A little bit about me
Hello families, my name is Josephine and I have 3 year old Australian Sheppard and a 1 year old husky pup with my wonderful husband. We are moving to the Bay Area and I’m looking for a full-time many position upon arriving. I have been working as a professional nanny for 3 years now and I absolutely love my job. Working with kids is what I’m most passionate about. My goal is to assist you in raising your little ones to be the best versions of themselves. Outside of my regular duties as a nanny I like to focus on teaching children emotional intelligence and mindfulness. I’m very playful and love to participate in whatever games your kiddos are interested in. I love sports, board games, dancing around, art projects, reading aloud, and any outdoors activity. My husband is a native Spanish speaker and I have been learning too so if your little one is learning Spanish we are more than happy to assist with that as well. I look forward to talking with you and leaving more about your family!

A little bit about me
Curiosity, compassion and humor! These are my core values as a professional caregiver with more than seven years experience developing children in and outside of the classroom.
I have worked as a professional nanny for more than 7 years, offering active listening, intentionality, and a growth-mindset for all children. I create environments for kids to evolve emotionally and intellectually. With a child-centric approach to care, I keep kids laughing, intellectually challenged, and asking questions of themselves and the world around them. I have a personal passion for the Montessori method which is most easily expressed in my commitment to open communication, experimental learning, and a community mindset. Outdoor activities and skill-building through play is paramount!
I have extensive experience working with fast-paced and dynamic HNW households, traveling frequently with families and providing assistance and support as needed.
