Berenice $25 per hour for 1 child

I am a nurturing, patient, and reliable caregiver with over five years of experience working with children from infancy through school age. I began babysitting in high school and quickly discovered how fulfilling it is to support families and create a warm, positive environment for kids. I truly enjoy being part of their everyday growth whether it’s helping them learn something new, guiding them through emotions, or simply making their day brighter through engaging play. As a new mother myself, I have hands-on experience with infant care, including feeding, soothing, diapering, and maintaining healthy routines. Over the years, I have developed strong communication skills, a calm and gentle approach, and the ability to adapt to each child’s unique personality and needs. I am committed to providing safe, attentive, and loving care while supporting parents in any way I can, including light household tasks and maintaining consistent routines.

Hi! My name is Amanda, and I currently live in Benicia, California. I recently graduated from the University of New Hampshire with a Bachelor's degree in Biomedical Engineering and will be pursuing my Master's over the next year. In the meantime, I'm looking to nanny and would love to support a great family! I have very flexible hours and am certified in both First Aid and CPR. I have over eight years of experience working with children of all ages and truly love what I do. I have previously worked as an Assistant Daycare Teacher, where I focused on creating a safe, fun, and nurturing environment while working closely with parents to support each child's individual needs. I have also spent my summers working at a baseball camp for toddlers, so I'm very comfortable keeping kids active, engaged, and entertained. I always aim to make kids feel happy, safe, and and cared for. I'd love the opportunity to help out your family!

“Mayra was our daughter's nanny for 1 year (6-18 months of age) and we had a wonderful experience. We met Mayra during the thick of the pandemic and we could not have had a better partner. Our daughter, my wife and i love Mayra and it was with a very heavy heart that we parted ways when we determined that our daughter needed to go to daycare/school. Mayra was always extremely careful and loving with our daughter and we always felt she was in great hands. She formed a very especial bond with our daughter and always stimulated her physically and intellectually. Our daughter easily completed all of the age-appropriate transitions with Mayra's help. They read, played, went to the park, and did arts and crafts. Mayra also cooked frequently for our daughter and fed her healthy and balanced meals. Our daughter was always happy to see Mayra. She has a wonderfully calm demeanor that helped our daughter be calm most of the times. When our daughter slept Mayra helped us with our baby's laundry and folding clothes. We have met other nannies and Mayra definitely stands out. From a personality perspective, Mayra is very discreet, easy going and a pleasure to be around. We highly recommend her.”

"We were incredibly grateful that Maya was able to help us out with a last-minute childcare emergency. She matched our 9-year-old's energy with arts & crafts, some quiet reading, and a walk around the neighborhood. We'd have Maya back in a heartbeat!"
