Find nannies in Nipomo, CA

I just relocated from San Francisco where I lived for 10 years and would love to meet new families whom I can get to know and be available for on an ongoing basis. I work as a photographer and visual artist and supplement my income as a part time childcare provider. Children have always been around in my life. Growing up in Santa Barbara, I was the eldest of my parent’s friend’s children so, naturally, I began babysitting at an early age. In high school I was involved with dance programs for all ages and worked as a lifeguard and swim instructor through my early college years. In the past decade I have been babysitting and nannying for many families in San Francisco whom I met both through UrbanSitter and word of mouth recommendations in various parent circles. I have much experience working with infants, toddlers, and on up in age. I was the primary babysitter and, at times, pt-ft nanny for two families over the past 8 years. I grew close with them and saw both families through two pregnancies each and was a constant throughout the growing and learning of each of their children (one family with four kids and the other with three). I also spent one year working as a full-time nanny for a young boy beginning at 11mo through 26mo. In addition to all that, I have worked with many other families and single parents as a fill-in/part-time/short-term/ longer-term/one-off care taker for many ages. As I began to work with younger children regularly in SF, I sought to expand my knowlege and understanding of development in children 0-5yrs old by attended seminars focused on sleep training, nutrition, behavior, and productive disciplin methods, as well as my own research. They call me The Baby Whisperer. At one point, I considered training as a doula, but decided to remain focused on my art. Current on all vaccinations CA driver's license and clean driving record. I drive a truck these days so I am unable to use my car to transport children. 4hr minimum per booking Short notice cancellation fee: 50% of booking if cancelled within 72hrs of start time; 100% of booking if cancelled within 48hrs of start time
