Find an after school nanny in Alameda, CA

Experienced, kind, and flexible support looking to provide part or full time care (20-40 hours per week) in Berkeley/East Bay while I work on a part-time neuroscience project. I'm active/outdoorsy, creative, and nerdy--I love engaging children of all ages in the fullness of what's happening now! Available for work while my primary family is out of town June 22-June 27. Please note that my hourly rate may adjust for temp/ad hoc care. Recent references available. I grew up raising my eight younger siblings in an unschooling/off-grid environment, nannied school-aged children in undergrad, and have been heavily influenced by Maria Montessori, Rudolf Steiner (Waldorf School), and Fred Rogers. One of my early goals in getting to know your family would be to understand your ethos and preferences, and support them--I've worked well with many family structures and nurturing styles. I believe strongly in empowering children to be attuned to their instincts and environments, play/explore within healthy boundaries, and to treat themselves and others with respect and care. TLDR on logistics: I’m comfortable helping with cooking, chores, errands, pets, the pre/postpartum periods, and other items as needed—happy to discuss the scope of what you’re looking for. I live in Berkeley near downtown and have my own car.

Hi! I moved to San Francisco four years ago from North Carolina and graduated from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill with a bachelor’s degree in Environmental Science. My career naturally evolved into science education with elementary-aged children, and I now nanny full-time. With six years of childcare experience working with newborns through six-year-olds, I love providing hands-on care and learning opportunities. I follow children’s natural curiosities while staying closely attuned to their cues around feeding, rest, and play, creating a supportive and engaging environment where they can thrive.

My name is Jay! I have taught almost everything from break dancing to Montessori schools to paper mache, and would love to bring what I learned from all of these experiences to your kid! Previously, I have taught ASL & english, handbuilding and wheel-thrown ceramics, social justice lessons suited to all ages, watercolor, craft arts (because who doesn't love a good friendship bracelet‽), breakdancing & hip hop, STEM-based lessons, and I've developed nature-based curriculum while I worked with Deaf kids and other kids with disabilities. And during all of these roles, I tried to be whoever my students needed me, meeting them where they were, so I was also a therapist, a caregiver, an artist, a friend, a listener, a janitor, a manager, and thousands of other roles. Even though my background is mainly child & student-focused, this has only made me a fast adapter for whatever your needs may be! So if that includes walking your dog, feeding your cat, or doing a grocery run, I'm here for it all, and however you need it to get done!
