Booked by 1 family in San Leandro, CA

Hi families! My name is Lucianne, and I’ve been a Montessori teacher for the past 8 years. I currently work at a Montessori school, where I support children in learning with curiosity, independence, and kindness every day. I truly enjoy spending time with kids—whether that’s helping with homework, exploring creative activities, or simply having fun together. I know how important it is for parents to feel at ease, so I always bring patience, responsibility, and a caring attitude. My goal is to create a safe, positive, and engaging environment where your children feel happy and supported while you have peace of mind.

Albina Oakland
$30 per hour for 1 child

Hello! I hold a BA in child development with a minor in Spanish, and my journey has been deeply fulfilling. While completing my bachelor's degree, I had the privilege of working at San Jose State's child development center, where I learned so much about nurturing young minds. After that, I returned to Oakland and joined a wonderful non-profit called Blue Skies for Children. There, I poured my heart into creating a loving and supportive environment in the classroom, always striving to redirect children with kindness. One of the most valuable lessons I learned during my time there was the importance of how we communicate with children, guiding them through their daily experiences with empathy and understanding. When the pandemic struck, it forced me to rethink my career path during such uncertain times, which led me to embrace a role in nannying. I have experience with children of all ages, including newborns, but I have a special passion for working with little ones aged five and under but I have worked with all ages. I truly believe that this period is crucial for their development, and I feel honored to play a part in helping them grow into the remarkable individuals they are destined to become. Currently, I am employed full-time, but I do have some flexibility in my schedule for evening care or date nights, and I would love to lend a helping hand when needed.
