Hi - my name is Graciela and I’m currently a senior at UC Berkeley pursuing a microbial biology degree🐻. I enjoy working out, health, painting/drawing, hiking, soccer, and anything to do with arts&crafts (legos, building stuff etc) !! I am offering child care and housing services. I love being a babysitter and have been watching toddlers and kids since I was 15 years old. My responsibilities have included tutoring during summers, arts&crafts and personal care. I have experience working as a certified caregiver for seniors and willing to offer senior care services, if interested. I can cook, clean, and run errands. I am also happy to work with families with dogs. I also speak Spanish. Feel free to message me anytime! ☀️

Booked by 34 families in Milpitas, CA

I recently graduated San Jose State University in 2025 💙 I'm originally from Southern California! I have a variety of experience for ages 2 months to 12 years. I was a nanny for 2 girls for 3 years throughout college, and do many occasional jobs with multiple families. My style of childcare is hands on, such as doing arts and crafts, playing games, going to the playground. As well as helping out with homework, reading books and more. I enjoy getting to know the children personally and prefer no screen time. Throughout high school, I've gained experience working with children mainly through local church organizations. I'm a former overnight camp counselor for kids. I also grew up with two younger siblings which I took care of almost every day. I love working with kids of all ages, especially younger ones. I have a husky at home, so I am very comfortable with pets! I am fully vaccinated with a booster shot as well. I look forward to meeting you!

"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!"
