Hello, parents! I have moved back to Oakland after living in San Jose for almost ten years and I am working full time as a toddler teacher. I have experience working as a transitional kindergarten teacher, nanny, floater teacher, preschool aide and teacher, a school-age daycare teacher and family daycare assistant and have done some babysitting. I also have experience taking care of my nephews and cousins as well. My rate is $25 to $35 per hour and I might be available on some weekends, too for babysitting. I am first aid/CPR certified, I also have a child development teacher permit as well as a bachelor's degree of Human Development with an Early Childhood Development option from Cal State University East Bay. I love working with children because they are fun to play with and be around. Thank you and looking forward to meeting you and your children.

Hi, I’m Antonia. I have worked as a nanny for 17+ years and am a mother of three boys, ages 14, 5, and 10 months. I am currently looking for a new family to work with, ideally caring for a child between 0–3 years old alongside my youngest son. I truly enjoy working with children and becoming a supportive part of a family’s daily life. I am experienced in helping children through developmental and behavioral milestones, including sleep and nap routines, eating habits, sharing and taking turns, potty training, and preparing for preschool. I love spending time outdoors with kids and enjoy taking them to parks, playgrounds, and the library for play, learning, and socialization. I speak three languages: English, Spanish, and Mam (a Guatemalan language). Over the years, I have worked with more than 10 families, and I still stay in contact with nearly all of them. References are available upon request. I am also open to a nanny share and flexible on rates and hours, as long as the overall arrangement meets my family’s needs. In addition, I have participated in my own nanny shares with each of my three boys when they were infants, and I can provide references from the families I worked with during those arrangements. I am available to start anytime.

My background also includes roles as an au pair, tutor, teacher, and camp counselor, giving me a well-rounded foundation for connecting with kids of all ages. Please feel free to book any open time on my calendar, as I keep it updated regularly. For any questions, don’t hesitate to send me a message. I look forward to meeting you and your family! Booking Policies: --4-hour minimum booking --I’m not available for phone interviews but happy to schedule an in-person working interview if you want to meet before booking for a longer gig.

My name is Maria Elena, but I go by Elena. I’m originally from El Salvador and have been living in the Bay Area for 33 years. I am a single mother to an almost 14-year-old boy. I have many years of experience working with children—over eight years as a nanny before my son was born and as part of a nanny share since he was six months old. I truly enjoy spending time with children by reading, doing fun activities, and being outdoors. I love taking kids to the zoo, Fairyland, parks, and library story times. In my free time, I enjoy cooking and reading. I have taken many child development classes, and last year I graduated with a degree in Child Development.
