I am a nanny and babysitter residing in Newport Coast. I have several years of experience caring for children ranging from infants to pre-teens. I chose to be a nanny because I find teaching and caring for children very fulfilling. I appreciate the privilege of being a positive influence in their lives. I am currently available for occasional and regular babysitting in the evenings. Looking forward to meeting you and your little one soon!

Hello ! My name is Leannah and I'm so excited to meet you! I graduated from UC Davis in 2022 and grew up in the Bay Area. My journey as a babysitter began from a young age, having to watch over my younger siblings while my parent was away at work. I have since utilized that experience to help out many families and have had awesome experiences. I find that children have always connected to my personality and my exciting spirit. Aside from babysitting, I have done all sorts of jobs from cashiering to volunteering at pet shelters to even providing care for the elderly. However because I was raised to be super family-oriented, I’ve always loved being a babysitter;it truly is the most rewarding and fulfilling job out there. Children are a delightful gift: they bring so much joy to my heart and make every day so much better. Playing outside, playing games and encouraging children to use their imagination is something that I am passionate about. The relationship that you’re able to build with a family is something you can’t really find in the work world.

Hi! My name is Isabel and I have been doing caretaking as a part time job for over 5 years now. I have experience from all age ranges and multiple kiddos at a time. I genuinely love to do this every so often as a way to connect with myself. It helps me be creative and kind, I appreciate that feeling the most. I understand the needs of a family very early on and am able to connect with children almost immediately. I am trustworthy, kind spirited, and approach things from a nurturing perspective. I have CPR training and worked as a RBT, I sometimes like to implement that training when it comes to behaviors. Overall, I believe in patience and love to take care of kids!

I’m Basic Life Support (BLS) certified by the AHA so your little ones are in safe, caring, and capable hands. My passion for helping others extends to hardworking parents and guardians who just need an extra hand. I truly appreciate that some families may seek caregivers who share their cultural background or speak the same language. While I am an African American nanny and my primary language is English, I believe that genuine care, trust, and connection transcend cultural differences. I’m also a big animal lover, so your furry family members are always welcome too! What I Offer: Fun, responsible, and attentive childcare Light cleaning, laundry, and snack prep Safe and engaging outings (I have a clean driving record, just ask your little ones where they’d like to go!)

Part-time: I accept Cash-app, Apple Pay, or Venmo. Disclaimers: I do not mind being recorded on the job. I’m there to make your life easier and your child’s/children’s healthier. We are a team! 🧸♥️
