Hi- my name is Adriana. I am a biology graduate at SFSU and I am pursuing a career in Nursing. I have been nannying/sitting for over 8 years now and I have loved it ever since! I have cared for children from infant to teenage years and have gained tons of experience not only from working with children around my neighborhood but also from caring for my cousins and now nephews and niece! I love being able to play and be a kid again and learning new things from children as well. I love walks to the park, playing hide and go seek and even tag! I also like visits to the library and museum. I do ask for a 3 hr minimum payment for cancellations that are less than 24hrs, thank you!
I’m 26 years old and I’ve been working with children since I was 15 in my home country, and for 2.5 years here in the Bay Area. I always loved being around kids and I have experience with all ages, from infants to teenagers. I can cook, clean and I’m a strong driver. I’m also caring, affectionate, energetic, fast learner, really responsible, trustworthy, pet friendly, CPR and first aid certified. I currently work part time for a family, so I’m open to part-time positions (especially in the mornings). Besides my experience with kids, I also have a college degree, and experience with managing, so I’d be happy to help as a personal assistant/organizer or mother’s helper as well. Please let me know if you have any questions, I’ll be happy to answer and to help your family.

“My family and daughter LOVED Yenny! She was our nanny for 3 months, from when my daughter was 6 to 9 months, while I transitioned back from mat leave and until we moved out of state. She was an incredible help to my family, taking great care of my daughter especially as a first time mom. She is beyond qualified and has great experience in taking care of children of all ages. Yenny was so warm, patient, caring, gentle and natural with our daughter. My daughter really grew to love her in the time we were together. They developed a great routine together - they would go on walks in the neighborhood, have picnics at the park, play in the backyard or the family room, read books together, play music together, and Yenny would talk to her throughout the day which is great for development. Yenny's knowledge of child development was always so helpful to hear and at the same time she was always respectful of what my husband and I wanted. We can't thank her enough for our time together!!”
Hello! My name is Kayla. I am 27 years old and am studying to become a kindergarten teacher and have been currently been working at a Montessori preschool for the past 2 years. I love hiking, playing games, cooking, and doing any sorts of crafts. Previous jobs have included being a nanny for triplets plus one. The children's ages were 9 (triplets) and 7. Some of the activities included cleaning up, doing laundry, playing with the children, driving them to and from camp or to the park as well as feeding them three times a day and putting them to bed. I also was a recurring babysitter for 2 boys aged 10 and 8, activities in that job included playing video games/board games, playing baseball or basketball, and feeding them. In addition, I also have experience working at a day care. There I worked with children ranging in ages from infants to 12 years of age. The job had entailed cleaning, feeding, and changing the children and playing with them. I really enjoy working with children and getting on their level. I like to hear the interesting things they say and their unique perspectives. I look forward to working with your family!
“Kayla is great! Our toddler loves her and we appreciate the care that she gives him. Highly recommend 🤗”
