Hi! My name is Hannah! I am currently a nanny in Los Gatos. I am looking for some part time work at the moment. References can be provided. I have been around children for most of my life including potty training, feeding/preparing meals, outside fun, arts and crafts, infant care, etc. I love to take and care for them!! I am currently a student at San Jose State-studying to become a speech pathologist in pediatrics. Hoping we can chat soon!

“Hannah was wonderful. She arrived on time and was a good communicator leading up to our meeting time. She was able to immediately engage our kids and put them through their dinner + bedtime routines + put them asleep. She even made it through an unexpected power outage + stayed a bit later. Would def recommend to another family and our kids look forward to seeing her again. Thanks, Hannah!”

Hello! My name is Rowan and I currently work as a behavioral specialist in special education at a public high school. I have been babysitting since my early teens and have worked with children of all ages. I am happy to do any activities that your child is most interested in and passionate about! Whether that be crafting, outdoor adventures, putting on at-home recitals, or wherever their imagination takes them. I am willing to do all parts of your child’s routine, including cooking, bathing, cleaning, homework help, or whatever is required for your child to be happy, healthy, and safe!

I have experiences working for several families from different backgrounds. Which allows me to communicate and adjust easily with their culture and values in terms of giving cares to the kids. From newborns to pre-teens, I have given the best care and excellent performance. I have a degree and experience as a tutor, so I am able to help with the homework, art and craft, science experiment, story telling and reading, and doing activities outside the house such as swimming, going to the park, biking, tennis, soccer, basketball, and any other activities that will help your kids growth! I can help with meal preparation for babies, toddlers, and teens. As well as helping with light chores. Please contact me if you have any questions about my qualifications. Will be happy to meet you in person! Thank 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!"
