Find a babysitter in Oakland, CA

Hello! My name is Alondra, I recently graduated from UCR and now back in San Francisco. I have been babysitting since I was 15 and all of my jobs have been working with kids. In high school I was an after school teacher/counselor and for summer I was a summer program teacher. In college I was a tutor for an elementary student and taught them Spanish. I am also a dog owner so I would also be able to take care of your pets.

Hello, my name is Ginna , I’m 32 years old, and I live in Pacific Heights. I have over seven years of experience caring for babies and toddlers, including nanny share arrangements, and I’ve had the joy of working with several wonderful families across the Bay Area. I’d be happy to provide excellent references upon request. With kids, I love planning engaging activities—playgrounds, walks, libraries, museums, and play dates if possible! I’m very familiar with local spots like Lafayette Park, Alta Plaza, Broadway Park, and Moscone Park, where little ones can play, explore, and enjoy the outdoors. My goal is to create a safe, nurturing, and fun environment where children can grow and learn. I enjoy helping families establish routines that are not only consistent but also fun and educational. Families usually describe me as punctual, communicative, easy to talk to, honest, and reliable, which helps build a smooth and positive relationship with both children and parents. I’m bilingual (English and Spanish) and can naturally incorporate Spanish into activities if parents would like. I also help with children’s laundry, cleaning bottles, tidying toys, light meal prep, and other small tasks that support the family routine. I am CPR and First Aid certified, hold a valid driver’s license, and always bring patience, warmth, and a positive attitude to the job. I’d love the opportunity to meet your little one and learn how I can support your family. Best regards, Ginna

Hi! I'm Rachael. I'm 27 and live in the Marina. I found my passion for working with kids when I was 13 years old and became a mothers helper. From there, I've worked at different schools, internships at speech clinics, and eventually earned my Master's in Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA). I've also worked for several ABA clinics supporting children with disabilities, and I'm very comfortable with positive behavior strategies. I am experienced working with newborns, infants, toddlers, and school-aged children. What matters most to me is connecting with your child, using positive reinforcement (like praise, attention, and play), and creating a comfortable, safe space for them. When I'm with your child, you can leave and genuinely not worry. I come prepared with high energy and hands-on activities. 99% of the time, they're having so much fun that they forget to check the door :)

I specialize in planning fun, educational, and age-appropriate activities that spark creativity and promote learning—such as arts and crafts, imaginative play, outdoor games, storytime, and basic educational games that support early development. I’m also comfortable helping with homework, preparing healthy snacks or meals, and maintaining routines like bedtime and screen time in a calm and positive way. What sets me apart is my patient and caring nature, my reliability, and my genuine passion for helping children grow with confidence and curiosity. I understand the importance of trust and open communication with parents, and I’m always happy to work together to ensure your child’s unique needs are met. Please don't hesitate to contact me at [removed]) if you have any questions or would like to discuss how I can best support your family.
