Part-Time Nanny Available in Montecito, CA: Zoie D.
Hi! My name is Zoie and I am a college student looking for a steady part time nanny/ babysitting position. I have 2 years of experience working with kids through after school enrichment programs, summer/ science camp, and the local Boys and Girls Club. I especially enjoy arts and crafts, and can always come up with a fun activity on a whim. I value giving children the freedom to learn through experience while being there to guide them along the way. When challenges arise, I help them understand their feelings and work toward a solution rather than solving the problem for them. If this aligns with your style of parenting then I would love to meet!

Part-Time Nanny Available in Montecito, CA: Heidi S.
Hi, I’m Heidi! I grew up on the East Coast with three brothers and earned my Bachelor’s in Communication from Denison University before moving to Ventura three years ago for the health, outdoor, and ocean lifestyle.
Nannying is where I got my start — I’ve cared for children from 6 months to 7 years old. Since then I’ve worked in marketing and operations, juggling several clients at once, so I’m a calm problem-solver and strong organizer who keeps schedules and routines running smoothly. I’m happy to travel and can help coordinate trips. My hospitality background is Forbes Five-Star trained, and I love building genuine connections with people.
A former competitive ice hockey player, I now play pickleball in Ojai. I love to cook and paint- and I’m always up for arts, crafts, and activities with kids.
I’m nearly finished with my Functional Medicine Health Coach certification, so I bring a holistic approach — healthy meals, outdoor play, and simple wellness woven into the day!
