About Santa Cruz Domestic Staffing

Santa Cruz Domestic Staffing was founded on the belief that every family deserves support that feels calm, grounded, and genuinely aligned with their home environment.

She also saw the challenges families face when trying to find someone they truly trust.

After years of hands-on experience working closely with children and families as a nanny, founder Jocelyn saw firsthand how deeply the right caregiver can impact the emotional wellbeing and daily rhythm of a household.

And she saw how often caregivers struggled to feel fully heard, valued, or supported within the placement process.

Santa Cruz Domestic Staffing was created to bridge that gap.

A More Thoughtful Approach to Placement

We believe successful placements are built on more than schedules and qualifications.

Every family has unique values, communication styles, routines, and expectations. Every caregiver brings their own personality, strengths, and approach to care.

That is why we take the time to truly understand both sides before making a match.

Our role is not simply to fill a position. Our role is to help create supportive, long-term relationships that allow families and caregivers to thrive together.

What We Value

Calm & Grounded Care

We believe children thrive in environments that feel peaceful, stable, and nurturing.

Advocacy for Families & Caregivers

We create a safe and respectful process where both parties feel heard and supported.

Integrity & Transparency

Clear communication and honesty are at the center of everything we do.

Reliability & Safety

Families deserve confidence and peace of mind when welcoming someone into their home.

Our Vision

Our vision is to become a trusted resource for families seeking intentional, relationship-centered care throughout Santa Cruz and surrounding communities.

We are committed to helping families build strong support systems while creating meaningful opportunities for exceptional caregivers.
