Find nannies in Alameda, CA

I am a mother of two boys, a 15 and 13 year old. My wonderful loving 15 year old has Autism. Having a child on the spectrum has taught me a lot of patience, the importance of consistency and the value of attention to details. I am also currently a substitute aide at OUSD.

I bring over 20 years of experience supporting seniors, and it remains one of the most meaningful parts of my life. I’ve cared for adults ages 65 to 95, including those managing chronic conditions and individuals with MS during flare periods. My support has included meal preparation, companionship, organizing the home, medication reminders, maintaining schedules, transportation, and doctor visits. I’m also experienced in coordinating outside care when a family needs additional support. I’ve provided occasional overnights as well. Families describe me as calm, reliable, and someone who brings dignity and steadiness to the home. In addition to senior care, I have two decades of experience supporting adults with disabilities. My approach is patient, respectful, and focused on helping people stay as independent as possible while providing safety, structure, and encouragement. I also care for pets. I’ve supported dog and cat owners when they are out of town or unavailable for a full day—sometimes for up to three days. This includes feeding, walks, litter care, and companionship. I also have long-term experience caring for children. My earliest childcare was with infants in the late ’90s, followed by four years volunteering with toddlers in Sunday school and three and a half years of every-other-weekend care for young children. I have additional experience with kids ages 9–12, helping with routines, homework, and creative activities. Families appreciate that I am warm, organized, easy to work with, and a grounding presence across all ages and needs.

Dear Family, I hope you are doing well. My name is Samantha, and I am reaching out to express my interest in providing care and support for your family. I have experience working with infants and children from 6 months up to the age of 12. I am CPR and First Aid certified and comfortable caring for up to two children at a time. For the past 4 years, I’ve had the joy of caring for children of different ages. Work history includes 2 years of nanny experience, and 2 years of Au pair. My most recent experience, I cared for a family of 2 and came in when the first child was 6 months old and the youngest was 14 months when I left. For Au pairing, I came in when the youngest child was 4yrs old and the oldest was 12. These positions have given me valuable experience caring for children and adapting to their daily routines and needs. I am an easy going, patient, friendly, and confident person. An effective communicator and believe in communication is key. I pride myself in communicating with family in-person, via text or phone call to ensure clear understanding of household rules and a safe, structured, loving environment. With my experience, I will bring an unforgettable support to your lovely family by providing reliable, attentive care while fostering your children’s emotional, social, and developmental growth. Thank you for your time and consideration. I will love the opportunity to discuss how I can support your family and look forward to hearing from you. Warm regards, Samantha.

Hi! I’m Bradleys, a calm and responsible babysitter with CPR & First Aid certification (American Heart Association – BLS Provider). I specialize in infant care and prioritize safety, routines, and trust. Available mornings (8am–1pm), Monday–Friday. I speak Spanish and some English, and I’m focused on creating a peaceful and secure environment for your baby.

Hello! I’m a 23-year-old childcare professional and college student currently studying Child and Adolescent Psychology at College of Alameda. I also work as a kindergarten teacher in the mornings, where I support early childhood development through structured learning, patience, and engaging care. I joined UrbanSitter to expand my experience with more personalized, one-on-one care, allowing me to better support each child’s unique needs, personality, and growth. I prioritize creating a safe, nurturing, and developmentally enriching environment while also making sure children feel comfortable, confident, and genuinely cared for. I am CPR certified, have a valid driver’s license, and reliable transportation. I’m highly dependable, attentive, and experienced in managing routines, transitions, and age-appropriate activities. In addition to childcare, I also offer pet care services, as I’m very comfortable with animals and enjoy incorporating that same level of attentiveness and care. My availability is flexible outside of my morning teaching schedule. I welcome both planned and last-minute bookings whenever possible—please feel free to reach out to discuss your family’s needs!
