A little bit about me

Hello! My passion throughout my life has been with children. I grew up helping with the neighborhood children and the childcare at my church. As soon as I turned 13 years old, I was babysitting around the neighborhood and the rest is history. During my time at SBCC, I was a manger at Natural Cafe and later became a Montessori Teacher's Assistant in Goleta. When I got into CSUN, I moved to Northridge and continued to be a caretaker for families, working with children ages 1-16 years old. After I got my bachelor degree in Deaf Studies (I am fluent in American Sign Language), I was a preschool teacher for 6 years at a Montessori in Calabasas. During this time I was also a travel nanny in the summer for some of the families at the school. Now I am back home in Santa Barbara and looking forward to helping families any way I can! I am happy to cook, clean, do laundry, tutor, entertain, take care of pets, make lunches for the next day, etc. I am excited to connect with you!

A little bit about me

Helloo, my names Chey. I am a 23 year old female from Western Pennsylvania. I graduated High school in June of 2021 and went into college right after. I was in college for almost 2 years. I eventually want to go back but not at this point of my life.
My work experience consists of hospitality (serving), retail (management), caregiving/cna (for special needs/elderly.)
Since I was 14 if I wasn’t in school, working, or with family/friends I was babysitting. I have experience with ages from newborns to adults. I desire to be a live in-nanny because it will be constant work, let me be around people and be a positive impact. It would also let me travel the world alongside building relationships in my path.

How to Hire a Traveling Nanny in Santa Barbara, CA

Nanny Lane helps you find a traveling nanny in Santa Barbara, 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 Barbara, 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.
