I have been working in the medical field for the past 20 years, and now I’m looking to do something that gives me also joy, and nothing better than see a child growing and learning, as I’ve done it before and really enjoyed.
Im moving back to California from San Antonio Texas, and would like very much to find a family that I could be a great helper taking care of their child.I do have great references, and confidence that you won’t regret to have me as your child’s nanny.More information upon request.

A little bit about me
Hi! My name is Lucy. I’m a caring, dependable nanny with two years of experience working with young children, including special needs students, and I currently work at an elementary school supporting children with diverse needs. I love creating fun, engaging days by planning local outings like parks, walks, zoos, and other hands-on adventures.
I’m one of the oldest in a loving family of seven kids, and I strongly value supporting healthy family relationships and reinforcing parents’ preferences and routines. I’m also a big advocate for limiting screen time and encouraging real-life experiences, outdoor play, creativity, and curiosity.
I’m happy to help with light housekeeping, simple meals, and keeping things organized. I love the outdoors, working out, traveling, and animals, and I strive to bring patience, kindness, and reliability to every family I work with.

A little bit about me
I am a recent college graduate with a degree in design and experience working with children ages 4-12. In addition to babysitting, I have worked in after-school childcare settings supporting groups of 40+ children, where I helped facilitate safe, structured, and engaging activities. I am CPR and First Aid certified and prioritize creating a supportive environment where children can thrive. I enjoy guiding children through hands-on activities in the arts and STEM, and encouraging curiosity through creative, interactive play. My background in design strengthens my ability to plan experiences that are both fun and developmentally supportive. I am organized, reliable, have my own transportation, and bring a calm, empathetic presence when working with children and families.
