Hi! I’m Candace, I’m 26 years old and an experienced nanny with a strong background in infant and newborn care. Growing up as the second oldest of six kids, being around children has always come naturally to me, and it’s what first led me into nannying.I bring over 8 years of childcare experience working with children of all ages, from infants to school-aged kids, including families with multiple children. I currently work as a full-time nanny for a newborn and have spent the past year and a half focused on infant care. I’m very comfortable stepping into a baby’s routine, learning their cues, and providing calm care during those early months. I take on all aspects of infant care and enjoy creating an environment where babies feel secure and supported. I’ve also worked with families with toddlers and school-aged children. I enjoy creating a safe, interactive environment and am comfortable with day-to-day tasks like school drop-offs, activities, and running errands. Alongside my childcare work, I graduated with a degree in cellular and molecular biology and am pursuing a career in medicine with a focus on pediatrics, which shapes the way I approach care. I am CPR certified and always prioritize creating a safe and engaging environment. I will be available for full-time or part-time positions starting April 3, and I look forward to connecting with you.

Candace is very calm and thoughtful. She’s been with our family for almost a year now and my son is very comfortable with her. She’s responsive and amendable to feedback or requests, keeps her cool even when he’s challenging, and is a good communicator.

I've been in childcare since I was twelve years old, eighteen entire years! I used to babysit for my mom and dad, as the oldest sibling in my family of seven children. Friends from our community knew I was good with the little kids and asked for me to come and watch theirs, and it all snowballed from there. I've worked in church daycares, at summer camps, for six families as a private child caretaker, in schools as a teacher's assistant and more. I am comfortable working with autism spectrum kids, too, since my a lot of my family are on the spectrum. That's actually how I met my first nanny kiddo; he was on the spectrum and we became friends at the shop I worked at when his mom and he would come in to eat. His mom came in one day and said he loved me and their nanny had to go, so could she pay me a dollar more than what I was getting paid now and full time? It was all very kismet. I worked for them full time for about a year after until I moved. I am super creative but also super responsible. I like the balance of art and productivity. I love making lists and checking them off: it gives me a sense of purpose and calm and tangible proof that I'm making moves in the right direction. I am alllll about finding creative ways to be kind and handle any kind of upset with empathy and compassion and compromise. Not even lots of crying stresses me out; I just view it as another avenue of processing in a big world that kids have, among many others, of getting their feelings out when they feel they can't properly express it with their language. I like to find things to do to change the mood when things like that come up, like a game or a trip, instead of letting them get too stuck in the upset. Or sometimes we sing the Breathing Song from Esme and Roy! My biggest strength as a nanny is my commuication skills with parents. I want to work alongside you as another team member and an advocate for your family! I'm there to make your guys' lives all a little easier. If there's anything to do that would make that happen, I more than want to hear about it and it means so much to me when it's expressed. I show my love and care for people through acts of service, so that's always been a great source of pride for me. I am CPR/First Aid certified, have my own car and am currently working for two families. I started working with their children since they were 6 months and 8 months and they're now both almost 2 and 3.

Hello! I'm Cecilia, a dependable 33-year-old woman pursuing a degree in psychology who adores children and animals. While I’ve cared for children of all ages most of my life, since 2022 the majority of my experience has been with kids ages 1–6. I truly love each stage of development for different reasons, and don't shy away from any age group. My goal is to foster a supportive, nurturing, creative environment for kids to safely explore the world and discover themselves. My experience includes bottle feeding, diaper changing, potty training, emotional support/regulation for children, pretend play, outside play, meal prepping, dressing, homework help, maintaining a tidy play environment, transportation, housekeeping, and organizing educational games/crafts. Additionally, I have experience caring for neurodivergent children, understanding their unique needs, and assisting with emotional regulation, sensory sensitivities, and communication strategies. Beyond my professional background, I enjoy live music, hiking, crocheting, and meditation. I'm CPR/FA certified, fully vaccinated, and I have a clean background and driving record. If you believe I'd be a good fit for your family, don't hesitate to reach out!

Welcome parents and guardians! Located in Sacramento* (Open to occasional and one time babysitting gigs) I am excited to share a little bit about myself and my qualifications to support your family. I begin my experience with youth at Boys and Girls Club which guided me into being more open and appreciative of how unique each child is. I have worked at multiple school districts from coordinating activities for after school programs to currently, working at a non-profit as a therapist for middle and high schoolers. I have nine years of youth experience, as well as 6 years of babysitting experience from ages 2 months to 18 years old. I am CPR and First aid certified. I enjoy being silly with kids and being open to what the child would like to do. I am patient especially after working with children from different backgrounds including beautiful children on the spectrum. I am an associate therapist and a graduate of Santa Clara University that embraces every child’s individuality so if I sound like a great fit for your family, Please feel free to message me with what you’re looking for (days, times, how many children, and responsibilities) :-) Looking forward to working with your family!

Dafne has been caring for our infant daughter for about two months now, and she's consistently punctual, reliable, and communicative. She is sweet and patient with our daughter and always lets us know exactly what time she ate and slept, which makes the transition back to our care so much easier. I would absolutely recommend Dafne!

Hi my name is Dulce but I go by Abi, I have always been drawn to working with children, once I graduated high school I applied for a summer school position at a preschool not knowing it was caring after special needs children, although it was a surprise and a learning experience I fell in love with it which then led me to working as a Paraprofessional at a school District for the next 4 yrs. I moved over to Sacramento 9 yrs ago and worked as an ABA for children on the spectrum which was such a rewarding job as well. 8 years ago I was so fortunate to have found my family I currently nanny for, I have been with them for the past 8 yrs and care after their 3 boys( under 9). Throughout the years I have learned the importance of patience, communication, punctuality among others. I’ve been so fortunate to have such a rewarding job and truly would not change it for anything. I have Monday’s available, evenings as well as the occasional weekends, Im always looking twords making new besties :)

Abi was great with our kids for back up care when our usual child care couldn’t make it in time. She is experienced with multiple young kiddos and is very proactive about activities even taking our kids to the local park despite only helping us out for the morning.
