Hello, My name is Angela. I love children, animals, and nature. I have raised 2 children of my own. I was a part time stay at home mother. I am a firm believer in holistic rearing of children. My children were raised in Waldorf education. I have always helped others with their children, because as a single mother I know how much it helps. I am a Dula and have participated at 4 births. I am a yoga meditation coach, life coach, and health coach. I also mentor children in equine therapy. I live on 20 acres near Lake Lotawana. I would prefer to watch children at my home, but I can be flexible depending on the situation. I will engage in creative activities with your child. Hit me up if you think I could be a good match.

Hi! I’m Sofía, a nanny who loves helping kids grow, learn, and have fun. One of my greatest skills is planning activities, I’m also a teacher and I know what kids love and how to keep them engaged, so parents can rest assured their children will have fun and feel at ease. As part of their daily routines, I sometimes introduce a few Spanish words it’s often hilarious to them, and it sparks their curiosity, helping them pick things up quickly. I’m all about creating a safe, positive environment where kids enjoy themselves and learn. Schedule me now, and let’s make it fun for your little ones!
