Childcare, Nanny and Babysitting Services in Mexico City
Totters Care provides professional in-home childcare, nanny, and babysitting services in Mexico City, designed specifically for international families relocating, living here long term, or staying for a defined period of time for work, lifestyle, or surrogacy. We support children from infancy through early school age with thoughtful, developmentally aware care delivered directly in the home. In Mexico City, our role is to bring steadiness, structure, and emotional safety into your family’s daily life so your child feels secure while you focus on settling, working, or building your next chapter with confidence.
For the past nine years, Totters has worked with international families across Mexico City’s most established and globally connected neighborhoods, including Polanco, Lomas de Chapultepec, Santa Fe, Pedregal, Condesa, Roma, and San Ángel. We support executives, entrepreneurs, diplomats, and high-net-worth families who value education, emotional safety, and intentional development. If you are building a life here, you likely want more than basic childcare. You want a structured, enriching environment that supports your child’s emotional well-being while reflecting the standards and stability you expect for your family.
Relocating or living abroad with children can feel overwhelming. Standards feel unclear, routines are disrupted, and much of the responsibility falls on you. Families choose Totters because we understand that childcare during transition is not just practical, it is emotional. You are not simply hiring help. You are building a support system inside your home. Our work is to provide professional, reliable care that helps your child feel grounded, supported, and confident as your family adjusts to life in Mexico City.
How it works

Step 1: In depth family assessment and needs mapping
We begin with a detailed consultation to understand your family’s values, routines, expectations, and your child’s emotional and developmental needs.

Step 2: Careful caregiver selection and matching
We hand select and evaluate professionals through interviews, background checks, skill assessments, and emotional competency screening to ensure the right fit for your home.

Step 3: Ongoing support, monitoring, and continuity of care
Once care begins, we provide continuous guidance, structured follow ups, backup planning, and ongoing communication to maintain consistency and long term stability.

Professional Childcare Program
If you are relocating to Mexico City or settling into a new rhythm here, you are likely carrying a lot. New systems, new routines, new expectations. And at the same time, you want your child to feel steady, safe, and supported. You are not looking for casual babysitting. You are looking for intentional, professional in-home childcare that understands how relocation can affect children emotionally.
When care feels consistent and structured, you start to see the difference. Your child becomes more regulated. Mornings feel smoother. Transitions feel lighter. You are not constantly explaining or supervising because a trained, emotionally attuned caregiver is creating a rhythm in your home. Families in Mexico City often tell us that once this support is in place, everything else feels more manageable.
This care is delivered in person in your home across Polanco, Lomas de Chapultepec, Santa Fe, Condesa, Roma, and surrounding neighborhoods. Each day blends emotional presence with thoughtful developmental activities that support language, creativity, and confidence. This is not supervision. It is a structured childcare program designed to help your child feel secure while you build your life in Mexico City with greater clarity and peace of mind.
Early Childhood Learning Program
If you have relocated to Mexico City and want your child’s development to continue with intention, not interruption, our Early Childhood Learning Program was designed for you. Many international families worry that during relocation, learning becomes secondary to logistics. You may want your child to stay stimulated, confident, and engaged, while adjusting to a new home, language, and rhythm.
A trained early childhood educator comes directly to your home and creates a personalized learning plan based on your child’s age, personality, and developmental stage. The curriculum is adapted to your family’s values and goals, whether that includes language enrichment, early literacy, numeracy foundations, creative expression, or social emotional growth. Parents often notice their child becoming more focused, more expressive, and more secure in their abilities once learning feels consistent again.
Sessions are delivered in person across Mexico City in neighborhoods like Polanco, Santa Fe, Lomas de Chapultepec, Condesa, and Roma. Learning is woven naturally into the home environment through structured play, reading, hands-on activities, creative projects, guided conversation, and developmentally appropriate challenges. Instead of feeling like school at home, it feels enriching and steady. You gain clarity knowing your child is progressing, and your child gains confidence knowing they are supported by a professional educator near you who understands both development and transition.
Childcare for Families Relocating to Mexico and Latin American countries
If you are relocating to Mexico City with children , you are managing far more than a move. You are helping your child adjust to a new language, new surroundings, and new routines while handling the logistics of settling into a different country. Many international families look for childcare near you that understands relocation is emotional, not just practical.
When care is structured specifically for this stage, the transition feels more stable. Your child has a steady, emotionally attuned caregiver who helps create daily rhythm inside your home while everything else is changing outside of it. Parents often feel immediate relief knowing their child is supported by someone who understands adjustment periods and respects your family’s values and expectations.
This in-person childcare is delivered in your home across Mexico City, including Polanco, Lomas de Chapultepec, Santa Fe, Condesa, Roma, and Pedregal. Support includes structured routines, enriching activities, language reinforcement if needed, and emotional presence that helps your child build confidence in their new environment. Instead of simply helping you manage relocation, we help your child feel secure within it, so your family can settle into life in Mexico City with greater clarity and peace of mind.
Infant Baby Sitter
Infant babysitting in Mexico City supports international families caring for newborns and babies during relocation, extended stays, or major life transitions. This service is designed for your family if you need more than occasional help and want structured, emotionally aware care inside your home. If you are navigating sleep disruption, feeding adjustments, or the intensity of settling into a new country with a baby, this support is meant to bring steadiness back into your day.
Care focuses on creating calm, predictable rhythms and responsive interaction that helps your baby feel secure. Sessions support sleep consistency, sensory development, early communication, and regulation in ways that feel gentle rather than overstimulating. Families near you often seek this support after realizing that informal babysitting does not provide the structure or developmental awareness their baby needs during transition.
Services are delivered in person across Mexico City, including Polanco, Lomas de Chapultepec, Santa Fe, Condesa, and surrounding neighborhoods. A trained caregiver comes directly to your home, aligning with your parenting preferences while bringing professional infant experience that prioritizes safety and continuity.

In-Home Preschool
In-home preschool in Mexico City supports international families who want early learning to continue with intention during relocation or long-term stays. This service is designed for your family if you want more than passive care and are looking for a structured, enriching environment inside your home. If your child is in the early preschool years and you are concerned about maintaining developmental momentum while adjusting to a new country, this support provides clarity and continuity.
The shift often becomes visible within weeks. Your child begins engaging more confidently, expressing ideas more clearly, and settling into predictable learning rhythms. Instead of wondering whether development is being maintained, you see consistent growth. Families near you often seek this option when traditional preschool settings feel overwhelming, unavailable, or misaligned with international transition needs.
A trained early childhood educator comes directly to your home in Mexico City, including Polanco, Lomas de Chapultepec, Santa Fe, Condesa, Roma, and Pedregal. The program is personalized to your child and may include early literacy foundations, numeracy concepts, language enrichment, creative exploration, sensory activities, and guided social-emotional development. Learning feels structured but calm, intentional but flexible. This approach allows your child to build confidence and school readiness while your family settles into life in Mexico City with stability and peace of mind.
In-Home Tutoring and Homeschool Teacher
In-home tutoring and homeschool support in Mexico City is designed for international families who want academic continuity during relocation or long-term living abroad. If you are concerned about learning gaps, shifting school systems, or maintaining high standards while adjusting to a new country, this service provides structured educational stability inside your home.
This work focuses on strengthening foundational skills, restoring academic confidence, and creating clarity where school transitions may have caused disruption. Sessions support reading and writing development, mathematics reasoning, executive functioning, organization, and long-term learning habits. Families who have worked with us often say the difference is not just improved grades, but renewed motivation and emotional steadiness around learning.
Support is delivered in person across Mexico City, including Polanco, Santa Fe, Lomas de Chapultepec, Condesa, and surrounding neighborhoods. Each program is personalized to your child’s grade level, learning style, and future academic goals. Rather than relying on isolated tutoring, you are supported by a structured system that designs curriculum, monitors progress, and ensures consistency. The result is academic growth that feels intentional and sustainable while your family builds its life in Mexico City.
Temporary Nanny
Temporary nanny support in Mexico City is designed for international families visiting for a short time, staying seasonally, or navigating relocation phases when a long-term placement is not yet needed. If you are here for work travel, vacation, a wedding, a business event, or an extended stay, you still want the same level of professionalism and safety you expect at home. This service is for you if you need structured, reliable childcare near you without committing to a permanent arrangement.
The shift many parents experience is immediate relief. Instead of spending valuable time interviewing informally or worrying about reliability, you have a professionally screened caregiver integrated into your stay. Your children benefit from calm routines, age-appropriate engagement, and emotional presence even in temporary environments like hotels or rental properties. Families who work with us during short stays often say the difference is not just coverage, but the confidence that their child is intentionally supported, not casually.
Care is delivered in person across Mexico City, including Polanco, Lomas de Chapultepec, Santa Fe, Condesa, Roma, Pedregal, and surrounding neighborhoods. Support may include newborn care, structured play, museum outings, event assistance, evening coverage, and travel rhythm reinforcement. Even when the timeline is short, placement is thoughtful and supervised by the Totters system to ensure safety, consistency, and professionalism. Temporary does not mean informal. It means structured support designed to make your time in Mexico City smoother and more secure.
Surrogacy Support
Surrogacy support in Mexico City is designed for international intended parents who are navigating one of the most important transitions of their lives. If you are coming to Mexico for a surrogacy journey, you are likely managing legal processes, medical coordination, travel logistics, and emotional anticipation all at once. During this time, structured newborn and infant care inside your home or temporary residence can provide stability and reassurance.
This support focuses on helping you transition into parenthood with confidence. Instead of feeling overwhelmed by sleep schedules, feeding routines, and recovery logistics in a new country, you have a trained caregiver who understands newborn development and the sensitivity of this stage. Families near you often seek this care to create a calm structure in the first weeks and months, allowing bonding to happen without exhaustion taking over.
Care is delivered in person across Mexico City, including Polanco, Lomas de Chapultepec, Santa Fe, and surrounding neighborhoods where many international families stay during their surrogacy process. Support may include newborn routines, feeding assistance, sleep rhythm reinforcement, and gentle guidance as you settle into parenthood abroad. This is not casual help. It is intentional, emotionally aware care designed to support your family as you begin a new life chapter in Mexico City.

“I chose to work with them because from the very beginning, their communication and service proposal felt highly professional.
One of the things I value most is the peace of mind they provide by offering backup support if my nanny is unavailable—especially important when I have scheduled surgeries I can’t postpone.”
