About Monica

Experience: 10 yrs

COVID-19 vaccinated

Originally from France, I have been here since the age of 12 and am still fluent in French. I married my high school sweetheart, we live in the South Bay, have 4 amazing children, and in the last 4 years, have added 5 new grand babies! I have been in childcare and education for all of my adult life, and have established lasting relationships with many great families. I have extensive newborn, multiple, preemie and overnight experience, and babies are my specialty! Over the last several years, I have completely shifted my focus to overnight newborn and postpartum support. I am flexible, accommodating, have a loving, nurturing heart, and have the patience needed to work with newborns. I personally breastfed all of my children through multiple challenges and am happy to offer support. I am looking for a family that feels they could benefit from having some extra support, especially overnight, whether temporarily or long term. Thank you for your time and consideration! Monica

Monica is just the best and we wish we could have her with our family always! Monica took amazing care of our son from 4-6 months as our night nurse. I was in desperate need of some uninterrupted sleep and she would arrive at 11pm and stay until 6-7am Sun-Thurs. She was communicative, dependable, caring, warm, and just everything you can hope for in someone caring for your child (other than you and your partner). Our son loved playing with her, singing with her, and she is greatly missed.
