Hi, I’m Terri I have 7+ years experience working with various ages of children and babies and I’m a Silicon Valley native. I’ve grown up helping out with babies to teenagers, I’m the oldest of six and I love animals of all kinds and I don’t mind them in the home.
“She is sweet, punctual, sent me a photo and update while I was away, and did everything to make Tay as comfortable with the transition as possible! He was happy and calm when I returned :)”
I have experiences working for several families from different backgrounds. Which allows me to communicate and adjust easily with their culture and values in terms of giving cares to the kids. From newborns to pre-teens, I have given the best care and excellent performance. I have a degree and experience as a tutor, so I am able to help with the homework, art and craft, science experiment, story telling and reading, and doing activities outside the house such as swimming, going to the park, biking, tennis, soccer, basketball, and any other activities that will help your kids growth! I can help with meal preparation for babies, toddlers, and teens. As well as helping with light chores. Please contact me if you have any questions about my qualifications. Will be happy to meet you in person! Thank you 😊
“She did an amazing job and was extremely helpful!”
Entering into my senior year as a student-athlete at San Jose State, I'm excited to spend my summer providing exceptional childcare. My positive experiences in previous babysitting roles, coupled with being a middle child, have instilled in me a genuine love for kids. I have three years of experience caring for children of all ages and am comfortable with up to two children at a time. I'm patient, creative, friendly, and very comfortable enforcing household rules. I enjoy playing outdoor sports, board games, and even some technology-based games with children. I prioritize open communication with parents, using verbal updates at pickup or your preferred method. I'm happy to help with cooking, crafts, carpooling, and swimming supervision. I'm eager to bring my energy and enthusiasm to your family this summer and create a fun, nurturing environment for your children.
Hi, I'm Kat. I have over 20 years of experience in childcare. I graduated from UC Berkeley and currently pursuing a degree in Psychology with an emphasis in Child and Adolescent Mental Health. I have experience in nutritional science as well as childhood education. I have served as a nanny for children ranging from newborn to middle school. I enjoy engaging children in the natural world of plants and creatures, reading, science, arts and crafts, sports, and fun games. As an instructional assistant, I have experience in tutoring and homework help. I can make baking and cooking a fun and interactive activity for children. I am CPR certified by the American Red Cross. As a cat parent myself, I have some experience with pet care-taking as well.
Hi! I’m a 30-year-old caring, responsible, and dependable babysitter with previous nanny experience from my high school and college years. I’ve always enjoyed working with children and creating a safe, fun, and nurturing environment where they feel comfortable and cared for. I’m patient, attentive, and happy to help with playtime, meals, homework, bedtime routines, and keeping little ones entertained!
