A little bit about me
Hello! My name is Kayla Hatashita and I am an incoming junior at UCSC studying biology. I study biology because I wish to go to Med school and become a pediatrician. I have sung since I was a child and I have taught dance to children ages 4-12 for 4 years now. I also volunteered at my church's after-school program assisting special needs students. Would love to chat with anyone looking for a responsible, caring, and attentive nanny!

A little bit about me
I'm currently an online behavior technician for children on the spectrum a couple days a week. I'm the oldest of 7 and I watched my younger brothers and sisters to help our parents. I have experience nannying a sweet toddler, but I love kids of all ages. Outdoors or indoors, it's important for children to be engaged! In my free time I enjoy sketching, reading, biking and yoga.

Nanny Andrea
"We have been lucky enough to have Andrea nanny our one and sometimes two boys. She’s truly a part of the family. She’s always on time, entertaining the boys, and even cleans when the boys are napping. They love her so much they cry when she leaves! Our boys enjoy being outdoors most of the day and require A LOT of energy. I never worry about their safety or comfort. I 10/10 recommend her."

Nanny Silvana
"Silvana was a very nurturing nanny. She had the difficult task of being the first nanny to care for my 6 month old son. She knew what to do and helped my son quickly overcome the separation anxiety. She brought him toys and played the flute for him to introduce him to new things. I am very grateful for the care she provided."
