We have known Liliana for quite some time. We first met her when our son was three years old, and he is now 15 years old. She served as a babysitter for us for quite some time, including driving our son around the city for a different Sports practices. We have good things to say about Liliana. Now we are using her more for tasks around the house, as our son does not need a babysitter any longer. We, recommend Liliana without reservation. She’s very communicative and trustworthy. We can rely on her to house sitting while we’re gone as well. She’s definitely great with kids and very creatively entertaining them as well. Highly recommend her.

Sheri did a one-day trial with us to care for our 5-month-old baby. She was very responsible in changing diapers, gently helping him fall asleep, and engaging with him during his awake time. Our baby was very comfortable with her and clearly enjoyed her company. Although our family is currently going through a major transition and we are unfortunately unable to move forward with hiring her, we highly recommend Sheri for any childcare position.

I ran 43 daycares for 16 years on the East Coast and was a nanny both in Maryland and in California after the selling of the daycares. I have also taught swimming, art, and dance to young children. I developed the curriculum for the daycares and trained the teaching staff. I have worked with thousands of children over a long career and still receive Christmas cards for children that are now in high school and college. I have over 2000 hours of Early childhood education and am a member of multiple teaching websites and stay up to date on current changes and teaching methods. I have been certified in CPR and first aid for years and have used it successfully in an emergency situation. I completed a class in CPR and First aid in May 2020 at the College of San Mateo and have been certified for many years. I am up to date on current trends such as Baby-led weening and other new techniques. I maintain a log so that the parents know what is happening with their young children. The log includes food and milk intake, diaper activity, nap length, and any observations that need to be passed on. I also take children to parks and pools or other activities. I am vaccinated and Covid careful. I also have multiple references from my past nanny positions. I have a pre-school and art program that I have developed and use currently. I enjoy working with children and building their confidence using music and art. I like to include active learning exercises that keep the children engaged. Singing is a constant part of my day-to-day interaction with the children I care for. I have 5 large Rubbermaid containers filled with games, art supplies, pre-school lessons and a storyboard with many different stories. All geared to develop confidence and build their learning capabilities. My rate is based not only on the market rate but hours and needs. When you hire me you are getting a professional that also becomes part of the family. I am currently looking for a position that is no less than 20 hours and no more than 40 hours a week. If you would like to hire me but don't have a total of 32 hours I am open to a salary amount that pays at the 32-hour rate when under the needed hours. I request five days of paid sick leave, two weeks of paid vacation the first year. Guaranteed salary based on the minimum hours. If this is something that you agree with I look forward to hearing from you.

JoElla was awesome! She took great care of our 6mo baby girl before she went to daycare. She is very detail-oriented, caring, responsible, and communicative. She helped my daughter stay on the age-appropriate schedule, got her used to bottle feeding, and helped her developmentally through various playtime activities. My daughter used to only take crap naps but with Jo she started taking longer naps! We were amazed. We look forward to working with Jo again in the future!

Hello! My name is Wuendi. I’m 24 years old and currently work as a bilingual instructional associate at Sequoia High School from 8:30 AM to 3:15 PM. I recently moved from Sunnyvale to Redwood City and am looking for an additional job in the area. In the afternoons, I care for a 3-year-old, but I’d prefer something closer to home. I graduated from UCSC with a bachelor's in sociology and am working hard to save money to return to school for my master’s in school counseling in a year or two. I have six years of experience working with children and can provide contact information for three families I've worked with, including one for five years. Thank you!

I'm a recent college graduate with a degree in Child and Adolescent Development, with a concentration in Elementary Education. Although new to professional child care, I have experience babysitting my nieces, providing engaging activities, helping with meals, and homework. With 3 years of working with students in an after school setting under my belt, I provide fun approaches in my activity prep. Genuine compassion, patience, and understanding are how I stay successful in building connections with children. I currently work part-time at a math after school program where I work with students ranging from grades 2-6. I am flexible in discussing what schedule would work best. Currently I am not CPR + First Aid certified, however I have extensive experience with children of all ages and can becoming certified when necessary. I’m excited to bring my enthusiasm and positive attitude to a part-time babysitting role. Making sure your kids have a fun and safe environment while also supporting your family’s needs. Feel free to message me if you have any questions :)

Hello my name is Brenda and I am a Latina female. When it comes to being a sitter I love every part of it. Especially having the opportunity to see the personality of the child, and the amazing person they become while providing a safe, fun and caring environment where they feel safe to be themselves. All while helping them have an environment to grow while fulfilling your family’s needs. A little about me: I speak fluent English and Spanish and I am currently learning ASL (American Sign Language) and am studying to major in nursing. I previously have taken care of kids ages 4 months - 10 years old, and I am Adult and Pediatric First Aid/CPR/AED certified.
