Dear family Hi! My name is Jennifer. I’d love to share a little about my experience as a nanny/ family assistant. If you’d like to know more about me, I’d be happy to set up a phone call or even a trial day so we can meet and see if we’re a good match. I consider myself a grounded, friendly, warm, honest, respectful, and with a loving spirit person. I started babysitting when I was 17 years old because of my innate comfort with children and being able to connect with them at their level while respecting them. I am up to date with a CPR certification for all ages, I have experience taking care of kids of different ages but I specialize in infant and toddler care. During the last years, I have been working as a full-time nanny and family assistant, I love my job! I love to spend time outside, take kids to the park, library, activities, or do some art at home. 2[removed]: I worked as an au pair for two years with an amazing family in Sacramento, taking care of two girls(5 months and 4 years old) Feb 2021- May 2022: I took care of two amazing girls (4yo and 9yo) and a baby boy (5 months old). Sept 2022- Jan 2025: I worked for a family in San Jose Ca, taking care of two boys (15months and 5 years old) I used to do drop-offs, pick-ups from school, and activities, and care for the baby all day from 7:30 to 4pm, including diapering, feeding, napping, reading, singing and walks to the park and library. 2025- now: I am currently helping several families different times a week, taking care of kids that are 10months old, 2 and 5 years old and also helping some one of the families as a family assistant (grocery shopping, packages return/delivery, dry cleaning pick up, etc). My responsibilities have included, driving kids to/from school or activities, taking them to the park, playing, reading books, cleaning after them, everything kid’s related. I know how tough it can be to find the right match that you can trust and feel comfortable leaving your precious little one with. Rest assured, my primary intention is to give quality care to your child, support you in every way I am able, and create a safe environment for your dear ones. Please if you have questions or need references of my previous work let me know and I’ll be happy to share the info with you. I have transportation and a clean driving record. Thank you!

Hello Everyone! 😊I am a bilingual (Chinese and English), energetic, and genuine sitter who loves caring for children! I am here to offer childcare household, and pet services. I am ready to take on any task you hand my way! 🤗 I've previously worked at a summer camp for children aged 6-13. Here a few of responsibilities included: watching children, disinfecting classrooms before and after snack/ lunchtime, and communicating child's concerns with parents. I have also babysat for family members in the past (Toddlers- Elementary school aged). So I have experience changing diapers, working with shy children, playing engaging games, and having a fun time! 😄 I also enjoy playing sports, a few of which include: baseball, softball, golf, and basketball. I am always excited to indulge in a high intensity activity, or a calm night in. I am also highly skilled in cooking, and love creating delicious and unique dishes. If you would like to do an interview prior to hiring, I am also open to that. P.S: I am only available during the summer months (May- Early September).

"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."
