I've been a mothers helper since the age of 10. I've grown up in Daycares as my mother has always worked with kids, I've had to tag along. I've helped out at two Daycares my self and helped out with both the infants and toddlers. I am currently working with a family of 3 (10,14, and16) and no longer needed as much as before. i am very loving and caring and most importantly very patient. I'll have a very flexible schedule. I am a full time student at Foothill Community College and tend to work my school schedule around my work schedule when possible.

Dear parents, I am looking forward to working with you to provide excellent care for your children. I have always loved caring for babies and children, and I first started babysitting as a high school student and continued to nanny and babysit through college (2016) and onward. During the summers between my college years, I was a full time nanny for three children in elementary school, responsibly caring for them and providing homework and piano help. From 2017-2019 I worked as an art teacher at Live Oak Academy, a private school in Santa Clara. From July 2019- July 2020 I cared for a boy aged 1 year as a full time nanny, responsibly caring for him while driving him to various activities (swim, music, park), playing with him, providing meals, and keeping a nap schedule. I have renewable CPR and First Aid certifications, I own a car and driver's license, and have an excellent driving record. I'm known to be punctual, reliable, and caring. I'm generally available on weekday afternoons. Feel free to reach out, I'd love to meet you to see if I would be a good fit caring for your children. Sincerely, Carolyn

Hello, my name is Tracey, and I would love to learn more about your family! I am a California Certified Teacher (Art) and started working as a full-time Nanny 2 years ago. I have worked full-time with part-time positions and regular reoccurring families with various needs and requirements. I have worked with infants to 8 year olds, with the tiny ones being my favorite. ☺️ In addition to Nannying, I've worked as an English as a second language reading and writing Teacher. I have worked with 2 sets of twins, one set with neurodivergent exceptionalities that I have been with on weekend days for 2 years. My strengths as a Nanny come with 25 years of Teacing experience. I am patient, kind and an excellent communicator. As such, I flourish with a family with these and other positive traits.

I am happy to share with you my extensive resume and excellent references. Thank you for your consideration and I look forward to meeting you!
