A little bit about me

Hi, my name is Angelica. I currently work with special needs children. I started out in the Orange County and Culver City Unified School Districts and now I am a part-time nanny for a family in Santa Monica. Before this, I had been a nanny for families with children anywhere from infants to teenagers. I was also a piano teacher for ten years and a CNA for one year. I feel the fit between the family I work with and myself is very important so I would love to meet you and see if we would be a good fit.

Hi, my name is Shayna. I am 23 years old and I recently graduated from UCSB with my bachelors in Political Science. I currently work at a law firm in Los Angeles as a legal assistant. I grew up in Oregon, being a care taker from the very beginning. I looked out for my younger sister my entire life. I started babysitting when I was 16 and realized my love for kids. I am super artsy and creative and love coming up with fun activities for kids to keep them busy and keep their minds active. I also take safety very seriously and I am CPR certified. I hope I get the opportunity to work with your family.
