A little bit about me

Caring for and teaching children has always been my greatest passion. I previously owned a daycare in Pacific Highlands, where I cared for children from infants to age 5. I have extensive experience with infants-providing nurturing care, establishing feeding and nap routines, and supporting early developmental milestones. Before owning my daycare, I worked as a nanny for several families, gaining years of hands-on experience with children of all ages.

In addition to childcare, I enjoy tutoring children in German and offering swim lessons. I believe in helping kids learn, grow, and explore the world around them in a safe, loving, and positive environment. Their curiosity, energy, and creativity inspire me daily, and it brings me joy to help them build confidence and feel supported.

A little bit about me

Hi! I’m Ariana, a caring and dependable 29-year-old babysitter with a passion for working with children of all abilities.

I have hands-on experience providing childcare for a family, along with completing an internship at a middle school where I supported both teachers and students. I'm also experienced in working with children who have special needs, and I bring patience, empathy, and understanding to every situation.

I’m fluent in both English and Spanish, CPR certified, and always come prepared with age-appropriate games, crafts, and fun activities. Whether it’s imaginative play, homework help, or calming bedtime routines, I aim to create a safe, engaging, and nurturing space for each child.

I’d love the opportunity to be a trusted support for your family!

A little bit about me

Hello, my name is Angelica! I have a 1 year old baby girl and an amazing husband. I have been a nanny for about 3 years and have taken care of a variety of ages! From newborn to teens, and I’ve truly enjoyed getting to meet every single one of them! It’s super important to me to not just build a relationship and a bond with the kiddos but also with the parents! My values are my faith, family, and health! A little bit of my background, I am the only daughter. I grew up with all boys, so to see them exemplify how it looks like to take care, nurture, and love me has given me the reason to why I wanted to take care of families and their little ones. I cannot wait to meet who I get to be lucky with on joining along. Let’s definitely chat more and get to know each other.
