“My family and daughter LOVED Yenny! She was our nanny for 3 months, from when my daughter was 6 to 9 months, while I transitioned back from mat leave and until we moved out of state. She was an incredible help to my family, taking great care of my daughter especially as a first time mom. She is beyond qualified and has great experience in taking care of children of all ages. Yenny was so warm, patient, caring, gentle and natural with our daughter. My daughter really grew to love her in the time we were together. They developed a great routine together - they would go on walks in the neighborhood, have picnics at the park, play in the backyard or the family room, read books together, play music together, and Yenny would talk to her throughout the day which is great for development. Yenny's knowledge of child development was always so helpful to hear and at the same time she was always respectful of what my husband and I wanted. We can't thank her enough for our time together!!”

Hi everyone, I have been babysitting for 4 years. Some of the few things I enjoy doing with children are playing games, coloring/drawing or being active and playing outdoors!

Hello! My name is Jenna and I recently graduated from CSU East Bay. I am offering childcare and pet care services. Over the years I have babysat numerous times for neighbors or family friends from children ages 1-10. Previously I worked at a petting zoo and managed groups of children from ages 3-14. I can also help with homework, especially in the science area as I have a bachelors in biology. In my free time I enjoy reading, drawing, painting, and crocheting. I have around 7 years of experience working with various types of farm animals and I am comfortable taking care of any animal! Upon request I’d be happy to give references.

I have professional experience caring for babies and young children, with 5+ years of childcare experience, including nannying and family support. I’m comfortable with daily routines, meals, play, naps, school drop-offs and pickups, and creating a safe, warm, and engaging environment for children. I also have experience helping families with light housekeeping and home organization, as well as pet care. I’m reliable, caring, organized, and attentive to the needs of both children and the household. Thank you, Bruna

“Very detail oriented and caring. Will definitely work together again.”

Booked by 6 families in Dublin, CA

My name is Fernanda, and I am from Colombia. I am university trained and licensed as a teacher in Colombia where I taught children ages 4 years to 14 years old. I am fluent in English and Spanish and for the past 2 years have been employed as a nanny caring for children ages 6 months to 3 years old. I am a very patient, responsible, and dependable person who is about promoting the well-being and overall development of children.

“Maria (she goes by Fernanda) was great with my two year old. She got here right as I was in the middle of my daughter having just had an accident. Fernanda took over and handled it without complaint and helped change her. My toddler warmed up to her immediately and Fernanda took great care of her. Would definitely have her back!”

"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!"
