A little bit about me

Hi, my name is Ana Karen! I’m bilingual in English and Spanish and have a strong passion for caring for children. I first started working with kids while I was in college, and I’ve loved it ever since.

I enjoy creating safe, fun, and engaging environments where children can learn and grow. Some of my favorite activities include crafts, reading, outdoor play, and helping with homework. I’m also happy to help with light household tasks to support the family’s routine.

One thing families should know about me is that I’m caring, dependable, and always treat children with patience and respect. My top childcare skills are planning fun and educational activities, providing a safe and nurturing environment, and supporting kids with bilingual communication in English and Spanish.

I would love the opportunity to bring positive energy and reliable care to your family!

A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Jeremy Castillo, and I’m 22 years old. I use she/her pronouns, and one of the best ways to describe me is creative. I love finding new ways to express myself, whether that’s through arts and crafts, creating fun activities, or bringing ideas to life. I’ve been working professionally with children for the past five years through the Boys & Girls Club and COOL School. During that time, I’ve learned how to create fun, engaging, and supportive environments where kids can feel safe, encouraged, and excited to learn and play. I also come from a very large family, so caring for younger children has always been a natural part of my life. Being surrounded by cousins of all ages taught me patience, responsibility, and how important it is to make every child feel included and valued..

A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Brooke, and I’m a friendly, dependable, and caring person who genuinely enjoys working with children. I have experience babysitting and caring for my younger cousins, and I’ve always enjoyed spending time with kids and helping keep them happy, safe, and entertained.

I also have three years of customer service experience, which has helped me become patient, responsible, organized, and comfortable handling different situations. I’m attentive and always want the people I’m caring for to feel comfortable and supported.

I’m planning to start a dental assisting program in January, which will be on Saturdays, so I’m looking for a childcare opportunity that fits well with my schedule. I’d love to find a family I can build a trusting relationship with and become someone they can rely on.

I’m happy to help with playing, homework, simple meals, and daily routines. I’d love to get to know your family and see if I could be a good fit!

Understand Nanny Responsibilities in Santa Rosa, CA

Before beginning the search for a nanny, it’s important to understand what you’re looking for and if a nanny is the right choice for your child care needs. In hiring a nanny, first, you should think through what responsibilities you expect your nanny to handle. With that information, you can create a profile so that nannies can reach out to you. The boundaries for nannies duties vary from family to family. In general, a nanny is responsible for making sure your children’s needs are met, including things like ensuring they have opportunities to play and be active. When tasks go beyond child care, for example, housekeeping or meal preparation, it’s good practice to communicate these expectations with your nanny before hiring them. Along with the different duties that you ask for, experience and location can impact how much you should pay your nanny.

Santa Rosa Nanny Interviews

Once you start connecting with prospective nannies, the next step is a nanny interview. To make things a bit easier, here’s a list of some nanny interview questions to consider asking:

  • Do you have experience being a nanny?
  • How do you handle tantrums? Can you share an experience disciplining children?
  • What sort of household tasks are you open to doing?
  • Are you open to a live in arrangement in Santa Rosa? Do you have experience being a live in nanny?
  • Are you open to being a nanny in a nanny share?
  • Do you have any references?
  • Are you trained in First Aid or CPR in Santa Rosa?
  • Do you have a driver’s license in CA? Do you own a car?
  • What salary are you seeking? Are you open to being paid through direct-deposit, pay stubs?
  • What are your expectations around over-time pay and vacation time?

During the hiring process, it’s essential to ask for references, and by asking their references questions you gain a better understanding of they will fit in your family. As you get closer to hiring a nanny, be sure to run a background check to ensure your kids are in good hands. When evaluating a prospective nanny, it’s essential to make sure you’re setting the foundation for a good relationship with your nanny. You can do this by being clear about your expectations around nanny responsibilities and compensation, and of course, by being friendly and welcoming! And of course, as you learn how to hire a nanny, Nanny Lane's nanny services are here to help

Daycare vs. Hiring a Nanny

Choosing between putting your child in daycare and hiring a nanny can be a tough decision. While nannies are often more expensive, they provide individualized attention and flexibility. Daycares, on the other hand, prioritize socialization. Our Nanny vs Daycare guide can help you determine what's best for your family.
