Hi! I’m Nicole! I’m a happy, fun-loving detail-oriented mom of 3 teenagers. I own a children’s resale boutique in town and one of the things I like best about it is interacting with the kids and their families! I work in my shop only part time and now that my kids are older I’ve found that I have time and love to give to families that need a little help or a break or a date night! I love animals and so pets in the home are a bonus for me. I’m also very happy to help with meal prep or tidying up if I’m at your home. I love the parks and the beach and I’m willing to take kids for walks or on outings. I’m happy to help with homework too. I love board games and coloring or drawing and playing dolls or Legos or imagination games or Read more doing anything that the kids like to do. I’m fit so I can keep up With them on bikes or scooters or even just racing around outside. I truly enjoy being silly with kids of all ages and enjoy having fun and engaging with them at their level. Newborns to teens… I love all the stages! I was a full time nanny before and during my tenure at UCSB and started babysitting as soon as I could as a young girl. I think it’s because I have a lot of love to give and my family of origin is very small so I have enjoyed being part of the families I work with. After UCSB I worked in both educational and residential facilities with severely emotionally disturbed teenagers and learned so much about behavior management and caring for children who need extra support. That was truly an educational experience for me and has positively impacted my relationships with children and as a parent myself. What else? I’m punctual, thoughtful, I have a strong work ethic, and I do what I commit to doing! I have a positive outlook on life and that shows in all I do! Let me know if you think I could be of help to you and your family! ❤️☺️
