Find a wedding babysitter in Santa Cruz, CA

I am a 21-year-old Brazilian nanny with around seven years of experience caring for children, especially infants from 0 to 11 months. I have always been passionate about childcare—ever since my first contact with a baby, even when I was still a child myself, I naturally developed a strong caregiver instinct. I am CPR and First Aid certified, I drive, and I can speak both Portuguese and English. I truly believe caring for children is a mutual exchange: while I help shape their early development with love, patience, and responsibility, they also teach me and help me grow as a person. I genuinely enjoy providing safe, attentive, and loving care to these little human beings.
