Heyyy families! My name is Brooklyn, I’m 27 years old. I have my A.A is Psychology and am pursuing a bachelor’s degree in Nutritional science with a Dietetics concentration. I’m am looking for part-time nanny opportunities. I have been working with kids for over 5 years, with children as little as 5 months old to 16 year olds. I’m young, I’m active, and I know all the new trends these kids are into these days😂 I can help with homework and I always cater a fun and safe environment for your kid to be a kid while also aiding in their milestones! I am also looking for occasional/ regular house sitting opportunities so store my profile away for the holidays, vacations, or just being out of town, when you need your home to be watched and cared for!

Sarah $30 per hour for 1 child

Hi my name is Sarah, I absolutely love being around kids and helping them learn and navigate through everyday life. I love creating a safe, loving, and trustworthy environment for both kids and parents! I have experience caring for children of different ages and I’m comfortable helping with pick-up, play time, homework, and light housekeeping. My goal is to provide attentive care while making sure your children feel safe, loved, and engaged. I am certified in both CPR and first aid. I also have a well maintained car (2014 Subaru Outback) that is up to date with maintenance. I also have experience with special needs! My little sister has down syndrome so I’ve been around special needs my entire life and not just Down syndrome but Autism as well!

Jamiese $30 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Jamiese, but I also go by Miese (pronounced Me-C)! I’m currently a student at San José State University studying Criminology, with plans to pursue a career in law. I have several years of experience working with children of different ages through nannying, babysitting, summer camps, and youth sports programs. I currently work with multiple families throughout the Bay Area, providing morning care, after-school care, transportation to and from activities, and occasional evening and weekend babysitting. I’m a very outgoing, patient, responsible, and energetic person who genuinely enjoys working with children. I love keeping kids active and engaged, whether that’s spending time outdoors, doing arts and crafts, playing games, helping with homework, or finding fun activities that match their interests. Growing up, I participated in competitive cheerleading, dance, track, swimming, and water polo, so staying active has always been a big part of my life! I am also CPR certified and understand how important it is for parents to feel comfortable and confident with the person caring for their children. Safety is always my top priority, and I do my best to create a positive, nurturing, and fun environment while respecting each family’s routines, expectations, and parenting styles. One of my favorite things about nannying is building genuine connections with the children and families I work with. I love watching kids grow, develop their personalities, and become more independent. I believe patience, communication, and consistency are important when caring for children, and I always try to bring those qualities into my work. I’m currently looking for additional occasional babysitting opportunities, especially during evenings and weekends. Whether you need someone for a date night, weekend outing, or just an extra helping hand, I’d be more than happy to help! I look forward to connecting with new families and hopefully meeting your little ones soon! 😊

"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!"
