Childcare Needed - set your own schedule Oakland
Job description
Join the Team! Sound Care Agency is currently looking for exceptional nannies to join our team of back up care nannies in the greater Bay Area. Are you comfortable and experienced balancing the needs of children of all ages? Are you a master fort builder, a singer of silly songs, a sidewalk chalk artist, a team player and an excellent communicator? Do you refer to yourself as a childcare professional extraordinaire? Do you enjoy having a flexible schedule and working in new environments? Yes, you say? Then Sound Care Agency is the place for you! Here in our back-up care department, we specialize in providing on demand, back up and temporary childcare to families in the greater Bay Area (except Marin County). As a member of our back up care team, and an employee of Sound Care Agency, one day you could be filling in for a sick nanny, one day you could be caring for brand new infant twins and another day you could be watching school age kids at a fantastic hotel - the adventures are truly endless. And, we make it easy for you. Our process allows you to set your own schedule and only accept the jobs that fit within your own set parameters. The short of it is this, being a SCA back-up care nanny allows you to dictate the when, the where and how often you work. It doesn’t get much better than that. THE DETAILS Location: Though we service several areas around the Bay Area, our biggest need is for nannies able to work in and around Oakland, Alameda, San Francisco, San Mateo, Los Altos, Redwood City Start Date: We are looking for nannies immediately!

Experience: Our nannies must have at least 2 years of professional childcare experience. We are looking for caregivers that are a shining example of what a true nanny is. We work with nannies that can not only meet the physical needs of the kids in their care (changing diapers, feeding, putting down for naps/sleep), but who come to the table with ideas on creative ways to engage with children.
