A little bit about us

My wife and I both work from home for Bay Area-based companies and are looking for full-time childcare (M-F 8am-5pm) starting in Jan 2025 when we both go back to work at which point our baby boy will be just over 4 months.

We have two cats who are both very well behaved around strangers and babies. No pet care or housekeeping duties.

We'd like to limit screen time when children are awake. We're happy to host a nanny share but are also open to an individual arrangement.

A little bit about us

We are seeking a family to form a new full-time nanny share in January 2020 or seeking a spot in an existing nanny share for our daughter, who will be 6 months old in January. We'd love to find a good match with a family with a child very near this age, so they can play, grow, and develop together. We are looking for a family who is willing to host, but we are willing to share hosting duties, if needed. Seeking care M-F around 8am - 5pm, but we are flexible with daily hours.

About us: We are first time parents who own a home right off Grand Ave in the Lake Merritt neighborhood. Mom works from home for a large consulting firm and has a relatively flexible schedule. Dad works in finance tech in SF. We are new to the nannying thing, so hoping to find another family who are open to learning and collaborating to create an optimal arrangement for both families.

About the baby: Our daughter is easy going, curious, loves listening to music, strolling in the neighborhood, tummy time, and play time outdoors. She is generally a good napper and sleeper, and she loves meeting other babies. Most days, she sticks to a regular schedule of eating and two nap times, but we understand some days we have to shift to her needs or special activities.

Looking for a responsible, very clean and caring person for morning care, breakfast and school drop off. I have a sweet 5 yrs old boy. School is about 12 minutes walk from our home so the person doesn’t need a car. I will prefer someone that lives here in Oakland for easier commute and punctuality. Must have California ID or DL.
The hours might be more for care of my 2 other kids from 8am to 6pm. Or just morning care for my 5 years old boy. Live-scan fingerprinting and background check must be completed through California Trustline.

Types of Nanny Jobs and Nanny Responsibilities in Oakland, CA

Before you start looking for a nanny job, it's essential to learn about the different types of nannies and how they compare to each other so that you make sure you’re looking for the right opportunities.

The different types of nanny jobs have different nanny responsibilities. The boundaries for nannies duties vary from family to family. However, in general, a nanny is responsible for making sure the children's needs are met, including things like ensuring they have opportunities to play and be active. When tasks go beyond child care, for example, housekeeping or meal preparation, it’s good practice to make sure your expectations are aligned with the family.

There are temporary nanny jobs, even seasonal nanny jobs like summer nanny jobs. Beyond seasonal and temporary nanny positions, there are differences between full-time and part-time nanny jobs. The primary difference being the number of hours you spend at your nanny job every week. For full-time nannies, there are options for live in nanny positions and live-out positions in Oakland. Live-out positions are more common, but each family has their own set of needs that require different types of care, and live in nanny positions can be exactly what some families want. If you're looking to explore live in nanny positions , it's even more important to create a shared set of expectations around hours, responsibilities, and what is expected of you when you're not on the clock.

How to Interview for a Nanny Job in Oakland, CA

Once you start connecting with prospective employers, the next step is a nanny job interview. Here is a list of some nanny interview questions to prepare for:

  • What do you think children like best about you?
  • What kind of activities will you do with children this age?
  • How do you handle problems that arise behaviorally and emotionally with kids this age?

Beyond answering questions, families will want you to have your nanny references ready and ask any questions to show initiative. The nanny job interview is an excellent opportunity to get aligned on the nanny job expectations. By doing this, you can get off on the right foot with your future employer.
