A little bit about me
Hi! My name is Lucas, I’m a 25-year-old French male nanny living in the Bay Area. I’ve been working with children since I was 18, and I’ve spent the last two years as a full-time au pair in the U.S. caring for multiple kids.
I’m very reliable, dynamic, and caring, and I love keeping children active through sports, outdoor activities, and creative play. I’m also a musician and singer-songwriter, and I enjoy sharing music and creativity with kids in a fun and positive way.
Families describe me as calm, trustworthy, and engaging, and I always focus on creating a safe, happy, and structured environment for children to grow.
I’d love to join a family where I can bring energy, kindness, and creativity every day.

Recent reference
"Amy is a very energetic, hardworking, clean & generous caretaker. She cared for our daughter from ages 6 months to 2.5 years and helped a lot around the house. She is very patient and holds a high bar for safety & cleanliness of our child and would do extra tasks around the house without asking. She proactively found fun things for our daughter to do around the city (free events, classes, zoo) and took her on the bus / muni for these outings without our prompting, which we were very happy about. When our daughter was sick and had trouble sleeping, she’d go into her room and hold her hand through the crib until she fell asleep. Our daughter is starting school now - we’re grateful to all the love and care Mimi has given our daughter!"

A little bit about me
Hi!
I’m Mina, I’m 22 years old and an Early Childhood Development and Education student. Part of my career building has given me ample experience as well as my teenage jobs (babysitting, tutoring, nanny)! I come from a huge family (12 kids) and being the third oldest, I’ve pretty much been taking care of kids since birth 😂! I work with all ages, prioritizing: activities, routine, meal prep, cleaning, and HW help! I know a lot of families are looking for someone a little older but hey, I know how to speaking the new lingo! Understanding children’s way of communicating can go so far, they’ll have a new “bestie” but also a friendly authoritative figure when Mom and Dad aren’t around!
I’d love to get connected with one of you beautiful families!
