I also have been babysitting for six years before that and gained a lot of tips, tricks and patience for kids of all ages. I have worked with infants, toddlers and school age.

Harmony was prompt, kind, flexible and respectful. She was very easy to deal with via text to go over details/expectations. My daughter had a great time with her. I would recommend her to other parents and use her again myself.

Hello! I am a passionate and dedicated childcare professional with several years of experience working with children of all ages, ranging from infants to teenagers. Over the years, I have gained valuable experience in a variety of settings, including public schools, special education, and as a nanny. My time working in these environments has allowed me to develop a deep understanding of each child's unique needs, fostering their growth and creating a nurturing environment for them to thrive. Currently, I am also a dance teacher, where I have the pleasure of guiding students in developing their creative expression and building confidence. I am a non-smoker with a clean driving record and can provide references upon request. I am eager to connect and learn more about the opportunities you have. Please feel free to reach out if you have any questions or would like to chat further! Looking forward to hearing from you soon!

Hi! I’m Jennifer, a warm, caring, and experienced nanny who truly loves what I do. I have experience caring for children of different ages and personalities, and I believe in creating a safe, nurturing, and fun environment where children feel comfortable being themselves. In addition to being a nanny, I’m also a certified postpartum doula, which has given me additional experience supporting families during the newborn and postpartum period. I’m passionate about helping parents feel supported while making sure their little ones are happy, cared for, and engaged. Outside of work, I’m a proud mom to my 15-year-old daughter, who has taught me so much about patience, love, and the different stages of childhood. I’m also a dog mom to my sweet 9-year-old pup! I’m dependable, compassionate, and someone who genuinely treats the children I care for as if they were my own. I love getting to know each child and finding activities that match their interests, whether that’s playing, reading, getting outside, doing crafts, or simply enjoying their day together.

Lauren V.

Hello, my name is Lauren! I am 29 years old. A little bit about myself. I work as a Specialized Paraprofessional in the school districts. I help special needs students, and care for their physical, emotional health and safety, affirming their abilities, and striving to promote dignity in all relationships. I am a graduate from Loyola Marymount University in Los Angeles with a bachelor’s in Health and Human Sciences and a Minor in Dance and Liberal Arts. I am in the process of pursuing graduate school for Occupational Therapy. A huge passion of mine is dancing. I have been dancing all of my life since the young age of three, which has taught me how to be dedicated, committed and passionate about something. Growing up, my Grandmother was the “nanny of the town.” I was always surrounded by kids when I was at her house. Watching my grandmother care and love for the children she watched instilled a natural care and love in my heart to want to do just as she did. I have been a babysitter/nanny for many years. I have had the pleasure of working for families who have had newborns to teens. I also have experience with watching and caring for children with special needs. I am an upbeat friendly person that will work hard to make sure that the children and parents are happy with my performance.

Hi! I’m Katie, a 28 year-old with over 10 years of babysitting/nannying experience caring for children of all ages. I love creating a fun, safe, and supportive environment where kids feel comfortable being themselves, whether we’re spending time outdoors, doing crafts (my favorite!), playing games, reading stories, or winding down with a bedtime routine. In addition to my childcare experience, I’ve worked as a Lead Medical Assistant for the past several years. I’m CPR and First Aid certified and have extensive experience caring for children with medical needs, including administering injections, monitoring glucose levels, and supporting children with Type 1 Diabetes, Celiac Disease, and other dietary or medical considerations. I understand how important it is for parents to feel confident that their child’s unique needs will be met with care and attention. My goal is to be a dependable, patient, and engaging sitter who helps children feel safe, happy, and cared for while giving parents peace of mind. Whether you’re looking for an occasional date-night sitter, weekend help, or someone to step in when you need an extra hand, I’d love the opportunity to get to know your family!

Tabatta was able to help me out while I was traveling. She answered texts right away, was on time, and my son had a blast with her. It’s so obvious how much she loves kids! If I lived in the area, I would hire her again in a heartbeat!
