My name is Janice and I am a California native with over 20 years of experience as a professional nanny. I have a Bachelor of Arts in Education. I am CPR/First Aid and Trustline certified. I have worked with children of all ages- from newborn to adolescents-including children with special needs.
I strive to provide nurturing, intentional care that supports each child’s developmental needs. My approach is grounded in empathy, consistency, and mutual respect. I believe in talking with children, not at them, and I support emotional regulation and resilience through calm, reflective interactions.
I have worked as a tutor, and have created and implemented individualized home programs. I have homeschooled children while traveling, adapting curriculum to support learning on the go.
I have traveled extensively with families both domestically and internationally. I am able to bring structure, flexibility, and a grounding presence while traveling and at home. I believe being a nanny is not just about childcare—it is about building strong, lasting relationships, becoming a trusted partner to parents, and supporting children through every stage of their growth.
I have hands-on experience in senior care through the time I spent caring for my own aging mother while she underwent treatment for cancer. During this period, I regularly accompanied her to medical appointments, communicated with her doctors, and kept our family informed of all important updates.
I, also, helped manage her day-to-day needs, including preparing meals and medications, running errands, and maintaining her three-bedroom home. This experience gave me a deep understanding of the physical and emotional support that seniors often require.
I have experience with pet care and house sitting, regularly working with several families to care for their cats and dogs while they are away. I take care of all essential tasks, including feeding, playtime, outdoor walks/dog park time, and cleaning up after the pets to ensure they are happy and well looked after in their owners’ absence. Personally, I’ve had cats for over 16 years and have had 2 snakes, which has made me confident and comfortable around a wide range of animals. I am reliable and attentive, and this approach helps pet owners feel at ease knowing their homes and beloved pets are in capable hands.
