Hi! I'm Ainsley :) I am a current fourth-year student at San José State University majoring in Mathematics (prep for teaching) with a minor in Child and Adolescent Development. I have over 3+ years of experience working with children in TK–6th grade and have a strong passion for teaching, caregiving, and supporting children’s development. I am responsible, patient, and dependable, and I strive to create a safe, positive, and engaging environment for every child. I also enjoy helping with daily routines, homework support, and learning activities, and I bring strong communication skills, organization, and a caring attitude to every family I work with.
My name is Fernando and I am a current after school teacher and college student. I provide child care, pet sitting, and household services. Having raised and taken care of my siblings and cousins has helped me gain experience and knowledge on how to care for younger children. The raising of children and helping families through dependable and quality childcare have been my career highlights over the last six years. Working as a helper with kindergartners in an after-school program has taught me how to be patient, cool-headed, and creative when interacting with kids. I am always eager to adjust to your preference in communication to update you about your child's progress during the day. I drive and absolutely adore animals, so there is no problem having them along with us as part of the fun and excitement.
Hi! My name is Mirella, and I am a caring, responsible, and dependable caregiver with experience caring for children and pets. I am CPR and First Aid certified, fully vaccinated, have a clean driving record, and speak both English and Portuguese. I enjoy creating a safe, fun, and nurturing environment where children feel supported and parents feel confident. I can assist with daily routines, meal preparation, light housekeeping, homework, transportation, and engaging activities. I also love animals and have experience providing attentive and loving pet care. I am patient, organized, reliable, and committed to treating every family with kindness, respect, and professionalism. My goal is to provide exceptional care and give families peace of mind knowing their loved ones are in safe and capable hands. I have a flexible schedule and am available for weekdays, evenings, weekends, and occasional last-minute care. Although I’m new to this platform, but I have strong references from families I’ve worked with and would be happy to provide them if needed.
I am a 21-year-old Brazilian nanny with around seven years of experience caring for children, especially infants from 0 to 11 months. I have always been passionate about childcare—ever since my first contact with a baby, even when I was still a child myself, I naturally developed a strong caregiver instinct. I am CPR and First Aid certified, I drive, and I can speak both Portuguese and English. I truly believe caring for children is a mutual exchange: while I help shape their early development with love, patience, and responsibility, they also teach me and help me grow as a person. I genuinely enjoy providing safe, attentive, and loving care to these little human beings.

"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!"
