✨ Moms of Oakland / SF — Your Dream Nanny Might Be Right Here ✨ If you’re looking for a highly experienced, calm, and engaging nanny who truly becomes part of the family, I may be the person you’ve been hoping to find. I’m currently seeking a part-time or full-time position, ideally in Oakland, but open to San Francisco for the right family. A little about me: • 10 years of professional nanny experience with incredible Bay Area families • CPR & First Aid certified • Extensive experience with newborns, infants, toddlers, and preteens • Confident with sleep training, developmental milestones, structured routines, and gentle guidance • Experienced with tutoring, homework support, and school-age structure • Known for creating calm, organized, happy environments for kids to thrive What families tend to love about working with me: • I’m very reliable and communicative (parents never have to wonder how their kids’ day went) • I focus on developmental play, outdoor activities, reading, creativity, and emotional growth • I help keep kid spaces organized and support the flow of the household • I’ve maintained long-term relationships with many past families, and still regularly help them with date nights and extra care Childcare is something I genuinely love — I take pride in creating a safe, nurturing environment while helping kids grow into confident little humans. I’m happy to provide excellent references from past families who can speak to my experience and character. If you think we might be a good fit, feel free to comment or message me — I’d love to connect and learn about your family. 🤍

Hi! I’m Nelly — a 23-year-old CSU East Bay alum currently working toward getting into a Physical Therapy program. I’m super active and run both track and cross country, so I love bringing fun, positive energy into everything I do! Right now, I work at Chabot College as an Adaptive Physical Activity Instructor, where I support and work closely with individuals of all abilities. I also work in the nursery at my church caring for children ages 1–4, and I absolutely love working with babies and helping them feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I’m really passionate about working with kids and hope to pursue a career in collegiate coaching someday. I already have 4+ years of experience coaching youth and enjoy creating a fun, supportive, and safe environment where kids can be active, build confidence, and just have a good time. Whether it’s playing outside, doing crafts, helping with routines, or keeping little ones entertained, I always try to make sure kids feel happy and cared for while parents feel at ease too!

“Our kiddo is not used to new people. Nelly did an amazing job taking her time with him and letting him warm up to her. By the time we got home, he kept asking for her to come back and play. Will definitely be hiring her again. Regular communication helped us feel comfortable going out for a bit.”

Hola I'm Nancy and I am looking for an extended family to work with. I have worked with various families over the past 20 years. I have been exposed to the Montessori style. I have lots of experience with new parents solo or in a nanny shared. I have care for newborn babies and their needs until school age. I myself have 3 children of my own, whom I raised with the great families I worked with in the past. I like taking walks on the beach, listening to Disney songs, and have walks on a rainy day. My kids are now 16, 18 and 24 yrs old. I'm very reliable, responsible, stern, caring, flexible and I also have great references from my current and previous families. I’m searching for a family whose looking for an extended family to rely on. Gracias, Nancy

“Nancy was a nanny for my son (now 2) and also helped with my five year old. She is capable, experienced, conscientious, trustworthy communicative and entirely focused on the well-being of the child. She always came up with thoughtful activities for our kids and was very caring with them. She can cook for them and also is a dependable driver. Feel free to have Nancy put you in touch with me personally if you would like to chat further about her!”

"Johanna is AMAZING! My two boys love her - she does everything from amazing arts & crafts, to helping with homework, to getting them playing outside! She also drives them and does everything involved with after school activities: packing snacks, getting the right gear, etc."

"When we hired Amani, we felt like we hit the jackpot. We were very lucky to find her on UrbanSitter at the beginning of school year. She was picking up kids from school, taking them to afternoon activities, helping them with assignments. She prepped food for them, helped organize their closets and keep their spaces neat and orderly. We would hire her again in a heartbeat."
