Find infant babysitters in Alameda, CA

My name is Nadia! I’m a babysitter with experience caring for children ages 2-12. I believe in the importance of listening and talking to children, without talking “down” to them. My warm and communicative approach creates positive experiences for the kids and cooperative care-taking relationships. That’s why when I worked at a summer day-camp for 4-11yo children learning English in my hometown, there was popular demand from children and their parents for me to be on-site every day. I helped ease children’s separation anxiety and made them feel comfortable and confident in an unfamiliar environment. Originally scheduled to work just 4 days over the summer, I ended up as a full-time aide. Some of my favorite activities to do with kids are baking and reading stories. I also have a good track record of getting children involved in simple, age-appropriate chores (e.g., making the bed) in a way that feels fun. I can provide references, including from parents who can attest to my ability to care for multiple kids at once. I also have extensive teaching and tutoring experience, and would be happy to provide homework help: - I have experience tutoring pre-k, elementary school, and high school students in reading, math, and test prep. - I have two years of experience as an instructor at UC Berkeley, and another three years of experience mentoring college students. - I speak English, French, Arabic, and a bit of Spanish. I love to encourage children’s multilingualism and can help with foreign language homework. I’m confident with preparing meals and snacks. I previously was a head chef at a student co-op, where my dinners got rave reviews. I still get recipe requests from former co-opers (especially my hummus recipe!). I’m happy to bring these skills to your children’s snack time. I try to incorporate learning experiences into my caregiving, and I especially enjoy working with families who value curiosity and learning. I was a National Merit Scholar in undergrad, and I recently graduated with my PhD in a social science discipline from UC Berkeley. I have a full time job scheduled to start in 2027. Until then, you can hire a (non-medical) doctor for a discount.

Grew up taking care of my younger sister while both my parents worked long hours. Worked for healthcare system backoffice software for the last decade. Looking to make a bigger community impact and help real people outside the healthcare system. I'm extremely patient and work well with all sorts of personalities, albeit I can be a little bit awkward sometimes. I love fixing things and getting into the details. Always happy to listen to people's stories.

Hello everyone my name is Halle, I am 22 years old and I am currently attending CSUEB for my bachelor’s and aspiring to become a teacher! I am a personal assistant for a business owner, where my responsibilities range from many thing like running errands, cleaning, and child care.

Hi! My name is Jess. I'm 31 years old and love working with kids. My mom was a kindergarten teacher growing up, so I was always a booked babysitter and carried on to be a part-time nanny to multiple families through my 20s. I've been working in tech as a UX designer in SF for the past 6+ years (Georgia Tech graduate in 2017), but I was part of a recent lay-off, so I'm looking for some part-time babysitting or nannying again! I live in North Beach and have a flexible schedule! Comfortable with multiple kids and all genders. Being around kids energizes me - I love being part of their world. I love animals, music, fashion, and travel!
