Household manager, family assistant, and nanny experienced working in fine homes and committed to providing quality personalized service with heart. With over 20 years experience, I have preformed a wide array of duties, including: Grocery shopping /meal preparation, errand running/gift buying, complete pet care, tracking expenses, managing laundry and dry cleaning, mailing and receiving packages, sourcing and managing vendors, managing home projects and overseeing staff, driving family members, booking travel arrangements, organizing large household events and parties, and childcare as needed. Extensive knowledge of Bay Area. Experience also with tutoring, art/design, and social/ environmental justice advocacy. With children, I am soft-spoken yet firm, engaging, strive to nurture their creativity, their ability to communicate in healthy ways, and to serve as a support rather then just a care-giver. Unpretentious, discreet, proactive, conscientious and caring, with a can-do attitude.
