A little bit about me

Hello, Families! I am a very honest, energetic and loving nanny. I have been caring for children for as long as I can remember, starting in elementary school. Most recently, I worked as a nanny/housekeeper for a child with special needs. I love to cook and do not have any problems doing some housekeeping (picking up after the children, doing dishes, occasional children’s laundry, etc.). I am excellent at making super fun (healthy) snacks for children! :)

Recent reference

"Avyn was truly an asset to my family not only in an employee aspect but a friend aspect as well. she cared for my children as if they were her own and the pride she had in the job was truly shown. she did everything she was asked to do and then some, I believe Avyn would be the best person to hire simply because it’s very clear she puts her all into any task she is assigned. my kids loved her and she still calls to check in on them every once in a while, such an amazing hard working young woman with tons of responsibility."

A little bit about me

I am Uriya. I live in Los Angeles and have spent the last three years working in Education. Working as an Education Specialist at a museum, I have created several play-based, hands on, developmentally appropriate lesson plans for K-12 students. This has also given me a lot of experience in classrooms for students of all ages. Most recently, I completed a lesson plan for a new TK program for 4 year olds in LAUSD. I also am the Assistant Director of Youth and Children’s Ministries at Westwood United Methodist Church. In that role I get to work with our youth group (middle and high school) and our children (birth to fifth grade). I have always worked in education and with children. I have been a babysitter for many children, and I have been a nanny for 3 families. My approach is gentle, child-centered, and always focused on age appropriate development. I love Montessori and finding screen free ways to have fun and learn! I am so excited to get to know your family and help support you!

A little bit about me

Hello, my name is Lara! I am 27 and originally from Boston, MA. I will be starting a Curriculum and Instruction Ph.D. program in the fall, where I will be working to further contribute to the K-12 world. I have a plethora of experience working with children from infants to teenagers, at home, and in educational settings (after-school programs and summer camps). I believe children are intelligent beings who need a caregiver who will expand their creativity. Therefore, it is essential for me to expose children to different cultures and new information. I also keep them engaged by playing games, doing puzzles, art projects, anything to keep their minds active! Overall, I enjoy taking care of a house and those in it! I will gladly cook meals for the family, and I am willing to do light housework. I am incredibly patient, and children's safety/well-being comes first. Thus, I balance the fun sister role and a responsible caregiver who sets rules and expectations.

A little bit about me

Hello families. Im a 37 year old with 7 years of experience, looking for a family who needs an extra hand with their little one, someone who is respectful and as nice as me :) preferably in the Venice/ marina del Rey area. I never thought I’d find taking care of kids to be my passion, yet here I am. I have references, and my current family won’t longer need me after august, since my little guy will be turning 6, and I’ve done my job with him after 5.5 years, and I’m ready for my next adventure.
If you’d like to know more about me, don’t hesitate to message me.
Thank you.
