Hello there! I am an experienced and compassionate nanny with over five years of professional childcare expertise, including working as a behavioral counselor (2023-2025) and at a children’s English daycare in Tokyo (2012-2018). I bring a strong background in managing diverse behavioral needs, supporting emotional and social development, and creating a nurturing environment for children. My experience includes caring for toddlers through school-aged children, guiding them through developmental milestones, organizing educational activities, and fostering language acquisition through immersive English learning. • CPR certified, I provide safe, engaging, and tailored care, ensuring that each child’s unique needs are met with empathy and professionalism. A little bit about me: My husband is active-duty Navy, and we recently relocated to El Cajon, California, after living in Virginia for four years. I work as a part-time event manager and am looking for part-time work as a nanny, as I love kids and have extensive Read more experience working with families and behavioral psychology. I am a certified yoga teacher and wellness enthusiast. I love anything artsy and often used art therapy while working as a behavioral counselor. I also enjoy reading, exploring nature, and spending time with my husband and fur baby! I am currently available on weekdays and daytime weekends.

Tabitha was a great sitter for our two boys. She was reliable. She asked questions and make sure that everything was set up for them. She was a safe driver. Her availability was super helpful because the boys had afterschool activities and she was able to take them safely from point A to point B. She also make sure that they ate and did everything I left on the list (i.e., homework, put away their backpacks, etc.) We miss having her as she was such a great help.

Tabitha was great to work with. She took the time to build rapport with my 10-year-old son prior to any sitting arrangements. My son is Autistic and sometimes finds it difficult with meeting new people, but he eventually came around during our initial meet and greet. It turned out to be good fit for all of us and he grew fond of Tabitha over the short time. I highly recommend her for any childcare needs.
