My name is Nadya and I am looking for a full time Babysitting / Nanny job. I have been a nanny for over 10 years working with newborns, infants, young toddlers, preschool and elementary school kids. I am originally from Ukraine and I would describe myself as a reliable, caring, punctual and energetic person, especially when children are involved. I absolutely love kids. I drive and have a clean driving record. I would be happy to drive your child to the park or somewhere close by. 
I have 3 of my own children, all 3 already adults and live far away from me. 
I can do light cooking and house chores related to the child's needs. 
I have a CPR training certificate.
My last 4 long term positions:
1) 2 years with one family with one child
2) 14 month with twins.
3) 1. 5 year with family with two kids. 
4) 18 months baby share.

Nadya was my son’s Nanny for a year and a half starting from when he was 7 months old as a part of a nanny share with another family. From the day we met Nadya, we felt instantly safe and reassured leaving our son with her. She connected immediately with the kids and they got into a routine which they looked forward to and were so excited to see her when she arrived each morning! She did everything we asked of her with the kids, and acted as a true support system to us as parents. My son has serious food allergies and skin sensitivities and she was always so conscientious about keeping him safe and communicating with us. Nadya was always on time, and communicated well in advance if she needed time off or had a schedule conflict, never calling out last minute in the 1.5 years she was with our families. The kids still ask about her, we were so lucky to have her as long as we did. I would strongly recommend her to any family and would be happy to provide a reference for anyone that would like to get in touch.  

Finding someone you trust with your child is no easy feat, but from the moment Nadya started working with us, we knew we were in the best hands. For nearly a year and a half—from the time our daughter and her nanny-share buddy were 7 months old until they turned 2—Nadiya was an indispensable, beloved part of our lives. Nadya managed the nanny share with absolute grace and expertise. She successfully got both children on the exact same schedule, seamlessly transitioned them down to one nap, and even sleep-trained our daughter. She also has a magic touch when it comes to toddlers eating well and drinking their milk. Nadya took them on daily walks and to our local story times, ensuring they were always active and learning. She was always prompt and reliable. We also deeply valued her open communication. She provided wonderful, experienced advice when we needed it, while always remaining highly adaptable to our specific requests. Above all else, we always felt confident that the kids were safe under her watch. We trusted her implicitly. You can tell that Nadya doesn't just view this as a job—she genuinely cares about the kids in her heart. Every day when it was time for her to go, the kids would run to give her a massive hug. We are incredibly sad that the kids have outgrown the nanny share and are transitioning to preschool. They are going to miss her terribly. We adore Nadya, and she will always be a special part of our family. She was a true blessing and any family would be incredibly lucky to have her.

We've had the joy of working with Nadya over 5 years and with both our children. She first joined us in 2019 as our daughter's nanny, providing exceptional care for nearly two years. When our son arrived in 2023, we were thrilled to welcome her back as our night nanny, and she has since transitioned to being our full-time nanny. 

Her punctuality is impeccable, but what truly sets her apart is her attentive and nurturing nature.

Nadaya is amazing! We have had her for a month now for my newborn and she has given us new parents so much valuable advice and help. I can trust her to be sweet and careful with my baby and also teach us things to help us become better parents . I’m very grateful for her help and I highly recommend her for ages 3 weeks and above ! 

Nadya watched my 18 month daughter for two weeks while her usual daycare was closed. I was apprehensive of my little one being comfortable with new nanny, but Nadya's confidence and experience made the baby comfortable and the parents feel assured right from day 1. Nadya is caring, punctual, trustworthy and independent. I would highly recommend her to other similar parents looking for nannies for their precious little ones.

Nadya worked with us for 14 months taking care of our twins - from 4 months of age to 18 months. Her responsibilities included feeding, diaper changes, bathing, laundry and meal prep for the kids. She was very punctual, polite and organized. She was thorough in her work and always open to feedback. She played with them, took them on walks as they got older, put them to sleep/sang to them and even made special baby food recipes (like zucchini pancakes). She was also available to help out if we needed her outside normal work hours. She was really fond of the kids and cared for them, and we felt that the kids were safe with her. When our parents visited us, she also interacted with them in a very friendly manner and they bonded over many stories. Nadya has truly become a part of our extended family, and we wish her all the best with her new family.

Nadya has been a blessing for our family. She raised our daughter with care and affection while teaching her good habits and feeding her healthy food. Nadya also took care of our family for last 2 years and became like a family member. 

She was always on time and went above and beyond to help our family. She is a great nanny understanding the kids, teaching them right things and gives her 200% on the job. When I think of Nadya I think of trust, safety and affection. 

She even helped with our daughter's school transition and now is an extended part of our family in Bay Area.

We hired Nadya to take care of two babies (9 months and 10 months) for about a two weeks period. She is a very responsible person and always came to the house early.  She was able to take care of both babies at the same time even tough both had different schedules and needed some help to fall asleep. Nadya was able to train them fall sleep by themselves. I also appreciated that Nadya reported how the baby is doing in detail when I came home. I would definitely ask Nadya to take care of my baby again.

Nadya took care of my 4 month old son as I prepared to go back to work. She always arrived on-time and with a smile. She played with my son and took him on walks to the park and was also eager to take him to the library for story time.  She also was flexible with start times/end times which is great for a working family.  Highly recommend!

Nadya took care of our 5 month old daughter. She was excellent, our daughter warmed up to her immediately and was always happy to see Nadya when she arrived in the morning. Nadya played and sang with our daughter, took her for many walks a day, and brought her to story time at the library. She was dependable and flexible, helping by coming early or staying late when we needed it.

We hired Nadya to help us with our baby girl when we needed backup care. She was so wonderful with our baby. Incredibly patient, dependable, and caring. We would hire again in an instant. 

Nadya was our nanny for my granddaughter for a few year. She has been looking after her since she was 2 months old. She was always on time an I can describe her as caring, reliable and patient when she is working with children. Now my granddaughter is 3 years old and we are still always happy to invite Nadya when we need help. I would highly recommend Nadya.

Nadya has been taking care of our two boys for years, since they were small children.  We couldn't have asked for a better caretaker for our kids--she is reliable, patient, and caring.  She has always been flexible and able to accommodate our schedules.  The kids adore Nadya.  They love playing with her, going to the park, and she even gets them to eat healthy foods that I can't!  I absolutely would recommend Nadya to other parents.

Nadya has been helping to take care of our two boys since they were very young.  She is incredibly responsive, patient, and caring.  I appreciate how dependable and flexible Nadya is--always on time and willing to accommodate our schedule.  She is comfortable with children of all ages and easily builds rapport.  Both of my kids absolutely adore her--they love to play with her, going to the park, and she even gets them to eat healthy foods that they don't eat for me!  Nadya is great and we would definitely recommend her to other parents!
