Booked by 11 families in Danville, CA

Hi I’m Jhenae! I’m a college student available for one-time or part time work during July-August 2026! I absolutely love working with children! For the past 6 years, I have cared for infants, toddlers, and youth! From part-time babysitting positions, to working summer camps, and volunteer work with children! Families would describe me as caring, responsible, and very attentive. I always prioritize children’s needs while making sure they are having fun! (Away from the technology, of course!) In addition, I have a license and my own car! I am willing to safely drive your children upon request! I am also experienced in caring for pets so I’m willing to help in any way possible! Feel free to reach out to me with any questions!

Oakland
$37 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 46 families in Danville, CA

Hi, my name is Knar. I was born and raised in San Francisco and currently live in Oakland, with no issues commuting into the city. I have over 15 years of childcare experience and am deeply passionate about providing nurturing, dependable care that supports children’s growth, confidence, and development. My background includes three years working in a daycare setting and twelve years as a full-time nanny, giving me hands-on experience with children across a wide range of ages and stages. I value building close, trusting relationships with both children and parents and take pride in being a steady, supportive presence in a family’s life. My childcare philosophy centers on creating a safe, loving environment with clear structure, consistency, and care so children feel secure and encouraged as they grow. I am family-oriented, patient, respectful, and highly communicative, and I believe open and honest communication is the foundation of a strong partnership. In addition to childcare, I am happy to assist with light household tasks such as baby laundry and dishes, introducing solids, supporting developmental milestones, and tailoring care to each child’s unique needs. Availability update: I have recently accepted a full-time position and am not currently available, but I appreciate you taking the time to view my profile.
