Booked by 5 families in Brisbane, CA

Hello! I’m Berkeley I have been working as a nanny, full and part time for 20 yrs. 15 of those years in San Francisco. I’ve truly enjoyed working with so many wonderful families and their cool kids over the years! Currently looking for a variety of work opportunities with new families. In addition to childcare, I’m also available for pet care and house sitting, and household services. Particularly good at keeping homes tidy, organizing, and helping in the kitchen. Experience with premature babies through 12 years old. The last 10 years almost exclusively with multiple children, siblings and twins. Mostly newborns and toddlers. The majority of jobs I’ve had started in infancy and transitioned into toddler years. My childcare style is patient, kind, calm. I have a solid understanding of developmental stages, age appropriate activities, and assistance in reaching learning milestones. Strong emphasis on communication and safety! I’m accustomed to the responsibilities of outings and activities, playdates, getting kids to the park is a favorite. I especially like being helpful in the kitchen with cooking and food prep. Used to handling kids laundry, bottle cleaning and sanitation, meal preparation, toy cleanup, keeping home tidy. Also happy to help out with light pet care around the house. Staying organized and adhering to schedules. Thank you in advance for your consideration! Sincerely, Berkeley B

“Berkeley was an incredible nanny for our little one, from when he was about 6 months old to one year old. She’s extremely punctual, reliable, communicative, and tidy— and most importantly, so sweet and attentive with our baby. Going back to work was so hard, but Berkeley made that transition so much easier. We hope to see her again for random babysitting, etc.!”

Hi! My name is Jadesola and I am a CPR certified, new grad RN with my BSN. I am offering childcare and household services. I love working with children. I have over 4 years of experience working as a teachers assistant at the Early Childhood Education Center with a focus in toddlers and preschool age children and additional experience caring for infants. Some of my responsibilities included nap-time routines, engaging in crafts, diapering/potty assistance, snack preparation, maintaining a clean and safe environment, and supervising and engaging in lots of play! I’m also comfortable caring for older children. I can cook and clean and enjoy baking, jewelry making and crafty things in general. While I don’t drive, I can easily commute to your location and assist with walking-distance or public transit pick-ups if needed. I’d love the opportunity to help your child grow, thrive, and feel supported; whether we’re creating art, baking cookies, going to the park or just having a fun afternoon together!

Booked by 8 families in Brisbane, CA

Hi! My name is Eileen and I am so excited to work with you and your family! I have worked with children in a variety of roles from being a camp counselor, camp director, preschool teacher, and an elementary school teacher. Depending upon what you are looking for in a nanny, I can provide support in many areas. I look forward to working with your children and creating magical memories! Please note that my fiancé is immune compromised, and as such, I am unable to sit for any children who are sick. I have to be super careful since any illness could lead to time in the hospital for him. Thank you for your consideration!

“Eileen was aaaaaaaamazing! I gave little instruction and she knew exactly what needed to be done. Enthusiastic, helpful, lively. Would definitely hire again and again. Thank you so much, Eileen!!”

Booked by 10 families in Brisbane, CA

Hello! My name is Marisol and I am currently a full-time Community Health Outreach Worker in SFUSD. I have a Bachelor’s of Art degree in Social Welfare from the University of California, Berkeley along with a minor in Gender and Women’s studies. I hope to one day become a social worker and continue working within SFUSD, serving the communities I love! Due to my daytime job, I am only seeking occasional jobs during evenings or on weekends. I have about 10 years of experience working with children in different settings. I began by caring for my own family members while in high school, and with time, branched out to other families within the Bay Area. Over summers, I work as a kindergarten teacher at a day camp where I lesson plan daily for a group of about 15 6-7 year olds. I really enjoy doing arts & crafts, academic support, and assisting youth in exploring their interests. Some of my past responsibilities as a babysitter/nanny have included pick-up/drop-off, going out to local activities, bedtime routines, and light tidying. I am also open to helping run errands! Please feel free to reach out with any questions or just to connect!

“Marisol was attentive and patient with my 19 month old! Would recommend. She even folded clothes and tidied while our little one was napping. ”
