Hello, my name is Mika! I am 25 yrs old and have been babysitting/nannying all ages for the last ~10 yrs. Starting in my teen years I babysat regularly and since ventured into all different types of childcare related work; various preschools, summer camps with 25+ kids on my hands, teaching swim, and full time nannying. I have experience with children that have mental/physical disabilities and have worked with every phase from newborn to preteen - I'm prepared to take on anything. I'm passionate about what I do, honest, punctual, caring, trustworthy, worldly (dual citizen US & SWE), creative (I went to a creative arts school for 9 years) and eager to meet you and your child/ren soon!

We struck gold with Mika. Our first interaction was a last minute babysitting gig that turned into over two years of working together. Us moving and no longer being able to work with Mika will greatly impact our family. Communication is incredibly important to any parent who doesn’t get to see what is going on throughout the day. In my case, I was this parent while my husband worked from home. Although my husband was in the next room, both of us were continually looped into the day with updates, photos and shared location which were all her idea. Mika’s energy & ability to stay engaged seems boundless. Whether it’s the various activities she dreams up, facilitating socialization with other children, learning new words, or working with puzzles, she has her entire focus and attention on the moment. Her being a native to San Francisco has helped with exploring spaces that we had never thought to visit. It would be easy to tailor a child’s day to just neighborhood playground visits but our sons day is filled with so much more. Any family would be incredibly lucky to work with Mika.
