Find nannies in San Mateo, CA

Hello, My name is Opal. I live in Redwood City and currently work as a Family Assistant in the area. I’m looking to add more hours to my schedule—approximately 20 hours per week in March and around 30 hours per week starting in April. My schedule is flexible, and I am available to start the week of March 16th. Family Assistance (4 years of experience) I can help with meal prep (lunch and dinner), keeping the home organized and tidy, reorganizing children’s closets, sorting outgrown clothes for donation, and running household errands. I’m also happy to handle grocery shopping (Whole Foods pickup, Trader Joe’s, Costco), return packages, and take the family car for maintenance. I’m very organized and also enjoy cooking, especially Thai food. Pet Care I’m comfortable helping with pet care, including feeding, walking, taking pets to grooming or vet appointments, and picking up pet supplies. Childcare (11 years of experience) I have extensive childcare experience, including 5+ years caring for newborns, infants, and toddlers. I am Infant CPR and First Aid certified, fully vaccinated with boosters, and have received my flu shot and TDAP. I truly enjoy working with children and love engaging them through reading, singing, playing, and outdoor activities such as going to the park, library, and museums. I have my own car, a California driver’s license with a clean driving record, and can safely drive children using the family car. I’m a fun, punctual, reliable, patient, flexible, and positive person who loves both children and animals. I’m happy to provide references upon request. Rate: $38–$40 per hour. Thank you, and I look forward to hearing from you. Best regards, Opal

Hi, I’m Cristina! I have over six years of experience caring for children from 10 months to 14 years old. I love babysitting because I enjoy doing fun projects with kids and taking them to the park. My interest in childcare really grew from helping take care of my little cousin with Down syndrome, which taught me a lot about patience and how rewarding it is to care for children. A little about me: I love reading, spending time with family and friends, and learning new things. I also have a dog that I love taking to the beach! I’m open to traveling with families as well. Thanks so much for taking the time to read a little about me!

Hi - My name is Mariana and I’m looking for a 2 part time, weekdays, one in the morning one afternoon, open for a full time was well, and babysitting. I love working with kids and have experience caring for children from 6 months to 11 years old. I’m comfortable with everything from diaper changes to preparing meals, and I bring a mix of fun and learning to our time together — reading stories, coloring, puzzles, going to the park, and even the occasional dance party. I’m responsible, organized, and genuinely enjoy spending my days with kids. I’m CPR certified, a strong swimmer, fully vaccinated, and a safe driver.

With 19 years of experience in education, I bring a wealth of knowledge, leadership, and genuine passion to every family I work with. Throughout my career, I have taught 1st, 3rd, 4th, 5th, 6th, 7th, and 8th grades and have served in school leadership roles. These experiences have given me a deep understanding of child development, learning, behavior, and how to create environments where children feel safe, supported, and successful. In addition to my professional career in education, I have provided babysitting and nanny services for more than 25 years. I have extensive experience caring for children from newborns through teenagers and am comfortable adapting to the unique needs of every age and stage. Excellent references are available upon request. Although my professional career has been in education and school leadership, I have continued providing childcare throughout the years because I truly enjoy working with children and supporting families. As I search for my next long-term leadership opportunity, I am excited to dedicate more of my time to caring for children—something that has always been one of the most rewarding parts of my life. Over the years, many of the children I've cared for have described me as "firm, fair, and fun"—and I truly believe all three can exist together. Parents have affectionately referred to me as the local "Super Nanny" and even "The Baby Whisperer," compliments that I cherish because they reflect the trust families place in me. My philosophy is simple: children thrive when they are loved, respected, and held to high expectations. I encourage kindness, good manners, personal responsibility, and respect for both others and their environment. I believe children should spend time outdoors, use their imagination, solve problems, and learn to work cooperatively with others—including their siblings. I create a warm, structured environment where children feel safe, capable, and confident while having plenty of fun along the way. Whether your family is looking for an occasional date-night sitter, a dependable nanny, homework support, or someone who can confidently care for multiple children, my goal is always the same: to provide exceptional care while giving parents complete peace of mind. I strive to become a trusted extension of your family and someone your children are excited to see each time I walk through the door.
