A little bit about me

Hello! My name is Sophie. Here’s a little bit about me: I currently am in my last quarter at UCSC in anthropology. During the summer season I am assistant wedding planner. In my off time I enjoy surfing and making pottery. I am great with kids and can help make your life easier through chores, making meals, pickups and drop offs (you name it!). I enjoy allowing kids to use their full creativity as much as possible. Ideally I like to take kids out in nature and teach them the little wonders of the world. I hope to find the ideal family to work for! Looking forward to meeting you!

A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Faviana 💕💕. I love spending time with children and have 2 years of experience caring for them. I consider myself a kind, responsible, and very caring person, qualities that allow me to connect easily with children and their families. Additionally, I speak Spanish, which can be an advantage for families looking for a nanny who can communicate in Spanish ✨.

I am committed to providing the best possible care, ensuring that children are happy and well cared for. If you are looking for someone to take care of your children with love and dedication, I would love the opportunity to talk with you. Thank you for your time and consideration! 🩷🙏🏻
