"You get what you pay for, and quality has a price. We interviewed several nannies and Shelly was, by far, the best one.
Our son was not easy at the beginning, and her proactiveness made him fall in love with her. It was amazing how quickly she was able to get the attention and the trust of our son.
Every day she takes our son for a long walk, to the park, downtown, and sends us tons of pictures and videos. We can see how happy they are and how many experiences our son lives. We know we made the right choice, and we're very happy with that."

"Shelly joined us when our kid was 1 year old and she was the only nanny our kid wanted to be with. Her cheerful, sweet voice, positive attitude makes every kid love her. Her education in early child development makes her an excellent teacher: she always comes up with creative ideas to entertain him, educate him and make him feel special. She takes our kid out every day for 5 hours, and is very mindful of his needs, providing him with playful time and quiet time as needed. She is always very present, trustful, takes care of every detail, sends us pictures and videos every day, and takes care of our kid as if it was hers. In addition, she is very knowledgeable about children's nutrition and development, which makes her not just a nanny, but like a second mother to him. I would run out of adjectives to describe her! This is the best example that quality has its price and the cost is more than worth it. If it wasn't because we had to spend 5 months away from home, we wouldn't let her go!"

The most important part about being a nanny...
These moments happen all day every day! Too many to mention! I love it when my current child prefers to eat my fruit over the one packed by his mom. He knows the difference between my dates and the ones she provides. haha. As a Health Coach, I know where to get the best dates and how to prepare them so they're just perfect! The kids are smart!

Full-Time Child Care Provider Available in Woodside, CA: Alyssa M.
With a degree in Global Studies and minor in Poverty, Inequality, and Social Justice, I am working towards creating frameworks that uplift and embolden kids within globally underserved communities. While I don’t have kids of my own quite yet, working with them has been absolutely fulfilling.
Having worked with kids of various ages and communities, I’ve quickly discovered there’s nothing I love more. Some of my experience includes, working with kids ages 4- 13 as a summer camp teacher in the Tenderloin of San Francisco for two years, privately tutoring/ babysitting lower elementary ages, and mentoring middle school age kids. Additionally, I have first-hand experience having helped raise my three nieces.
Kids are the most interesting humans and I love helping them discover their passions! I recognize that as much as I have to offer to all young people I meet, the relationship is mutually beneficial, as I always find they teach me just as much.
