I just graduated from school with my Doctorate in Occupational therapy and am looking for extra babysitting to help with paying off my student loans. I work in early childhood mental health and school-based OT. I got my undergraduate degree from Southern Oregon University in Ashland, Oregon, with a major in Theater, emphasis in set construction. I also have a minor in Early Childhood Development. Before COVID I worked at Cal Shakespeare in Berkeley/Orinda. I have been working with children for the past 18 years as a date night sitter, a nanny, a childcare worker, and a preschool teacher. I have experience with all ages. I am CPR certified, and I recently just refreshed my certification. I love working with all types of children. I love to play games (inside and outside), watch movies, build forts, and I especially love arts and crafts with the kiddos.

Hi! I'm Anja (An-ya)! I’m a Bay Area native and a mom! I have a daughter who is 3. I have availability on Thursday with some Fridays. Let me know if you want my daughter to come along! I've been working as a babysitter and nanny since high school, when I regularly babysat for neighborhood families with toddler age children. In college I worked for a service (fittingly) called College Nannies and Tutors, which provided on-call care for a variety of families across the Bay Area. I was booked with families whose daycare providers were on vacation, children who were too sick to go to school, and for kids whose parents worked from home - or who just needed a day to themselves! As you can imagine, I got to know a diverse group of children and parents and was able to work closely with them to meet their own special set of needs. I love fostering children's imagination and independence, and getting to know their unique personalities. Whether it's dinosaurs, dump trucks, Elsa, or Lightning McQueen, if they're interested, I'm interested!

Hi families! My name is Laura, and I’m a warm, reliable, and experienced nanny currently completing my degree in special education. I’m available for evening babysitting, morning hours during the week, and weekend childcare support. I’ve worked with children of all ages—from 3 months to 14 years—through my years as a full-time nanny, babysitter (since age 16!), and camp counselor. I also have extensive experience supporting children with a wide range of special needs, and I love integrating what I’m learning in my teaching degree into the way I care for and engage with kids. Whether it’s bedtime stories, arts and crafts, outdoor play, tutoring, or helping with routines and transitions, I bring energy, empathy, and structure to every family I work with. I’d love to support your family, whether you need a dependable date-night sitter or more regular help. I’m happy to provide references and look forward to connecting!

Hello Parents, I’m currently available for occasional babysitting and part-time childcare in Oakland. My childcare journey began in 2009, when I worked as an Au Pair in the Netherlands for a wonderful family with a seven-year-old boy and a nine-year-old girl. After moving to the U.S. in 2011, I continued babysitting and have since gained experience with infants, multiples, and school-age children. Beyond keeping kids safe and supported, I focus on modeling kindness, curiosity, and respect. I enjoy supporting children as they build confidence, independence, and thoughtfulness. I have extensive experience with infants, babies (including multiples), toddlers, and school-age children. My most recent long-term childcare role was in 2021, caring for a one-year-old baby girl. Since then, I’ve continued babysitting regularly and maintaining long-term relationships with families. I’ve studied Child Development at Merritt College in Oakland, hold a Bachelor’s degree in Advertising with a minor in Cinema, and recently completed my MBA. Outside of work, I’m a brown belt in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu and enjoy walking, roller skating, playing music, reading, and watching movies. I’d love to meet your family and provide thoughtful, reliable care for your children. Thank you!
