Diana 1 review
$40 per hour for 1 child

About Me I have 5 years of experience working with children, including after-school programs where I supported students with activities, learning, and development. I am bilingual in English and Spanish and very patient when helping children or families learn new skills. I have built great relationships with the families I’ve worked with and always strive to create a safe, fun, and supportive environment for children. Outside of work, I love to dance, work out, ride my bike, bake, cook, and take walks with my dog.

“We had a wonderful experience with Diana! She took amazing care of our 5-year-old, handling the entire bedtime routine, putting our child to bed, and even feeding our dog. She is incredibly sweet, patient, and caring. Our child absolutely loves her and always looks forward to seeing her. Her bedtime routine is amazing: calm, organized, and comforting, which made evenings so much easier for us as parents. A huge plus for our family is that Diana speaks Spanish, which has been wonderful since our child is learning the language. We really appreciated the extra exposure and encouragement in such a natural way. We always felt confident leaving our child in her care and would highly recommend her to any family looking for a trustworthy and loving babysitter. We will book her again for sure. Thank so much Diana!”

Cassandra $30 per hour for 1 child

I studied Engineering at San José State University and have several years of experience working with children. I worked as an after-school STEM Educator in the Santa Clara School District at an elementary school, where I taught kids basic engineering concepts through hands-on activities, building projects, and problem-solving exercises. I enjoyed making learning fun while helping students develop creativity, teamwork, and confidence. I also worked as a YMCA instructor, teaching children basketball and soccer. I’m patient, responsible, energetic, and enjoy creating a safe and positive environment where kids can learn and have fun.
