Keisha was wonderful to work with. She was so kind to let me schedule her with notice just one day in advance. She was very good at managing two toddlers. She was patient and acclimated very quickly. I would highly recommend her and work with her again.

Joanna H., Child Care in Orinda, CA 94563 with 6 years of paid experience

Hello! My name is Joanna, I’m 27 years old and I’m excited to meet your little one(s). I would describe myself as attentive, caring, and very silly. I like to make arts and crafts, play board games, read, and enjoy nature. I’m able to help with homework and light house duties if needed. I’m CPR certified and I have a BLS. I have experience with children with disabilities. I’ve worked with children quite some time now, I started when I was 17 years old. I’ve worked with many different families (short term and long term). I’m very flexible with schedules and I’m comfortable with pets. I worked full time as a certified nursing assistant helping the elderly and nannying as a part time but I realized I enjoyed being a nanny more than my full time job. That is when I became a 1:1 aide at a school. I enjoy working with children because I love to see them learn and grow and they’re always such happy souls. Your children are guaranteed to be in good hands with me! :)

Violet V., Child Care in Orinda, CA 94563 with 4 years of paid experience

Hello! My name is Violet, and I have 8 years of childcare experience. I have been a nanny exclusively for about 4 years and have cared for kids of all ages, although my "specialty" is with younger ones! I love caring for infants, as I am currently working as a Postnatal Care Specialist, where I take care of newborns and freshly postpartum families. I have future goals of becoming an ultrasound technician. I show up every day with an open mind, empathy, patience, and a smile. I love to connect with everyone in the family. I also know a lot of baby sign because I am learning ASL, which can really help those younger ones greatly with their language skills!

Violet is an absolute joy! My kids love her and are always excited to her. She is VERY punctual, well-spoken and kind. She asks questions when she is unsure and respects all of our wishes. We could not recommend her more!

Lisa is great! She is always on time and communicates in advance about changes or delays. Very easy to work with and flexible. She is also fun to talk to and my 12 year old daughter enjoys the conversations. We are really lucky to have found her.

Responsive, friendly, and has gentle nurturing approach to my kids and my entire family. She fit right in on Day 1 and has already added tremendous value. Being an ER nurse by trade is also a huge plus. Highly recommend Charlotte to anyone in need of some help!

Charnette A., Child Care in Orinda, CA 94563 with 7 years of paid experience

I previously served as an Infant/Toddler Lead Teacher at a Fortune 100 company on San Francisco's Embarcadero. Currently, I teach at a play-based preschool in the Piedmont/Oakland area. What I love most about my current role is being part of a program that views families as true partners; we build deep, collaborative connections with parents through daily check-ins and shared community projects to ensure a seamless home-school connection. In our vibrant classrooms and beautiful outdoor spaces, I guide children through an emergent curriculum that lets their natural curiosity and peer interactions shape their learning journey. With six years of professional teaching experience and babysitting since my early teens, I specialize in nurturing the whole child by prioritizing social-emotional development and relationship-building. I thrive on helping young learners safely navigate new environments, build confidence, and make new friends. I love being silly, spreading joy with smiles and laughter, and acting as a true "learning ally" to your child. I am eager to learn more about this opportunity.

Charnette has been terrific to work with. She has baby sat our son multiple times starting when he was 9mo old (He's 2yo now). She really knows kids at that age and was able to connect with him quickly and overcame any stranger-danger. They clearly had a good time together and things went super smoothly. She is always quick at communicating and getting back to us and absolutely on time. We couldn't be happier.

Maria is a warm, deeply professional caregiver with over 20 years of experience, and she put my mind at ease within the first week. The children adore her. They light up when she arrives, and they've built a real routine and trust with her over our time together. She's patient in the moments that call for patience and playful in the moments that call for play, and she reads which is which without being told.  Maria communicates clearly, shows up reliably, and treats our home and our kids with genuine respect. I've trusted her with things I wouldn't hand off to just anyone, and she's never given me a reason to second-guess that. I cannot recommend Maria more for the best Nanny.

Katrina E., Child Care in Orinda, CA 94563 with 8 years of paid experience

Hi! I’m Katrina, and I’m a warm, dependable childcare professional with 15 years of experience caring for children of all ages. For more than 8 years, I’ve also supported autistic children, adolescents, and teens, helping them feel safe, understood, and confident in their daily routines. I’m CPR/First Aid certified, fully vaccinated, and experienced in caring for children with allergies, asthma, and other medical needs. I’m patient, attentive, and enjoy getting to know each child’s unique personality and interests. I love creating fun, engaging days through play, reading, crafts, and age-appropriate activities while providing a safe and nurturing environment. I’m comfortable preparing meals and helping with bath time, bedtime routines, and light housekeeping, including washing dishes, doing laundry, wiping surfaces, and vacuuming or sweeping. I’m also happy to assist with pet care. However, due to allergies, I’m unable to provide care in homes with cats. Due to my current schedule, I don’t have availability for recurring daytime childcare. However, I’m open to regular evening sitting, including date nights, late events, or general care to give parents a break, as well as occasional babysitting needs.

Katrina is nurturing, patient, and kind. She has baby sat my daughter over the course of two years. She and my daughter have such a great relationship. I love how she structures her time with my daughter; she ensures my daughter though young, follows a routine and always has activities for her to try. Katrina applies any feedback to her quickly and is always looking to ensure she provides the best quality of care. I really appreciate her help.
