with meal preparation, companionship, and day-to-day tasks. In addition to caregiving, I also offer household support, including doing laundry, light and deep cleaning, and running errands to help out. I’m known by family and friends as the one they call when they need help achieving a clean and organized space. I truly enjoy creating clean, tidy, and functional spaces. This stems from a childhood of supporting my father's janitorial service and owning my own home staging business. Looking forward to supporting you and your loved ones!

I look forward to speaking with you :) Here is a letter of recommendation: “Anjali S. For any families looking for a nanny, sharing a recommendation for our nanny Laurel who has been caring for our twin girls who are 5 months old. Laurel has a ton of experience caring for children and was really great with our girls. She is extremely organized and on top of things which made communication very easy! She is very in tune on what milestones your baby is working towards and incorporates into their play time. Above all, I always felt at ease with our daughters under her care as she takes safety very seriously. She was a very calm and loving presence for our daughters and would highly recommend her to a family looking for child care.”
“Laurel is absolutely a GEM!! She jumped right into playing with our active, vehicle loving 2-year-old, and he absolutely adored her. It was our first time having anyone over to care for him that is not family and we were nervous, but Laurel put us at ease right away with her intuitive, gentle nature and deep care and engagement with our son. We are so grateful we found Laurel, she is one-of-a-kind a wonderful at being with children.”
