Hello, i'm Fernanda! My journey in the world of children's care began over a decade ago in my home country of Brazil. Being born in Brazil, my deep affinity for nurturing and supporting children started at a young age. With a nurturing spirit and a genuine love for children, I started my career as a Babysitter/Nanny, honing my skills in providing a safe and loving environment for young ones. However, it was during my studies and subsequent career in nursing that my path took an extraordinary turn. My determination led me to attain an associate degree in nursing (Brazil), which opened the doors to my fulfilling role as a NICU nurse and birth assistant. It was here, in the neonatal intensive care unit, that I discovered my true passion – the care of newborns. Fueled by this newfound passion, I made the decision to venture into the world of Doula and Newborn care services along with my nurse career. Since 2016, I've been a support system for countless families, offering my expertise and care to new parents, along with support as a Babysitter/nanny for infants - I'm a Postpartum and Infant care Doula Certified (CD-PIC), CPR, AED and first aid certificated, Trustline background check registered, and Vaccines up to date- Covid-19, Flu, T-dap

Growing up, I have always been fascinated by human development and evolution through a physiological and spiritual framework. Watching how teaching fulfilled my grandmother, and still watching how social work fulfills my mother, has given me the greatest gift of what community care and education can do. During my pursuit of an Anthropology and Education Bachelor of Arts degree, the core curriculum that helped me to inform and build the foundation of care I offer, involved studying gender, endocrinology, ecology, anatomy and physiology. Soon into my program, I began my official training as a full spectrum doula, focusing on fertility, birth, and the postpartum period. My work prioritizes genuine connection and evidence based care. I am deeply grateful to all of those who came before me, including my mother and grandmother, mentors and friends, who have offered their support and guidance. The powerful women in my life have, without a doubt, shaped and influence the work I do today. I am always striving to better my practice and offerings through constant education. I recognize each girl, women, and those with uteruses, all have unique journeys and experiences. It is my priority to bring the same calming, encouraging, and positive energy to each person to educate, empower, and help guide them into making informed decisions about their health and well-being.

I am Camila, founder of Sweet Tangerine Newborn Care. I am originally from Brazil and first moved to the U. S. as an Au Pair, but my story as a caregiver didn't start there. I've been working with children since 2011 when I started teaching preschool. Since then, I have always been involved in the area of education and child care. When I moved to San Francisco, I also had the opportunity to work as a nanny taking care of infants and toddlers. Being around babies and kids, and teaching them to develop and become amazing humans is a big part of me. I have dedicated myself to learning more and specializing in newborn care, which is the area that I love the most, especially now that I became a mom myself. Additional to my vast experience, I have a Master's degree in education science and many complementary courses in the area, such as Newborn Care Specialist, CPR, and first AID.
