Find experienced nannies in Oceano, CA

I love children, I used to be a elementary school teacher I would teach the subject of art. I also hosted many outdoor nature events for kids to experience hiking. I care deeply for children and can connect to them where they feel seen, heard, and even can play endlessly. I enjoy caring. Cooking even, being in a family setting. I am very artistic, well-educated, and adventurous. I know how to handle change, I'm adaptive and got a very big heart. I can sense slight things so I can feel when a child is one way or the other and will steer them towards the right direction.

I absolutely love working with children and have experience with a wide range of ages. I grew up helping care for my six younger siblings, have babysat and nannied for multiple families, and most recently worked as a Recreation Leader and Preschool Teacher. In that role, I taught preschoolers ages 3–5, led classrooms of up to 25 elementary-aged children, and worked in after-school and STEAM programs with kids ages 6–16. I also have experience working with children with disabilities and children on the autism spectrum. Families would describe me as patient, dependable, and easygoing. I enjoy getting kids outside, doing crafts, helping with homework, and creating fun activities that keep them engaged and learning. I’m available Tuesday through Saturday with flexible hours and am happy to travel anywhere in the Five Cities area.

My approach to childcare is rooted in patience, creativity, and a friendly demeanor. I believe in open communication with parents, ensuring that they receive regular updates about their child's day and any issues that arise. I am very comfortable enforcing household rules and believe in a environment that promotes good behavior. When it comes to activities, I enjoy engaging children in a variety of games, both educational and recreational.

I am 25 and have grown up with child care experience. I am the oldest of seven children, the youngest of whom is a four-year old boy. Growing up, I took care of my siblings while my mom worked jobs to support us. I highly respect a busy working mother. My siblings were of all ages and I learned skills of adaptability, patience, good judgement, and self-motivation. I helped take care of the house and entertained my siblings when we weren’t in school. I was highly motivated in high school and I also played tennis! I graduated from CSU-Monterey Bay in California with a B.A. in Environmental Studies with a concentration in Education. I am very passionate about getting myself and young people outside and interested in science and the natural sciences particularly. I learned how to teach students using experience-based learning and open-ended questions. While in undergraduate school and after graduation I taught in a before (6-10am) and after school program (2-7pm) for children of people who work in agriculture for four years. I worked alone with ~10 kids with a range of ages 5-12 in a class. I had to use strong problem skills, creative quick thinking, and self-management to support their success academically, emotionally, and socially. My style is balancing age appropriate conversation and treating them as adults/their own individual person. I believe in inspiring self-responsibility and motivation through incentives and having a positive relationship with the child while also communicating strengths or needs for support with the parent(s). I created daily activities myself or asked the kids to choose a range of activities (puzzles, coloring, computer school games, homework help, crafts, card games), encouraged outside activities (basketball, versions of tag, laying in the grass listening to music) and participated in general conversation with kids of all ages. Pre-COVID19 I brought them to outdoor field trips and nature walks. During the pandemic my main goal was to keep them emotionally regulated and as motivated in school as possible. Other skills that are worth noting for supporting child success is I am bilingual in Spanish and English. I was CPR certified but will need to renew it as it expired this year. I also have a clean driving record but I have moved from California and will need to get a New York Driving License. Thank you, Jasmin Gonzalez

Hi! My name is Kayla, and I’m a caring, dependable, and experienced nanny with 7 years of professional experience caring for both boys and girls, from newborns to age 12. I’ve worked with many families on the Central Coast, often providing care for multiple children at once, including infants and school-aged children.

Hi! I have worked with children for over 6 years now. I started as a babysitter and transitioned to a full time private nanny, and for the last two and a half years I have also been combining that with doing full spectrum doula work. I am currently completing my certification as a newborn care specialist. I especially enjoy working with infants. I am passionate about supporting not just your baby but your family as it grows and changes. I have extensive experience with newborns, infants, and toddlers. As well as with children with special needs and babies born extremely premature. As a doula I have knowledge around breast feeding, bottle feeding, and pumping and can support in all areas. I also have experience with introducing solids and have knowledge on the best ways to help your baby hit their milestones.

I love kids because I think they bring out the good side in anyone. They make you become creative and just all around happy. Thank you for reading my bio and I hope you get back to me! :)
