A little bit about me
Youssef here!
I am a Jazz guitar and piano player who lives in berkeley. I graduated in economics and management from a french prestigious university "Universit Paris Dauphine" and decided to switch to music because that is what I love to do and I believe that what you love is what you will be successful at.
So this is why I came to berkeley, for jazz studies in California Jazz Conservatory.
I speak arabic french and english very fluently and can teach your child languages and music and entertain them! I've been dealing with kids for almost 2 years now. I love it! I teach guitar to kids in music schools and I babysit an 11 years old boy serving as a "big brother" to him and influencing him for the best : culturally, musically , and behaviour. I am ready to do the same for your kids, feel free to reach out anytime!

How to Hire a Bilingual Nanny in Berkeley, CA
Nanny Lane helps you find a bilingual nanny in Berkeley, CA who can care for your children in more than one language.
We offer nanny services including background checks, Agency, and nanny payroll. Start by posting a profile with a job description, and soon you can start connecting with nannies who fit your family.
What Is a Bilingual Nanny?
A bilingual nanny speaks English and at least one other language, such as Spanish, French, Mandarin, or Portuguese, and uses both with the children. Some families want a native speaker to introduce a second language from an early age, and others need a nanny who can communicate with a relative or care for a child who speaks another language at home.
Common Responsibilities of Bilingual Nannies in Berkeley, CA
A bilingual nanny handles the usual childcare tasks, such as meals, play, outings, and routines, while speaking the second language during everyday activities. Many also read stories, sing songs, and play games in that language, so children pick it up naturally rather than from flashcards.
What to Consider Before You Hire
Decide how much of the day you want in the second language and how fluent the nanny needs to be. Ask about their background in the language and any experience helping children learn it. Fluency varies, so it helps to have part of the interview in the language. If you need a specific language, mention it in your job description so nannies can find you.
Bilingual Nanny Interview Questions
Once you find a promising candidate, invite them for an interview to see if they would be a great fit for your family. Here are some questions you can ask:
- Which languages do you speak, and how did you learn them?
- How would you use the second language with my children during the day?
- Have you helped children learn or keep up a second language before?
- Are you comfortable speaking only in that language for part of the day?
- Are you trained in First Aid or CPR?
At this stage, request their references and ask their references some questions. After preparing the job offer or contract, we recommend that you run a background check before the start date.
