Dear Parents, My name is Selena (Yang). I have over 8 years of childcare experience, with more than 8,000 hours working with infants as well as children of different ages up to teenagers. I am fluent in English and Mandarin. I volunteered for half a year in an orphanage in china in 2016, taking care of six disabled infants daily, and also worked as a preschool summer teacher. I once cared for a newborn boy with surgery from 9 days old until he was 5 months, which deepened my love for children and appreciation for life. I am CPR certified for infants and children, responsible, patient, and always on time. I believe babysitting is not only about care, but also about giving love and helping kids grow. I am also comfortable with pets (I’ve raised dogs for more than 10 years) and can assist with light housework if needed. I look forward to meeting you and your family. Thank you for your time.
Hello! I'm a 31 years old educator with a child development degree. I have 10+ years of experience from 3mo to 13yo kids. I'm bilingual (English and Brazilian Portuguese speaker), CPR and First Aid certified. I'd describe myself as patient, reliable, dedicated and hardworking. When it comes to working with children, I like to create a safe, inclusive and engaging learning environment. I'm happy to provide references.
Hi - my name is Graciela and I’m currently a senior at UC Berkeley pursuing a microbial biology degree🐻. I enjoy working out, health, painting/drawing, hiking, soccer, and anything to do with arts&crafts (legos, building stuff etc) !! I am offering child care and housing services. I love being a babysitter and have been watching toddlers and kids since I was 15 years old. My responsibilities have included tutoring during summers, arts&crafts and personal care. I have experience working as a certified caregiver for seniors and willing to offer senior care services, if interested. I can cook, clean, and run errands. I am also happy to work with families with dogs. I also speak Spanish. Feel free to message me anytime! ☀️
“She was great with my toddler and preschooler!they loved her ”
I have been working with children for 15 years and I still love it. I worked at a daycare center as an infant toddler teacher for five years. I taught swim lessons to all ages. I am currently a nanny for over 5 years. I love to be outside taking walks, or at a park. I like to do art activities, make up scavenger hunts, read books, play board/card games, legos, and just follow what the child is into. Usually just make up games. A babysitter should be a fun time for the child. I am happy to do easy meals for the kids and some cleaning.
Hi! My name is Trisha, and I've been working with children for over 20 years. During that time, I've cared for more than 20 families and have many wonderful references available upon request. I also served as the Children's Ministry Director at my former church for several years. I'm currently working as a Household Manager/Nanny. i am currently only looking for occasional date night jobs on Friday or Saturday evening. I moved to San Jose a little over a year ago and would love to find a position closer to home, though I'm happy to travel for the right family. A little about me—I’m 47 years old and helped raise my stepdaughter from the age of 4. She is now 29. I'm creative and love painting, shopping, and spending time outdoors. I'm a non-smoker, a Christian, and I genuinely love working with children. I enjoy helping families however I can and pride myself on being dependable, easygoing, and fun! I’m always on time and love bringing games, crafts, and creative activities for the kids. I also enjoy taking children to the park, library, and other fun outings when appropriate. I would love to learn more about your family, your child, and your daily routine to see if we'd be a great fit. My rate is $35–$40 per hour for one or two children. I have my own reliable vehicle and am happy to provide transportation to and from school or extracurricular activities. If you think we might be a good match, I'd love to hear from you! Finding the right nanny can be challenging, and I truly hope you find the perfect fit for your family. I look forward to hearing from you. Have a wonderful rest of your week! Trisha
