Hi! My name is Catia — I’m 25 years old and based in Palo Alto. I have several years of experience working with children from infants and toddlers through elementary school, both in private homes and educational settings. I currently work as an Infant & Toddler Teacher Assistant at a children’s center, where I help provide a safe, nurturing, and engaging environment for young children. Alongside my childcare experience, I’ve worked as a nanny and babysitter for multiple families, caring for children as young as 4 months through elementary school. I love creating fun, engaging, and safe environments where kids can learn, play, and feel comfortable being themselves. I’m also CPR and First Aid certified, bilingual in Spanish, and experienced in supporting children with different learning and behavioral needs. Families describe me as responsible, kind, and dependable, and I truly enjoy building positive relationships with both kids and parents. I’d love the opportunity to bring that same care and energy to your family! -Catia :)
