Fernando $25 per hour for 1 child

My name is Fernando and I am a current after school teacher and college student. I provide child care, pet sitting, and household services. Having raised and taken care of my siblings and cousins has helped me gain experience and knowledge on how to care for younger children. The raising of children and helping families through dependable and quality childcare have been my career highlights over the last six years. Working as a helper with kindergartners in an after-school program has taught me how to be patient, cool-headed, and creative when interacting with kids. I am always eager to adjust to your preference in communication to update you about your child's progress during the day. I drive and absolutely adore animals, so there is no problem having them along with us as part of the fun and excitement.

Booked by 4 families in Alviso, CA

Hello! My name is Paula, and I bring over 10 years of experience working with children of all ages, along with an educational background in Child Development. I’m passionate about creating a safe, fun, and nurturing environment where children feel comfortable, supported, and encouraged to grow. I also had the wonderful opportunity to spend two years as an au pair caring for infant twin boys. That experience deepened my love for early childhood care and taught me the importance of patience, consistency, routine, and creativity during a child’s early development. I’m energetic, reliable, caring, and always happy to jump into activities that encourage both learning and fun. In my free time, I enjoy painting, practicing yoga, and reading, all things I love incorporating into my time with children. Whether we’re getting creative with arts and crafts, staying active, or winding down with a good storybook, I strive to make each day engaging and meaningful. My most recent experience as a caregiver was with a lovely family with 5-year-old twin girls. This experience was incredibly special to me, and those two girls definitely won my heart! We created so many wonderful memories together, from playing and doing arts and crafts to working on homework and learning together. Being part of their daily lives and watching their personalities and creativity grow was truly a beautiful and rewarding experience. And I have to add. I absolutely love animals! I currently have a cat named Onyx, so I’m very comfortable working with families who have pets as well. 🐾 I’m excited to bring my experience, enthusiasm, and positive energy to a new family, and I look forward to supporting your children’s growth, happiness, and well-being.

Paula was our nanny for a year and she was trustworthy, reliable and very loving towards our kids. She has varied skillsets and helped my kids develop their interests in arts and crafts. I would recommend Paula to anyone who is seeking a warm, kind, responsible and resourceful caregiver and I am grateful we were able to find her.
