Hi families! I’m Diamond, a proud Bay Area native and someone who has always had a natural love for caring for children. While I currently work in the legal field, caring for children has remained a meaningful part of my life for over 15 years, and it’s something I genuinely look forward to doing in my evenings and weekends. My experience with children started at a young age as a babysitter and grew into working for daycares and becoming a personal nanny for several wonderful families while I was in college. Over the years, I’ve had the opportunity to care for children from newborns all the way through their teenage years, and I truly enjoy getting to know each child and learning what makes them feel comfortable, happy, and cared for. Since 2019, I’ve also had the privilege of serving as a Special Court Advocate (CASA) for abused and neglected foster youth in the San Francisco Bay Area. Being a CASA has strengthened my passion for advocating for children and has taught me the importance of patience, compassion, consistency, and creating a safe space where children feel heard and valued. One of my favorite things about childcare is watching children grow and being someone they can feel comfortable around. In fact, many of the children I’ve cared for over the years have become like family to me. I don’t take that trust lightly. I believe in treating every child the way I would want my own children to be treated—with kindness, patience, respect, and genuine care. I also understand that every family is different. I’m happy to follow the routines and guidelines that are important to you, whether that means sticking to a bedtime routine, limiting screen time, accommodating dietary restrictions or allergies, helping with homework, or simply making sure your little one has a fun and engaging evening. My goal is for parents to feel completely comfortable and confident when they leave their children in my care. You shouldn’t have to wonder if your children are safe, happy, or being well cared for; I want you to have peace of mind knowing they’re in good hands. I would love the opportunity to become a trusted part of your family’s support system and, most importantly, to make sure your little ones feel safe, seen, and cared for while you’re away. ❤️
Hello! I’m Celia Gutierrez – your warm and reliable bilingual nanny! I’m based in San Leandro and have been caring for children since 2019. I’m fluent in both Spanish and English, and I specialize in working with newborns, infants, and toddlers. Caring for children isn’t just a job for me—it’s a true passion. I love creating joyful, nurturing environments where little ones feel safe, supported, and happy. Every child is unique, and I take pride in learning their routines, interests, and needs. I help maintain consistent schedules, keep play and rest areas tidy, organize toys, and plan fun, engaging activities—from arts and crafts to outdoor play and nature walks. My goal is always to bring a sense of calm, structure, and positive energy to every day. A few things parents appreciate about me: • CPR & First Aid Certified • Basic Sign Language • Clean driving record & reliable personal vehicle • Excellent references from past families • Bilingual in Spanish & English for added communication and learning If you’re looking for a trustworthy, nurturing caregiver who will treat your child like family, I’d love to connect and see how I can support your household.
“Celia is a very sweet, calm and patient babysitter. She got along immediately with my 4 yr old daughter and kept her entertained playing games and with arts/crafts. Celia is also very flexible and easy to communicate with. I will definitely have her back again!”
My name is Rocio. I am bilingual in English and Spanish and have over 15 years of experience working with children of all ages. I am CPR, First Aid, and AED certified and can provide excellent references upon request. Caring for children has always been my passion. Throughout my career, I have worked in both professional educational settings and as a nanny, helping children grow, learn, and feel safe and supported. I pride myself on building strong, trusting relationships with children and their families. Many of the children I have cared for have remained an important part of my life, and I am honored by the bonds we have created over the years. Families describe me as nurturing, reliable, patient, energetic, and highly engaging. I love creating fun, meaningful experiences for children while also providing structure, consistency, and encouragement. Whether it’s helping with homework, planning activities, exploring outdoors, or simply being a trusted adult in a child’s life, I genuinely love what I do. In my free time, I enjoy hiking with my dog, spending time with family, and being outdoors. I am outgoing, cheerful, and bring positive energy wherever I go.
“Our kids ask Rocio to come back every day. That tells one a lot - kids are picky (at least mine 3&5 year old)”
Hi I’m Alexis and I’m from Oakland! I am currently taking a gap year from UC Berkeley while getting my certifications to become a certified personal trainer. During my free time I enjoy weight lifting, reading, baking, and anything music related. I also love animals, especially dogs :) I have 2+ years experience working with school aged kids through internships such as summer camps and at Highland Hospital. Moreover, I have 1.5 years experience as a babysitter/nanny. I’m also the oldest sibling in my family with a pretty big age gap between my siblings and I, so I grew up taking care of them very often! I am also CPR/AED certified. I believe it’s important to create a safe, stimulating, and stable environment for all children. As a result, I deeply value clear communication and empathy in a work space. Please reach out if you have any questions :)
Hi families! My name is Lacey, and I’ve been working with children for 6 years! The last 2 years, I’ve worked as a full-time nanny for two different families, and I currently nanny Monday–Thursday while attending school for pre-med. I have the most experience with babies and little ones ages 6 months to 6 years, but I’m comfortable with other ages as well! I genuinely love working with kids and being someone families can count on. I’m CPR certified, have taken babysitting and childcare classes, and am a safe, reliable driver with my own vehicle. I’m happy to help with just about anything, including meal prep, bedtime and bath routines, homework, school pickups, driving to activities, and keeping the kids entertained with crafts, outdoor play, and other fun activities. Since I already work as a nanny, I understand how important it is to find someone you trust with your children. I always do my best to follow your family’s routines, keep you updated, and make sure your little ones feel safe and comfortable with me. I’m mainly available for date nights, evenings, weekends, and occasional babysitting outside my regular nanny schedule. I’d love to meet your family and see if we’re a good fit! 🤍
