A little bit about me
My name is Aramara, and I have a deep passion for babysitting. Currently, I'm pursuing my dream of becoming a pediatric nurse. Before transferring to nursing school, I studied elementary and childhood development for a few semesters, which has given me a solid foundation in understanding and nurturing young minds.I love being a sitter because it allows me to create a safe, fun, and educational environment for children. There's nothing more rewarding than seeing a child grow and learn under your care. My nurturing and organic energy helps me connect with kids on a personal level, making them feel comfortable and happy. This hands-on experience has taught me patience, responsibility, and the importance of creating a loving atmosphere.Thank you for considering me as your sitter. I look forward to the opportunity to support your family's needs and contribute to your child's growth and happiness!

A little bit about me
Hi there! My name is Tate :) I’m 20 years old & I’m a college student from Ventura, California. I recently moved to Santa Cruz for school & work for a surf camp part time. I love to surf, read, paint & explore! I absolutely love kids. I grew up learning how to take care of kids & be a mentor/friend to each & every one of them that I was around. I was a nanny for a family in Ventura for about a year until they moved to Texas. I’m hoping I can continue to nanny here in Santa Cruz & help your kids grow, learn & succeed while also doing my job!

A little bit about me
Hi, I'm Ireland. I've been working with kids since I was 15 and love it. I started by watching my neighbor's two little girls. Over the last few years, I've worked primarily with kids age 4-16, but I love kids of all ages. If it's nice out, I like to take the kids outside, but if not, I whip out my art skills or teaching them to cook :) I am happy to work in a home with pets because I absolutely love animals too. In my free time, I love hiking, playing with my dogs, and cooking.

Nanny Andrea
"We have been lucky enough to have Andrea nanny our one and sometimes two boys. She’s truly a part of the family. She’s always on time, entertaining the boys, and even cleans when the boys are napping. They love her so much they cry when she leaves! Our boys enjoy being outdoors most of the day and require A LOT of energy. I never worry about their safety or comfort. I 10/10 recommend her."

She brought him toys and played the flute for him to introduce him to new things. I am very grateful for the care she provided."
