A little bit about me

Hi, I’m Hope! I’m a professional career nanny and family assistant with 10+ years of experience caring for children ages 2 months to 14 years, including infants, toddlers, twins, and school-age children.

I provide warm, attentive care while supporting milestones such as baby-led weaning, early language development, and potty training. I enjoy planning enriching activities, outings, playdates, and classes while maintaining consistent routines at home and during family travel.

I’m also experienced with after-school logistics, homework help, meal preparation, children’s laundry, errands, light housekeeping, and household organization. I’m a reliable driver with a clean record, comfortable with pets, and a former swim instructor and lifeguard with strong water-safety experience.

Families describe me as calm, dependable, proactive, flexible, and highly communicative. I’m seeking a full-time nanny or nanny/family assistant position with an LA family. Excellent references are available.

More About Me

Relevant experience where I also cared for children were...

I worked as a lifeguard and as a swim instructor at Goldfish Swim School throughout high school. These roles taught me responsibility, patience, and water safety.

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

I enjoy activities like going to the pool, beach, park, and age-appropriate classes (music, dance, art, etc). As well as baking, doing arts and crafts, and reading.

The most important part about being a nanny...

The most important part of being a nanny is helping children feel safe, understood, and confident enough to explore the world around them. I try to ask myself, “Is this actually dangerous, or is it just inconvenient?” If it’s safe, I want kids to have the freedom to try things, make a mess, meet new people, experience new environments, and learn through doing.

Of course, that freedom comes with thoughtful boundaries and close supervision. I also believe in following the parents’ lead and creating consistency. My goal is for children to know that I’m a safe, supportive person they can trust while they become more independent and confident.

The most important part about being a nanny...

The 8-month-old I currently care for recently fell asleep in my arms, a rare and unexpected moment that brought me to tears because it made me realize how much he must trust and feel safe with me. The 2-year-old I nanny often surprises me with his sweetness, like when he says, 'I'm proud of you, Hope,' after I do something kind for him, like sharing my food or tying his shoes. It’s these small moments that make nannying such a meaningful job.
