Specialties:

My speciality is connecting families with the very best caregivers on the Central Coast!

With decades of experience working with children, I know what qualities and experience to look for in a nanny or sitter, and I take pride in finding the right fit for each family.

What I love most is meeting families from all over the world, getting to know their stories, and helping them feel supported with care they can truly rely on!

Favorite Kids Activity: 

I love glow sticks, and have always grabbed a few packs at the dollar store for any kids that are in my care. I always have some in my trunk and my nieces and nephews always ask me for them!

Regarding other activities that I enjoy, I have done everything from bathtub glow stick parties to glow stick parades around the block (see - I love glow sticks haha!). I love math games around the house: “search for 10 things that start with the letter L.” For toddlers, grab some (small sized) kitchen tongs and dried pasta - have them grab the pasta and put it in the bowl. It’s great for their fine motor skills!

Favorite Restaurant:
