I’m a caregiver and teacher who brings the vibe of a camp counselor and friend. I’m the eldest daughter of an immigrant family and have been working with children since the age of 7. I am comfortable bringing out my own inner child and creating a beautiful mix of learning and play. This year, I put my teaching skills to the test in the classroom and explored subbing for grades K-5. When I care for your children, I will come with books and games suited for their age level. All other details can be personalized when we meet. Let’s have an amazing day together.
Hello, Families! My name is Alice and I am an experienced Nanny and House Helper located in San Jose, who currently works for a loving family with 3 little ones! My current employers will be out on vacation, so I'm available to work with families that may be in need of a temporary extra help this summer! My skills include: 🩺 First aid and CPR trained; 🍼 Experience with newborns and infants; 🧸 Experience with toddlers and big kids; 🧹 Can do light housework and choirs; 🍳 Can cook complete and healthy meals for babies, toddlers and adults; 🗣 Fluent in English, Portuguese and able to communicate in Spanish.
Hi, my name is Maryam. I have experience running my own home daycare and am currently a full-time nanny caring for two toddlers and an infant. I truly enjoy spending time with children — helping them learn, play, and grow brings me so much joy. I’m patient, responsible, and passionate about creating a fun and nurturing environment where kids feel happy and safe.
Hello:)) My full time job is a medical assistant/ scribe for behavioral and developmental pediatrics. I love my job and I wouldn’t have it any other way ! I have experience with kids from newborns up to teens through my 3 years as a medical assistant in pediatrics. I do also have experience taking care of the kiddos through family friends. On my free time I enjoy cooking and Traveling. I do believe I have a bubbly and energetic personality :) Bonus: I do also speak fluent Spanish!
Hi! My name is Claudia and I'm a patient, warm, and dedicated nanny who truly loves working with children and supporting their growth every single day. 🌟 Originally from Colombia, I bring over 2 years of hands-on experience caring for babies from 5 months old up to toddlers. My experience includes diaper changes, tummy time, introducing solid foods, and supporting key developmental milestones such as rolling over and transitioning from bassinet to crib. I've also helped establish healthy nap and feeding routines, engaged children in age-appropriate activities, and taken them on outdoor walks — creating a calm, loving, and structured environment where little ones can truly thrive. I'm currently based in downtown San Jose and I'm available from 6:00 AM to 2:00 PM, making me a great fit for morning and early afternoon care. I'm comfortable with pets and I'm a non-smoker. Beyond childcare, I'm a driven and responsible person — I'm currently preparing for my IELTS exam as I get ready to pursue my Master's in Statistics next year. I believe my analytical mindset helps me be attentive, observant, and proactive when it comes to a child's development and routine. I'm also an active person who loves the outdoors — I've recently taken up bouldering climbing and enjoy staying active, which means I bring plenty of energy and enthusiasm to playtime! 🧗♀️ I'm genuinely looking for a long-term connection with a family, not just a short-term arrangement. Watching children grow, learn, and reach new milestones is something I'm truly passionate about, and I would love to bring that dedication and positive energy to your home every day. I'm happy to provide references from previous families upon request. I look forward to meeting you! 😊
