Find a wedding babysitter in Oakland, CA

My name is Selome. I am a mother and a wife originally from Ethiopia, and I come from a large family. Over the past seven years, I have dedicated my career to working with children of all ages, from infants to pre-teens. I have experience at a childcare center that serves children from infancy through 13 years old. In this role, I worked in the preschool section with infants and toddlers, as well as in the after-school program for kindergarten through 6th grade. I hold over 12 units of early childhood education certificates and trainings, and I am CPR certified. My experience with infants and toddlers includes essential tasks such as changing diapers and maintaining their cleanliness, feeding them, and providing consistent, healthy sleep routines. I prioritize playtime and engage them in age-appropriate activities, such as visiting the park and participating in hands-on fun that promotes fine motor skills. With older children, I not only organize enjoyable indoor and outdoor activities but also read to them and assist with their schoolwork, fostering a supportive and enriching environment. I have a deep love for animals. I cherished a beautiful dog named Spanky, who was with me for 16 wonderful years until he passed away. Currently, I have two lovely cats named Sophi and Cammy, who have been part of my family for the past 10 years. I thoroughly enjoy spending time with them and playing together.

Hi families! I’m Zayne, a babysitter with over 5 years of hands-on experience with children from newborns to school-age, supporting their social and educational development. I love spending time with kids at parks, playgrounds, and craft spaces — creating structured, playful routines from arts & crafts to imaginative games.

Currently available mostly on weekends and open to occasional dates. Feel free to reach out — whether it’s making your routine smoother or giving you a well-deserved date night!

I studied Engineering at San José State University and have several years of experience working with children. I worked as an after-school STEM Educator in the Santa Clara School District at an elementary school, where I taught kids basic engineering concepts through hands-on activities, building projects, and problem-solving exercises. I enjoyed making learning fun while helping students develop creativity, teamwork, and confidence. I also worked as a YMCA instructor, teaching children basketball and soccer. I’m patient, responsible, energetic, and enjoy creating a safe and positive environment where kids can learn and have fun.
