Joovana 1 review
$35 per hour for 1 child

Hi Bay Area families,🌉 I’m Joovana, I’m a mom, a mother’s helper, and someone who genuinely loves taking care of kids and helping families.🤍 I’ve been caring for children for over 20 years and have had the opportunity to help more than 100 families through Care and Nextdoor, I have caring for everyone from newborns to teenagers. I was a Sunday school teacher for 8 years as well. I’m the kind of person who likes to jump in and help wherever I’m needed. Need someone to pick up the kids, run to the grocery store, help with potty training, change diapers, clean bottles, do laundry, fold and put clothes away, tidy up, or even make dinner? I’m happy to help. Being a parent is already hard, while juggling with work, life and family, let me help you! And if your kids just want someone to hang out and play with them, I’m there for that too! I love reading, playing, getting outside, doing activities, and just being present with kids. I’m not on my phone while I’m caring for them, and I’m happy to follow your family’s preferences when it comes to screen time and routines. I’m also a mom to 5 great kids, my oldest is 21 and youngest is 3, so I understand how much an extra set of reliable hands can mean! I have a clean driving record, I love organizing and helping manage a home, and most importantly, I really love kids. Oh, and I’m CPR certified! Whether you need a mother’s helper, house manager, part-time help, date-night care, or simply someone to come in and make your day a little easier, that’s exactly what I’m here for. You’ll find someone reliable, friendly, caring, and ready to help wherever you need me. ❤️ I live in San Mateo, and willing to drive up to 15 miles to help you.🤍

“Joovana has worked with our family for more than a year, caring for our son from when he was about 9 months old until he recently started school. She has been a wonderful caregiver and is genuinely loving, patient, and caring with children. Our son is usually very cautious around people he meets for the first time and normally takes a while to warm up. We were very impressed that Joovana was able to make him feel comfortable enough to nap with her on the very first day they met. From the beginning, she built a very special and trusting relationship with him. Joovana has been great to work with, and we always felt that our son was in caring and capable hands. Even now that he is in school and doesn’t see her regularly, he still sometimes says Joovana’s name at home, which says a lot about how much he likes and remembers her. We are very grateful for the care and love Joovana has given our son over the past year and would happily recommend her to other families looking for a kind and dependable caregiver.”

Booked by 4 families in El Granada, CA

Hello, my name is Marisa. I currently run my own petsitting & dog walking business while nannying part time. I have over 15 years of experience babysitting and nannying, and I enjoy working with children of all ages! I have both personal and professional experience working with children who are neurodivergent, including children on the ASD spectrum and with ADHD. I am patient, caring, and compassionate, and I work well with parents/caregivers to meet the specific needs of their family! I am also skilled in managing school pick-up and drop-off routines for multiple children. In my free time I enjoy hanging out with my friends and cat, going to concerts, going to the movie theater to watch oldies, and playing claw machines at Round1. Please message me to double check availability, as my calendar may not always be up to date. Cancellation Policy: If bookings are cancelled by the parent/caregiver within 24 hours of the start time of the booking, I charge a fee of 50% of the total booking to help offset the loss of wages on short notice.

“Marisa was punctual, responsive and very sweet towards my son! We will be asking for her help again!”

Booked by 9 families in El Granada, CA

Hello, my name is Natalia. I am a patient, caring, and responsible childcare provider with several years of hands-on experience as a live-in nanny. I cared for an infant from 8 months old for two years, supporting daily routines such as feeding, naps, developmental play, and creating a safe, nurturing environment. I also worked as a live-in nanny for a family with two children (ages 6 and 10) for one year, where I assisted with school routines and daily activities. My responsibilities have included driving children to and from school and extracurricular activities, meal preparation, light housekeeping, laundry, and running errands such as grocery shopping, returns, and car washes. I am organized, proactive, and always focused on helping families maintain a smooth and structured routine. I truly enjoy spending time with children, engaging them in creative activities like arts and crafts, playing, and encouraging their curiosity and imagination. What I love most about children is their honesty and how they constantly surprise us with their unique perspectives. I am committed to providing a safe, supportive, and positive environment where children can feel happy and thrive

“She was very good with my 1 year old son. She took him outside for a walk in the stroller. She played with him, engaged and connected with him. I heard giggles come out of baby and that's always a happy feeling. Showed up on time to work and stayed the full 8 hour assignment. I would hire her again.”

With over seven years of childcare experience in the United States, I am dedicated to providing a safe, nurturing, and engaging environment for children. In addition to my experience as a nanny, I worked as a teacher in Brazil, where I taught Portuguese as a second language in a multicultural school for children of diplomats. I also have a background as a Brazilian lawyer, which strengthened my organization, responsibility, and problem-solving skills. I am passionate about supporting children’s development, creating structured routines, and fostering a positive and caring environment. I would love the opportunity to contribute to your family.

“Arrived on time, responsive and very professional. Kids like her too.”

Booked by 10 families in El Granada, CA

Hello, I have experience with all ages. Infants and toddlers in particular. I’ve worked with one family for 13 years. They have 4 kids. I’ve worked with them since their oldest was an infant and now she is 14. I’m mainly with their toddler recently who I’ve also been with since she was an infant. They have 2 other school age children that I also care for. At this time their schedules are such that they don’t need childcare. I worked for the afterschool program at Alvarado Elementary in San Francisco for many years when my children attended school there. I love exploring all the parks and museums the Bay Area has to offer, reading books, crafts, cooking and baking if age appropriate. Look forward to talking with you! Thanks, Colleen Champion

"Johanna is AMAZING! My two boys love her - she does everything from amazing arts & crafts, to helping with homework, to getting them playing outside! She also drives them and does everything involved with after school activities: packing snacks, getting the right gear, etc."

"When we hired Amani, we felt like we hit the jackpot. We were very lucky to find her on UrbanSitter at the beginning of school year. She was picking up kids from school, taking them to afternoon activities, helping them with assignments. She prepped food for them, helped organize their closets and keep their spaces neat and orderly. We would hire her again in a heartbeat."

"Caitlin has been such a lifesaver for our family. We hired Caitlin to help with the after school routine. The kids took to her instantly. She does it all - school pick ups, dinners, baths, lunch making, clean up, etc. She has really helped make a busy time so much easier for us."
