Hello my name is Teri, I was raised in Alameda, I am the second oldest out of 4 children, growing up with 1 older brother an d 2 younger sisters, my youngest sister was born when I was nine so I was introduced to babies at a young age. Raised by a single mom she always instilled in me a strong work ethic. While in high school I had 2 regular babysitting jobs. I worked for 20+ years in the Tech Industry (Medical Devices). As a Supervisor, Analyst and Health & Safety. Senior Care In 2017 I resigned from my job of 17 yrs and relocated to Arizona to live with my ailing father who lost his wife, he needed help with daily activities, cooking, cleaning, shopping, Dr appts. After his passing I moved to Oregon and semi-retired in 2020. Children While in Oregon I took a part time job with KIDSNW as a Personal Support worker. They work with the State to get help for families who have children with disabilities. I was placed with a family who has 7 yr old twins, I helped them with daily activities like dressing, reading, art projects, homework, playing games, playing outside. I also supported the parents with home chores and accompanied them on errands and watched the children on their date nights. Infants and Toddlers I helped a family in Alameda County 2 to 3 times a week for 5 yrs who had new born twins and a 3 yr old, I assisted with bathing, clothing, changing diapers, preparing bottles for the evening and helped parents with household duties. I am currently working with a family that has twins a boy and girl they had just turned 2 when I started with them. My duties are changing diapers, feeding, bathing, reading books, drawing taking them to the park to play they have alot of energy. I also help with household chores. I relocated to Contra Costa County to help out my sister recover after her surgery, now that she is feeling better I would like to resume working part time. My primary interest is finding part time steady work assisting families with young children. In my spare time I like to garden, walk my dog and go to the movies. I am a self-starter motivated person who is easy going, friendly, honest, dependable, respectful, and I like to think I have a good sense of humor. During challenging situations I can act calmly and with patience I am sure my life experience is the reason for this. I hope you will consider me for your child care needs. Best regards, Teri
“Ms. Teri took care of my son in the morning and helped him prepare for preschool while I was conducting conference calls. She was reliable, punctual, responsive, and trustworthy with a high sense of responsibility. My son was excited to see her every time. She even went above and beyond to help us tidy up the kitchen. We feel lucky to have met Teri. I would recommend her!”

Hi, I’m Rachel! I’m in the midst of a career transition and am looking for part time work while I’m in school. I graduated from UC Davis in 2019 and have been working as a UX Designer for the last few years. I’ve recently decided to return to school and pursue my interest in psychology and mental health, in hopes of eventually becoming a therapist. I’ve loved working with kids for as long as I can remember, from playing with my baby cousins in middle school, to working for after school programs and summer camps in high school, to teaching youth ultimate frisbee after college. I’ve worked with children in academic and athletic environments, as well as more traditional in-home babysitting. My priorities are the health and happiness of your children. I love arts and crafts, reading, and spending time outdoors- or whatever your kiddos prefer! I do have a car, and am happy to take your children to activities or appointments. I’m happy to answer any questions and look forward to working with you and your family.
My name is Tami! I’m 38 years old, and a have been working as a nanny over 20 years. I work with so much love. I’m mom of two sweet girls! I have been working as a pet sitter over 3 years. I love animals and spend time with them.
Hi Families! My name is Gaby, and I’m currently offering occasional nanny/babysitting and mother’s helper support for families who need reliable, experienced extra hands. I am a stay-at-home mom and a professional nanny with over 8 years of dedicated childcare experience, specializing in infants and toddlers. Caring for children has always been a true passion of mine, and I’ve had the privilege of building long-term relationships with families who value consistency, trust, and quality care. My caregiving style is Montessori-inspired, with a strong focus on independence, creativity, and emotional security. I prioritize little to no screen time and believe in hands-on, engaging activities that support motor development, language growth, and confidence-building. Our time together often includes sensory play, music, outdoor exploration, practical life skills, and age-appropriate learning experiences. As a mom myself, I deeply understand how important it is to feel fully comfortable with the person caring for your child. I strive to create a calm, nurturing, and structured environment where children feel safe, supported, and genuinely cared for. I am currently available for occasional care, date nights, backup care, and mother’s helper support. I work independently and am committed to providing focused, attentive care tailored to your family’s needs. I look forward to connecting and learning how I can support your family’s needs. Warmly, Gaby
