Find nannies in Berkeley, CA

Hi there! I’m Soha :) Unfortunately, my original profile was deactivated (along with my 5 star rating and 30+ families) but I have over a decade of experience providing regular childcare to families of infants, toddlers (my fave age group), and even teenagers! Happy to provide reviews and references from several former and current parents I babysit for :) I absolutely love babysitting and in the past several years, I have made it my goal to ensure every family I’ve ever had a gig or regular babysitting job for (about several dozen.. and counting!) receives the best childcare! I am available to babysit for date-nights, events, or any occasion that requires a night out! I don’t mind last minute requests so if you have an emergency or cancellation, I am happy to help and often consider myself an “on demand babysitter” for a lot of families that need a same-day, or even same-hour babysitter! Aside from being a babysitter, I have worked in the legal field for several years. Prior to being a litigation paralegal, I worked in corporate law and legal operations. I also volunteer as a crisis counselor for CrisisTextLine and as a Coach for SoccerShots. Most of my jobs required a lot of emotional energy and empathy, but were extremely gratifying and gave me valuable experience, training to tackle any type of emergency, and a very basic, but universal, understanding of humans. I’ve loved babysitting since I first started using UrbanSitter back in college - it really helped me connect with families, and that connection and confidence as a babysitter is really important and gratifying!

Hello my name is Adriana and I'm from Caracas, Venezuela. I speak Spanish and English fluently. After high school I studied at a culinary school. I love food and cooking in general. After working in Venezuela in some kitchens I decided to come to US as an au pair, to learn the language, and more about this country and culture. Also I love kids, they are adorable and funny. So I knew that being an au pair would be a great. opportunity and experience for me. So, I came to the SF bay area (Novato) in 2008 untll 2010. I was an au pair living with a great american family taking care 2 boys. They were 4 and 1 years old when I got there. I was responsible for them for 45 hours a week while my host parents were at work. My duties include making their meals, laundry, homework, etc. I also played with them, read books to them, and participated in their daily activities. It was a great experience. After 2 years as an aupair. I started working as a nanny with an awesome family in Dubouce Triangle, taking care 1 boy (5 year old) and 1 girl (3 years old) also 45 hours a week. After being an live in nanny I stared to work ocationally eith kids. I have worked with all ages. I like all kids but my favorites are infants and todlers. I am currently taking care of a seven months old baby two days a week, and am available for occasional night or weekends. I am flexible with my schedule, (given at least two day's notice), and am always looking for extra hours, so please feel free to contact me! Also I'm animal lover so if you have a dog, cat, fish, snake, lizard, mouse, or whatever I'll be totally ok.... ;) NOTE: For ocatinal nanny share. the rate is $25 per family p/hr.

Dear family : Thanks for taking the time to read my profile. I'm Jenny (Yanli), a college student at UC Berkeley currently. It's the 10-year babysitting experience that taught me self-parenting and to stay curious about everything. It's fun to explore new things and keep learning. From this mindset, my journey started at Berkeley Adult School for basic English in 2016 as an au pair, and then Berkeley City College for psychology& cognitive science from 2[removed](part-time), and now at UC Berkeley for Philosophy of Mind (2024-2026). While I'm in school, it's the love from the kids and parents that inspires me to move forward and keep learning. Now, I come back to play with kids since I miss the nature of kids and have extra time in my last semester in 2026 spring. Having taught kids art, acrylic painting, and DIY paper craft through this 10-year journey, I'm eager to keep exploring the creativity kids naturally have. I used to be an au Pair in 2016-2017 after I got training in New Jersey for one week about babysitting, as well as a CPR certificate and a first aid certificate from the American Red Cross. Regarding personality and lifestyle, I'm a big fan of yoga, love art so much. I'd love to go to nature with kids, do yoga together, and visit museums. Happy to share what I'd like to do with kids: 1. It's my great pleasure to teach yoga to kids if kids are interested in it. ( I'm a certified 200-hour yoga instructor from Yoga Alliance) 2. Paper craft, including origami paper craft and DIY holiday cards. 3. Acrylic painting with kids. ( I'm a self-taught acrylic painter who sells my artwork in Berkeley) 4. Read and teach art education, for instance, warm color, cold color, and color wheels. ( I self-taught to be a UX designer) 5. Teach Mandarin and Chinese songs. More artwork, welcome to visit my personal artwork showcase, designed by me.[removed] Also share I have a valid CA driver's licence and good records. Currently, I'm looking for a part-time job. Thanks for reading. I can't wait to talk to you in person. How about starting a video call soon? Have a nice day!

Hi! My name is Wendy. I’m a 24-year-old Oakland native (turning 25 this year) with over 5 years of childcare experience and a deep passion for supporting children and families. I am also a proud mom to a six-month-old baby, which has strengthened my patience, attentiveness, and understanding of how important trust and communication are when caring for someone’s child. I recently completed two years as an AmeriCorps Student Support Specialist at an OUSD elementary school, where I provided behavior support, social-emotional support, and math interventions for students ages 4–12. I worked closely with teachers, administrators, and school psychologists to help students feel supported and successful. Following that role, I worked at Lodestar High School supporting students with diverse and more intensive behavioral and academic needs. That experience strengthened my skills in behavior management, de-escalation strategies, structured routines, and individualized support. I bring many years of babysitting experience through UrbanSitter, caring for children ages 1–16, along with hands-on newborn experience through my extended family and now as a mother. I am fluent in English and Spanish and come from a large extended family, which has shaped my nurturing and adaptable personality. I am committed to creating a safe, structured, and loving environment where children can thrive. I prioritize clear communication with families about routines, meals, and expectations because I understand that every family has unique parenting styles and needs. In addition to childcare, I also have experience and offer house sitting and pet sitting services for cats and dogs. I also have a background in housekeeping, so maintaining a clean and organized home is always part of my care. In my free time, I enjoy hiking and rock climbing and staying active outdoors. I look forward to supporting your family and providing dependable, thoughtful care for your children and home.
