I’m a creative based in Los Angeles, and I’d love to help your family out! Growing up in NY I spent 5 years volunteering with children with special needs at my local JCC, as well as 2 years as a sleep away counselor for boys ranging from 4-9 years old. After majoring in Communications at Vanderbilt University I relocated to Los Angeles and have spent the last several years working in various jobs in entertainment. In 2019 and again from [phone number hidden] I worked as a personal assistant with duties such as childcare, pick ups, helping with projects, purchasing for the family, managing the home, etc. I also have experience working with kids in my time as an escape room supervisor. I’m looking forward to hearing from you.

A little bit about me
I love taking long walks with kids and talk to them about what we find as we walk, thats how kids open their minds and share how they think. I love sharing old stories about my childhood and growing upand keeping them busy learning through manual activities like puzzles, drawing, painting, etc. I love giving the best of me and they all have learned spanish while under my care. Id like to find a family willing to form a team, where the kids can grow up with lots of love and important values so they can in time go out and live a full life with these tools. My past close experience of last 14 years is with 2 sets of toddler twins, 6 mo's to 3 years and 6 mo's to 11 year old currently. I have always prepared full meals for the kids, and clean up after them. I have reference letters upon request as well as albums with activities and memories of my life as a nanny with my beloved twins.

"I am writing this with the highest recommendation for Ana, who has been a wonderful nanny for my son. Ana goes above and beyond. She is interactive and educational and we’ve seen an improvement in my sons development & growth. She took an interest in his growth, helping transition from purees to solids. She prepares healthy, nutritious meals and respects dietary preferences. Throughout the day, she engages him with reading, conversation, and stimulating activities. It’s clear he is learning and thriving with her. What sets Ana apart is her nurturing nature and genuine joy in her work. She keeps him busy with a variety of fun activities, games, and playdates. Ana is a great communicator, keeps us informed and is open to our preferences. The next family to have her as a nanny will be incredibly fortunate. Ana is a highly skilled, caring, and dedicated childcare professional who goes the extra mile for the children in her care. I wholeheartedly recommend her for any nanny position."

"Yasmin was so great with my 3 boys! She was very playful with them & kept them busy with board games, reading books, or playing chess with my oldest son. She even watched them for me during their swimming class when I had an appt. Yasmin is very sweet & trustworthy, I wish she was back in my area as I am in need of a babysitter! =)"

"Enma was a wonderful nanny to our son, and became someone we truly trusted and appreciated. She was loving, patient, attentive, and genuinely cared for him. We always felt comfortable knowing he was in her care, and it was clear that he felt safe and happy with her as well.
She very hands-on with his day-to-day care. She would cook and prepare meals for him and always made sure he was well fed and taken care of. She paid attention to his needs, played with him, engaged with him, and cared for him with so much patience and warmth.
She was dependable and responsible, but what stood out most was the genuine affection and kindness she showed him. Having someone you can fully trust with your child is incredibly important, and we were very grateful to have that with Enma.
We would happily recommend Enma to another family looking for someone caring, trustworthy, responsible, and loving to care for their children. We are incredibly thankful for the time she spent with our baby."

"I fully recommend hiring Maddy Ramsey as a nanny. In the years she worked for me she never missed a scheduled day. She is on time and ready to take over the minute she walks in the door. She was responsible for not only watching the children, she would fix meals for them, pick up after them, pack their lunches for the next school day, plan crafts, take them on outings to playgrounds, swimming pools, museums, and the zoo. Maddy is very trustworthy and was given a house key and allowed to use my car when taking the children to do activities around the town. She is easy to work with and wonderful with children. I wish she hadn’t moved away, so she could still work for us. Please call if you have any further questions."

"Nami has been an invaluable part of our family’s life. From day one, she has navigated her role with warmth and professionalism, immediately forming a meaningful bond with both of our children. She has always respected our preferred approach to parenting and has consistently demonstrated a willingness to adapt to meet the individual needs of our children. She has put a lot of gentle persistence into helping our toddler, who is an extremely picky eater, not only eat more regularly but also try new foods. And her engaging presence has also contributed positively to our younger child’s language development, whose vocabulary is expanding daily.
Nami has remained both flexible and dependable throughout her time with us and has truly become a trusted friend to our family. I would not hesitate to recommend Nami to any family looking for someone who is both professional and genuinely invested in the well-being of the children in her care."
