Hi Folks! My name is Diamond and I am a bay area native. Although I currently work in the legal field, my passion and love for caring for children tend to take over my evenings and weekends. I have over fifteen years of experience with children as I transitioned from a young sitter, to daycare employee, to personal family nanny for multiple families while in college. I am well versed with children ranging from newborn to teenagers. I currently work/serve as a Special Court Advocate (CASA) for abused and neglected foster youths in the San Francisco Bay Area since 2019. Many of the children that I've cared for have become like family, I believe in treating others how I would want to be treated or how I would want my own children to be treated. I take into account and note all guidelines that parents would like followed whether it be electronic use time or food restrictions due to diet or allergies. I pride myself on being an individual that parents can not only trust but want around their children in their absence.
Hi! I'm Monica — a bilingual caregiver, former preschool and elementary school teacher with over 10 years of experience working with young children. I have a degree in Human Development with a concentration in Child Development through CSU East Bay University and I’m certified in CPR and First Aid. I also have a clear background and driving record. My passion lies in supporting the early years of development, especially for children ages 0–6. I’ve spent years in the classroom nurturing young minds, and I now bring that same structure, creativity, and care into the home. I offer in-home babysitting, homework help, and healthy meal prep — always creating a safe, engaging, and enriching environment for each child. I'm fluent in both Spanish and English, and I love incorporating language development and learning through play into everyday routines. If you're looking for someone dependable, nurturing, and experienced, I’d love the opportunity to support your family!
“I had the pleasure of working with Ms. Monica for 2 years, where we collaborated in the field of early childhood education. During this time, she demonstrated herself to be a dedicated, responsible professional with a strong commitment to the holistic development of young children. Ms. Monica stood out for her ability to create a safe, inclusive, and engaging learning environment, thoughtfully adapting activities to meet the individual needs of each child. Her pedagogical approach, combined with patience, empathy, and creativity, contributed significantly to the social, emotional, and cognitive development of her students. Her strengths include age-appropriate lesson planning, positive classroom management, effective communication with families, and strong collaboration with fellow educators. In addition to her professional skills, Ms. Monica is a reliable, well-organized individual with a consistently positive attitude—essential qualities for working in early childhood education. I highly recommend Ms. Monica for any role within the field of child development, particularly as she begins her new professional journey of opening her own child care program.”

I am super diligent and hardworking and most of all, focused. Hope to talk to you soon!

“Simone is excellent. Ive known her for approximately 8 years now and trust her completely. Ive watched her grow from an UCLA undergrad where we met to becoming a professional after earning her masters in Geology from San Jose State. Throughout the years of our friendship Simone has proven consistently that she is a hardworking, honest and trustworthy person in all areas of her life. Ive trusted her to care for my kids ranging from 3 years old to now 11 years old. Simone is an excellent cook. She is also fun, playful and adventurous. She taught us how to camp, ride motor bikes, Native American culture, history and always made us feel like part of her family and ours hers. She is knowledgeable, resourceful, and kind. I highly recommend Simone for all your caregiving needs.”

"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!"
