A little bit about me

Hi there! I'm Shani. I am lovable, I love kids and they love me! I am firm, but always fair giving love, affection and positive affirmation. I am a DONA trained PostPartum Doula, great with premature babies, newborns & twins. I can also help with potty training. I do my best to keep the television off, get out of the house & story time. I am looking to be part of a family not just an employee. I want a family that will embrace me as I will embrace them. I have excellent references from families upon request and you can call me anytime. In cases of financial hardship, I will work with families. You will never have to worry about your kids when they are with me. I am also available for fun babysitting and night care.

I will provide 2 references, do meal prep for the children, open for travel and take care of light house keeping as it pertains to the child. ie: Bottle washing, cleaning up toys etc.

I must be clear, I am not a housekeep.

Fun fact: I grew up on a tour bus.

The most important part about being a nanny...

I always love when families let me set the agenda for the day and not get stuck in the house or walking just back and forth to the park. It's super fun to take kids to the pet store or the fish store. The kids think its one of the most amazing things in the world. I love doing that.

Hello, I’m Emily!
I'm a caring and experienced nanny who genuinely loves working with children of all ages. I have hands-on experience caring for my 9-month-old niece, Ella, which has deepened my understanding of infant routines, developmental milestones, and the patience and attentiveness little ones need to thrive.
I’m confident handling everything from feedings and nap schedules to playtime, all while creating a safe, nurturing, and fun environment.
Whether it’s soothing a fussy baby or keeping older kids engaged with creative activities, I bring a calm, positive energy to every family I work with.

Afsaneh A. - Seeking Work in Santa Monica

Part-Time Child Care Provider Available in Santa Monica, CA: Afsaneh A.

I've been a nanny for 10 years. I've worked with infant age to 9 years old. I have a child-friendly car and a good driving record. I've taken 30 units of child development at LACC and worked for 5 years as a lab technician in Israel. I also worked as a substitute teacher at Temple Bet Am. For many years I was a volunteer at my childrens' elementary school.

As a nanny I make sure the kids have lots of fun and learn with play. I encourage organization, respect, openess with emotions, honesty and responsibility. I prepare balanced meals, help with homework, bathe them, do their laundry, drive them to appointments and activities, facilitate playdates and help with anything else in their daily routines.

I believe in keeping calm and being firm.

I love working with children, the amount of positive emotion I get out of it is enormous.
