A little bit about me

Hi, I’m Jada! I’ve worked with kids for over six years now and I love what I do. I’ve cared for children from 3 months old through teenager years. I spent 4 years with one family, which meant a lot to me. I value consistency, building relationships, and being someone both kids and parents can fully trust. I’m experienced in school drop offs/ pick ups, driving to activities, school help, meal prep, bath time, and keeping routines running smoothly. I’m available for overnights and weekends and comfortable driving both my own car and family vehicles. I have experience with infants including bottles/feedings, naps, and developmental play. I also have a background in ABA training and behavioral support, which helps me guide children with patience while encouraging communication, confidence, and emotional regulation. I’m happy to help with light chores related and I’m comfortable with pets. Please feel free to reach out at any time and I’d be happy to provide my references if needed!

A little bit about me

Hi! I’m Candace, a warm, nurturing, and dependable professional nanny with over 25 years of childcare experience caring for children from infancy through the teenage years. Childcare has always come naturally to me, and I truly love becoming a trusted and supportive part of a family’s life.

I’m patient, organized, active, and very hands-on. I enjoy creating fun and age-appropriate activities, getting children outdoors, encouraging creativity and independence, preparing healthy meals, and maintaining consistent routines and a calm, loving environment. I believe in gentle but clear boundaries, positive reinforcement, and helping children feel safe, heard, and confident.

I’m also highly adaptable and understand that every family operates differently. I value open communication, mutual respect, reliability, and working together with parents as a team. I’m comfortable managing busy schedules, household and child-related tasks, travel, overnights, and changing needs as children grow.

A little bit about me

Hello!
I am a 29 year old nanny looking for a job in Studio City come December. I was a live in nanny in Manhattan for 4 years to 3 wonderful children starting at ages 4months, 2 and 5. I was also a babysitter in LA for 5 years for two children starting at the ages of 2 & 6. I absolutely adored all of families I've worked for & I am looking for a family who I can build a similar relationship with. I am looking for something long term. My average day as a nanny consist of preparing meals for kids, cleaning up after kid (willing to do all things cleaning that are for kid), taking them to local parks, going on walks and playing interactive games with them. In my free time I love to paint so I come with tons of art/hands on projects on deck. I am also available for the occasional weekend. I am currently in Michigan and am moving to LA in December. Fully vaxxed & willing to answer any questions you have :)

A little bit about me

I am a currently professional caregiver registered with Trust line background check, with 8+ years in professional childcare, experience in classroom settings ages 6months - 12 years, and 4 years experience in Pediatric medical assisting. I am also CPR certified. As a teachers assistant, I lead homework assistance, STEM crafts, and outdoor activities. I grew up hands-on and curious climbing trees, taking things apart, always asking how something worked and that instinct still shapes how I approach childcare today. I adapt easily and stay attentive to what’s actually needed in the moment. I see this work as a true partnership with parents finding the right rhythm and approach together, for your family specifically. I’m also glad to support the household more broadly, from meal preparation to organization to everyday upkeep, whatever helps things run smoothly. I’d welcome the chance to talk further and find out if we’re the right fit for each other.
