A little bit about me

It Takes a Village, Mama, Co is all about helping moms take a breath, enjoy a moment for themselves, and spend quality time with their little ones.
My aspiration is to become a midwife or doula, and I began this business to gain practical experience supporting mothers and their newborn, infant, toddler, preschooler, and school-aged children.

My vision as a midwife and doula is to provide comprehensive support throughout the perinatal period, including pregnancy, birth, and postpartum journey.

I’ve been caring for children on and off since 2015, babysitting kids ages 2–10. I’ve worked in healthcare for over 10 years, mostly as a medical assistant across various specialties, including a year in pediatrics. Currently, I’m a part-time nursing student and Patient Administrative Specialist at Stanford Healthcare. I’m certified in MA, CNA, CPT, and CPR.
Outside of work and school, you’ll find me dancing at Volaré Studios, it’s my favorite way to recharge.

The most important part about being a nanny...

To me, the most important part of being a nanny is truly understanding and supporting the needs of both the child and the family. I love the term "Mommy Helper" because it reflects the collaborative role I play—being attentive to the parents' goals, easing their daily routines, and creating a harmonious environment where everyone feels cared fo

My experience with special needs children...

While I haven't had the opportunity to work with children with special needs yet, I'm enthusiastic about learning and contributing in any way I can.

The most important part about being a nanny...

One of my favorite moments as a nanny was when the 5-year-old I care for, who’s learning about kindness, surprised me with a bag of cookies and thanked me for helping her mom. It was such a sweet gesture that made me feel truly appreciated. I also care for her 8-month-old sister, and being able to gently soothe her to sleep was incredibly rewarding. These small moments remind me why I love what I do.
