Find an after school nanny in Albany, CA

Hi! My name is Wendy. I’m a 24-year-old Oakland native (turning 25 this year) with over 5 years of childcare experience and a deep passion for supporting children and families. I am also a proud mom to a six-month-old baby, which has strengthened my patience, attentiveness, and understanding of how important trust and communication are when caring for someone’s child. I recently completed two years as an AmeriCorps Student Support Specialist at an OUSD elementary school, where I provided behavior support, social-emotional support, and math interventions for students ages 4–12. I worked closely with teachers, administrators, and school psychologists to help students feel supported and successful. Following that role, I worked at Lodestar High School supporting students with diverse and more intensive behavioral and academic needs. That experience strengthened my skills in behavior management, de-escalation strategies, structured routines, and individualized support. I bring many years of babysitting experience through UrbanSitter, caring for children ages 1–16, along with hands-on newborn experience through my extended family and now as a mother. I am fluent in English and Spanish and come from a large extended family, which has shaped my nurturing and adaptable personality. I am committed to creating a safe, structured, and loving environment where children can thrive. I prioritize clear communication with families about routines, meals, and expectations because I understand that every family has unique parenting styles and needs. In addition to childcare, I also have experience and offer house sitting and pet sitting services for cats and dogs. I also have a background in housekeeping, so maintaining a clean and organized home is always part of my care. In my free time, I enjoy hiking and rock climbing and staying active outdoors. I look forward to supporting your family and providing dependable, thoughtful care for your children and home.

My name is Margarita. I have 12+ years experience as a nanny. I have 5 younger brothers and sisters who I helped take care growing up. Now, I have 2 teenage children of my own. I have been a nanny for several babies and toddlers for years at a time. I have also done a few nanny shares with toddlers. I take the children to the park, library, and walks in the neighborhood. I am comfortable driving, doing arts and crafts, diapering, preparing meals, and getting the children on a schedule both with naps/eating. I maintain communication with the parents throughout the day. I still stay in touch with all of the families that I have worked with in the past and love to continue to watch the children grow up. I am bilingual - Spanish and English. I have taken classes in childhood development, Pediatric first aid, Child/infant CPR AED, Adult CPR AED and Asthma care course. I am up to date on all vaccines, including the covid vaccine and booster, and follow all guidelines to stay safe/healthy. I am looking for a full time position. I'm comfortable caring for multiple children and in households with pets. I have excellent references that can be shared upon request. I have a passion for taking care of children and will care for your children as my own.

Hello, My name is Chanakarn, I also go by Chana. I’ve been babysitting since before the age of 18, after the age of 18 I’ve been nannying since then, which have now been 7 years of my nannying career. I’ve worked with many families for occasionally nannying, temporary nanny, one-time, part-time, as will have full-time nanny, including both short term and long term care. Some families have pets, dogs, cat, or both, I get along with them as well, and sometimes will do dog sitting, as well as cat sitting. I’ve cared for children at the age of 1 months to the age of 13 year, which is definitely a wide range of different age group. This brings different energy, tactics, methods, and skills out to teach, grow, and learn alongside with them. I can confidently say that all of the children I’ve taken care of have their own unique personality and different ways of expressing their feelings. I’ve never deny their thoughts and expressions, but will calmly show and explain what action is not nice to do if any case, how it can hurt others or harm themselves. Throughout the years of my experience I’ve learned so much and do understand ways to adapt and work with different individual personality traits. I love to see each individual grow and will continue to do what I love.

Hello, my name is Júlia. It's a pleasure to meet you! I have a background as a former Au Pair and I'm excited to begin my journey as a college student. My experience has involved providing full-time care to newborns and toddlers, both as an Au Pair and back in my home country of Brazil, where I worked in a daycare and looked after my cousins. I am often described as responsible, patient, sweet, and calm. Interacting with children brings me immense joy, whether it's playing, engaging in arts and crafts, going for walks, or simply making sure they have a great time. In addition to my passion for child care, I have always loved animals. In Brazil, I pursued my studies in veterinary medicine because I find great fulfillment in taking care of animals. If you have any pets, I would be more than happy to extend my care to them as well! I’m so looking forward to meet you! Julia
