Hello! My name is Jesus and I am a caring, responsible, and dedicated woman with over six years of experience working with young children in a preschool setting, as well as four years of experience providing care for an elderly woman. I have extensive experience caring for children ages 18 months to 4 years old. My responsibilities have included diaper changes, potty training support, preparing and guiding age-appropriate activities, helping with daily routines, and creating a safe, loving, and positive environment where children can learn and grow. As a mother of two children, ages 17 and 19, I understand how important it is for parents to feel confident that their children are receiving patient, respectful, and attentive care. I truly enjoy spending time with children and supporting their development while encouraging their independence, creativity, and confidence. I am CPR certified, and I am committed to providing safe, reliable, and nurturing care for every child I work with. I would love the opportunity to become a trusted caregiver for your family and support your child’s growth and happiness.
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 more than 15 years of experience dealing with children from newborns to 12 years of age, twins and 3 to 5 siblings. I am CPR and first aid certified. I am bilingual (English-Spanish). I speak a little bit of German too. I enjoy working with children. They are so much fun, full of energy and love. I enjoy laughing with them. I like to teach and educate them. I have excellent references. Update: September 30th 2026. Currently looking for a job position on Saturdays and occasional on Sundays. Could be also Friday nights.
“If you're looking for a babysitter you can trust completely, Katia is the one! She has cared for our twins since they were 6 months old, and they absolutely adore her. She treats children like her own, with warmth, patience, and endless energy. Katia is always on time and 100% reliable, so you can head out for date night or a weekend plan with total peace of mind. She keeps parents in the loop with photos and video updates, so you never have to wonder how things are going. She follows your routines and rules, handles behavior with a gentle but consistent touch, and makes sure the kids are happy and well fed. She is fluent in Spanish and helped our twins become bilingual, a wonderful bonus for any family. Her English is excellent, and she communicates clearly and kindly. Kids love her, parents trust her, and she makes every visit fun and safe. We can't recommend Katia highly enough!”
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.
