Find nannies in Oakland, CA

Hi! I’m Britney, 22 years old, with over 5 years of experience caring for children of all ages, from newborns and infants to toddlers and school-aged kids. I’m a caring, patient, and dependable nanny who loves creating a safe, fun, and nurturing environment where children can learn, grow, and feel happy. I have experience with infant care, feeding, nap routines, developmental activities, meal preparation, light housekeeping related to the children, and caring for kids when they’re sick. I also have a reliable car and driving experience. Building trust with both children and parents is very important to me. I believe every family deserves to feel confident knowing their little ones are in loving and responsible hands.

I am a law degree holder with 9 units in Early Childhood Education and several years of experience working with children. My background gives me a unique balance of professionalism, responsibility, and a strong understanding of child development. I truly enjoy supporting children in their growth, whether through educational activities, creative play, or helping them build confidence in their daily routines. I have worked with kids in different age groups and know how important it is to create a safe, positive, and nurturing environment where children feel valued. Families can rely on me to be attentive, patient, and dependable. I enjoy designing activities that are not only fun but also support learning, communication, and social skills. In addition to my academic and caregiving experience, I am creative and resourceful, with skills in social media and content creation. This creativity allows me to keep children engaged with new ideas, games, and projects that spark imagination. I also bring strong organizational skills, attention to detail, and a calm personality that helps me adapt easily to different family needs.

I’m a caring, dependable mom who understands how important it is to find someone you can truly trust with your children. I treat every child in my care with the same patience, attention, and kindness I would want for my own. I’m fluent in both English and Spanish and love creating fun, age-appropriate experiences for kids. Whether it’s an active day at a local park, playing outside, getting creative with crafts and watercolor painting, reading, or enjoying a quiet activity, I’m happy to meet each child where they are. I can also prepare basic meals, help tidy up, and I’m a big animal lover, so pets are no problem! Most importantly, I want parents to have peace of mind knowing their children are safe, happy, cared for, and having a genuinely good time while they’re away.

Hi I’m Maddie and I currently work as an outdoor educator making the transition to classroom teaching this fall. I’ve worked in various childcare environments, finding the most reward from programs that prioritize outdoor experience, hands-on learning, creativity, and play. My interest in working with kids began in high school through various summer nannying and babysitting gigs, support at local in-home daycares and eventually with a local preschool. I’ve spent the past 5 years working in more structured outdoor-based school-year programs and summer camps. Within all of these roles I’ve worked with children of all ages, needs, backgrounds and experiences, allowing for me to have a deep understanding of how to support each child as an individual. I really appreciate being able to connect with all kids, and find great connection with people on the spectrum, or with behavioral needs. When working with kids, I love to find a balance between being energetic and silly with them while still maintaining respect and expectations. As an individual I could be described as silly, loud, and caring, I love spending time outside, doing all sorts of crafts and listening to live music. I am really excited to spend my summer hanging out with some cool kids and have a really flexible schedule. I’m open to consistent opportunities or occasional ones as well. If the fit is right I would also be open to maintaining a relationship into the school year for weeknight or weekend jobs. I am fingerprinted and background checked in CA, have an up to date Adult and Infant CPR and First Aid certification, a Wilderness First Aid certification as well as a Mental Health First Aid certification.

Hello! My name is Aaron. I’m a preschool teacher, former financial advisor, and proud parent of two wonderful kids. I was fortunate to stay home with my daughter during her first three years, which inspired me to earn my early childhood teaching credentials and work as a preschool teacher. I come from a large family in Indiana, where I grew up helping in my grandmother’s Sunday school class and caring for many younger cousins. Over the years, I’ve continued to build experience with children, from teaching in the classroom to recently nannying for two children (ages 2 and 5, one with Autism). Working with children is truly my passion. Families describe me as patient, nurturing, and someone kids connect with easily. My greatest strength is forming strong, positive bonds and creating a calm, joyful environment where children feel safe and supported.
