A little bit about me

I’m a full-time student at UCSD and a member of the university’s dance team, which has taught me discipline, teamwork, and creativity. I am the oldest sibling of three (ages 16, 8, and 4) and have been helping care for them since they were babies, giving me years of hands-on experience with infants, toddlers, and school-aged children. I am loyal, dependable, and as a Catholic, I value faith, kindness, and respect, qualities I bring into every childcare role. I love working with kids and creating positive, engaging environments where they can learn and grow. My background as a caregiver and dance teacher has strengthened my ability to be patient, organized, and fun.

A little bit about me

Energetic nanny who is a recent college graduate, fulfilled by helping families grow and prosper. Reliable and trustworthy, and adept in finding or creating engaging activities to meet mental, physical, and educational needs. Eager to find a full-time nanny position, and looking to relocate asap once a position is obtained. Open to live-in, however I have a 2yo dog so the family would have to be pet-friendly. I plan on having her in day care, or hiring a dog walker.
