A little bit about me

Hi! I am an energetic, reliable professional nanny with lots of experience with kids! I have been babysitting for neighbors, friends, and family since I was 15 years old and was a professional nanny in Massachusetts for over 2 years and recently just moved to Los Angeles. I am looking for a long-term, professional, live-in nanny job starting this summer. I can provide amazing references from the families I worked for and my resume. I strive to provide the best care, learning environment, and enrichment for your children. I know how important it is for kids to have a fun and engaging nanny, especially for the summer. I will provide the best care for your children as well as meet any other needs you ask of me. I am working on getting a car but have no issue with transportation to and from work. I am trustworthy, professional, and open to travel.

A little bit about me

Hello! My name is Cathy and I am a energetically responsible Nanny who is passionate about uplifting my children's ambitions and talents. I care about their well-being as well as their education. I pay attention to detail so that I can understand what they are feeling to know them better.

My communication levels are strong because I believe that having a strong and trusting relationship with the parents are just as important as having one with the children.

A little bit about me

I am a 25 year old businesswoman working in the culinary industry. I own a catering company but with COVID-19, we have closed to take extra precaution. I am an award winning chef in NJ and a trained Baker- this makes me perfect for meal preps and cooking for you!

I had temporary custody of my 8 year old cousin from March until September of this year and I did all of his virtual learning with him. I became incredibly good at making quarantined days some of the best days. I am energetic and active- I love the outdoors and I will really PLAY with your child, I don't just watch. I was my neighborhood babysitter from age 15 to 22 which is when I moved to NYC. I believe that a positive attitude is the only way to approach life. I care about what you as parents need and want from a caregiver and I will love your child and care for them as if they're my own.

Thank you for your time!

A little bit about me

Hello! My name is Sonia, and I’m a certified Special Education teacher licensed in California and Connecticut, with New York certification currently in progress. Over the past four years, I’ve taught both high school and middle school students, primarily supporting children with significant emotional and behavioral needs as well as students with autism spectrum disorder (ASD).

Outside of the classroom, I’ve been babysitting since I was 12 years old and genuinely enjoy working with children of all ages. I have a valid driver’s license, extensive experience driving in and around New York City, and I’m happy to travel when needed. Thanks to my background in special education, I’m especially well equipped to support children who may benefit from a little extra patience, structure, or individualized care. If your child has unique needs, I would love the opportunity to get to know your family and provide the compassionate, reliable support you’re looking for.
