Hi! My name is Patricia. I am a dedicated and experienced nanny with 8 years of full-time childcare experience. I have cared for children of all ages, from infants to pre-teens, and I truly enjoy supporting their growth and development in a safe and nurturing environment. I have extensive experience with infants, including bottle feeding, nap routines, diaper changes, and maintaining a consistent schedule. I am also comfortable managing multiple children, helping with homework, and creating engaging, age-appropriate activities. I am reliable, patient, and attentive, and I value building strong, trusting relationships with both children and parents. I have worked long-term with families, which has allowed me to provide stability and continuity of care. I am based in Burlingame and have access to a car, making me flexible and dependable for commuting. I am currently looking for occasional opportunities, especially on weekends.
“Patricia was easy to coordinate with, arrived on time and was great with our son. Would definitely recommend.”
Hi, I’m Lisa! I have over six years of experience caring for children of all ages, from infants to teens. I’ve worked as a preschool teacher, a special education aide, and a babysitter for many families. My experience includes preparing meals, driving to appointments and extracurriculars, helping with homework, bedtime routines, and providing support with daily needs like feeding, bathing, and toileting. I value compassion, patience, and play in every interaction. I love pretend play, building, dolls, reading stories, arts and crafts, and exploring nature with kids. I’m not afraid to get silly and believe children thrive when they feel safe, seen, and joyful. I’m also experienced with pet care! I currently help care for two cats and an elderly dog by giving medication, going for walks, and providing lots of affection. I grew up with both large and small dogs, so I’m comfortable with pets of all sizes. Families can count on me to be dependable, nurturing, and fun while keeping your little ones safe and happy.
Hi! I’m Kailiti and I am a preschool teacher! I’m also a recent grad of Stanford University, where I studied linguistics and education. I’m offering childcare and household services. Working with children brings me a lot or joy and I’ve been in childcare and education jobs for the past eight years, including as a science teacher in schools, a summer camp counselor, and of course as a babysitter! I am comfortable working with children ages 2mo-12yrs and I also have experience working with children with high support needs, including children with autism and neurodevelopmental disabilities. I love to facilitate imaginary play and outdoor activities as well as arts and crafts, and I am also happy to help with homework! I also cook, clean, do laundry, and can run errands. If needed, I can drive for dropoffs/pickups. I am also a nationally registered Emergency Medical Technician!

"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!"
