Find nannies in Oakland, CA

My name is Lori and I hold a Bachelor’s degree in Early Childhood Development. I have always had a deep love for working with children and a passion for helping them learn and grow. Throughout my studies and experiences, I have developed strong skills in creating supportive, engaging, and nurturing environments where children can thrive.

I graduated in 2024 with a degree in Liberal Studies, with a strong focus on education and child development. I currently work as an English Literacy Interventionist, where I support students in building reading and writing skills through personalized, engaging instruction. I bring over 6 years of babysitting experience, along with 1.5 years working in a daycare setting caring for both infants and toddlers. In the daycare, I was responsible for supervising up to four infants or six toddlers at a time, ensuring a safe, structured, and nurturing environment. My experience extends beyond traditional classrooms, as I’ve worked in a variety of nontraditional teaching and caregiving settings. This has helped me become adaptable, patient, and attentive to each child’s unique needs. I prioritize creating a safe, educational, and fun environment where children feel comfortable, supported, and confident relying on me as a trusted adult. I also have experience caring for both dogs and cats during babysitting jobs and genuinely enjoy being around pets.

Hello, I am an experienced caregiver that also has experience in behavior and academic tutoring. I have taken care of children within a range of needs including those that are neurodivergent. I am very passionate about teaching adaptive and academic skills.

I am excited to support a household as a dedicated nanny. With four years of experience managing multi-child families ranging from newborns to ten-year-olds, I bring a proactive, calm, and highly organized approach to everyday childcare. As a university lecturer, active filmmaker, and community storyteller, I bring fun, creativity, and organization to my role as a nanny. My background includes caring for a family with two children across the toddler to ten-year-old spectrum, as well as a family with three children spanning from newborn to ten years old. Managing households with wide age gaps has given me a deep understanding of varied developmental milestones. I am adept at balancing complex schedules, whether that means managing newborn feeding and nap routines while simultaneously supervising a ten-year-old’s homework and creative projects. Beyond safety and logistics, my focus is on fostering an environment of curiosity, emotional stability, and engaging daily activities tailored to each child's interests. I pride myself on clear communication, reliability, and adapting to a family’s unique culture so you can focus entirely on your endeavors with complete peace of mind. I would welcome the opportunity to connect and discuss how my childcare background can best serve your family.

Hi there! My name is Grace, I grew up on an island in the Puget Sound. I’ve spent the past 5 years working in tech and now am looking into a new career path. I have a 5 year old niece who I have watched regularly throughout her infant life, and have a history of babysitting and nannying throughout high school and college. I’m great with kids, dogs, and cats! I love to spend time at home and play games, watch movies, or spend time in the many local parks or on long walks. Looking forward to meeting you and your family!
