A little bit about me
With a strong background in caregiving and child development, I am confident in my ability to provide exceptional care for your children. Growing up as the middle child in a family of three, I developed a natural aptitude for caregiving, helping with everything from diaper changes to daily routines, especially through my mother’s in-home daycare.
Professionally, I've engaged with children in various roles. As a swim instructor, I taught kids aged 3 to 10, fostering their confidence and skills. As a Spring Break Camp Counselor with "Play Marin," I supervised over 30 children aged 5 to 12, honing my group management skills and creating engaging activities.
Additionally, I have over three years of babysitting experience in the Bay Area, caring for children aged 2 to 10. I enjoy activities like arts and crafts, building with Legos, and reading, and I’m skilled in meal prep and cooking. Feel free to reach out for references!

A little bit about me
I’m currently a Registered Behavior Analysis Interventionist who is First Aid/AED/CPR certified and enjoys working with young children. I’m looking to make extra income and thought I could do that through doing something I enjoy like playing with children and making sure they’re safe and are having fun while their parent(s) are away. I have experience with special needs children ages 3-10, have a degree in psychology, and have taken Early Childhood Education courses. Also fluent in Swedish and proficient in French.
Looking to start as a summertime nanny/babysitter from around mid-June to around mid-July, and then would be available for weeknights and weekends starting August.

A little bit about me
I am a former special educator who misses supporting families and children. I enjoy the how present children are in the world, willing to grow and learn with a giggle along the way. I have learned from they in life.
I'm an outdoors enthusiast, art lovers and happy cook.
A day may look like making pancakes for breakfast (or whatever is best for the child's diet), a light cleaning of the room after we read at least three books. I pack a snack for a morning in the park. We swing and meet a neighbor friend at the park. A long walk back to house. I make a lunch and then down for nap. As the child is napping I do a little light cleaning. Where your child wakes up slow we sing some songs and play musical instruments (this helps build math skills). Then with have a small tea party or game of indoor soft volleyball. By this point in the Mom or Dad will be coming home from work.
