Hello, My name is Monica, I have many years experience working with young children. I would love to be your nanny if you think I'd make a good fit for your family. I currently reside in the San Fernando valley. A bit about myself: I have worked as a Teacher in a family owned daycare while i attendeded college. I then began my internship hours at a private school in Sylmar & once I completed two semesters of internship hours I was hired fulltime as a Preschool teacher & i worked there for 8 years. I then worked at a daycare for a few years. Then with the Pandemic I began to Nanny for a family with three children. I loved helping the children reach their milestones while keeping the parents up to date on every new milestone. Keeping children safe & happy is always important to me. I am flexible when changes arise & i can also follow a strict schedule to fit the needs of every parent. I am Bilingual, organized, and i enjoy helping others get organized. I am CPR certified, a Non-smoker, with a clean record. I love all pets/animals and children and animals love me too. I’d be happy to provide references from Co-workers, Parents, or a letter of recommendation from the Private school. If you have any questions feel free to message me, I look forward to hearing from you!

She was fantastic with our son from day one. Always on time, never had to remind her of anything, and genuinely cared about him. She was the best nanny we could have found for our first born boy. He still asks for her years later and we sometimes we get together. Thank you for everything Monica!

I’m CPR certified, have a clean driving record, and bring over 10 years of babysitting experience, including 5 years as a nanny/household assistant! As the oldest sibling to three younger brothers (ages 5, 8, and 13), I’ve been helping raise kids practically my whole life—and I absolutely love it! I enjoy nannying because I get to build meaningful connections with kids and create a fun, safe, and supportive environment where they can grow and thrive. In my free time, I love to spend time outdoors, be active, and bake desserts! I’m happy to answer any questions you may have. Looking forward to connecting with you!

Liscia was great to work with! She was very easy to communicate with and arrived right on time. She connected with my almost-2 year old instantly. She took great care of him and we came home to a happy boy. I would highly recommend Liscia!

Rocio cared for our daughter, Frankie, from the time she was 5 months old until she was 13 months, and we couldn’t have been more grateful to have her in our lives. At our request, Rocio spoke to Frankie exclusively in Spanish, which was an important part of our family’s language goals, and she did so with great skill and patience. Rocio was consistently on time, dependable, and incredibly helpful in every aspect of care. More importantly, she was truly loving and attentive to our baby girl. Frankie took to her immediately, and they formed a bond that gave us great peace of mind. Rocio took Frankie to the park daily, and it was wonderful to see her helping Frankie learn to interact with other babies. We only had to part ways with Rocio because of our move to Minnesota, and had we stayed, we would have kept her as long as possible. Any family would be lucky to have Rocio care for their children!

We had the pleasure of working with Nedy from when our daughter was 4 months old until she turned 1 year old. Nedy is warm, attentive, and genuinely caring. She engaged our daughter with songs, books, and toys. She spoke to her in Spanish as well! She never relied on screens, and we could tell she truly enjoyed her role and spending time with our daughter. Communication was very clear, and she consistently arrived on time. We would not hesitate to recommend her!

I'd describe my personality as honest, reliable, and very attentive. I stay calm in busy or stressful situations and make sure things are handled and running smoothly. I like working with kids because how they're treated when they're young really shapes who they become. I grew up in a structured environment with strong values, and that's something I bring into how I care for others. I've worked with kids from a young age, helping care for my younger brother and later babysitting for family friends and relatives, so I'm comfortable with different ages and situations. Being a team captain for a girls' tennis team also helped me build leadership skills and confidence managing groups. In my spare time, I enjoy makeup, crafts, staying active, volunteering and being outdoors. I'm naturally energetic and enjoy bringing a fun, positive energy that kids connect with. I'm very observant and adaptable, and I enjoy creating simple, interactive activities that keep kids engaged and involved.

Lily is hardworking, responsible and punctual. She has watched my son and several of my friend’s kids. I never worry when I’m away for just a few hours or even overnight. I know the kids are in great hands and they have fun with her as well! She doesn’t just watch them but also plays with them. They love her.

I thoroughly enjoy working with children and witnessing their growth and development over time. There’s nothing quite like seeing that “aha!” moment when they solve a problem. With experience in after-school care for PK-6th grades and currently teaching a lively classroom of 2.5 to 3-year-olds at a preschool, I’m passionate about supporting and celebrating each child’s unique learning journey. What sets me apart is my specialized education and enthusiasm for both nature-based and play-based learning approaches. With a solid background in educational theory and practice, I’m deeply committed to integrating nature-based learning, which immerses children in the natural world to spark curiosity and foster environmental stewardship. Equally, my passion for play-based learning emphasizes the importance of hands-on, experiential activities that stimulate creativity, problem-solving, and social skills. Together, these approaches create a dynamic and engaging learning environment where children thrive and explore their potential.

Hi! I'm Lexy! I have been an animal lover my whole life and have my own pet family. I enjoy spending time with other people's pets when they go on vacation or they are a little too busy. I have had dogs and cats my whole life and have about 3 years of experience working as a pet sitter! Although my main speciality is pet care for dogs and cats, I am also available to help with babysitting, household assistant tasks such as running errands, groceries, laundry, dishes, cleaning, helping with meal prep, etc., senior care such as driving to appointments, running errands, prescription pick up, keeping them company, etc. I have minimal experience working with children through my seasonal full time job as a school yearbook photographer. Although I do not have much experience working with children, I am reliable, responsible, and a quick learner. I don't drink alcohol, do drugs (including weed), and I don't smoke. I have a valid driver's license.
