Booked by 1 family in San Bruno, CA

Hi! My name is Jhennifer, I’m Brazilian, and I'm currently living in San Francisco, California. I am offering child care services. I have more than 12 years of experience caring for children of different ages, from babies to teenagers. In Brazil, I worked at a preschool as an assistant teacher and cared for several children across different age groups. Currently, in San Francisco, I work as a caregiver for an 8-month-old baby and his siblings (4 and 5 years old), handling routines like feeding, baths, bedtime, and engaging activities. I’m responsible, patient, and truly enjoy creating fun, age-and-development-appropriate activities. I also love cooking and keeping kids safe and entertained. I speak Portuguese natively and am currently improving my English. I am excited to help local families who need a reliable and experienced babysitter!

Jhanine $30 per hour for 1 child

Hi everyone! My name is Jhanine, I’m 22 years old and currently a nursing student pursuing my passion for caring for others. I’ve always had a special place in my heart for working with kids. There’s something so genuine, energetic, and joyful about being around children that really inspires me and reminds me why I chose nursing in the first place. Although I haven’t officially worked in a pediatric setting yet, I come from a big, loving, and caring family where looking out for one another is just part of who we are. Being surrounded by cousins, siblings, and family gatherings has naturally helped me develop patience, warmth, and a nurturing personality. Through babysitting, I’ve been able to bring that same positive, supportive energy and create a safe, fun, and caring environment for kids. I’m excited to continue growing in my nursing journey and hopefully work with children in the future, combining my education with the genuine care and compassion that comes from my family roots.
