Not only will your children be safe and happy, I will do my best to engage and to enrich them as well. I will act as a good role model at all times. I do not text socially, or facebook or twitter-I will be paying attention to the safety and needs of your children. I will not watch or listen to anything that is remotely inappropriate for children. I have a clean driving record and I am a strong swimmer. I am vaccinated against whopping cough and I have a current, negative, TB test. At your request, I can take your kids on outings. I am available for Friday and Saturday overnights. I have lots of experience with newborns through young adults. I also have lots of experience with special needs. I will always try to make things fun and light, while still following the rules and guidlines in your home. I am completely dependable and honest, and I will always respect the privacy of your family. My fingerprints are cleared through the State of California, as I have worked for VUSD for over 6 years as a substitute teacher (for all levels, subjects and grades). Prior to that I worked at Amgen, but chose to leave to care for my own two children...but, now, they're grown.

Hello Parents, I have completed 12 units in Early Childhood Education and bring both professional experience and genuine passion to my work with children. Growing up in a large family, I began caring for my nieces and nephews at a young age, which inspired my career in childcare. I later gained more hands on experience working at a preschool for several years and have continued to nanny for families, including my own, with children ranging from infants to school age. If selected, I look forward to meeting you and your little one(s) and providing a safe, nurturing, and engaging environment for them to thrive.

***I am only available for occasional babysitting after 5pm on weekdays and some weekends. Thank you for understanding!*** I am an administrative professional who became a nanny during the pandemic. While I am no longer nannying full time, I am hoping to babysit occasionally for a few families long-term on evenings and weekends. I have experience with kids of all ages and absolutely love pets! I am fully vaccinated and boosted for COVID and am willing to mask, etc. I grew up doing theatre and love to entertain little ones with singing, dancing, reading aloud, etc! I had many different nannies growing up and know how important they are to a child's life. My friends would describe me as very reliable, conscientious, and caring. References happily provided upon request. I look forward to hearing from you! ------------------------------------------------------------ “Nina is incredibly patient, loving and helpful with our 6 month old son. She has always been very adaptable to our developing parenting styles (first time parents over here!) and she’s been very helpful in providing recommendations or additional context based on her previous nanny experiences. She is an excellent communicator and she regularly goes above and beyond to make our son as comfortable as possible and celebrate his baby milestones. She engages with our son through many activities including singing, reading, playing, going outside, tummy time and snuggles at nap time. I wish we could continue our time with Nina, but we are moving out of the state. If you are looking for a dependable and caring nanny, Nina will be a great fit for your family!” -Katie, February-June 2021

Adriana’s Bio I am a former preschool teacher with 20 years of experience working with children. I have worked as a nanny/babysitter as well. I am a fun, loving person and offer more than the typical babysitter as I focus on supporting the overall development of children I work with. My experience ranges from newborn to middle school age, including children with special needs, as I hold a certificate of specialization in special needs education and have several years of experience working with diverse abilities. I have two children of my own; a 23 year old son and a 27 year old daughter, who graduated from Stanford with a Master’s degree. I am a native Spanish speaker, CPR certified, with perfect driving record, and registered with Trustline as an added level of trustworthiness. No house cleaning/cooking services offered.

Hello, my name is Celine. I am an undergraduate student pursing a degree in speech and hearing sciences because I want to become a speech pathologist for children. I am studying online which allows me to have flexibility within my schedule and also allows me to stay local here in Sunnyvale, CA with my family. A little about me, I love being active and going to the gym and going on walks/hikes. I love traveling but often don't leave for too long because I miss my cats and dogs at home. I absolutely love working with kids and I have over 4 years of experience. I have worked as a full time nanny, date night babysitting, pre school teacher, swim instructor, and day care attendant. I have experience working with kids of all ages but have spent the most time with elementary aged children. Most recently, I have been working as a special education instructional aide at an elementary school in Palo Alto. We are on summer break from school so I have a very open and flexible schedule for the month of June and the month of August. Please feel free to reach out if you have any further questions I would be happy to answer :)
