Hello! I am Computer Scientist from Sweden, who have raised two boys (now in college) together with my husband. We live in San Joe. I am available to help out families as I know very well how hard it can be to arrange for child care with our busy schedules! I love working with children of all ages. One of my goals is to get my teaching credentials in California so that I can contribute to our public schools in the area.

Booked by 2 families in Gilroy, CA

Hi my name is Mary, in my mid 30s, behavior specialist in dogs and children. I have a very bubbly, go lucky personality. I have been an auntie since I was 15 years old, raising my nieces and nephews since they were infants. I am comfortable with feeding, playing, changing and putting a baby to sleep. I am comfortable with household errands, picking up/ dropping off for school, and pet care needs. You'll wonder why I want to be a nanny and why my profile is bland compared to most. My recent job I was working as a personal aide for a young adult with Autism and realized how much my presence gave my client reassurance and peace of mind. On top of that her daughter felt comfortable with me by her side so she can be independent. If the government had more funding she wouldn't have lost her grant and I wouldn't have lost my job and find another family to help. I did more than just drove her to her doctor appointments and helped make her meals, I was her protector, her voice, when she was crying I would comfort and talk her through it. When she could not talk or voice her feelings, I was her projector, I defended her and protected her peace of mind. I am an open book so please ask me anything, I just hope someone will give me a chance to make their life easier. I have client references to verify my hard work and continuous drive. I am more than just a nanny, I am someone they can trust more than family.

“Mary was incredible for our first parents' night out and took great care for our 2.5 year old son. Mary cooked a dinner and gave us status updates with photos (which was totally unexpected, but definitely appreciated). We really appreciate her approach with a toddler that has opinions :) and her patience was so valuable. Will definitely book again and again.”

Booked by 4 families in Gilroy, CA

Hi ! I'm Rina, and I provide childcare for children ages 1–13, as well as pet care services. Caring for children and animals has always been a natural part of my life. I come from a big family, so I've grown up surrounded by both ☺️ My childcare journey began at 10 years old when I learned how to care for my nephew, including changing diapers. By the age of 15, I was babysitting regularly, and I've been passionate about working with children ever since. Even at family gatherings, you'll usually find me spending time with the kids! Over the years, I've gained experience caring for children of different ages and personalities. I've also worked as a preschool teacher at the YMCA and completed child development coursework, which has strengthened my understanding of early childhood development. I enjoy creating engaging activities, supporting learning, and helping children build confidence, independence, and cognitive skills in a safe and nurturing environment. Whether you need a dependable nanny, babysitter, or someone to care for your furry family members, I'd love the opportunity to support your family. I look forward to meeting you and creating a positive, fun, and caring experience for your little ones!

“Rina was great! She had so much energy that our son was smiling and giggling the whole time!”

Booked by 81 families in Gilroy, CA

Hi! My name is Trisha, and I've been working with children for over 20 years. During that time, I've cared for more than 20 families and have many wonderful references available upon request. I also served as the Children's Ministry Director at my former church for several years. I'm currently working as a Household Manager/Nanny. i am currently only looking for occasional date night jobs on Friday or Saturday evening. I moved to San Jose a little over a year ago and would love to find a position closer to home, though I'm happy to travel for the right family. A little about me—I’m 47 years old and helped raise my stepdaughter from the age of 4. She is now 29. I'm creative and love painting, shopping, and spending time outdoors. I'm a non-smoker, a Christian, and I genuinely love working with children. I enjoy helping families however I can and pride myself on being dependable, easygoing, and fun! I’m always on time and love bringing games, crafts, and creative activities for the kids. I also enjoy taking children to the park, library, and other fun outings when appropriate. I would love to learn more about your family, your child, and your daily routine to see if we'd be a great fit. My rate is $35–$40 per hour for one or two children. I have my own reliable vehicle and am happy to provide transportation to and from school or extracurricular activities. If you think we might be a good match, I'd love to hear from you! Finding the right nanny can be challenging, and I truly hope you find the perfect fit for your family. I look forward to hearing from you. Have a wonderful rest of your week! Trisha
