Experience: 3 yrs
I worked as a behavioral therapist for children with autism for three years and was also a nanny prior to college. During my jobs, I worked with children ages 1-17 years old, and my responsibilities included teaching communication skills, assisting with homework, aiding with self care, and more. In college, I worked as a research assistant in a lab dedicated to social emotional learning and wellbeing in schools. I also volunteered as a student teacher at underprivileged schools, and was then hired to mentor other student teachers. I graduated UCSD with a bachelor's in Developmental Psychology and a minor in Educational Studies.
We feel so lucky to have had Isabella as our nanny! From day one, she brought warmth, patience, and genuine love to caring for our baby. She was attentive, reliable, and incredibly gentle and nurturing with our infant — always going above and beyond, whether it was keeping to feeding and nap schedules, soothing him/her through fussy moments, or just being a calming, comforting presence. Our baby absolutely adored her, and as parents, we had complete peace of mind knowing he/she was in such caring, capable hands. Isabella wasn’t just a nanny to us — she became part of our family. We’ll miss her dearly and can’t recommend her highly enough to any family looking for someone truly special!
