I love to laugh and smile, value healthy communication and reach far beyond my responsibilities for families. I am a believer of love, equality, humanity, health & wellness. My part as a nanny/caregiver is such like a village with a family and I hope I can find a new one that will humbly know how special their children/child will be in my life, on a daily basis.

Hello, my name is Gigi, and I am 35 years old. I have spent the past 4.5 years working as a house manager, where I’ve gained extensive experience in managing household operations and supporting families. Prior to this role, I worked as a junior designer at an interior design firm in San Francisco, where I developed my skills in creating beautiful and functional spaces. I’m passionate about both family dynamics.

My name is Sofia, and I’m a rising junior at UC Santa Barbara, home for the summer. I have been babysitting on and off since 7th grade. I’ve worked primarily for three families. The first two roles involved caring for one child each (ages 4 and 6), while the third involved caring for three siblings (ages 2, 5, and 8), including one child with special needs. Caring for an 8-year-old boy with brain cancer, which affected both his physical and cognitive abilities, taught me patience, adaptability, and how to communicate when verbal communication was limited. I also spent three years working as a math tutor at Mathnasium, where I worked with groups of three to four students at a time, ranging from preschool through high school. Managing multiple children at once strengthened my patience, communication skills, and ability to keep kids engaged while adapting to different ages and learning styles. I'd describe myself as creative, which helps me get along with kids. The majority of my experience has been with no-screen families, so I am very comfortable keeping kids entertained with fun activities, imaginative play, crafts, reading, and spending time outdoors. I enjoy finding activities that match each child's interests and energy level rather than relying on screens. Above all, I want parents to feel confident that their children are safe and well cared for. I enjoy creating a fun, engaging environment while respecting each family's routines and parenting style. Whether we're doing crafts, playing outside, or winding down for bedtime, I strive to be patient, dependable, and someone both parents and kids feel comfortable with. I have reliable transportation and am happy to do pickups or drive to activities. I have had my license for well over 3 years. I’m looking for short-term work while I’m home for the summer before returning to school in September, and I have a very flexible schedule. Please contact me with any questions you may have. I look forward to the opportunity to communicate with you and make new little friends!

I’m CPR certified, up to date on all my vaccinations (COVID, flu, Tdap), have a clean background check, and hold a valid California driver’s license. I speak both English and Portuguese, companionship, light housekeeping, meal prep, and transportation if needed. I’m responsible, patient, and always committed to creating a safe, respectful, and nurturing environment. Looking forward to connecting with a great family!

Hello, I have experience with all ages. Infants and toddlers in particular. I’ve worked with one family for 13 years. They have 4 kids. I’ve worked with them since their oldest was an infant and now she is 14. I’m mainly with their toddler recently who I’ve also been with since she was an infant. They have 2 other school age children that I also care for. At this time their schedules are such that they don’t need childcare. I worked for the afterschool program at Alvarado Elementary in San Francisco for many years when my children attended school there. I love exploring all the parks and museums the Bay Area has to offer, reading books, crafts, cooking and baking if age appropriate. Look forward to talking with you! Thanks, Colleen Champion
