Shirley 2 reviews
$30 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Moraga, CA

Hi! My name is Shirley. I’m a bilingual (English/Spanish) Registered Nurse based in Berkeley, offering dependable part-time, backup, and date-night childcare. As both a nurse and a mom to a 13-month-old, I understand how important it is to find someone you can completely trust with your child. My goal is to provide a safe, nurturing, and engaging environment while following your family’s established routines and parenting preferences. I enjoy planning age-appropriate activities that encourage learning through play, including library story times, outdoor adventures, sensory play, music, crafts, and trips to local parks and zoos. I believe in fostering independence, kindness, and confidence while supporting each child’s social, emotional, and developmental growth. My background as a Registered Nurse, along with my BLS, ACLS, and Neonatal Resuscitation (NRP) certifications, allows me to provide an added level of safety and confidence for families. I’m also the oldest of five siblings and have years of experience caring for children of all ages. I’m available for occasional, recurring part-time, and backup care. My standard rate is $26/hour. For day time care and families who are comfortable with my well-socialized 13-month-old joining us, I offer a discounted rate of $24/hour, providing a wonderful opportunity for age-appropriate parallel play and social interaction. I’d love the opportunity to get to know your family and discuss how I can best support your childcare needs. I look forward to connecting with you! — Shirley

“Shirley is incredible! Super professional and very charismatic! She knows exactly what she’s doing, would hire again!”

Carmen $50 per hour for 1 child

Hi families! My name is Carmen, and I am a passionate, loving, energetic, and experienced professional nanny with 12 years of childcare experience! Caring for children has been so much more than a career for me since 2014. It is truly something I love and take pride in every single day! My childcare background began at Corpus Christi School in Piedmont, where I worked as the After-School Care Director and later as a Kindergarten Assistant before transitioning into full-time nannying. Over the years, I’ve had the pleasure of caring for children of all ages, from newborns and infants to toddlers and school-aged children. I pride myself on creating a safe, nurturing, structured, and stimulating environment where children feel loved, supported, and encouraged to explore the world around them. I have extensive knowledge of childhood developmental milestones and enjoy incorporating age-appropriate activities that promote cognitive development, language acquisition, sensory exploration, motor skills, independence, and social-emotional growth. Beyond childcare, I understand the importance of providing families with reliability, consistency, open communication, and peace of mind. I strive to be someone parents can genuinely trust and depend on while creating a warm, positive environment for their little ones. One of the most rewarding parts of my career has been the lifelong relationships I’ve built with the families I’ve worked with. To me, nannying is so much more than simply showing up to work. It’s becoming a trusted, valued extension of a family. I still maintain close relationships with many of my previous families, and watching their children grow throughout the years has been one of my greatest joys! I am CPR certified, fully vaccinated, and have an extensive list of wonderful references who would be more than happy to share their experiences working with me. I look forward to connecting with a wonderful family and hopefully becoming a special part of your little one’s journey!

Itzell $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi there! I'm Itzell. I currently work full-time as a Registered Nurse, specializing in clinic telephone triage, and I am looking to provide caregiving services for some side income. I am available for both childcare and adult care. When it comes to babysitting, I have 2 years of formal, paid experience caring for younger family members. In addition to childcare, I am highly qualified to offer adult care services, drawing on my professional healthcare background. I worked for 3 dedicated years as a Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) before spending the last 3 years in my current practice as an RN. On a personal level, I am a very friendly, easygoing, and approachable person. I know how important it is to find the right caregiver for your loved ones, and I would love to meet up to see if we're a good fit for each other!

Alex $22 per hour for 1 child

Hi my name is Alex, I have been working at a daycare for the past 2 years and I absolutely love working with kids of all ages. I love the one on one time with the kids the most and that is why I am looking for a change of pace. I absolutely love the great outdoors and doing creative things to help further the children’s development. I’ve been wanting to spend more one on one time with a few kids at a time so that I can really connect with them and watch them grow as little humans.

"We were incredibly grateful that Maya was able to help us out with a last-minute childcare emergency. She matched our 9-year-old's energy with arts & crafts, some quiet reading, and a walk around the neighborhood. We'd have Maya back in a heartbeat!"
