Find a babysitter in Oakland, CA

Hi there! I'm Charlotte. I have a degree in Sociology from the USF, and I have been caring for children for 12 years as a babysitter/nanny. I am currently a full time nanny for a one year old in Bernal Heights for 3 weeks of the month, every 4th week the baby is cared for by her grandmother, and I am looking to pick up some short term/date-night gigs during that week, or evening gigs during the other weeks. I have a lot of experience working with infants and toddlers, as well as caring for multi-child homes with 4+ children. I truly love working with kids, I am a certified yoga instructor and have worked at a kids summer theater camp. I can provide multiple references upon request.

Hello, my name is Lita. I recently completed the UX Design Bootcamp at UC Berkeley Extension and am currently offering childcare, Doula, and household support services. I genuinely enjoy working with children and have experience caring for newborns, infants, toddlers, and school-aged kids—including twins. My past responsibilities have included school drop-offs and pick-ups, arts and crafts, tutoring, and even teaching swimming lessons. In addition to childcare, I also assist with household tasks such as cooking, cleaning, and running errands. I have a passion for cooking and love sharing Thai cuisine—sometimes I even cook together with the children as a fun, hands-on activity that helps us connect. I’m also comfortable working in homes with pets and occasionally help with dog and cat sitting as well. I’d be happy to learn more about your family’s needs and see how I can support you!

Hello! I’m currently living and working at a Buddhist monastery in San Francisco, where I meditate daily and study Buddhist psychology. I’m preparing to begin graduate school this fall to become a therapist, and I bring a calm, attentive, and compassionate presence to my work with children. I’ve spent many years caring for kids in a variety of settings. I grew up babysitting and recently returned from Asia, where I worked as a camp counselor in Japan leading groups of children and supporting ADHD, autism, and mental health needs. I’ve also taught English to children in Vietnam and worked as a tutor in the U.S. for two years. I love to dance, play, and do crafts, and I enjoy creating a fun, supportive, and safe environment.

Having just completed my master's degree in Global Health, I have recently moved to San Francisco and am looking to work in childcare while I get settled. I have steadily watched children of all ages (anywhere from 4 months to 11 years) since I was a young teenager. I last worked as an after-school nanny to a five-year-old boy while I was getting my undergraduate degree in Washington, DC. I have also worked as an English literacy tutor for kindergarteners. I genuinely adore children, and would love to help your family out! I am also happy to provide references. In my free time, I love to practice yoga, rock climb, cook, and explore the city's parks and museums.

Hello! My name is Neha and I just moved to the area from Washington, DC! In DC, I served as a part time nanny of 2 children (ages 6 and 9) for 4 years. I also was the part time nanny of a 2 year old girl for 2 years. Additionally I have done many occasional babysitting gigs for a range of ages from infants to 14 year olds. I am passionate about childcare and am a very caring and kind nanny. I am willing to help with homework and am conscious of any rules that need to be maintained. I love to play and am always suggesting playing with toys, or playing outside to keep kids off screens! I have played everything from barbie to hide and seek to legos with kids and truly love it. I prioritize the safety of your children and am always available for communication on my phone. I like to keep parents updated with check-ins. I have a valid drivers license and am happy to drive but do not have a car. Overall, I truly love taking care of children and have extensive experience!
