Booked by 5 families in Alameda, CA

Hello families! I’ve been a nanny for six years, I have experience in childcare since I was 18 years old, in my home country and here. I worked with many families in the area and I volunteer with school support in the past, I had 4 dogs and 2 cats myself so I love pets and if you have pets that is great, we will get along too. I’m currently working full time with a family and we have been together almost three years on this journey and they will be happy to share a recommendation for you. My goal is for your kids to have a nice time together as we play and learn safely and for you to trust they’re in good hands, I would love the parents to communicate any particular details, needs, even if it is small, a house rule, about the kids, if it’s important for you I’ll do my best. 🤍 excited to meet you!

“Luz was great, would recommend her!”

Hannah $30 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I'm Hannah. I grew up in Santa Rosa and moved to San Francisco in August of 2024. I have a bachelor's degree in environmental and ocean sciences from the University of San Diego and I recently started working as an office engineer in construction. I happily nannied part time for a family for the last two years while living here in San Francisco. Since taking on a new role in the office I can no longer meet their scheduling needs, though I still babysit for them occasionally and formed a very close bond with their girls. I love spending time with kids and I'm trying to make some extra money to save in addition to my office job. I'd love to take on occasional babysitting roles. Please don't hesitate to reach out to chat or with any questions :)
