Hi! I’m nanny Quinn :)

I was born and raised in the Bay Area! I enjoy outdoor activities including hiking, going to the beach, playing soccer & running. I consider myself outdoorsy, and think it's important to take advantage of what the bay has to offer. I am also a creative person, so art (more specifically video production) has been a great outlet and passion of mine. This led me to attend San Francisco State University as a film major, with a Human Development minor. As a childcare provider, I enjoy sharing my love of the outdoors and creativity/art with kids. I have over ten years of experience including babysitting and nannying. I think it's important to provide children with a fun, fulfilling and enriched environment. I am an enthusiastic and responsible person and look forward to meeting you and your kids!
