Hello family, My name is "Jane" or you can call me "Tanya" and I'm from Thailand. I'm 29 years old. Dependable, honest, caring, trustworthy, organized, respectful, positive are all words that I would use to describe myself. Also I'm a non smoker or dont drink. I have 5 years+ experiences at daycare in Thailand and I just finished 1 year in Au pair in America program. Now, I work as a nanny in Bay area almost 2 years. I have been working with a lot of children including infants - toddler. I also have experiences with baby who has food allergies, reflux and helmet therapy. Also, I know how to do CPR, fully vaccinated and I have my own car with clean record. I work well with children and always treat them like they are my own. I enjoy being part of a child's growth. My goal as a Nanny is to have the children's best interest in mind, make sure the children are safe, clean and having fun while also learning. I'm a nanny who full of energy, creative and can organise activities, arts and crafts and educational activities etc. but I would love to follow your instruction as well. I also can do a lot of duties and take care of all things related to the baby, including diaper change, food prep, play time, naps, baby clothes laundry and take the baby out on walks etc. Not only am I patient, caring and nurturing, I am also extremely organized and very detailed when it comes to work. I'm pet friendly and have the flexibility to work and can do extra hour if you need help. I have a lot of family who can be my references, I can also provide it to you upon request. Please feel free to talk to me. I'd love to meet your family and get to know your baby. Thank you for your time. I look forward to talking to you! :) Sincerely yours, Jane

“Here's a review for Jane: Jane has been wonderful with our kids, and we feel so lucky to have found her! She's organized, friendly, and incredibly warm. Our 2-year-old is usually very reserved with strangers, but warmed up to her right away, and our 4-year-old absolutely adores her — she even saved the sticker Jane gave her. They spend their days playing with lots of toys and activities, both indoors and at the playground. Jane is also very responsive, keeping us updated with pictures and videos throughout the day. We couldn't recommend her more!”

"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."
