A little bit about me

Hi! I'm a former entertainment industry worker looking to transition to a new career and in the meantime my extensive background in childcare had me interested in nanny lane. I am a graduate of USC who grew up in Encino so I know Los Angeles well and all kinds of kid-friendly outings / activities that my 4-year-old niece would definitely endorse! I'm absolutely happy to do household work, meal prep, etc. -- whatever makes parents' life easier! I've been nannying sometimes full-time and otherwise part-time on/off since I was in high school and have babysat for kids from infancy to tween-hood. I also have experience hanging out with special needs kids. References available upon request. Thanks for reading!

More About Me

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

I regularly help out my sister-in-law who's a single mom with a 4-year-old daughter at home. She travels a lot for work and I love being able to make her (and grandma's! -- also a single parent to my partner and his sister) lives easier :D.

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

Indoor activities: age-appropriate board games; easy card games I've noticed hold a certain novelty for modern kiddos (Spoons, UNO, Go Fish, War); ad hoc versions pictionary or charades; for very little ones, I Spy is always a winner! Puzzles are great; I am an enthusiastic doll attendant, too.

Outdoor activities: If there is a back yard or a park, I've noticed almost all kids like to pretend to be fairies -- really just a way to point out interesting aspects of nature. Treasure hunts are fun, too, and any backyard sport or activity that a kid needs an opponent for... I am always happy to be on my feet for a game of softball, soccer, whatever!

The most important part about being a nanny...

I would say making a kid feel heard. Both in terms of their immediate needs of course -- are they hungry, tired, etc.? But also just validating their little growing POVs on the world. I find that taking a kid's musings seriously and just being an enthusiastic listener can go a long way in terms of building a rapport and creating an environment where the kid trusts me enough to listen in turn when it really matters, and have fun always.

My experience with special needs children...

My longtime roommate's sister has Downs Syndrome and I've been pals with her for 15 years now. I also have experience as a nanny for an Autistic boy (now in college) from ages infant through early teens.

The most important part about being a nanny...

Watching a pair of 5-year-old twin boys get scary good at Monopoly over the course of one summer -- it became their absolute favorite, and they headed into Kindergarten so excited about math.
