A little bit about me

Hi there! I am a professional nanny looking for a new family in the San Diego area. Working with children has always been my passion; with 7 years and a wide range of professional experience, I promise to provide the best care for your child/ children. My creative and active personality make it easy to keep things fun and interesting for the kids, while also being sure to maintain a safe, secure, and welcoming environment. Early education is crucial in a child's development, and during the COVID-19 pandemic I assisted with online schooling and provided additional tutoring. The previous 2 families I worked with even accredited me with teaching their 5-year-olds how to read! All in all, my number one goal is to ensure the best experience for both child(ren) and parent(s) in the most productive way possible!
