Nanette is the best sitter we've ever had!! She is the only person outside of my family that I have felt 100% comfortable leaving my daughter with. She always knows what to do and you can tell that she's a great mom, which is very important in my opinion! Nanette also looks after our dog when we're out of town, and every time she comes to pick her up, our dog gets overly excited. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Nanette to anyone!

My name is Iayana and I'm a 21 year old High School graduate and Dental assistant. I'm a reliable and caring babysitter with experience caring for children of all ages because I've taken care of siblings, cousins and family friends. I enjoy creating a safe, fun, and supportive environment through activities like games, crafts, and reading, while also helping with routines such as meals, homework, and bedtime. Safety, patience, and responsibility are always my top priorities. I can update parents throughout the day on what the kids are doing and send pictures if wanted. I'm also very strict with whatever parents say the rules are.

Hello, my name is Alex, and I am a fun-loving caregiver with 8 years of experience across all age groups. I have a very flexible schedule, and I can often work last minute if needed! I recently concluded nannying for 3 wonderful siblings aged 3, 6, and 8, and I have two younger brothers whom I babysat for years, alongside various other preschool, elementary, and middle school-aged children. I have a BA in psychology and was fortunate to learn a great deal about child development during my education; I am currently completing a master's in Counseling Psychology to become a marriage and family therapist. I love art, music, and sports, so I can help keep your youngster entertained! I am also an experienced cook and am happy to take on household tasks such as meal preparation, cleaning, laundry, transportation, and animal care. I can also help with bedtime routines and stay late or overnight if needed. Whether you are looking for occasional or long-term care, I look forward to hearing from you!

Having Alex as part of our family in the spring was wonderful. She provided both nanny and babysitting services for our 3 and 6 year old boys. She helped keep the house tidy, drove my boys to activities, and made sure they were entertained, off the screens, and in bed when they were supposed to be.

Pelkyi was so great with our 13 month old daughter! She was kind, fun, and very engaging with her. She came up with interactive activities and our daughter really connected with her genuine energy. I felt very comfortable with her watching and caring for my daughter. I would highly recommend her to all families!

Hello I'm Camilla, I am not your average nanny. I am a nurturing musical nanny who prioritizes safety and communication with parents. When it comes to infants, I provide helpful tips for first time parents, from baby proofing to using music from the newborn stage to support comfort, learning, and early development. Research and KTLA News have shown how infants respond to music and its benefits for early brain activity, attention, and engagement. I have seen first hand how, right before my eyes, music promotes early speech and curiosity. Infants often sing or vocalize along with music before they can fully articulate words, helping them connect sounds to language and tasks, even venturing into math. As a responsive and listening nanny, I have great success communicating with toddlers. I anticipate outcomes and help them navigate moments of frustration. As early as nine months, I teach rhythm, movement, rhyming, and how syllables connect in children as young as two. These patterns support early reading skills and encourage critical thinking. With a background in nursing and music, it is incredibly rewarding to see babies recognize my songs, then hear toddlers sing them and become engaged when I read to them. In my spare time I enjoy writing stories and composing songs that support developmental milestones. Music is one of my tools to soothe and stimulate infants while helping toddlers and young children navigate boundaries, new skills, potty training, and challenging moments. I compose songs that meet children's needs, bring enjoyment, and promote self esteem while encouraging them to keep trying. I also apply principles from Music Therapy and Occupational Therapy to support learning and development. Including children's individual interests helps build strong connections and spark curiosity. I am confident providing homework support and engaging children in creative arts activities. I bring a strong work ethic and can be counted on to be reliable and dedicated. I studied Music at UCLA and have a passion for teaching. I promote healthy snacks, stay up to date on vaccinations, and follow hygiene guidelines. I am available full or part time, for date nights, and as a mothers helper. I am comfortable around pets and have plenty of energy to keep up with growing little ones. Thank you for reading.

Camilla is so kind and sweet to our son, who is 3 years old. She has watched him many times now and he’s always happy and learning new things with her. I would definitely recommend her as a caring nanny!

Laura was a wonderful babysitter who put my wife and I at ease leaving our baby for the first time. She was prompt in her arrival and super communicative throughout the entire evening. We highly recommend Laura for any opportunities and look forward to booking her in the future!

I am a 47 year old mom to a 15 year old wonderful young man. I started taking care of children when I was 13 years old. I love children and want them to have a positive healthy atmosphere and good nutrition. I think structure is important like having a consistent routine for sleep and eating. I feel that music should be on most of the time. I was born in New York to immigrant parents from Greece. I speak Greek fluently and have studied other languages including French and Spanish. I love to cook, bake, go fishing and garden. I have experience with children with special needs and understand the challenges and joys that come from them.

Our family, especially my three children, absolutely adored “Argi.” She introduced all of us to new cultural aspects and ways of life. She taught my children with passion, care, patience, humor, and she’s an amazing cook as well. She put strong emphasis on healthy choices and nutrition in every meal and does it with endless amounts of love and care. She is respectful of other cultures and traditions. She knows how to get my kids to open up and share their concerns with her. For example, my daughter who was going through some tough times with school so Argi would always make it a point to do special little things for her and constantly reminding her how strong and resilient she is, giving her confidence to overcome anything that got in her way. My son who does not like to try new food now discovers that he likes Greek and Mediterranean cuisine. She’s the biggest cheerleader and supporter to all three kids with their sports and always shows up to support them.At times when I find myself at odds with my children lol, Argi becomes the peacemaker middleman trying to help us understand each other’s perspectives. She brings a lifetime of experience rich with diversity, intellect, and human decency. Anyone who is lucky enough to have her in their homes will absolutely value her.
