Hi, I’m Leticia mother of one and a grandmother of four. I was a live in nanny for a military family, family of five for 3 yrs. I also have been nanny for the same family for the last 12 years and now ready to move on to the next stage. I’m experienced with infants, toddlers , twins and school age. I’m dependable timely and committed to creating a safe environment for your family. I have a good driving record in my own transportation. Please feel free to contact me with any questions or set up a time to chat. Thank you for your consideration and I look forward to talking with you. Thank you, LTamayo
I had working with wonderful family taking care of their little one with love , care .
My childcare experience encompasses caring for children of all ages. I am a Teacher's assistant/Para Educator for Sunnyvale School District during the school year (Aug-June),going into my 9th year this fall. I primarily work with Preschool aged children in a Special Day class and Inclusion Classroom settings, with both typically developing children and students with Special needs. I'm married and a mother of a 21 year old, 18 year old and a 14 year old with high functioning Autism and ADD. My two younger children and myself are competitive athletes, so when we are not competing or training, I'm looking for a way to use my free time helping others and earning a little bit of extra money to fund my children's endeavors as well as pay the bills during my summer hiatus as an Educator. Prior to working as an educator, I spent 10 years as a stay at home mother raising my children as well as caring for other infants, toddlers and school aged children throughout my adult life. In my spare time over the past 3 years, I have been studying Early Childhood Education and have obtained 10 ECE units while working towards my AA in PreK Education. Throughout my years working with children I have undergone various trainings including but not limited to: Trauma informed practices/care for children, Personalized Oral Language Learning (POLL), Early learning through Play, Mandated reporter Training, Sexual harassment prevention, Safety Care and CPR/First aid. I'm a very active person and enjoy the outdoors, bike riding, reading, music and exercise. I'm able to run, crawl, climb, jump, dance and be active with kids as needed! I am also fluent in Spanish! I love animals and I have a dog, cat and chickens, so I'm open to helping care for pets as well! I have had my class C drivers license for 20 years (additionally class M for 3 years), full coverage auto insurance and a reliable personal car which accommodates 7 passengers total. A last piece of info about me, is that prior to becoming a mother I worked for Merry Maids and am no stranger to cleaning as well as cooking and running errands. I'm looking forward to meeting your family and working together!
“We couldn’t be more grateful for the incredible care that Helena provides for our boys! She has been a true blessing, always punctual and ready to dive right in with enthusiasm and warmth. From the moment she walks through the door, our boys light up and eagerly ask if she’ll be back soon—proof of how much they love spending time with her. Not only is she amazing with the kids, keeping them entertained and engaged, but she also goes above and beyond by helping keep the house tidy. Her attention to detail and willingness to help with household tasks make our lives so much easier. She comes twice a week in the afternoons, which has given us much-needed time to enjoy date nights or get meal prep and grocery shopping done. Having her around has been a tremendous help, and we truly appreciate everything she does for our family. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, kind, and hardworking nanny. She’s simply the best! 🌟”
I have 5 years of experience caring for children from 3 months to 12 years old, always with love, patience, and reliability. I am fluent in English, a native Portuguese speaker, a pharmacist in Brazil, certified in First Aid and CPR, and trained in child care for lab tests with experience in hospital routines. I also have volunteer experience in daycare centers for low-income families, knowledge of sleep training and baby-led weaning, excellent references, and I’m fully vaccinated. I own a car, have insurance, and a clean driving record.

"UrbanSitter is my go-to for quality sitters! I can book weeks ahead of time or easily find a same-day sitter when in a bind. I even hired a part-time nanny during a daycare transition. Customer service is helpful and babysitters respond in a timely manner."
