Nanny Lane is an easy and safe place for finding nannies
I thoroughly enjoy being in the presence of children. I strongly feel that my purpose in life is to be a positive influence and role model in their lives.
My name is Caleesa and I love children! I am an experienced nanny of infants/twins/multiples and preschool teacher for 20 years. I am also mother to two beautiful children. My philosophy is that, children are capable of teaching adults how to see the world from a child's view. I have chosen to leave the traditional nanny field and work from home, in order to raise my children. With this said, I am able to care for one families children full time, or multiple families children part-time. If your seeking a nannyshare arrangement, I am your lady!
I provide a developmentally appropriate child proofed environment to host children from 0-5. In my experience I've learned the importance of constant color and print stimuli in a child's daily atmosphere, coupled with song, art and dance. I practice beginners ASL in care daily with children, as I believe sign language is a great non-verbal communication tool for children.

Understand Nanny Responsibilities in San Ramon, CA
Before beginning the search for a nanny, it’s important to understand what you’re looking for and if a nanny is the right choice for your child care needs. In hiring a nanny, first, you should think through what responsibilities you expect your nanny to handle. With that information, you can create a profile so that nannies can reach out to you. The boundaries for nannies duties vary from family to family. In general, a nanny is responsible for making sure your children’s needs are met, including things like ensuring they have opportunities to play and be active. When tasks go beyond child care, for example, housekeeping or meal preparation, it’s good practice to communicate these expectations with your nanny before hiring them. Along with the different duties that you ask for, experience and location can impact how much you should pay your nanny.
