“Anabel is the best nanny that my husband and I could ask for. She’s been with us for over two years now. She’s taken care of our daughter since she was three months old and now that she’s over two years old, she’s going to start going to school to be around other kids more. We appreciate Anabel’s work ethics. As first time parents, we needed a nanny with lots of experience and Anabel has that! She has great energy and attitude and it’s very easy and pleasant to have her around. We trust her with our daughter more than anyone else. I highly recommend Anabel.”

Hello, I'm Mallu! I have +9 years of childcare experience, having cared for kids aged 2 months to 14 years. My expertise covers childcare, household management, and pet care. Over the past years, I've worked as a full-time caregiver for several families in the Bay area. Additionally, I've provided babysitting services to many families with children of different ages. During my educational journey, I also took child development classes, which added an extra layer of understanding to my practical experience. I'm genuinely enthusiastic about helping children grow, achieve milestones, and develop important skills. Whether it's organizing outdoor activities or engaging in indoor play, I take joy in providing engaging experiences for children of all ages. Beyond childcare, I like cooking, staying active through exercise, and immersing myself in good reads. If you're seeking an extra hand to make things easier, please don't hesitate to get in touch. Thank you for considering me. Mallu

Booked by 4 families in Daly City, CA

Hi, I’m Sofi! I’m an Argentinian Physical Education teacher who graduated in December 2023, with strong experience caring for children of different ages. I currently work as a nanny for two wonderful kids, ages 4 and 6, and I also have experience as an au pair in the U.S., providing full-time childcare. Working with children is something that I truly enjoy. I love creating a fun, safe, and engaging environment where they can learn, grow, and feel confident. My background in physical education allows me to incorporate active play, sports, and movement, while I also enjoy creative activities and cooking with them. I’m responsible, energetic, patient, and caring, and I always aim to build a trusting relationship with both children and parents.

"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!"
