Many of our nannies like Katie have fabulous educational backgrounds from working at a Santa Barbara County After School Program or School, and are perfect for a learning-focused family who want to continue their children’s education even outside of school!

“Santa Barbara County After School Program is where I have gained a wide range of experience working with children. As an individual, I am compassionate, honest, and caring, and I am dedicated to making a positive impact on kids' lives. My passion and lifetime goal are to teach and be a mentor for children. That is why I believe I would be a perfect candidate for this position. I have been involved in various childcare experiences for over 6 years, and I can genuinely say that I love what I do. I firmly believe that children are the key to a brighter future, and they deserve to be treated with the utmost respect, care, and love. In my role as a nanny, I hope to plan engaging and creative activities that the child will enjoy. I am also open to assisting with light cleaning responsibilities for the family. Describing myself in five adjectives, I would say that I am caring, conscientious, responsible, creative, and respectful. As a certified art teacher, I would love to incorporate art activities, such as painting and other art-related projects, into the daily plans with the family I care for. I also envision attending community events and programs, as well as providing both playtime and rest time for the child. The perfect family that I hope to work with would be easy-going yet actively involved and supportive in their child's life. It is essential to me that they also support my role as a caretaker in their child's life."

It is my utmost pleasure to wholeheartedly recommend Katie for any opportunity that comes her way.

“Over the years, Ashley has been the primary caregiver for my three children, starting from the time they were infants. Among my children are my daughter and identical twin boys. Despite the challenge of caring for three young children, with my daughter being just two and a half years older than my sons, Ashley always handled the task admirably. My children developed a strong affection for her as she provided exceptional care and support. Ashley's work ethic is characterized by responsibility, honesty, and diligence, making her an invaluable addition to any family in search of someone with experience in a Santa Barbara County After School Program.”

“Katie has been looking after our two-year-old son for the past three years in the Santa Barbara County After School Program. Throughout this time, she has consistently exhibited punctuality and a positive interaction with our children. We are always impressed with her ability to follow our instructions regarding meals and bedtime routines. Additionally, Katie is extremely conscientious when it comes to our son's multiple food allergies, ensuring his safety by promptly administering antihistamines when necessary. She goes the extra mile by voluntarily cleaning up after dinner. One admirable quality of Katie is her ability to engage in meaningful conversations with both my husband and me. Despite her young age, she displays a level of maturity beyond her years. What truly stands out about Katie is her calmness under pressure and effective communication skills. She seamlessly adapted to caring for our now five-year-old son and eighteen-month-old daughter. Her prior experience in the Santa Barbara County After School Program, combined with her extensive childcare background, makes her the ideal candidate for a nanny position. I wholeheartedly support Katie's desire to pursue a career as a nanny, and I would recommend her to your Santa Barbara Nanny Agency without any hesitation.”
