Hello parents, I'm Carol and I'm 28 years old. I've been a nanny over 3 years here in the Bay Area with mostly experience with infants and toddlers. Depending on the kid's age I enjoy doing different activities indoors like reading books, doing arts and crafts, painting, etc and outdoors (always following the COVID guidelines). Exploring nature help kids to be away from electronics and let them discover new skills in them selves. I see myself as a punctual, patient, reliable and easygoing person, who is a good listener and follows parent's guidelines.
“We love having Carol watch our son (toddler). When we tell him in the morning that Carol is coming that evening he asks us through the day if she's here yet... and when we say no, he goes "Aww, man" (and squeals in delight when she arrives!). Carol is EXTREMELY attentive to Tristan, very sweet and caring with him. She gets down on his level, asks him questions about what he wants to do and makes sure he has a fun time. She does a "yes, and" when playing with him, and plays how he wants to play (of course keeping him safe). He loves it! And keeps the TV off, which is great. And her positive, infectious energy has us all smiling and laughing. As parents, we appreciate that she is responsible, communicates well, punctual, gets him fed, gets him to bed on time, and even does bath time when needed! We really look forward to being able to go out for dinner while having complete peace of mind. In short, we would highly recommend Carol to any friends of ours who are looking for a babysitter!”

“Came up with some adorable activities to do with my kid”
Hello, I'm Jessica, a 34-year-old Brazilian currently studying Respiratory Care. My passion for caring for children began at the age of 16, looking after my cousins. I have extensive experience with infants and toddlers, although I adore children of all ages! On sunny days, I enjoy trips to the park or leisurely walks, and on rainy days, we can engage in creative activities like coloring, painting, or fort building. Outside of childcare, I relish hiking, exploring new destinations, and cherishing moments with friends. I also come with excellent references attesting to my dedication and competence in childcare.
Hi! Im currently searching for a morning position to fill my schedule. in the afternoons I provide care for a six year long term family.

After working as a nanny for four years during and after my undergrad at UCSD, I moved back home to the Bay Area and began employment at a specialized school for children on the with profound autism. My Human Development degree gave me a strong foundation in child development theories, while my work experience has given me a wealth of behavioral management strategies. Both allow me to create the most supportive and caring environment I can for the children I have the pleasure to care for. I am registered with Trustline and CPR/First Aid certified.
“Kimiro is dependable and hardworking, and was an asset to our household. She prepared lunches, did the dishes, went grocery shopping, and played with our two children (ages three and five). She also helped with additional household chores like laundry, folding, and putting away toys. We highly recommend Kimiro!”

"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!"
