A little bit about me
I began my work with children at a young age caring for infants and then moving up to preschool teacher. I received a Child development Associate credential at that time and also helped to accredit 2 schools for the National Association for the Education of Young Children. I worked as a preschool teacher for 7 years prior to my move to California. At that time I became a nanny for a family that I stayed with from the time the children were born until college. Once they were out of house I became the meal planner and house/ business assistant for the parents. I have also taught Zumba fitness for the last 15 years. I am a singer and dancer. I love music and books. Singing and reading and storytelling are my passions. I am a mother to a grown awesome son who has been the light of my life.

Hello! I know how hard it can be to jungle your career & take care of your children. I think it's extremely important to have a dependable, reliable, and honest sitter. I love kids & love to develop great chemistry. I'm energetic, funny, caring, & love to encourage & challenge the kids I nanny for. I'm always on the lookout for new exciting educational activities because I know how important that can be! I'm very organized, clean & routine based. I think it's SO important to keep the babies/kids on a routine to keep them on a healthy schedule. I'm also very familiar w/ the kitchen. I cook healthy meals/snack. I have great experience driving kids to their activities w/ a clean driving history. I have great experience w/ newborns (7 years +). My experience goes as far as diaper changing, bottle feeding, to transitioning to real foods, monitoring naps, and supporting potty-training! References from all my past and current families available-upon request. I look forward to speaking to you!

A little bit about me
With over a decade of experience as a nanny, I've enjoyed working (and playing) with children of all ages from newborns to teens, including twins. In addition, I've been a gymnastics coach, tutor, and babysitter. I can teach beginner to early intermediate piano starting at age 3 (or whenever they learn the alphabet) up to any age. I empathetically work with toddlers, children and teens that have ADHD, ODD, and anxiety.
Aside from my experience, I adore children, and I enjoy forming a bond with healthy boundaries with a child over time. I've dealt with all kinds of behaviors, temperaments, and sibling conflict and can confidently navigate challenging situations in a way that gives the child tools to cope independently over time. I have a natural skill for reading the emotions and intentions behind the behavior, and can convey my understanding of them and gentle guidance in a way children are receptive to.
