A little bit about me

Hello, my name is Emily, I am a loving, empathetic, and attentive full-time nanny and college student. I have been working in public and private childcare since 2018 and switched over to private childcare in 2020 as a Nanny, Household Assistant, and mother’s helper! I have experience as a Montessori preschool teacher and STEM-based Childcare educator. I switched over to private childcare after realizing I wanted to be able to create more meaningful and close relationships with children and their families! I am passionate about women’s health (emotional, physical, and mental), fostering a nurturing environment that allows for the development of each child’s social, emotional, and cognitive development, and social Justice! I am CPR and First aid certified as well as COVID vaccinated and boosted! I look forward to speaking with you!

A little bit about me

Hi, my name is Paula. I am a nanny with 10 years of experience. Besides caring for your little one, I can help with cooking/meal preparation and laundry. I'm 40 years old. I'm from Guatemala. I have 4 children aged 22, 20, 14 and 8, two in schools in San Francisco. Unfortunately, the family I am currently with is moving to Miami so I am looking for a new full time position from 8:30 to 5 or 5:30. I take little ones out to parks and bookstores and we read and sing together. I make sure they go down for their naps on time and keep the kids area clean. I also cook for the kids and do their laundry. I will be available in January. It might be a little early, but I need to make sure I have a new position at the start of the year. Please contact me for more information.
God bless!
