A little bit about me

A little bit about me…
Hi, my name is Somjai (Mui). I'm an empty nester. My previous nanny job was full time taking care of a two years old boy. The family moved to New York last July.

I'm a caring and loving Thai-American mother of two (college students). I have a Bachelor degree. I can speak fluent English, Thai, and some Mandarin. I was a college Thai language teacher when I lived in Singapore. I love spending time with kids doing outdoor activities, like walking, and going to the park/playground. I love cooking Thai and international food.
I currently live in Marina District, San Francisco.
I'm a very highly responsible, lots of energy, calm and kind personality.

A little bit about me

Hi, I’m Tairah :). I have extensive experience as a live in nanny and have worked closely with families supporting daily routines, childcare, and household needs. I recently worked as a personal and executive assistant in a full time office setting, but I am currently a student and am looking to transition back into nannying to better balance my school and work responsibilities. Caring for children has always come naturally to me, and nannying is something I am genuinely passionate about and take pride in doing well. It has consistently allowed me to manage my coursework while providing attentive, dependable care to families. I am open to both live in and live out positions.
