Hi my name is Mikayla and I am currently a student at San Jose State studying child development. I have a passion for working with kids and I have a lot of experience working with all ages. I am super outgoing and a very organized person. With my major I have been able to learn a lot about children and how to be a good care giver at the best of my ability. I enjoy being outdoors and spending quality time with my niece who is 10 who I have babysat on multiple occasions since she was an infant. I am super flexible and excited to work with new families!

Booked by 2 families in Cupertino, CA

Hi families! My name is Angie, and I’m an experienced and caring nanny currently looking to take on a few extra hours with another family! I have 2+ years of experience caring for infants and toddlers. I’m experienced with feeding routines, naps, diaper changes, age-appropriate activities, outdoor play, and creating a safe, loving environment where little ones can learn and grow. I’m reliable, patient, nurturing, and truly love working with little ones. I’d love to connect with a family looking for some extra childcare support! If you’re looking for a nanny, feel free to send me a message with the days and hours you need. I’d love to chat and see if we’re a good fit! 😊

Booked by 1 family in Cupertino, CA

I’m a responsible, energetic, and caring babysitter with experience working with children of all ages. I previously worked with Busy Bees Babysitting in Phoenix, Arizona, where I babysat part-time during the off-season while playing collegiate basketball at Grand Canyon University for three years. This experience helped me develop strong skills in childcare, safety, and keeping kids engaged in fun, age-appropriate activities. I recently moved to San Jose to finish my final year of basketball at San José State University, and my athletic background has strengthened my discipline, leadership, and time management skills. I genuinely enjoy working with kids, as a come from a big family, and creating a positive, safe, and fun environment for them. I’m patient, dependable, and great at building connections with children and families. I’m also happy to help with light household tasks, homework, and daily routines. I look forward to meeting your family!
