I am currently working in a TK classroom at an elementary school in Santa Clara. I also go to school full time. I would like to pick up some occasional babysitting hours in the evenings and on weekends. I have always enjoyed working with children and their families. I have past experience with all ages, infant through school age. My job titles included babysitter, teacher' s aide, teacher and center director. I began babysitting for family friends in high school and later moved on to child care center based positions. I did take a break to be at home with my daughter and was able to take some ECE classes as well. I have experience as the primary caregiver at a nursery center for ages 6 months to 2 years. I was also the director of a Child Development Center as well as a before and after school teacher. I have also cared for young children in my home which included overnight accommodations as needed by the families. I really enjoy a play based atmosphere.
“Rachel came early upon last minute request and did dishes after the kids went to bed. She was very helpful and great at putting the kids to bed.”
Hello! My name is Samantha. I am a caring, responsible, and patient nanny with over 5 years of childcare experience. As a mother myself, I understand how important it is for parents to feel that their children are safe, happy, and well cared for. I am a Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) and CPR certified, which allows me to provide an extra level of safety and attention when caring for children. My background in healthcare has helped me develop strong skills in responsibility, observation, and providing compassionate care. I enjoy creating a positive and nurturing environment where children can feel comfortable, learn, and have fun. I love engaging kids in activities such as reading, creative play, outdoor walks, and helping them build healthy routines. Families describe me as trustworthy, attentive, and warm. My goal is always to support children's growth and well-being while giving parents peace of mind. I would be happy to help care for your little ones!

Hi! I’m currently a nanny and have been caring for kids for about 8 years. I also take on little babysitting gigs on the side. I’m a very caring and responsible person who loves working with children. I’m patient and attentive and always make sure the kids feel safe and comfortable. I genuinely enjoy what I do and love being someone families can trust with their little ones! 😊 I'd love the opportunity to bring my energy and experience to your family!

“Abigail was amazing ! It was my first time getting a sitter but she was right on time, confident, and calm. She messaged me throught the day to keep me up to date on what fun activities they were doing which really put me at ease. I returned back to a tidy home and my little girl sound asleep.”
