Flavia 1 review
$32 per hour for 1 child

Hello family, I’m Flavia Martins, from Brazil, and I have been working as nanny for about 14 years. I have a lot of experience with newborn, babies to teenager and experience with kids Autistic, ADHD and Special Needs! I use to drive them around, take them to the park and their activities, meal prep, help with homework and I love to be outside and do arts and crafts with kids! My last job I watched two girls, 10 months an 4yo. I worked for this family for about 2 years and now I'm currently looking for one time job, part time job or/and weekends job. I'm very friendly person, easy going, patient and lovely. I also have two kids of my own, one is 17yo boy and my girl is 13yo! I have a CPR and I'm fluent Portuguese language too. I have good references, if you need too.

Flavia is fantastic all around! She has helped our family several times and is very reliable and dependable. She is excellent with our 3-year old boy and 1-year old girl and they love it when Flavia comes over. Flavia has great positivity and energy and plays very well with the kids. Flavia also communicates very well and is very responsive. Further, she is extremely helpful around the house with any cleaning or chores that could be needed. Highly recommend!

Lana $22 per hour for 1 child

Hi my name is Lana, I am a current sophomore in college. I am majoring in biology and child development as a my minor!! I have two younger siblings, one 7 years old and 11 years old and I’m the oldest cousin in my family. I've helped take care of them when they were infants and toddlers so I have experience with diaper changing, putting them to sleep and most especially playing with them and having fun!! The past 3 summers I have been working with elementary school aged children during summer camp. I typically worked with students from the ages 5-8 years old. I love working with kids and I aspire to have a career that involves working with children.

Hi my name is Selen and I live with my partner Joey and our dog Lulu in the Oakland Hills! We have 8 chickens and 6 quails and I love taking care of all of our animals. I have a 2 year old nephew in Oakland, and I've gained a lot of experience being an active auntie in his life (he also loves my dog Lulu). I'm currently in school for my master's in social work at Samuel Merritt University and looking for part-time work helping families in the neighborhood with their kids, pets, and any other caretaking.
