Booked by 5 families in Daly City, CA

Hello, my name is Ketlyn. I am 23 years old, originally from Brazil, and I speak three languages fluently: English, Spanish, and Portuguese. I have over 8 years of experience working as a nanny. I started very young, caring for newborn twins, and since then I have developed a true passion for childcare. Over the years, I have worked with children of different ages, always providing a safe, loving, and structured environment. My experience includes caring for infants and young children, preparing bottles and meals, introducing solid foods, diaper changes, bathing when necessary, nap routines, engaging in age-appropriate activities, and maintaining a clean and organized environment related to the child. I am attentive, responsible, patient, and always focused on the child’s safety, development, and well-being. I would be happy to share references and provide more information if needed. Thank you for your time and consideration. Ketlyn

Hello - My name is Thalia, a preschool teacher (graduate) with extensive experience in ages between 1-15. In Brazil, I worked as a preschool teacher and I also worked as a private tutor for children from bilingual schools. Originally from Brazil, I’m 27 years old and I have been working as a nanny here in San Francisco for +1.5 years and I love what I do! Ps: I have over 10 years of experience working with children in my home country as a nanny and a teacher. I’m kind, flexible, easygoing and very patient and people usually describe me as a calm and very proactive person. In my routine as a nanny I can cook, drive and help with everything related to the children. I also love going for walks, playgrounds and of course, teaching the little ones and helping them in their daily development. I don’t have any allergies and I love animals! I’m pretty much open to work with families that have pets! I speak both English and Portuguese! My English level is advanced and my native language is Portuguese! Want me to teach Portuguese to your kids? Let me know! CPR/FIRST AID CERTIFIED ✅ Any questions are welcome!

"Every child you encounter is a divine appointment." —Wess Stafford Hi, I’m Tiffany! An optimistic, fun, and patient caregiver with a passion for working with children of all ages. I believe in fostering creativity, learning through play, and creating a nurturing environment filled with laughter and positivity. While we try to teach children about life, children teach us what life is all about. Why Choose Me? ✔Adult & Pediatric First Aid/CPR/AED certified ✔ Experienced & Trustworthy: As the eldest of three, caregiving has been second nature to me. With a 9-year age gap between my younger brother and me, I’ve helped guide him from toddlerhood through his teens—assisting with schoolwork, projects, activities, and transportation. My baby sister, now 3, keeps me on my toes, and I cherish every moment of it! ✔ Professional Childcare Background: Beyond babysitting for family and clients (ages 1.5+), I’ve worked as an after-school teacher’s assistant at Sunshine Learning Center (K-2) and Best Friends Learning Center (Grades 1-6). I also served as an administrative assistant at a children's art studio, where I helped kids (5+) explore their creativity. ✔ Pet Lover & Experienced Dog Walker: With over 12 years as a dedicated dog owner, I understand that pets are part of the family too! I also have hands-on experience dog-walking for clients, ensuring their furry companions receive the care, attention, and exercise they need. Education & Career: I studied at Arizona State University and currently work as a Realtor. While my professional path is in real estate, my love for working with children has remained a constant throughout my life. If you're looking for a reliable, engaging, and caring nanny who will treat your child like family, I’d love to connect! Let’s create wonderful memories together.

“We had a great experience with Tiffany. She was on time and very engaged. My son was shy at first, but he warmed to her quickly.”
