Hello parents! First of all, my profile title is neither nanny, nor daycare center, as I fall wonderfully in between. You get all the benefits of both with me. No large groups of children fighting for attention & passing viruses around, yet, I provide all meals, snacks, learning & craft supplies at no extra charge. We also take trips to the library for story time & preschool activities, ONLY if parents consent to this. Each child is treated as family! So I am not a "daycare" in the sense that I do not fill my home with 6 or more little ones at once. They do not receive the individual care & attention they deserve in a situation with several children fighting for the caregivers attention. There's also more chance of sickness in those types of facilities. I keep my numbers very low. If I ever have more than two Read more children in my care, I have my daughter who is also First Aid & CPR trained, assist in the care of the children. So you get two caregivers for the price of one. ;-) I have a college education in child care & child development. I have 27 years of experience in childcare as a teacher & chef at Children's World, as a nanny & in my own licensed home daycare. As a teenager, my weekends were always booked with babysitting jobs. I found so much joy in caring for children so much that I decided to take college courses & learn as much as possible about children's physical, mental, & emotional needs. I provide pictures & video via cell phone, as desired by parents, while children are in my care. I use & teach children baby signing, if parents so desire. I'm a believer in baby wearing & attachment care. I am CPR, First Aid & health & safety certified. I love to encourage learning through Montessori style education, crafts & other sensory activities. I adore & encourage the free spirited nature of children. I believe that it is extremely important for ALL children to receive love, attention & affection, but especially those who have to be away from their mom & dad during the day. I am very physically active & enjoy camping, surfing, biking, exercising, laughing & spending time with family & friends. I'm often described as a compassionate individual who is willing to go above and beyond in order to make others comfortable & happy. I look forward to speaking with you about your care needs & doing my best to fill them! Feel free to message me or text/call me directly. (619) 328-8893. Thank you, Nicole C

I highly recommend Nicole!!! I have been utilizing Nicole to care for my two boys ages 2 & 3 for the past year. She has provided amazing care for my boys who both have developmental delays. She caters to their needs and has gone above and beyond to help them grow and develop. I love that I can feel extremely comfortable while I'm at work and know that my boys are being well taken care of. She is always finds new and creative ways to play, arts and crafts, and even creates homemade sensory toys for them to use. Nicole has been extremely accommodating and flexible with her own schedule as my work schedule can be very unpredictable. My boys have grown a bond and special relationship with Nicole and I couldn't be more grateful that I found such an amazing care provider from this sitter city site.
