Find an after school nanny in Fairfax, CA

I have up to five years of experience as a nanny, caring for children from newborns to early childhood. Families describe me as nurturing, patient, and incredibly reliable. I naturally create a calm, safe, and loving environment where children feel understood and cared for. I pay close attention to the little details—routines, feeding cues, and emotional needs—and I always show up with kindness and respect for each family’s unique style. In addition to my nanny experience, I bring specialized knowledge as a Newborn Care Specialist. I am a certified postpartum doula and have worked in this role for about two years, supporting babies from their very first day of life. I love helping new parents adjust to their newborn’s needs, guiding them through feeding, soothing, routines, and the emotional transition of welcoming a new baby. My goal is always to support families with compassion, confidence, and gentle, attentive care during this precious stage. I would be more than happy to help you and your family and be part of your kiddos’ growth, care, and daily routine.

I’m a responsible, patient, and caring person with experience caring for children, seniors, and pets. I’m organized, love helping others, and bring a calm and positive energy to any home. I’m also comfortable with household tasks and enjoy creating a safe and happy environment.

Hi there! My name is Becca, and I've recently moved to San Rafael from Sacramento. I’m currently looking for a full-time position starting October 5th and would be happy to provide references. I have over 5 years of professional childcare experience, including Early Childhood Education (ECE) teaching with children ages 4 months–5 years, as well as coaching gymnastics and parkour for ages 2–12. I’ve worked as a private nanny for children across all age groups and especially enjoy working with infants and preschool-aged children (3–6). I focus on play-based, child-led learning in calm, structured environments that encourage curiosity and exploration. With infants, I have experience supporting sleep routines, feeding, tummy time, and sensory play. With toddlers and preschoolers, I enjoy incorporating movement, everyday learning like early literacy and numeracy, and creative play that builds curiosity, confidence, and independence. I also bring a calm, emotionally attuned approach, helping children navigate big emotions with steady support and clear, consistent boundaries. In previous roles, I’ve supported families with school pick-ups/drop-offs, meal prep, children’s laundry, and daily routines like bath and bedtime. I’m fully vaccinated and CPR/First Aid certified. Please feel free to message me with any questions or to chat about how I can best support your family. Thank you for your time!

Hello! My name is Kyla. I’m a stay‑at‑home mom to two amazing little ones — a 2½‑year‑old boy and a 4‑month‑old.

My experience with Different Age Groups* * Infants (0‑1 year): feeding, diaper changes, nap routines, comforting, responsive care. * Toddlers (1‑3 years): high energy, lots of hands‑on interaction, learning through play, helping develop new skills (walking, talking, basic potty training if parents request, etc.). * Young preschool age if needed: guided play, early learning skills like colors, shapes, storytelling. --- **Activities I Enjoy Doing with Children** * Story time, singing, simple crafts, imaginative play * Outdoor time when weather permits: going for walks, playing on my patio or nearby park * Learning through play: puzzles, building blocks, introducing colors, shapes, counting * Quiet time/routine time: naps, snack time, reading, soothing --- **Special Skills & Talents** * Home-cooked, kid‑friendly meals/snacks, (please let me know if you have any specific requests) * I can help with basic early learning: letters, numbers, language development * Creative activities: painting, drawing, crafts, music * If needed, homework help for older children **Rates & Policies** * My rate is **\$25 per hour per child**. * I believe in transparency and clarity — if there are additional tasks you’d like (special meals, tutoring, extra transportation, etc.), we can discuss those up front I believe children thrive when they feel safe, heard, and supported. I aim to nurture a warm, stable, engaging environment where little ones can learn, explore, and grow at their pace. I value open communication with parents so I can honor your routines, preferences, and expectations.
