I was also a nanny for 3 children (4yrs, 9yrs, and 12yrs old) in Studio City. Worked as a behavioral therapist/interventionist and as a Nursing Assistant as well!

A little bit about me

Hello, my name is Jazmine Valtierra
I am patient and open to new opportunities, I love to help out when needed and will do my best to make the individual feel comfortable. I currently live with all age group of kids, I have a big family, the house gets one is 2 years old. There are 8 kids in my house, I’m the oldest from 2. I am 20, going to turn 21 soon. If I am available to take care of someone’s child, I will understand him/her, try to distinguish what they like or what they don’t like. It’s all about getting adjusted and having the patience with a child, children are open to things but we have to be aware that they are kids wanting to experience life, but with caution. I grew up with kids left and right, I am able to understand a child. That’s a brief way to describe myself in short words, I hope it’s interesting enough. Have a great day :)

A little bit about me

My name is Hanna Hoyt and I'm an alumni of the University of Minnesota. I am currently living in Santa Monica, CA. I'm 26 years old and graduated with a degree in psychology. I have always loved volunteering and working with kids and this led me to writing my senior capstone research paper on the importance of positive role models in a child's life, which further solidified that I wanted to work with kids. My first job out of college was working for the Salvation Army Child Development Center. At my job here I got the chance to work with fifteen students aged 3-5. I plan daily lessons for them in math, social studies, art, language, physical education and more. I have also done a lot of volunteering with kids of all ages at the Good Neighbor Center. This is a nonprofit that helps students complete their homework and school assignments. The past two years I have worked as a nanny for kids aged 4 months - 6 years old.
