Hi! My name is Claudia and I'm a patient, warm, and dedicated nanny who truly loves working with children and supporting their growth every single day. 🌟 Originally from Colombia, I bring over 2 years of hands-on experience caring for babies from 5 months old up to toddlers. My experience includes diaper changes, tummy time, introducing solid foods, and supporting key developmental milestones such as rolling over and transitioning from bassinet to crib. I've also helped establish healthy nap and feeding routines, engaged children in age-appropriate activities, and taken them on outdoor walks — creating a calm, loving, and structured environment where little ones can truly thrive. I'm currently based in downtown San Jose and I'm available from 6:00 AM to 2:00 PM, making me a great fit for morning and early afternoon care. I'm comfortable with pets and I'm a non-smoker. Beyond childcare, I'm a driven and responsible person — I'm currently preparing for my IELTS exam as I get ready to pursue my Master's in Statistics next year. I believe my analytical mindset helps me be attentive, observant, and proactive when it comes to a child's development and routine. I'm also an active person who loves the outdoors — I've recently taken up bouldering climbing and enjoy staying active, which means I bring plenty of energy and enthusiasm to playtime! 🧗‍♀️ I'm genuinely looking for a long-term connection with a family, not just a short-term arrangement. Watching children grow, learn, and reach new milestones is something I'm truly passionate about, and I would love to bring that dedication and positive energy to your home every day. I'm happy to provide references from previous families upon request. I look forward to meeting you! 😊

Hi! My name is Taylor, and I'm currently a junior at Santa Clara studying Engineering. I am offering child care and household services. I love babysitting and hanging out with kids. I have been watching toddlers and kids since I was 15 years old. My responsibilities have included school/camp pickup, crafts, skiing, tutoring, and putting kids to bed. I am also happy to cook, clean, and run errands. Additionally, I have no issues with pets and am happy to take care of/walk dogs.

**Please note: I do not generally take care of sick children. Please let me know in advance if anyone in your family is sick, especially if they’re contagious, so I can decide whether or not to come. If I’m not told about your sick child until I arrive, I reserve the right to leave to protect myself and the other children in my care. Thank you for understanding** I’m currently working full time as a manager in tech and am only babysitting very occasionally to supplement my income. I was a nanny throughout college to a family with two children, including one with autism. I’ve been babysitting for years for children of a variety of ages. I am not currently available for any regularly scheduled, part time, or full time positions. Please don’t hesitate to reach out if you’d like to discuss further.
