A little bit about me
My name’s Holly - I’m a Neonatal ICU nurse with 15+ years of childcare and other youth+family services experience within allied healthcare, youth development and education.
I like families to (and most do!)
think of me as the 'bonus adult' - the extra heart and hands to love, support and care for you, your kids & household like they were my own.
My education has focused upon Maternal and Child Health through degrees in Global Health, Human Development, and my recent Masters in Nursing.
I love working with families and kids of all ages; my rates are flexible dependent on need (cooking, overnight, etc).
As I am a full time nurse, with a varying day/night schedule, my schedule is limited to short term or occasional care needs such as:
1) Infant and/or Postpartum Care (Overnight and/or Short-Term focused care and support)
2) Occasional Care (Date Nights; Babysitting; etc)
3) Overnight, As-Needed or Short Term Notice
4) Travel Nannying

A little bit about me
It is a pleasure to introduce myself to your family, my name is Maricela and I have been a Nanny for over 13+ years. As a nanny I have cared for children through infancy up to 10 years of age, as well as multiples of children and twins alike.
I love to say that this is the career path I have chosen for myself; I am deeply devoted to helping families in the manner that I know best. As a nanny my philosophy extends further than just caretaking-- I enjoy teaching, guiding and loving your children the way I would as my own.
The families I have assisted have been long term commitments, many of whom I have traveled abroad working full time as necessary. If you like to get to know more about me, inquire directly and I would get back to you at your earliest convenience.
Thank you for your time and I look forward to becoming a great addition to your family.
Updated 4/2/23: I have completed a Nanny training course/seminar, this allows me to provide your child with the utmost care.

How to Hire a Traveling Nanny in Santa Ana, CA
Nanny Lane helps you find a traveling nanny in Santa Ana, CA who can join your family on trips.
We offer nanny services including background checks, Agency, and nanny payroll. Start by posting a profile with a job description, and soon you can start connecting with nannies who fit your family.
What Is a Traveling Nanny?
A traveling nanny, also called a travel nanny, goes on trips with your family to care for the children, whether it is a vacation, a business trip, or an extended stay. Some families need a nanny who travels regularly, and others only for the occasional trip.
Common Responsibilities of Traveling Nannies in Santa Ana, CA
On the road, a traveling nanny keeps the children's routines going, supervises play and meals, and helps with logistics such as airports, car rides, and hotel rooms. They may care for the children while parents work or attend events, and often work longer or less predictable days than at home.
What to Consider Before You Hire
Discuss how often you travel and for how long, who pays for the nanny's flights, accommodation, and meals, how hours and days off work on a trip, and whether the nanny needs a passport. Put the terms in a written agreement so there are no surprises. Nannies with a valid passport and a flexible schedule are the best fit for frequent travel.
Traveling Nanny Interview Questions
Once you find a promising candidate, invite them for an interview to see if they would be a great fit for your family. Here are some questions you can ask:
- Are you comfortable traveling, including internationally, and do you have a valid passport?
- How much notice do you need for a trip?
- Have you cared for children while traveling before?
- How would you keep routines going in a hotel or an unfamiliar place?
- How do you handle hours, days off, and expenses on the road?
At this stage, request their references and ask their references some questions. After preparing the job offer or contract, we recommend that you run a background check before the start date.
