$40 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 3 families in Stanford, CA

I am a very experienced care provider, teacher, nanny and traveling nanny, driver, meal preparer. My profession skills became embedded at a young age and continued through university and beyond. I am very caring, thoughtful, diligent and knowledgeable. I am seeking part time or occasional for some weekend, mornings, evening or over night care where I can go to the home of the family who is hiring me or I can host.

“Jess was great - she bonded really quickly with my six year old daughter and even won over my 9 year old son, which isn't easy. She was responsive and communicative and our kids had a great experience with her. We'll definitely try to use her again in the future. Thanks Jess!”
