I’m an experienced childcare professional with over seven years of hands-on experience working with children of all ages. I’ve been both a live-in and full-time nanny, and I’ve supported multiple families over the years with everything from daily routines to developmental activities. I also worked as an after-school program leader for middle school students, giving me strong skills in homework support, behavior management, and creating fun, structured activities. I have experience with children from 2 months up to 12 years old, and I’m confident handling schedules, meal prep, light cleaning, naps, school pick-ups, and creating a safe, warm environment. I’m very organized, reliable, and clean, and I have my own car with a valid driver’s license. I am also CPR certified/infant first aid certified. I love helping families feel supported and making sure their kids feel cared for, engaged, and comfortable!
I have 20+ years in housekeeping and have great reputations with all the people I’ve worked with in the past. Every day I come in with a great attitude and wanting to make my clients day by attending to their housekeeping needs.
“Lupe was phenomenal! We will look forward to working with her in the future!”
I volunteered at a daycare for one year, where I assisted in caring for children ages 2–4. My responsibilities included supervising activities, helping with meals, supporting nap time routines, and reading to the children. This experience helped me develop strong childcare skills, patience, and the ability to create a safe and positive environment for young children. I hold a Bachelor’s degree in Biology from San Diego State University (SDSU) and am also comfortable caring for animals. I have previously completed CPR training; although my certification recently expired, I am willing to renew it before providing care for children or seniors. I am highly patient, dependable, and an effective communicator. In addition, I worked as a Shift Supervisor at KFC for eight years, where I independently managed shifts and was responsible for team leadership, conflict resolution, staff coordination, and delivering excellent customer service. This role strengthened my organizational skills, leadership abilities, and sense of responsibility. With extensive experience in the food service industry, I am knowledgeable about food safety regulations, proper food handling and preparation procedures, and maintaining high standards of cleanliness and sanitation.
I am a dedicated Medical Assistant with over a decade of experience working with children ages 2 to 12, fostering their creativity through art, crafts, singing, dance, and play. I also have experience providing senior care in a hospital setting. I am familiar with ADLs, companionship, and supporting adults' needs. Additionally, I am comfortable with pet care, particularly around large dogs, as long as they are friendly. Outside of work, I enjoy reading and staying active by going to the gym. I find joy in engaging with others and learning about their life stories.
Hi! I’m Thais, 32, originally from Brazil, now a permanent resident in San Diego - CA. I’ve been caring for kids for the past 8 years, starting as a full-time nanny and now babysitting on nights and weekends around my marketing job. I’m right at home with bottle feeds, nap schedules, snack time meltdowns, and all the fun. What I care about most is that your kids are safe, happy, and looked after, not just watched. I keep things playful when they’ve got energy to burn and calm when it’s time to wind down. Bedtime routines, mealtimes, screen limits, whatever your house rules are, I follow them. Being a former full-time nanny taught me to stay steady when things get hectic and to really communicate with parents. You’ll hear from me if anything comes up, and I’ll leave you a quick rundown of how it went. I’m reliable, and I show up on time. I’m comfortable driving and happy to travel to you. I also love pets, so a dog or cat in the mix is a bonus, not a problem. Feel free to reach out with any questions. I’d love to meet your family. My Facebook is:[removed] I’m happy to provide references. Thank you!
“I’m delighted to recommend Thais as a nanny and childcare provider. She has cared for our family for almost four years, starting when our oldest son was just 1 year old, and now helps look after both of our children (currently almost 5 and 3½ years old). Over these years, Thais has proven to be exceptionally reliable and trustworthy — we have never had to worry when the kids are in her care. She is wonderful with children: attentive, patient, and genuinely engaged with them, always noticing their needs before we even have to ask. She’s proactive in anticipating what the kids need day to day, and she consistently keeps their spaces and belongings tidy and organized. Our family trust her completely, and our children adore her. Any family would be lucky to have her as part of their team.”
