A little bit about me

Hi future nanny family, I hope you are doing amazing!

My name is Nikita, I'm 25 and originally from Germany. I am currently going to school to study Psychology and Nutrition at SJSU.
Prior to my studies I was an Au Pair for 3. 5 years and have been a nanny for the past 2. 5 years.

I am fully vaccinated and CPR certified for all ages.
I have 8 years of experience and been full time nannying the past 6. 5 years ages 0-12. Most recently I cared for 2 families who included an 8 mont old and 3-year-old, as well as a 3, 7 and 9-year-old. As an Au Pair, I worked with mostly 3 kids per family ages 2-9. Recently I tutored college students at my college in English, Biology

I love taking kids outdoors, reading, and doing crafts. Watching the kids grow and helping parents makes this work so fulfilling, which is why I love being a nanny. I'd love to meet your family if you think i'm a great fit feel free to send a message!

"Natali was a Godsend to our family. I had to go back to work after maternity leave and hated the idea of leaving my baby in day care with strangers. We met Natali through a mutual friend and the connection she had with my daughter was instant. They truly love each other and it has given me such comfort and peace of mind when I leave the house each day knowing my daughter has Natali. Natali sings songs and plays music, reads stories, and is constantly next to our daughter wherever she goes. She does our daughter's laundry and washes the dishes. When the baby is sleeping, she'll dust or mop or vacuum, generally cleaning up around the house, which is so helpful. She was always on time, usually early, and very flexible if I had to work late. She uses public transportation, which I know makes her day very long, so if I did have to work late I would offer to drive her home. She's been a great blessing to us and we will miss her now that I get to stay home. Happy to share more info"

A little bit about me

I'm looking for a family who needs roughly 4 days per week of regular care. There is flexibility though.

I'm a fun but firm babysitter, crunchy, and Christian, looking for a like minded family. I generally love taking kids out and about to libraries and parks. I’ve babysat on and off since I was 14, have been a live-in nanny, and was with a family full time with a 1 and 2 year old for a few years after college. I’m comfortable with all ages.

I just gave birth to my first daughter in September and am looking for a family that doesn’t mind her being with me and or a family who is looking to have their child with another kid, but not in a daycare setting. This could work well for a 3 or 4 year old girl, for example, who likes babies and would enjoy being around a baby all day. I’m looking to start in April but could start earlier if needed.
