Find nannies in Albany, CA

Hi! My name is Megan. Urban Sitter used to be my full time job while I was in grad school. Since then-- I've lived a lot of life and had a couple babies of my own. I have twin girls who are 3 and boy who is 6. Babysitting has been my passion my whole life and raising my children is a dream come true. I have a lot of experience, both personal and professional in child care and I am passionate about keeping your kids safe and happy while I am with them. Its an honor to be trusted with your children and I look forward to meeting you!

Hello, I’m Lieu’Miya! I’ve been caring for children since I was 16 and truly enjoy supporting their growth and curiosity. Over the years I’ve worked with multiple families, including caring for infants and toddlers, which has made me very comfortable with different routines and developmental stages. I’m currently a 19-year-old college student working toward becoming an engineer, so I naturally enjoy problem solving and finding creative ways to keep kids curious, engaged, and learning. I’m patient, calm, and very adaptable to different personalities and routines. Many people describe me as confident and hilarious (pfft!) as I bring positive energy while also creating a safe and steady environment for kids. I’m naturally kind, attentive, and emotionally aware, which helps me build strong, trusting relationships. I love getting kids outside for parks, walks, and little adventures, but I’m just as happy doing crafts, reading together, or winding down with quiet activities at home. I truly enjoy encouraging curiosity, kindness, and creativity, and I always adjust my approach to meet each child’s individual needs. More than happy to help with light tidying, meals, and some housework as I can understand the need for help! I personally love to clean and keep the place in shape for you. This is my first year using this platform, and I’m excited about the opportunity to connect. I’m currently looking for one-time and part-time options. I hope to work with you and your family soon :)

Hello families! I love working with children and am looking for babysitting opportunities with kids of any age! I enjoy spending time with kids doing crafts, reading stories at bedtime, and keeping them happy and safe. Some of my hobbies include photography, singing, knitting, and yoga. I am a graduate of San Francisco State University, where I studied psychology with an emphasis on child development. I have been babysitting since high school and have worked with many local families with kids ages 0-13. I was a tutor for a year at an after school program where I facilitated activities and helped the children with their homework. After graduating college I worked for a year and a half at a group home for kids (ages 6 to 18) who struggled with regulating themselves during stress. One summer I also worked at a pre-school prep where I interacted with kids ages 8 months to 3 years doing activities such as reading, singing, crafts, art and other activities. And then most recently I taught mindfulness for two years at Oakland Public Schools and have been substitute teaching for the past year. I was very active for many years on Urbansitter back when it first started from about 2012 to 2017 and then I took a long break from it to focus on other career goals. Now I’ve decided to make a return to it since I’m on summer break and am hoping to continue with it into the next school year as I plan to be part time with my regular job. I currently live in San Leandro and am willing to go to Oakland, Hayward, Castro Valley, San Francisco and Lafayette. I look forward to hearing from you! Sheena

I just moved to New York for a couple of months. During this time I would love to babysit. I have experience working as a camp counselor where I was responsible for groups of 10 children aged 3 to 5. I learned how to care for all ages and all profiles. I also have experience with babies, I have cared over the past few months for a baby (from when they were a 6 month old to now a 1 year old), caring for them during the day and completing their night time routine. Tasks I did: help with lunch, assure safety at all times, respect a tight schedule, be alert and observant of all children always, motivate children to do what they have to get done (eg. Drinking water, brushing teeth), play games and engage conversations,keep parents informed of any problems asap, … I have also done overnight babysitting for a regular family (multiple days/ nights without parents) and gotten children ready for bed & school in the morning. I am one of four siblings and have two younger brothers. Both of which I have spent a lot of time with and caring for, from diaper cleaning to helping with homework. Outside of my family, I have taken care of multiple children in New York, Paris, London and San Francisco. A non-exhaustive list of tasks I have done: walking with children from school to home, helping with homework, playing board games, waking up and getting ready for school, morning and evening hygiene tasks, putting children to bed, reading with them, outside walks to the park, planning cultural outings. In addition, I can do house cleaning tasks, prepare basic and healthy meals, and take care of cats. I am a french native and I can help with oral practice and homework. I have experience with family seniors that are physically impaired with general help and hygiene. Overall, I believe that every child is unique, special and has particular needs. I am respectful and responsible and will prioritise any tasks assigned. I have always been around young children and I love seeing them evolve.

My name is Lynda, I am 24 years old, and I have been working as a preschool teacher for the past 2 years. I am passionate about working with children and supporting their development in a safe and nurturing environment. I also studied midwifery, where I completed several internships that gave me hands-on experience with newborns and young children. This background has helped me build strong skills in childcare from an early age. I have cared for children in over 40 families, including 9 regular families that I worked with consistently. I also provided long-term care for one child for 1. 5 years, 4 days a week, building a strong and trusting relationship with both the child and the family. I am patient, caring, and responsible. I always make sure children feel safe, happy, and engaged by offering age-appropriate activities that support their creativity and independence. I would love the opportunity to care for your children and support your family's daily needs
