We felt completely at ease knowing they were in such capable and caring hands. ”

Hi families! My name is Brenda. I am a San Francisco native :) I was an infant/toddler and preschool teacher and an early interventionist assistant for 8 years before transitioning to my current job. I also did tutoring for a few years for elementary school age kids when I was in college. I participated in different programs, such as PITC(Program for Infant/Toddler Care), to further my knowledge in the early childhood education field. Occasionally I babysit for family, friends, and other contacts, which I enjoy very much! Look forward to meeting your family! :)

“Brenda is very friendly and reliable. Our daughters loved her, would definitely recommend.”

Booked by 25 families in Capitola, CA

Hi families! I've been working as a full time nanny for 6 years, and babysitting in my free time. I stayed with two families before as a live in nanny, it was a great experience!! I love working with children. I've worked with infants and older kids ages between 3 months to 13 years old. I strive to help children reach their milestones by doing age appropriate activities. For instance, with infants tummy time, helping them sit by themselves, introducing soiled food or new foods, training them to walk, potty training, reading books to them and playing with them in a stimulus way. With toddlers and older kids we’ll be doing crafts such as drawing, painting, playing active games and being creative in an educational ways. I am a registered behavioral technician, I worked as a RBT working with children on the autism spectrum and children with behavioral development. A little about me: I am considered to be friendly, trustworthy, responsible and respectful. I am a good communicator, talk openly, follow instructions and take lead where need be. In my free time I love exploring the outdoors going on hikes or bike rides, I also love reading books or binging movies and I have a passion for videography and photography. *Qualifications* CPR and First Aid College Degree Able to provide references
