I have ten years of experience caring for children. I have a passion for this work because I know how important it is to support children during their most formative years, being a mother myself. I want families to feel like I am there for them and there for them to feel comfortable with me. I look forward to hearing from you so we can discuss my experience and how it would fit in to accommodating your needs. Thank you for your time and consideration.

I am an experienced, reliable, and caring nanny with a passion for supporting children's growth, development, and happiness. I have cared for children from infancy to school age as a Teacher Assistant in Brazil, as a nanny for families in the U. S., and as an Au Pair. With CPR and First Aid certifications, as well as an RPC certificate from my pre-Au Pair training, I am well-prepared in child development, safety, and positive discipline. I also hold a technical degree in Nutrition (Brazil), which allows me to support healthy meals and habits. I provide attentive care, engaging activities, homework support, and help with daily routines, always creating a safe, structured, and joyful environment. I am trustworthy, patient, and proactive. I have my own car and a clean driving record. My top priority is always respecting the parents' choices and preferences. I would be happy to share my full CV upon request.

Since I was in the second grade I have known that I wanted to work with children. I strongly believe that children deserve the best environment and role models to foster their development. I have been babysitting since I was 12 years old and caring for children is a passion of mine; as children should have the best possible influences in order to become successful citizens of the future. With the aid of my education, focusing on child development and behavioral psychology, I believe I can foster the type of environment that is nurturing and encourage a child’s mental and social development. I have many unique skills as I have tutored children diagnosed with Autism, helping them learn daily living, speaking, peer interaction, and play skills. I have taken two semesters of American Sign Language at the University level. I have studied abroad in Europe and consider myself a cultured and open minded individual. I have experience as a Nanny for a family with an infant and a toddler as well as for a family with two children ages 6 and 9. (please see child care info). I have worked for the Palo Alto Unified School district as a teacher aide for special education preK-5 grade, as well as at Edgewood Center for Children and Families (non public school and group home). I also have held nanny positions for an infants, toddlers and school age children. I have experience cooking, cleaning, helping with homework, and projects, as well as playing games and making my time with children enjoyable and fun. I graduated Magna Cum Laude with B.A. in psychology. I am a recent graduate with a MS in Occupational Therapy focusing on working with children with special needs, behavioral management, sensory processing skills, fine and gross motor skills. I am well organized, hard working, have managed the family budget in regards to grocery shopping, running errands, taking children on play dates to the zoo etc. I do well under pressure and with multitasking, I am a team player, flexible and a person of integrity. I look forward to speaking with you about how I can contribute to your family’s future. Sincerely, Stefanie Thompson

Hello, my name is Alex, and I am a fun-loving sitter with 8 years of experience including special needs. I have a very flexible schedule during evenings and weekends and can work last minute if needed. I have two younger brothers who are 9 and 11 who I’ve babysat for years, along with various other preschool, elementary, and middle school aged children and siblings. I recently graduated college with a psychology degree where I was fortunate to learn a lot of about child development as well! I love art, music, and sports, so I can help keep your youngster entertained! I am happy to take on other tasks such as prepping meals, cleaning, transportation, and animal care. I can also help with bedtime routines and stay late or overnight if needed. I am currently a nanny/house helper from 1:30-5:30 M-F for a San Carlos family with a 3, 6, and 8 year old, so I am available outside that time block. I look forward to hearing from you!

I ran 43 daycares for 16 years on the East Coast and was a nanny both in Maryland and in California after the selling of the daycares. I have also taught swimming, art, and dance to young children. I developed the curriculum for the daycares and trained the teaching staff. I have worked with thousands of children over a long career and still receive Christmas cards for children that are now in high school and college. I have over 2000 hours of Early childhood education and am a member of multiple teaching websites and stay up to date on current changes and teaching methods. I have been certified in CPR and first aid for years and have used it successfully in an emergency situation. I completed a class in CPR and First aid in May 2020 at the College of San Mateo and have been certified for many years. I am up to date on current trends such as Baby-led weening and other new techniques. I maintain a log so that the parents know what is happening with their young children. The log includes food and milk intake, diaper activity, nap length, and any observations that need to be passed on. I also take children to parks and pools or other activities. I am vaccinated and Covid careful. I also have multiple references from my past nanny positions. I have a pre-school and art program that I have developed and use currently. I enjoy working with children and building their confidence using music and art. I like to include active learning exercises that keep the children engaged. Singing is a constant part of my day-to-day interaction with the children I care for. I have 5 large Rubbermaid containers filled with games, art supplies, pre-school lessons and a storyboard with many different stories. All geared to develop confidence and build their learning capabilities. My rate is based not only on the market rate but hours and needs. When you hire me you are getting a professional that also becomes part of the family. I am currently looking for a position that is no less than 20 hours and no more than 40 hours a week. If you would like to hire me but don't have a total of 32 hours I am open to a salary amount that pays at the 32-hour rate when under the needed hours. I request five days of paid sick leave, two weeks of paid vacation the first year. Guaranteed salary based on the minimum hours. If this is something that you agree with I look forward to hearing from you.
