Bresnia was a wonderful caregiver to our daughter between the ages of 2 and 3. She is very kind, loving and playful and cared for our daughter with true tenderness. Bresnia was so imaginative, energetic and playful and we could see that our daughter was always laughing and having so much fun with her. She was very conscientious and always made sure to check with us to ensure she was following our schedule and our preferences. We highly recommend her as a caregiver.

Karen was great with our two kids (ages 7 & 9.) She was incredibly competent, took notes when we gave her instructions, and even tidied our house a bit without us asking her to do so! I highly recommend using her as your sitter and wouldn’t hesitate to hire her again.

Hi my name is Ashley! I have 16+ years experience with children of all Ages. I have my CPR/AED& FIRST AIDE CERTIFICATE. I started out as a babysitter at 14 and got a job at TLC, an after school daycare program and was working there at the age of 16. We would take the children during the summer to amusement parks like wild rivers, Knottsberry farm, Sea world, Disneyland, movie theaters and etc... so it was a lot of patience and responsibility to make sure they were safe and having fun at the same time. I absolutely loved it . After working at TLC I was offered a nanny job by one of the parents. I watched the children for a while and then they grew up like all children do hehehe I then went on to nanny after that for a three and six-year-old and just kept being a nanny. I eventually started working at Us Too Gymnasitcs for a couple of years. It is a non-profit Organization working with children that have special needs and children without any special needs.. the ages range from1& a half all the ways to 23 years old. We worked on behavior, taking turns, helping children that are non-verbal speak and we do a lot there and the parents instead of calling it an actual gym they call it a gem... so sweet. I also work as Respite care taker for special needs but the hours are on my terms. I am looking mostly for a Full-time position as a nanny or also it could be maybe 2 part-time jobs. I adore working with children. I have great references and can start immediately ....also I LOVE animals if you have any!! I am nurturing, kind, respectful, VERY patient, fun, reliable, clean, honest, creative and just a very down to earth happy person that enjoys to live life. I love the outdoors, taking children to their favorite parks, listening to music, doing arts and crafts, sports, and help with reading/homework, encouraging them and whatever the children are interested in..I'm up for it!!..Pretty much having fun happens while I'm with the kids!!! I always want to put smiles on their faces the whole time I'm with them and hopefully after I leave too hehe.. I am very flexible and like I said, I could start today or tomorrow. I am open to anything. Thank you for your time and I look forward to meeting you!! ~Ashley

Ashley was our part time nanny and I am so impressed with her knowledge of how to care for our baby. She is caring, king, enthusiastic, and capable. We learned a lot from her and recommend her to any family looking for a nanny/ house manager/ caregiver.

I am CPR and First Aid certified, fully vaccinated, fluent in Spanish, maintain a clean DMV record, and have a clear basic background check. I am also flexible and available to support families with last-minute childcare needs. I understand how important it is to find a trustworthy and dependable caregiver.

Dawn has been with our family full time for over 2 years. Our kids were 7 months and 2 when she started. I can't say enough great things about our time with her. She's like a true Mary Poppins. Teaching the kids, taking them on adventures, helping at home with cleaning and meal prep for the family, doing laundry and helping out in other ways. Our kids love her, always happy to see her for hugs. She brings them surprises and kept them entertained and engaged. As our kids transition into school, they are advanced in so many ways due to the care and teaching at home with Dawn. We sadly had to let her go due to our situation changing with kids in school and mom's work schedule changing. Dawn is truly a gem among nannies, and I highly recommend her. We had 4 nannies prior to her, and felt so lucky to have found her and worked with someone so experienced, nurturing, and helpful when our lives were at peak stress.
