Vaccinated & boosted! experienced, professional, silly, loving! Most recent background check - June 2025. Red Cross Adult/Child/Infant CPR & First Aid Certification 6/2025 Parents have called me "baby whisperer" and "Maya Poppins"; a three year old called me "booty butt"! I can handle anything - and try my best with a smile! I've worked with children from ages 2w to 13y here! From KG teacher and early childhood curriculum developer, teacher trainer and University lecturer, I've worked extensively in education. After most of a decade abroad and a wild pandemic, I just finished my doctorate in education (March 2023!). I love working with children and appreciate having a flexible schedule. With little ones, I'm silly and creative (and love to share my published children's book!). I understand tears and have the patience to soothe and work with the frustration, exhaustion, or confusion behind them. For parents, I'm super tidy, reliable, a great communicator, and have a CA driver's license! I have lived and worked all over the world and have a social justice mindset that informs my life and work. Also available for high-end tutoring, development evaluations (ages 2-6), middle/upper grade social services, and personal assistant services at other rates.

*Fully vaccinated and boosted* Hi families! I am a professional nanny with 19+ years of child and pet care experience in the counties of Alameda, San Francisco, Santa Clara, San Mateo, and Santa Cruz. I am CPR certified and First Aid trained. I have experience working with over 100 unique families with children ages newborn through teen. I am comfortable supporting many different styles and routines for meals, play, education, hygiene, and sleep. I have experience supporting sleep training; solid starting; practicing milestones (rolling, sitting, crawling, walking); language development, including baby signing and speech therapy exercises; and potty training (including elimination communication with infants). In working with older kids, I have provided before/after school care, transportation, and academic/life skills support. I have stayed overnight with kids; joined families as a vacation nanny; supervised groups of children at events; and comforted many children with separation anxiety. I am confident that I can handle any situation professionally & safely. My favorite things to do with kids are playing outside, reading books, and doing projects/crafts. I love when kids talk about their thoughts & ideas and express their creativity in the activities we do together. I am able to set & enforce appropriate boundaries with children while getting on their level to be a fun, playful, nurturing caregiver. I am a certified Yoga Teacher (RYS-200) and trained in Wilderness First Aid (WFA). I would be happy to facilitate experiences involving yoga/meditation/local outdoor exploration!
