Hello! My name is Jeniffer. I’m currently a college student working on my BSN. Before returning to school I worked as a Medical Assistant for about 5 years where I gained experience caring for others. I enjoy caring for children, and being around kids has always come naturally to me. I understand how important it is for parents to have someone they can trust with their children and to have someone who is patient, dependable, attentive. I would love the opportunity to get to know your family and learn more about what you’re looking for in a sitter. Please feel free to reach out with any questions! 😊

Hi, I’m Nancy! I’m a Bay Area native and a full-time first-grade teacher who truly loves working with kids of all ages. With over five years of classroom experience, many years of babysitting, and a Master’s in Education, I bring patience, creativity, and a nurturing approach to every family I work with. I’m a credentialed public school teacher and have cared for infants, toddlers, and school-aged children—from feedings and nap times to homework help and fun activities. Being bilingual in Spanish and English helps me connect with families from diverse backgrounds, and I’m CPR & First Aid certified so you can feel confident your little ones are safe with me. Families describe me as dependable, warm, and easy to communicate with. Whether you need an extra set of hands during a busy week or a trustworthy sitter for a night out, I’d love to support your family and give your kids a safe, engaging, and fun experience.

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!"
