Gabrielle $29 per hour for 1 child

Hi families! I am a passionate, patient, and highly communicative caregiver who truly loves being a part of children's growth and daily milestones. I believe in creating a joyful, structured, and engaging environment for little ones. One of my favorite things is planning creative activities both indoors and outdoors. I love introducing music to children’s routines—I’ve been playing the keyboard since I was 12 years old and enjoy using music for learning and fun! I also love cooking healthy meals, diving into the magical world of Disney and cartoons, and planning special surprises or themed activities for holidays and celebratory dates to make their childhood memories extra magical. Open communication is very important to me. I love connecting with parents at the end of the day to share updates, talk about the children's daily routine, and ensure we are always aligned. I look forward to bringing safety, creativity, and lots of smiles to your home!

Booked by 1 family in Mount Hamilton, CA

Hello family! My name is Hildy. I’m a fun-loving, experienced nanny with over 10 years of childcare experience and CPR/First Aid certification. I enjoy being part of a child’s everyday world helping them learn, play, and feel safe and supported. I have taken early childhood education courses, incorporate Montessori methods, and have worked as an assistant to an after school teacher. I also have experience with children of different ages and needs, including ADHD, high-functioning autism (I’m familiar with IEP accommodations), and food allergies. I’m very mindful of safety and provide healthy meals or snacks. In addition to childcare, I also have experience in elderly care and companionship, which has strengthened my patience, attentiveness, and compassion. I’m dependable, punctual, calm, patient, and I support families with routines, school drop-offs and pick-ups, activities, meal prep, errands, and light housekeeping. I find caregiving to be a rewarding and fulfilling career, and I’m truly honored to be a part of a child’s growth and development.
