Find a babysitter in Alameda, CA

Hi Bay Area neighbors! My name is Astrid, and I'm a responsible and energetic careworker invested in providing fun and culturally informed care. I am adaptable to your unique family needs and want to create a fun and safe environment for your family. I'm currently a master of social work student and aspiring birthworker with experience caring for children, teens, and adults in a mental health capacity. I also have experience caring for infants, toddlers, and elementary-aged children, older adults and pets. I was raised by my grandmother who ran a small at-home daycare which sparked my passion for supporting healthy family ecosystems. Nowadays, I'm a tía to a 1-year-old baby and a cat mom to 2 rambunctious kittens. Because I am a full-time student with a day-time mental health worker job, I'm looking for one-time, occasional and part-time work. Please message me with your questions and inquiries. Let's see if we'd be a good fit!

Hi there! I’m Mia. I have been caring for children for 8 years as a babysitter and as the oldest of 3 siblings. I have a lot of experience with infants/toddlers, and I have also spent 5 years working with children on the autism spectrum (2-18 years old). I truly love working with kids and will use every opportunity to help them grow and learn. I hope that I'm the right fit for your family. Feel free to contact me, you won't be disappointed!

Hello! My name is Margaret! I’m new here, and excited to start my part time position becoming your house sitter, cleaner, or pet sitter. I can also pick up kids from school, do laundry or errands and things of that nature. I can provide people who can attest that I am trustworthy, kind, and that I learn very quickly! I am super diligent and hardworking and most of all, focused. Hope to talk to you soon!

Hello! My name is Moa. I have 6+ years of professional childcare experience. I am completely comfortable working with children, from infants to teenagers. I work part time as an instructional aide, so I'm primarily available in the afternoons/evenings and weekends. I enjoy my job because I love working with children! I am first aid and CPR certified.

Hi! I'm Shae and I am a flight attendant based in San Francisco, originally from Iowa. While I am new to UrbanSitter, I am not new to providing child care. I began babysitting for family friends and families around my neighborhood when I was 13 years old. My mother also ran an in-home daycare business for most of my younger life and I always loved getting home from school and running over to help her care for the infants/toddlers. Being a flight attendant is my full time job but I am looking to cut back on flying all around the world and spend more time at home. My job is flexible and allows me to have a lot of availability. I am a very crafty person. In my free time I love to do puzzles, make things out of clay, sew clothing and household goods, and any other crafts that may peak my interest. I love to entertain children with hands on crafts. At previous jobs I also really enjoyed taking the children on daily outings like walks to the park, hiking, or to a museum or the library. I currently live in Oakland and am happy to travel to jobs nearby in the city or surrounding areas. I previously lived in North Beach so I am familiar with areas in the city as well as the east bay. My flight attendant training lends well to caring for children as I have become accustomed to diffusing meltdowns and handling stressful situations. I have also dealt with a handful of serious medical events through my job and am trained in CPR (both for infants and adults), how to use an AED, choking, seizures, and other first aid. Also, I have people close to me who are autistic so I am well equipped with the tools needed to care for someone on the spectrum. I am looking forward to being an instrumental part of caring for you child. If you think we would be a good fit, please reach out. I look forward to hearing from you!
