A little bit about me

Hi my name is Caitlyn and I am an experienced career nanny. I have experience working in a daycare, live-in positions, and have been with several families over the years both full-time, part-time and occasional date nights. I have worked with infants as young as 4 months and up to 12 years old. I am comfortable with several children at one time. I love building connections with the children I work with and watching them meet milestones, learn and grow.

My philosophy as a nanny and caregiver is that we are a team! I am here for you as a parent as much as I am here for the kids. If it's a stressful week I am more than happy to help around the house, run errands, take the dog on a walk, etc. I am super organized and love to tidy up. Whatever you need don't be afraid to ask! Life gets chaotic, especially with ever changing little ones.

A little bit about me

Hello! My name is Lucie, and I am a French-American aspiring children's therapist living in Los Angeles. My passions include writing and early childhood education - I'd love to write children's books one day! My younger sister was born when I was 10 years old, so I have been caring for children for a long time. I have 10+ years of babysitting experience under my belt for children of all ages (infants to teenagers), as well as 3+ years of infant/toddler nannying experience. I am deeply passionate about providing children with all the tools they need to be happy, and my goal is to help out as much as I can. I look forward to meeting you and your family! (P.S., I am also CPR-certified and have ABA training as well.)
