Experienced NICU nurse of 6 years and postpartum doula, DONA trained, providing expert newborn care and in-home support for families. Skilled in helping with feeding, general newborn care and calming techniques, including working with multiples. I offer a blend of professional care and light household help to create a calm, supported environment for both baby and parents. I also assist with older children as well, but my speciality is newborn care.
I have a Bachelor's degree in Kinesiology with a concentration in exercise and movement science and I have about 11 years of recruiting experience in biotech. I recently got laid off from work and I am looking to do something meaningful in the meantime as I transition to my next role. I enjoy working with children- I have previously coached kids on various sports and did a summer camp at SFSU.
I am a highly experienced caregiver and educator offering a premium, enrichment-focused childcare experience. With a doctorate in music and over 20 years of service as a youth teacher in my church community, I bring a unique blend of academic depth, creativity, and nurturing care to each family I work with. As a mother of two (ages 11 and 16), I understand firsthand the importance of consistency, structure, and emotional attunement. I create an environment where children are not only well cared for, but also intellectually and creatively engaged through music, guided learning, and thoughtful interaction. My weekday afternoons are dedicated to my work as a piano instructor and to caring for my own children; I am now intentionally seeking to support younger families during morning/early afternoon hours, where I can offer high-quality care. I approach every child with the same level of love, attentiveness, and responsibility that I give my own, and I value building strong, trusting relationships with both children and parents.
I am a 2nd grade teacher with an Early Childhood Education background. I have been teaching for 6 years. Prior to this I was a full time nanny or live in nanny from 19-26. I have cared for a variety of children from infants to teenagers. My primary care has been infants through age 8. I have cared for high special needs kids as well such as Down syndrome, autism, and childhood cancer. I also am a mom to a level 1 autistic child who’s 7. I am seeking part time work and would not be bringing my own child. I work full time as a teacher during the school year and will be off all summer seeking occasional babysitting or tutoring if interested.
Hello! My name is Jenna and I have been working with children for over 15 years. Most of my experience has been with infants and toddlers, but I enjoy working with kids of all ages. I also have experience working with special needs, and my background in Nursing has aided me in nannying for children with Cerebral Palsy, Epilepsy, and Autism. When I am babysitting, I enjoy taking kids to a local park, doing crafts, or cooking up something tasty! In my free time, I enjoy hiking and camping.
“Jenna is an amazing caregiver. My son had so much fun with her and we will definitely book her again! She did a lot of fun activities with him and when I showed up he was even wearing one of the costumes he loves. Highly recommend ”

"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!"
