Booked by 78 families in Cupertino, CA

Hello! My name is Amada, and I’ve had the joy of caring for children and supporting Bay Area families for the past 15 years. I’m currently offering dependable backup care for times when your regular caregiver isn’t available. My love for children began early as the oldest of 10 and grew even deeper through the experience of raising my own twins, who are now college graduates. I especially enjoy caring for newborns through age 7 and have lots of experience with twins and multiples. I love creating a calm, nurturing environment with storytelling, age-appropriate play, and plenty of warmth and encouragement. I’m also currently training to become a certified infant sleep consultant and enjoy supporting new parents with gentle routines and postpartum care. I’d love to be a trusted helping hand when your family needs one!
