Experience: 9 yrs
Hi I'm Claudia! I'm 29 years old and have BA in Chemistry & Biology minor. I have a passion for learning, and thrive in an organized, hard-working environment. I have 8+ years of childcare experience from newborn to 14 yrs, and am a certified Lifeguard and Water Safety Instructor. Experience as a full-time nanny, date night sitter, swim instructor, and childcare worker have given me the opportunity to learn and engage with children of all ages. I speak Spanish and follow a gentle parenting and Montessori/RIE approach by doing activities that inspire children's independence and creativity. My number one priority is ensuring you and your family are comfortable, happy, and confident in my ability to take care of your children. I love pets, the outdoors, art, and have a passion for photography and travel. In my free time I'm either cooking, doing yoga, swimming, or playing board games! I look forward to meeting your family!
Claudia is an absolute delight to have in our home, caring for our daughter. Claudia has a calm, nurturing, and centered demeanor. Our daughter can be shy with new people, but she took to Claudia quickly. Now, our daughter squeals with joy when Claudia arrives and is eager to show her new toys and latest favorite books. Claudia is experienced and capable: our daughter is starting to show some toddler behavior, and Claudia handles and redirects any of our daughter's more unreasonable requests with gentle kindness and consistent boundaries. I've heard early childhood educators talk about the importance of an adult's centered calm in the face of a kid's big feelings -- Claudia exemplifies this! On top of all those amazing qualities as a caregiver, Claudia also leaves our home looking stunning (an unexpected bonus!). We always come home from date nights to a spotless, tidy house and a happily sleeping toddler. We're so grateful to have her in our lives! When we can't be with our daughter, we're glad she's with Claudia, well cared for and happy.
