Hello families! My name is Mia, and I have been working professionally as a nanny for the past six years, supporting families across multiple states and countries. I hold a B. A. in Developmental Psychology from Westmont College and am a Waldorf-trained educator with a passion for holistic child development. I strive to connect children to their communities, foster curiosity for the outdoors, and create nurturing, consistent environments through collaboration with parents and caregivers. I am comfortable managing household duties, running errands, and preparing family meals. I am planning to begin nursing school within the next year, with the long term goal of becoming a Psych NP. Outside of work, I enjoy camping, ceramics, sailing, and staying connected with my church community. It would be an honor to become a trusted part of your family's story, supporting and enriching your children's lives every step of the way.

Mia was a true gift to our family when she cared for our 5-month-old baby. As busy parents, knowing our little one was in such capable and loving hands gave us so much peace of mind. Mia not only met our child’s daily needs but went above and beyond by helping our household run smoothly. What truly stood out was how quickly Mia and our baby bonded after we had an NCS for weeks. There was an immediate connection and it was clear our little girl felt secure and happy with her. Mia’s gentle, attentive approach created such a secure and loving environment, and it was clear she had a special bond with our baby. Her ability to establish a structured routine made a big difference in promoting healthy sleep patterns, which is something every parent can appreciate! I cannot recommend Mia enough; her dedication and warmth truly made our child’s first year a joy, and we always felt completely at ease leaving our little girl in her care.
