About Roberta
Experience: 10 yrs
I am a trained, certified Waldorf Early Childhood Educator. Over the past 20 years, I have worked as a teacher (preschool through high school) and Nanny/Family Assistant as well as having raised my own college-aged child. I hold 19 ECE units and maintain ongoing professional development. I have worked with children of all ages including children with learning differences. For families concerned about children's media consumption, I specialize in raising children with mindfulness around screen-time usage and understand the challenges inherent in this lifestyle choice though I am amenable and adaptable to your family's preferences. Using developmentally age-appropriate activities, I'm experienced in creating quality, holistic environments to occupy children's time and facilitate fun and growth. I am qualified to help children with homework and am experienced with infants, including preemies. I am Trust Line verified by the state of California and have excellent professional references.

Our experience with Roberta was truly wonderful. While her time with us was occasional, she left such a positive impression on our family and especially our 4-year-old daughter. Roberta has a wonderful calming presence that our daughter immediately connected to and we felt at ease right away, knowing our daughter was in such good hands. Their shared activities, like nature walks and creative painting, brought our daughter fun and joy. We are sad that she left the Bay Area as we would have loved to continue working with her! We absolutely recommend Roberta to families seeking a nurturing and experienced caregiver. Her blend of Waldorf-inspired wisdom and rapport with children creates an atmosphere of joy and magic.
