I am the ultimate babysitter because I am a mother myself! If anyone knows what kids love, It's me. I know how to cook, play pretend, play tag, hide and seek, visit the local swimming pool, swim, teach swimming, read favorite books, take lots of pictures, bird watch, go on day trips, visit museums, the zoo and the list goes on. Being a kid at heart really helps to connect with children. I rarely meet a child who doesn't like me!

Madeline G., Child Care in Alameda, CA 94501 with 20 years of paid experience

Hello Parents! I live with passion and I share a great deal of it within the scope of my compassion when caring for children and getting the opportunity to be a part of family/families in caregiving. Youth have been a part of my life in some capacity for nearly moving into 24 years. Notably, I have cared in the private caregiving sector consistently for the past ~13 years in SF (native, Bay Area-San Mateo- SJ-East Bay-Peninsula with experience working within those areas). My experience ranges from Infants/toddlers are my specialty. Experience with share, multiples, twins, and special need care in the classroom/clincial, 1:1 in home (ASD/ABA therapy trained Behavior Technician Paraprofessional). I enjoy incorporating my love for music training/painting, health education (PH) background and incredible joy for the outdoors while working with youth. I consider myself loyal, honest, dedicated, giving, loving, consistent, confident, patient, reliable and kind. I love to laugh and smile, value healthy communication and reach far beyond my responsibilities. I view my part as a nanny/caregiver is such like a village with a family/families and I hope I can find a new family/families that would humbly know how special your children/child would be in my life, on a daily basis. I have a wealth of unconditional love to give children and as a nanny I’m honored to be able and share it amply, able to assist in as a step in parent, and part teacher as well. I practice positive parenting methods, strong subscriber to 100% limited to no-screen time which stem from my Montessori roots. I enjoy play based learning, inside and out! Individual growth is the best! I am extremely knowledgeable of amazing resources (no cost and many others across the scale) all across SF neighborhoods (including the Peninsula and South Bay extremely well) to fully provide and assist to foster children so they blossom into their own individual, special selves. “Assist in bringing out their own colors.” Warmest Regards to your family, Madeline/Maddy

My name is Jenny, I'm from Europe and I graduated from law school. This is my third year caring for children aged 0-10. I have more experience back in my country as I have constantly had to take care of children. I am very patient and sensitive to the needs of a child, I am organized and I always try to offer my best. Flexible with schedule and highly collaborative. I love being in an environment with children. I enjoy spending time with them but at the same time I am very responsible for their safety, well-being and entertainment. In my previous experiences I have also assisted with household chores or food preparation for the whole family.

Dania K., Child Care in Alameda, CA 94501 with 25 years of paid experience

Hello! I'm a dedicated childcare provider with over 25 years of paid experience, specializing in infant care and children from first grade and up. As a mother to a wonderful 20-year-old daughter, I understand firsthand the trust parents place in caregivers, and now that my own child is grown, I'm excited to share my passion for nurturing young minds. My previous family trusted me for 16 wonderful years until their children outgrew needing care, which speaks to my reliability and the meaningful relationships I build with families. I'm comfortable with all aspects of infant care including feeding, diaper changes, and sleep routines, and I love engaging elementary-age children with homework help and age-appropriate activities that encourage learning and creativity. I believe in creating a safe, nurturing environment where children feel secure and happy while maintaining open communication with parents about their child's day. My extensive experience means I can handle any situation with confidence and calm, and I'm committed to respecting each family's unique parenting style and household rules. I offer flexible scheduling to accommodate your family's needs and would love the opportunity to meet you and discuss how I can support your childcare needs. References available upon request.
