A little bit about me

Hello! I am 27 years old, a graduate of Virginia Tech (Go Hokies!) and I spent the last 5 years working in a corporate setting and babysitting on the side. Previous to that, I worked for 4 summers at a day camp with children 3-14.

I recently moved to San Diego with my husband, and I’ve decided I want to pivot my career to work that feels more meaningful and fulfills me. Providing reliable, safe, fun, child care has always been a passion of mine, and with my recent relocation, I couldn’t think of a better time for a fresh start.

While studying Psychology at Virginia Tech, I focused on Childhood Development where I learned about age appropriate behaviors and milestones. Coupling that knowledge with my love of children, I’m able to provide a strong foundation to the fun.

A little bit about me

I've been doing ABA therapy with autistic kids for the past year, and have loved it. Recently I have been volunteering a lot of my time abroad, in children's homes as well as in some medical clinics in Africa. I'm an adventurous spirit who will pour myself into your kiddos. I love to dance and sing, music is a big part of my day. I'm happy to help around the house, I'm always flexible! Communicate with what you need and I am more than happy to help!
Beyond the fun stuff, I am a responsible adult. I pay attention to the little details, and am very aware of my surroundings. I am well traveled and know how to react in emergency situations. I know how to get serious when the need arises but I definitely find the value in keeping kids lives light and adventurous.

A little bit about me

Hello, my name is Byanka and I’m graduating this semester with an associate degree in Allied Health. I am a practicing Catholic, meaning there are a few time slots out of my week I am not available. I have lots of time during the week and my hours are flexible. I have 3 college credits in early child development. The majority of my studies are in biology and health so I would be open to a family with special needs or administering medication. I am a veteran of the Navy, and still find great pleasure in an active lifestyle, keeping tidy, and an organized schedule. I play tennis occasionally and am an avid skier. I speak English and Spanish, have a clean driving record, valid passport and willing to travel with the family. I’m excited to meet you, and help support your growing families needs.

A little bit about me

I am a recent graduate from Oregon State University with over 10 years of childcare experience. I am the Aunt to 6 nieces and nephews ages 3-11, so caring for children at all ages and stages is my specialty. I don’t take for granted the role that a nanny plays in the child’s life, and find it to be such a gift to have the opportunity to be a light and role model in their lives. I am a very motivated and hands on nanny, and am passionate about getting outside to inspire an active imagination and appreciation for nature from a young age.
