I have 4 years of experience working in a daycare, caring for multiple children from 18 months to 5 years old. I also have experience caring for twins under 2, a 4-year-old boy, children with special needs, and infants from 4 months to 1.5 years old. I’m responsible, patient, and caring, and I really enjoy working with children and helping them learn and grow. I’m CPR and First Aid certified, a confident swimmer, and a safe driver. I’m comfortable with daily routines, playtime, meals, bath time, and keeping children safe and engaged.
Hi families! My name is Ella and I am a fairly recent grad from Cal Poly Humboldt, who just moved back to the bay area. I have years of experience babysitting and nannying for all ages of kids and genuinely love working with children in all their unique stages. Whether it's keeping little ones entertained, helping with homework, sticking to routines, or simply being a positive and dependable presence, I strive to make every child feel safe, supported, and cared for. I truly understand how important it is for parents to feel confident in their childcare, and I take that responsibility seriously. I enjoy creating fun, engaging experiences while ensuring children's needs and safety always come first. I look forward to connecting with your family!
Hello my name is Teri, I was raised in Alameda, I am the second oldest out of 4 children, growing up with 1 older brother an d 2 younger sisters, my youngest sister was born when I was nine so I was introduced to babies at a young age. Raised by a single mom she always instilled in me a strong work ethic. I worked for 20+ years in the Tech Industry (Medical Devices). As a Supervisor, Analyst and Health & Safety. Senior Care In 2017 I resigned from my job of 17 yrs and relocated to Arizona to live with my ailing father who lost his wife, he needed help with daily activities, cooking, cleaning, shopping, Dr appts. After his passing I moved to Oregon and semi-retired in 2020. Children While in Oregon I took a part time job with KIDSNW as a Personal Support worker. They work with the State to get help for families who have children with disabilities. I was placed with a family who has 7 yr old twins, I helped them with daily activities like dressing, reading, art projects, homework, playing games, playing outside. I also supported the parents with home chores and accompanied them on errands and watched the children on their date nights. Infants and Toddlers I helped a family in Alameda County 2 to 3 times a week for 5 yrs who had new born twins and a 3 yr old, I assisted with bathing, clothing, changing diapers, preparing bottles for the evening and helped parents with household duties. I am currently working with a family that has twins a boy and girl they had just turned 2 when I started with them. My duties are changing diapers, feeding, bathing, reading books, drawing taking them to the park to play they have alot of energy. I also help with household chores. I relocated to Contra Costa County to help out my sister recover after her surgery, now that she is feeling better I would like to resume working part time. My primary interest is finding part time steady work assisting families with young children. In my spare time I like to garden, walk my dog and go to the movies. I am a self-starter motivated person who is easy going, friendly, honest, dependable, respectful, and I like to think I have a good sense of humor. During challenging situations I can act calmly and with patience I am sure my life experience is the reason for this. I hope you will consider me for your child care needs. Best regards, Teri
“Ms. Teri took care of my son in the morning and helped him prepare for preschool while I was conducting conference calls. She was reliable, punctual, responsive, and trustworthy with a high sense of responsibility. My son was excited to see her every time. She even went above and beyond to help us tidy up the kitchen. We feel lucky to have met Teri. I would recommend her!”
I am a third grade teacher with fifteen years teaching experience. I work at a public school in Oakland’s Glenview neighborhood. I’m a mama of two kids, ages 17 and 20. I have the summer off and looking for some babysitting gigs!
“Erica was friendly, confident and professional, and she easily got into the swing of things with our two young kids. They had a great time with her, and she sent helpful updates as well so we had a nice evening out.”
Hi! I’m an elementary school teacher with 10 years of experience working with children, primarily in grades K–5. I bring a calm, attentive, and safety-first approach to every caregiving role. I take pride in being dependable, proactive, detail-oriented, and genuinely invested in each child’s well-being and growth. I love helping families maintain structure and supportive routines for their children. In addition, I am comfortable preparing meals, light housekeeping, laundry, and bed and bathtime routines. I value a clear outline of duties and clear communication with families, especially if I take children on an outing, so you are always informed and at ease. I have extensive childcare experience beyond the classroom and am confident in supporting different personalities, needs, and energy levels. I prioritize safety, consistency, and warmth, while also fostering independence and confidence in children. I have cared for babies as young as 6 months. I'm currently in a Mother's Helper/Light Childcare role in San Leandro. With my full-time teaching schedule, I would love to work with a family in Oakland. I look forward to connecting!
