Hello Families, My name is Flor, and I’m a proud mother of three wonderful children. My oldest son is 26 and currently attending City College, my daughter is 24 and a student at San Francisco State, and my youngest daughter is 14 and in high school. I have been working as a nanny since 2007 and have extensive experience caring for children of all ages from newborn as young as three days old to teenagers. I have also cared for twins and am comfortable managing multiple children at once. I hold a valid infant and adult First Aid certification and a driver’s license. I truly love what I do and take pride in providing a safe, nurturing, and positive environment where children can grow and thrive. I look forward to the opportunity to support your family and care for your little ones! Also i have references to share. Notes: - Willing to make meals for kids ONLY
I am a warm, caring, and dependable nanny with over five years of experience caring for children ranging from newborns to teenagers. I truly enjoy being around children and creating a safe, loving, and positive environment where they feel supported, understood, and encouraged to grow. I consider myself responsible, patient, organized, intuitive, and kind. While many people can watch children, I believe that building a genuine connection with them is what truly makes a difference. I focus on forming strong bonds based on trust, respect, and communication, and I always strive to make children feel comfortable and valued. I am attentive to each child’s individual needs and personality, and I take pride in being someone families can rely on. I love helping children learn, explore, and develop through play, creativity, and daily routines. My goal is always to support both children and parents by providing consistent, thoughtful, and high-quality care.
Hi, my name is Liz! I’m 22 years old, located in the San Pablo, Ca area. I am a mom of 1 adventurous little girl, currently 2 years old! I have experienced with newborns, toddlers, and other children up to the age of 10. I love taking kids on walks to parks, and the zoo! I have experience with both morning and evening routines, prepping and serving breakfast/snacks, bathing, administrating medicine/vitamins, setting up dinner, winding down, bath time, bedtime, and of course play time! I am more than happy to answer any questions your family might have. I work best with routine and clear instructions, but of course I understand the hectic side of routines with kids :) Id love to chat over the phone or facetime if you’re comfortable. You can reach me at five one zero seven seven six six four two two. Thank you for your time and consideration :) - Liz :)
I’m a dependable and compassionate nanny with several years of experience caring for children of all ages, including those with special needs. I’ve completed Human Growth and Development and Teaching coursework, which helps me understand children’s emotional and developmental stages. I’m patient, creative, and love keeping kids engaged through play, learning, and routine. I’m also comfortable with pets, light housekeeping, and school pickups. Families describe me as reliable, calm under pressure, and easy to communicate with.
For two decades, I've dedicated myself to nurturing young minds and creating enriching environments for children. My passion stems from witnessing their incredible growth and development. I enjoy using my creative and imaginative personality to engage children in outdoor sports, board games, and educational activities. I'm very comfortable enforcing household rules and caring up to two children, ages newborn to to seven. I maintain open communication with parents, providing updated through verbal discussions or text, always respecting your preferred method. My background includes Early Childhood Education coursework, First Aid training, and CPR Training. I'm also happy to help with cooking and crafts. I hope to bring my experience and love for childcare to your family.
