Palladino Play and Train

Specialties

We are an in-​home personal training/​babysitting team that specialize in making health and fitness convenient for busy parents. We service families on the peninsula from Los Altos, to San Carlos, to Burlingame. Our clients’ goals usually include (but aren’t limited to) combinations of the following: weight loss, firming/​toning, prenatal/​postnatal fitness, overall health/​fitness, running, muscular strength/​endurance, and flexibility. The ages of children we babysit are newborn to toddler.

History

Established in 2013.

The idea of in-​home training combined with babysitting was conceived while driving in the car. Because of Stella’s experience as a babysitter, she was aware of the busy schedules many parents keep and the difficulty of making a trip to the gym. We have since been a part of many families’ successes through and after pregnancy.

Nick and Stella P.

Business Owner

Nick developed his love of fitness as he grew up playing sports and running for Carlmont HS and UC Berkeley. He decided to spend his career as a personal trainer helping others achieve their health and fitness goals. Stella is a UCSC graduate with a passion for working with children. She studied drawing and painting for 4 years in Santa Cruz, during which she discovered that her part time gig of watching kids was her true passion.

We both grew up on the peninsula in the bay area. As a married couple and business partners, we’ve enjoyed being a part of many people’s transformations that allow them to gain confidence, accomplish their goals, and spend more quality time with the ones they love.
