Hello! My name is Samantha. I am a caring, responsible, and patient nanny with over 5 years of childcare experience. As a mother myself, I understand how important it is for parents to feel that their children are safe, happy, and well cared for. I am a Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) and CPR certified, which allows me to provide an extra level of safety and attention when caring for children. My background in healthcare has helped me develop strong skills in responsibility, observation, and providing compassionate care. I enjoy creating a positive and nurturing environment where children can feel comfortable, learn, and have fun. I love engaging kids in activities such as reading, creative play, outdoor walks, and helping them build healthy routines. Families describe me as trustworthy, attentive, and warm. My goal is always to support children's growth and well-being while giving parents peace of mind. I would be happy to help care for your little ones!

Booked by 22 families in San Jose, CA

Hi families! My name is Chloe and I am 28 years old with about a decade of experience providing childcare and household services for multiple families. I can assure you I will provide the best care for your child/children. I have worked with my primary family for over 5 years, but due to both of the kids now being in school my hours have been reduced and I am looking to pick up extra hours! When it comes to childcare, my goal is to create a safe, warm, and nurturing space for children and I always tailor my approach to meet each family’s individual needs. Growing up with two younger sisters played a big role in shaping who I am today. It encouraged me to be playful, patient, and imaginative, all of which I bring into childcare. I have had the joy of working with infants, babies, toddlers, and children ages 0–12. My responsibilities have included school pick-ups and transportation, meal prep and bottle feeding, bathing, bedtime routines and creating fun, engaging activities that support developmental milestones. I’m happy to help with household tasks such as laundry, dishes, light tidying, and running errands. Thank you for considering me and I look forward to connecting with you! Fun facts about me: • I graduated SJSU with a degree in Psychology • I am a big San Jose Sharks fan • I love arts and crafts and used to sell stickers on Etsy *For scheduling clarity, I do ask that if I am booked for a specific time period and that time ends earlier than planned, I am still paid for the full number of hours reserved. I appreciate your understanding, as this allows me to reliably manage my schedule.
