A little bit about me

Hi families! I'm a caring, energetic, and experienced childcare professional with over ten years of experience working with kids of all ages. Currently, I’m a preschool teacher, and I’ve also worked with elementary-aged children at the Coalition for Hispanic Services. Before that, I was a full-time nanny for four years, caring for three amazing kids in San Francisco. I love creating fun, engaging activities that spark creativity and learning, whether it’s arts and crafts, outdoor adventures, or silly dance parties! I'm CPR and First Aid certified, super organized, and always ready to jump in and help keep things running smoothly. I’m looking for a full-time nannying role with a wonderful family—let’s chat and see if we’re a great fit!
