A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Paloma, and I’ve been caring for children for over 12 years. I’ve worked with kids from 8 months to 14 years old and truly love what I do. My childcare journey began in middle school, and since then I’ve supported families, daycares, and schools in San Francisco, San Jose, and Burlingame. Before moving to Santa Rosa, I worked at both a daycare and an elementary school, and I’ve cared for several wonderful families along the way.
I’m passionate about creating fun, engaging, and safe experiences for kids. Whether we’re playing games, doing crafts, or exploring outdoors, I make sure children feel comfortable, supported, and heard. I value consistency and routines, while encouraging kids’ personalities to shine.
Families can count on me for open communication and reliability. I also drive a safe 2016 Jeep Patriot that can transport up to three kids or two car seats. If you’re seeking a dependable, caring, and experienced childcare provider, I’d love to support your family!

The most important part about being a nanny...

The most important part of being a nanny goes far beyond simply supervising children—it’s about building trust, connection, and consistency. Children thrive when they feel safe, supported, and loved, and being a nanny means becoming a steady, reassuring presence in their everyday lives.
It’s about showing up with patience on the tough days and celebrating the small victories on the good ones. It’s listening to their stories, guiding them through challenges, and encouraging their curiosity as they grow into their unique selves.
At its heart, nannying is about creating a balance—providing structure and safety, while also fostering joy, imagination, and adventure. The real reward isn’t just in helping with routines or milestones, but in knowing you’ve made a lasting impact on a child’s sense of security, confidence, and happiness.

The most important part about being a nanny...

One of the most rewarding parts of being a nanny is watching children discover the world—whether they’re bravely trying something new or exploring all the possibilities their imagination has to offer. I love creating a fun, supportive environment where they feel safe to be curious, learn, and grow. And of course, some of the best moments come from listening to their endless, silly stories—the kind that make you laugh and remind you how magical childhood really is.
In the end, my favorite nanny moments aren’t just about milestones—they’re about connection. The laughter, the hugs, the trust, and the countless ways children remind us to slow down and find joy in the simple things.
