Emily Y. Pet Care Provider in Santa Clara, CA 95051

Emily has been our nanny for about 6 months, and we are sad that we will no longer need her services once our kids are able to go back to school.

Emily's key responsibilities were to care for our two boys (ages 7 and 4). This initially involved helping the 7-year-old with distance learning and afterschool activities from home, while also ensuring the 4-year-old was entertained. The role evolved to include driving both boys to and from school when classes began to open up for hours at a time. She also did light housework (folded laundry, loaded/unloaded dishwasher, took out trash), which made all the difference in our busy schedules. Overall, she was incredibly adaptable to the changing needs of our family, and also reliable.

Emily's best qualities are that she is kind, patient, and attentive to the kids. She quickly picked up that my 7-year-old had a preferred learning style, which is to quietly try everything a few times on his own before asking for (or sometimes reacting to offered) help. Whereas, with my 4-year-old, she understood that he wanted more proactive attention and activity. Sometimes my 4-year-old would act up, but she was always patient and sweet. She has been an incredible help to our family, and I would recommend her to any family looking for a nanny, babysitter, tutor or general helper.

Emily is reliable and kind. My daughter immediately took fancy to her.
