A little bit about me…

My name is Jil Sandy and I’m 25 years old. I've been living in California for almost 3 years.
I came here with Cultural Care as an Aupair in 2019. The Aupair experience was the best time in my life. I grew so much as a person and learned a lot about myself.
I came to this country all by myself which made me really independent and mature for my age. I'm originally from Germany. I grew up in Dresden, a beautiful city in the east. I'm fluent in German and English as well. Back in Germany I have a lovely Family.
I grew up with a single mom and my 2 younger siblings.
When my mom got really sick in 2018 I took care of my younger sister so she could focus on her healing process. I'm a really open minded and loving person.
I start everyday with a smile and just make the most out of everything. I have a lot of energy and I’m always respectful with everyone around me and my environment.

"Jil is easily the best nanny we have ever had. She goes above and beyond. My children absolutely loved Jil and missed her so much when she finished work with us. To this day my children still want to talk to her as she is such a perfect nanny. What made Jil so amazing for us (and what made her stand out from all the other nanny’s we had) is she has such a welcoming, warm and genuine approach toward my children. Jil truly cares, she really does! I see it when she’s playing with my children and I see it when my children are so happy to see her arrive. She effortlessly creates a trusting and loving connection with the young ones. This is what I absolutely love about Jil. I can definitely say, without a doubt, if you get the opportunity to have her as your nanny. Consider yourself blessed. She will make your life SO much easier and she’ll assist you in raising, watching, and nurturing your children the way you want to see it done."

A little bit about me…

I'm Amanda Garcia, 25, brazilian. I've worked as babysitter since an early teenager and then moved on to work with child care, not only as a nanny, but also as personal tutor and recreational activities. For 2 years I was an au-pair for a family in California, which can provide a recommendation letter and/or call. I love taking care of children, make them laugh and be creative in terms of the activities that we will do together. I'm an artist, studying acting in LA, so I'm very communicative and enjoy doing lots of arts and crafts. When reading stories, playing board games or planning outside activities, I'm always passionate and engaged. I'm very warm and caring, treating the kids with the attention and respect they deserve.

"I can’t say enough great things about Amanda! She is the kindest, responsible and caring young adult! Amanda joined our family as our au pair as Covid struck. She spent endless time with our 2 daughters and our whole family at a time when there was so much unknown. She jumped right in, creating fun activities for the girls and quickly became part of our family. She is incredibly creative and is constantly teaching our kids through the activities she plays with them. She stayed with us for 2 years and then returned back to her home country of Brazil when her au pair experience ended. We stayed in touch with her and she continued to grow her relationship with my girls even from quite a distance. More recently she came back to spend 3 months with us as we had a childcare transition and my girls were so excited to have her back. We instantly felt a calming with our chaotic schedule as soon as she arrived. She is like our personal Mary poppins! Anyone would be lucky to have her!"

A little bit about me…

Hello everyone! I am a recent graduate from Pepperdine University with a B.S in Psychology! I have been working with children for about four to five years now. My experience ranges vastly- from interning as a School's Psychologist's Assistant, to babysitting all my way through college and working with children with special needs. I was born and raised in Guatemala so if you are interested in your child learning Spanish, I would be more than happy to help with that. I am a creative and fun individual who will prioritize your child at all times!

Hi there! I'm Shani. I am lovable, I love kids and they love me! I am firm, but always fair giving love, affection and positive affirmation. I am a DONA trained PostPartum Doula, great with premature babies, newborns & twins. I can also help with potty training. I do my best to keep the television off, get out of the house & story time. I am looking to be part of a family not just an employee. I want a family that will embrace me as I will embrace them. I have excellent references from families upon request and you can call me anytime. In cases of financial hardship, I will work with families. You will never have to worry about your kids when they are with me. I am also available for fun babysitting and night care.

I will provide 2 references, do meal prep for the children, open for travel and take care of light house keeping as it pertains to the child. ie: Bottle washing, cleaning up toys etc.

I must be clear, I am not a housekeep.

Fun fact: I grew up on a tour bus.

"I am pleased to recommend Susie as an exceptional nanny. She has been with our family for over a year and continues to provide loving, trustworthy, and outstanding care for our 3-year-old twin daughters. Susie is dependable, hardworking, and excellent at engaging with the girls. She is not only caring and gentle but also highly responsible, ensuring the children are safe, happy, and well-cared for at all times. In addition to her childcare, Susie is a tremendous help around the house, assisting with tasks like laundry, light cleaning, and tidying up. Her ability to manage these duties with efficiency and a positive attitude makes her an invaluable part of our home. I trust Susie completely with my children and am confident she will be a wonderful addition to any family looking for a reliable and kind nanny. We absolutely love her!🩷"
