Booked by 2 families in San Jose, CA

I have experiences working for several families from different backgrounds. Which allows me to communicate and adjust easily with their culture and values in terms of giving cares to the kids. From newborns to pre-teens, I have given the best care and excellent performance. I have a degree and experience as a tutor, so I am able to help with the homework, art and craft, science experiment, story telling and reading, and doing activities outside the house such as swimming, going to the park, biking, tennis, soccer, basketball, and any other activities that will help your kids growth! I can help with meal preparation for babies, toddlers, and teens. As well as helping with light chores. Please contact me if you have any questions about my qualifications. Will be happy to meet you in person! Thank you 😊

Hi, I’m Terri I have 7+ years experience working with various ages of children and babies and I’m a Silicon Valley native. I’ve grown up helping out with babies to teenagers, I’m the oldest of six and I love animals of all kinds and I don’t mind them in the home.

ā€œShe is sweet, punctual, sent me a photo and update while I was away, and did everything to make Tay as comfortable with the transition as possible! He was happy and calm when I returned :)ā€

Booked by 5 families in San Jose, CA

I’ve over 8 years of experience caring for kids from 6 months to 10 years old, both as a nanny and former Au Pair. I’m CPR certified and experienced with sleep routines, baby-led weaning, potty training, and age-appropriate developmental activities. I currently work full-time (Monday–Friday) with a wonderful family and have been with them for the past 22 months, the little boy is currently two and half years and I have been with him since he was seven months old. I’m now looking for part-time or occasional weekend opportunities to support other families who may need an extra set of hands. I love creating a safe, loving, and fun environment where kids feel comfortable being themselves. Whether it’s crafts, music, dancing, reading, or outdoor play, I enjoy helping kids learn, explore, and grow. I also focus on emotional support, helping little ones understand and express their feelings in a healthy way. I’m happy to assist with children-related tasks like tidying play areas, organizing clothes, preparing meals, and driving to activities or fun outings. I’ve a valid driver’s license and feel very comfortable around pets (I’ve a dog and two kittins). I would love to be that extra helping hand for your family — someone you can trust, rely on, and feel at ease with while your little ones are in caring hands.

ā€œLaura was on time and was great with my 9mo old son! Followed directions and everything went smoothly! Will definitely have her back to help with all 3 of my kids! ā€

Rhonda $30 per hour for 1 child

Hi, I’m Rhonda! If you’re looking for someone who truly loves being around kids—you’ve found her 😊 I’m a trusted, experienced caregiver with a fingerprint clearance and a clean driving record. I’m also the owner of Sensory Celebrations, a local kids entertainment company that creates themed activity tables for birthdays, school events, and community festivals. There’s a good chance your little ones may have already played at my tables at Campbell Park, Oktoberfest, Halloween events, or the Bunnies & Bonnets Parade event! I bring that same playful, engaging energy into every babysitting experience. I don’t just ā€œwatchā€ kids—I connect with them, play with them, and create fun, hands-on moments that keep them happy and engaged (and give parents peace of mind). I’m also a proud grandma to three AMAZING grandchildren (two borns in 2025 and one in 2023), and I care for them often. Being part of their lives is one of my greatest joys. In addition, I serve in the nursery and toddler classrooms at my church, so I’m very comfortable with infants, toddlers, and young children of all personalities. What you can expect when I’m with your children: • Warm, attentive, and patient care • Engaging play (not screens unless you prefer it) • Safe, reliable, and responsible supervision • A natural ability to connect with kids of all ages Whether you need a few hours to run errands, a date night, or overnight care, I would love to support your family. Looking forward to meeting you and your little ones! šŸ’› — Rhonda
