With over 30 years of hands-on experience nurturing children of all ages, I bring a lifelong passion and natural gift for childcare. Affectionately known as “The Baby Whisperer,” I have an intuitive ability to connect with infants and young children—creating joyful, engaging, and enriching environments wherever I go. Children are naturally drawn to me, and I truly speak their language—whether I’m soothing a newborn, connecting with a toddler, or helping a preschooler learn through play. I am currently work with children with special needs ranging in age from 3 to 26, as well as supporting 4th and 5th graders in school settings. These roles have strengthened my ability to provide individualized, compassionate care while fostering confidence and independence in each child. I’ve had the privilege of nannying for two wonderful families and raising my own children while being a stay-at-home mom for over 36 years. Caring for children doesn’t feel like work—it’s what brings me joy and purpose. I love to sing with children, do arts and crafts, and play both indoor and outdoor games. I weave learning into everyday activities—teaching letters, shapes, colors, and phonics in playful, creative ways. Time outside is one of my favorite things, whether we’re exploring nature, playing in the dirt (when allowed!), or enjoying movement and fresh air. I also have experience teaching swimming and helping children feel confident and safe in the water. I’ve completed 12 units in Early Childhood Development and am currently pursuing a degree in Child Development, giving me a strong foundation in how children grow, learn, and thrive. I’m also pursuing studies in Physical Education to support motor development and encourage active, healthy lifestyles. Highlights: 30+ years caring for children of all ages, including infants, toddlers, school-age kids, and teens Experience with children with special needs (ages 3–26) and elementary school students College coursework in Child Development CPR/First Aid certified Passionate about music, creative arts, outdoor play, and learning through fun Open to roles as a nanny, caregiver, or “bonus grandma” My Philosophy: Children thrive when they feel safe, loved, and encouraged. My goal is to create joyful, structured spaces where they feel free to explore, grow, and become the amazing individuals they’re meant to be.

Kelly has been a wonderful nanny during the short time she has been with us—and we’re truly grateful for the positive impact she made. She consistently brought positive energy into our home and showed good knowledge in planning activities and supporting the kids’ development. We especially appreciated how she kept us informed about how the children were feeling and always shared thoughtful insights. She has been punctual, dependable, and genuinely caring. Even in a short period, our baby girl really enjoyed their time with her. We wish her the very best and highly recommend her!

I am a mom with two beautiful children. I have a 28 year old daughter and a 21 year old son. I have been taking care of children since I was in high school. Helping out neighbors with cleaning, cooking, going on walks with their children what ever needed to get done I did it. I love pets as well. Having good communication with the parents is very important. Having a positive attitude is very important. Hope to hear from you soon. Have a blessed day.

I have been in the United States for the past 18 years of my life, and I have been working with kids for 16 years. First, I worked as a live-in child care provider. Later on, I moved to a part-time position, and eventually got a full-time job. Through these years, I have taken care of children of different ranges of ages since newborn to preteens. I've been able to take care of multiple kids at once. Also, I had practiced safety, love, and patience as my core values. I'm a very active and outgoing person. I love to take the kids on outside activities. I take pride of my work because I understand that I'm taking care of your most valuable possession - your kids. My job is to educate the citizens of the future and my legacy will be passed to them.

My family hired Lorena (Daira) as a back-up nanny for my sick 6 month old son in 12/2022. She was fantastic! In setting up the job, she was very communicative and professional. I contacted her the day we needed care due to a late cancellation, and she was able to start within a couple of hours. She very quickly picked up on my son's routine and didn't need any training on the basics. She came fully prepared and skilled in bottle-feeding, diapering, tummy time, etc. She jumped right in with a very minimal orientation to our home and baby stuff, and had my son out on a walk within a hour or so of showing up! My son was still eating and sleeping on demand to a certain extent (rather than a scheduled), and she was able to read infant sleepy/hungry cues. I couldn't have been happier working with Lorena and will certainly hire her again in the future if she's available!

I was born and raised in Tahoe, and find myself always returning back towards NorCal. I enjoy the many outdoor activities living here provides including, bike riding and hiking , trail walking I consider myself very outdoorsy, and think it's important to take advantage of this beautiful area. I am also a creative person, so art (more specifically painting) have been a great outlet and passion. As a childcare provider, I enjoy sharing my love of the outdoors and creativity/art with kids. I have over eight years of experience including babysitting, pre-school teaching. I think it's important to provide children with a fun, fulfilling and enriched environment. I am an enthusiastic and responsible person and look forward to meeting you and your kids I would also like to consider I am a mother of my own and I would like to be able to take her with me threw my days as a childcare provider.

Espe looked after our 9-month old baby while we were skiing in Big Bear. She was a great help and we'll definitely hire her again. Thanks!

As a big sister, I’ve always loved caring for children and being someone they can feel comfortable and safe around. I enjoy building connections with kids, helping them learn, and making sure they feel supported while still having fun. Being a sitter feels natural to me because I’m used to being patient, responsible, and attentive to a child’s needs. My experience comes from helping care for my younger siblings, where I’ve been involved in daily routines such as playtime, meals, homework help, and bedtime. Through this, I’ve learned how to handle different moods, keep kids engaged, and create a positive, structured environment. All the health aid training, is from my jobs in the military. I am former cop, now paralegal.
