Hello! My name is Yingzhou.I am a responsible, patient, and caring nanny with over 10 years of experience taking care of children of different ages, from infants to school-aged kids. I enjoy creating a safe, loving, and fun environment where children can learn and grow. I can help with daily routines such as feeding, bathing, and bedtime, as well as preparing healthy meals, organizing activities and supporting school drop-offs, pick-ups, and extracurricular activities. I believe in positive communication, encouraging creativity, and giving children the attention and care they need. With more than a decade of childcare experience, I understand the importance of supporting parents, being reliable, and keeping an open line of communication. My goal is to make life easier for the family while ensuring the children are happy, healthy, and well cared for. I would love the opportunity to bring my energy, responsibility, and warmth to your family.

“As a FTM, I was so anxious about finding the right care for our newborn. But Ying is not just a nanny, she embodies the definition of “mom”. My only regret is not hiring her sooner but we waited until our daughter was around 3 months and will continue to use her into the foreseeable future (Currently she is now 5.5 months). Sweet, kind, gentle and so much compassion. She’s helpful with the baby, around the house and her knowledge in child care is impressive. She speaks canto, mandarin and her English is great. ”

Hi there, I am a Bay Area native with over 10 years of experience in child care. I have a background in Creative Arts and Hospitality. I am bi-lingual (Japanese/English). I have been a proud nanny to many children here in the Bay Area, and it still is such a privilege to watch these kids grow and make their way in the world. I started babysitting the neighbors kids when I was young and eventually started teaching English in Japan after high school. I’ve helped raise my 16 year old brother since birth and feel comfortable with all ages. I am willing to do house-work, meal preparation and planning, animal care and house sitting. I have experience with Grade/Montessori school activities and hope to provide an environment where the kids feel comfortable to be themselves, learn, create, and have fun! In my free time, I am learning about business administration and working on starting my first Japanese comfort food business! I look forward to meeting you and the family!
