Hello Parents! My name is Jessica, and I’m an experienced, caring, and reliable nanny with 7 years of experience working with children of all ages. Legally authorized to work .I specialize in creating a fun, safe, and nurturing environment while supporting children’s development through engaging activities and structured routines. My journey began in 2019 in Connecticut, where I worked with two wonderful families. I cared for three children—two boys (ages 4 and 7) and a girl (8 years old)—for six months, and then transitioned to a second family with four kids, including 3-year-old twins, a 9-year-old boy, and an 11-year-old girl. After moving to California, I spent 1 year and 6 months caring for two lovely girls, aged 4 and 7. And after that I had the opportunity to care for a baby girl, starting when she was 11 months old until she was 1 year and 7 months and with the same family I worked caring for their second daughter from 4 months to 2 years old. ✔️ My skills :Time management , Creative Planning, Emergency response, Excellent Communication skills, Problem Solving, Proactive,Patient . Services I offer : ✅ Last minute nanny service ( save my contact for future work) ✅ Overnight, house sitting and weekends . ( if you need help in a party too) ✅ Errand running & household organization ✅ House assistant services (Google suite experience,schedule appointments , and others ) I’m passionate about helping children grow, learn, and thrive, and I’d love to bring my experience to your family. Looking forward to connecting! Thank you!

I am currently working as a lead preschool teacher. I have been working for the school for over 5 years. I have a bachelors degree in Human Development with a concentration in Childhood development. I am still actively taking classes to obtain my site supervisor early childhood education permit. I enjoy working with young children and helping them grow into confident, caring individuals. I love to spend quality time with them and help them reach their goals. I have passion, love, and patience for the work that I do. I am responsible and caring and value each child for who they are.
“She was awesome with our 2 yr old. We highly recommend her and would definitely have her again.”
Hi! I’m a 32-year-old professional nanny from Turkey with over six years of childcare experience. I spent two years as an au pair and have been working with wonderful families in San Francisco for more than four years. During this time, I’ve cared for children of all ages and needs—everything from premature babies to children with special needs. I’m also trained in the Montessori approach and have developed strong skills in sleep training and potty training, which I love using to make life easier for families. I’m experienced in all aspects of childcare, including laundry, meal prep, cleaning, bath time, diaper changes, and planning fun, engaging activities. Families often describe me as calm, proactive, and adaptable, with a positive attitude that helps me handle any situation. I also enjoy cooking and love creating meals that suit a family’s unique preferences. What’s most important to me is building a close, family-like bond with the families I work with. I strive to be a trusted role model and a “big sister” to the children I care for, sharing my skills and life experiences in a way that helps them grow. If you’re looking for someone who’s caring, responsible, and truly passionate about working with kids, I’d love to meet you!
