Hello! I’m Karol, the proud owner of Curious Minds Childcare, a daycare located in San Jose, California. I have 8 years of experience working with children, and I am a graduate in Early Childhood Education. I am passionate about providing a safe, loving, and educational environment where children can learn, play, and grow. I offer childcare exclusively at my daycare location. I do not provide babysitting or nanny services in families’ homes. At Curious Minds Childcare, we focus on early childhood development, hands-on learning, creativity, independence, and social-emotional growth. If you’re looking for a nurturing and reliable daycare for your little one, I would love to welcome your family! Please message me to learn more about our programs, enrollment, and availability.
Hi! My name is Jennifer, and I’m currently working as a veterinary assistant for a veterinary cardiologist. I’ve been caring for kids since I was about 12 years old—starting with my younger sister, then helping out family and friends. Over the years, I’ve gained experience with children of all ages, and it’s something I truly enjoy. Outside of my passion for caring for animals. Most recently, I worked as a nanny and house manager for a wonderful family over the course of three years. I love creating a fun, safe, and engaging environment for kids, and I take pride in being reliable and proactive in helping households run smoothly. Looking forward to connecting with you! Cancellation Policy: Full payment is required for cancellations made within 5 hours of the scheduled time. Thanks for understanding!
“Great sitter, would definitely use again!”
Hi! I’m taking time off from studying behavioral and cognitive neuroscience at UCSD and looking for occasional work. I started volunteering at a daycare that my high school had and fell in love with it. I found kids energy, excitement for life, curiosity, and imagination to be contagious. I am a caring, compassionate, patient person which makes it easy for me to interact with kids. After babysitting for over 5 years and working with different families I have gained experience with kids of all ages. I have CPR training, am fully vaccinated and also had my booster shot.
“Great service, she took good care of both of our kids. Very professional and would highly recommend.”
Hello! My name is Mariana and I am 28 years old. I live I San Jose and have been working as a nanny in the Bay Area for the past 3 years. I first came to California as a live in nanny through the au pair program from Colombia. I have since attended San Jose city college to study the English language, in which I am fluent, along with my native language Spanish. Before that I went to school to become a preschool teacher. I am CPR certified, attentive and very responsible. I take my job very seriously and am always on time. I like to keep the children happy and active, through games, reading, going for walks, playing, etc. I am willing to do light cooking and cleaning when needed. I love working with children and have experience working with all ages. I look forward to hearing from you!

"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!"
Hillary S., parent
"We used Tania for a last minute emergency. She responded very quickly. My daughter seemed to enjoy herself. My son napped most of the time. I enjoyed how she kept me updated by text."
