A little bit about me
Hello families!
My name is Flor and I am a freshman at SBCC.
With 8 years of experience under my belt, I'm highly skilled in working with children of all ages, including multiples and those with special needs. My extensive babysitting experience dates back to when I was 18 years old, and for the past four years, I've been working with the same family. I've completed a course in early childhood development, which has proven to be highly helpful in my nanny years. Being bilingual in Spanish and English, I can offer your children the added benefit of learning a second language. As a responsible nanny, I'm certified in first aid and CPR, and I'll always prioritize your children's safety.
If you're in search of a compassionate and dependable nanny, look no further. I'd be honored to provide the care and support your children need to thrive.

"Hi Mom’s that are looking for a nanny starting in 2023!
We will sadly be letting our nanny go in 2023 when our daughter starts preschool. My children (my son is almost 11, my daughter is 8 and my little one almost 3) are truly better because she is in our lives. She has been an incredible part of our family and I feel so grateful for the time my children got with her.
She is primarily a Spanish speaker and has a background as an assistant teacher. She is so incredible with our kids and always comes up with fun and creative projects to keep them entertained. I sometimes work from home and hear laughs on the other side of the door most of the afternoon.
If you end up in contact with her I am more than happy to be contacted for references!"

"I am pleased to recommend Teresa Ruvalcaba, who worked as our family’s nanny from May 2016 through July 2020. During that time, she cared for our child from 5 months to 5 years old and became a trusted part of our family.
Teresa was reliable, responsible, warm, and nurturing. She consistently prioritized our child’s safety and well-being, communicated openly, followed our directions, and respected our family’s routines. She also took initiative and managed her responsibilities confidently.
Her duties included preparing meals and snacks, feeding and diapering, maintaining nap and daily routines, assisting with personal care, providing safe transportation, planning age-appropriate activities, and keeping our child’s areas and laundry clean and organized. She also taught our child Spanish through their everyday activities.
We recommend Teresa without hesitation to any family seeking a dependable, capable, and caring nanny.
Sincerely,
Tania Lewis"

A little bit about me
Hello! My passion throughout my life has been with children. I grew up helping with the neighborhood children and the childcare at my church. As soon as I turned 13 years old, I was babysitting around the neighborhood and the rest is history. During my time at SBCC, I was a manger at Natural Cafe and later became a Montessori Teacher's Assistant in Goleta. When I got into CSUN, I moved to Northridge and continued to be a caretaker for families, working with children ages 1-16 years old. After I got my bachelor degree in Deaf Studies (I am fluent in American Sign Language), I was a preschool teacher for 6 years at a Montessori in Calabasas. During this time I was also a travel nanny in the summer for some of the families at the school. Now I am back home in Santa Barbara and looking forward to helping families any way I can! I am happy to cook, clean, do laundry, tutor, entertain, take care of pets, make lunches for the next day, etc. I am excited to connect with you!

A little bit about me
Currently looking for part-time morning hours with one kid, ideally under 2.
My passions lie in the outdoors and creative expression. I've spent the last 2 years caring for my grandparents who are in their 90s, in the heart of LA. Before that I worked in outdoor education including nature pre-school, nature day camp, and sleep away expedition programs. Residing in Colorado, New Hampshire, and Maine. I also nannied during college.
I grew up visiting Santa Barbara with my grandparents, and am now calling it home. I live aboard a 35 foot sailboat with my boyfriend, which we plan to put to use in the coming years.
I spent the first 10 years of my life in Paris, France, so I am fluent in french. I am also proficient in Spanish, as I have been living with my Ecuadorian Grandmother.
Care-taking is what I am good at, I love to cook and I love children.
My approach is centered around play, celebrating their curiosity and sense of wonder.

How to Hire a Bilingual Nanny in Santa Barbara, CA
Nanny Lane helps you find a bilingual nanny in Santa Barbara, CA who can care for your children in more than one language.
We offer nanny services including background checks, Agency, and nanny payroll. Start by posting a profile with a job description, and soon you can start connecting with nannies who fit your family.
What Is a Bilingual Nanny?
A bilingual nanny speaks English and at least one other language, such as Spanish, French, Mandarin, or Portuguese, and uses both with the children. Some families want a native speaker to introduce a second language from an early age, and others need a nanny who can communicate with a relative or care for a child who speaks another language at home.
Common Responsibilities of Bilingual Nannies in Santa Barbara, CA
A bilingual nanny handles the usual childcare tasks, such as meals, play, outings, and routines, while speaking the second language during everyday activities. Many also read stories, sing songs, and play games in that language, so children pick it up naturally rather than from flashcards.
What to Consider Before You Hire
Decide how much of the day you want in the second language and how fluent the nanny needs to be. Ask about their background in the language and any experience helping children learn it. Fluency varies, so it helps to have part of the interview in the language. If you need a specific language, mention it in your job description so nannies can find you.
Bilingual Nanny Interview Questions
Once you find a promising candidate, invite them for an interview to see if they would be a great fit for your family. Here are some questions you can ask:
- Which languages do you speak, and how did you learn them?
- How would you use the second language with my children during the day?
- Have you helped children learn or keep up a second language before?
- Are you comfortable speaking only in that language for part of the day?
- Are you trained in First Aid or CPR?
At this stage, request their references and ask their references some questions. After preparing the job offer or contract, we recommend that you run a background check before the start date.
