Hi there! My name is Ofonimeh! I also go by Tayo! I’m 26 and I’m finishing up my last semester at ASU. I've been a sitter/nanny for 8 years. Most of my experience comes from being an occasional/date night sitter. Over the last two years I've transitioned into being a full-time nanny. I believe in making the effort to provide a safe and comfortable space for the child/children. Nannies are a big part of a child's development. I want to be as supportive and nurturing as I can. I love arts and crafts. Painting, coloring, and making bracelets are some of the things I've done. I'm also a fan of baking with the kids. It's educational and fun!

Hi! I have 10 years of paid childcare experience caring for infants up to 12 years old. I’m also a personal assistant, house manager, pet sitter, and mother's helper. I've been a full time nanny the last several years and I worked in a daycare for a year. I've been babysitting for families long term and short term over the last 10 years. I love kids and staying busy and occupied with crafts, going to the park and fun learning activities! I have a clean background check, a reliable car, and i’ve been driving kids so i’m completely comfortable with it! I'm also CPR and First Aid certified. I have a very open and flexible schedule, looking for part time or full time and long term and I can also do fill ins and date nights as well. I'm also open to running errands, cleaning up around the house, caring for animals, driving kids around, chores, etc... My rate is negotiable, let me know if I can help! Have a great day

I’m a 52 yr old mother with 2 wonderful children my son is 24, and my daughter is 21, and my husband and I have been married for 24 yrs. Like every other little girl I started babysitting for neighbors, and my church family. I really enjoyed it so I decided to take the Blue Cross/Blue Shield baby-sitting course. While I was in high school I worked for daycare centers. After graduation I went back to school to get my nurses licenses. I worked with geriatrics patients.(elderly) and was going to school to be a nurse, plans changed and I got married and moved to Germany (Army) and started having children of my own I then started my in-home child care of 24 years. I have been a Nanny for one of the little girls from my daycare for 6 years 😥 long story short she is extremely sick in Children's Hospital. I'm reopening a very small nanny like in home childcare with no more than 3/4 younger kids/babies that way they recieve more 1 on 1 time with the interaction of a few other babies. I will be available for drop-in, part-time care and possibly more. I will play with play-doh, color, draw with sidewalk chalk, ABC's, 123's, and read age appropriate books. Naps will be scheduled. Naps aren't required, but quiet time is. I will try to get to the park in the spring/fall. We'll have water activities during the summer to stay cool. All the fun stuff I do with the children is great, but the most important thing I can tell you is I'm a mother, and I know what it means to love a child, and to want them to always be safe, and feel loved. If this sounds like what your family is looking for please contact me so we can set up a time to meet. Look forward to meeting your family. 6 2 3 52 3 2 7o 2 References available

Hello! My name is Perla and my unexpected nanny career start dates back to 2016. I have two younger sisters with a 12 & 16 year age age gap with so alot of my early teen life revolved around diapers. I’ve always loved the idea of being a teacher or an L&D RN however someway I ended up in the Medical and Forensic Laboratory work. All through my Associates & later Bachelors program I worked multiple Hospitals within Banner & Honor Health as well as a nanny and date night babysitting. Fast forward to working what I thought was my “dream job”.. 14 months in, I quit. I was burnt out & right as covid hit(& working for a good chunk of it)I left my PRN/float work at all hospitals. I ended up falling into the nanny work through an agency & shorty after my life changed. I’m currently a travel nanny with an AMAZING family with amazing little versions of them. Given the biggest time is spent with them traveling(both domestic and international) I find myself with a lot of free time during the week. So as director of fun & safety I’m confident I would be a great fit for those couple days of needed help, date nights, etc. My references would happy agree I’m an organized, punctual & professional nanny. I’m also fluent in reading writing & speaking spanish and extensive experience with ISR swim. Please don’t hesitate to reach out and I’d happily send over my resume and references!

Hello my name is Bel I am 25 years old and I am excited to meet you! I have experience working as a teachers assistant in a Montessori elementary school and held my own class in daycare. I have over 5 years of experience as a nanny, (ages ranging from infant to teen). I have worked with UHNW families, as a nanny/personal assistant/house manager. I have my own transportation, I'm a non smoker and I love your pets.

I have over 20 years of babysitting experience (and have references). I specialize in infants (& multiples). Feel free to text me at (480) 812-5771 if you'd like to meet. I have been babysitting since I was 11 (regular job every day after school and weekends). As a college student, I really missed children so I quit my “real job” and signed up to be on UCLA’s babysitting list (and babysat for many families). ;) I babysat overnight for four children for up to ten days at a time (while their mother joined their father on business travel). I love to stay with the same family, so I babysat for one family for 10 years (even after I graduated & until I got married, watching a 5 year old and then 2 siblings from birth until 5 & 10 years). After raising two children of my own, I worked as a nanny specializing in newborns and multiples. I had three children who were 2 and under in my care (a two year old and newborn twins). I love children and emphasize learning and development. I believe in helping children to grow in all aspects. As such, we do imaginative play, building, physical exercise, singing, dancing, arts & crafts, board games, walks, park & playground visits, field trips (if permissible), and tons of reading. I’m a proponent of educational toys and I use playtime as a learning opportunity (colors, shapes, numbers, letters, etc.). From birth, I talk to the babies, constantly describing their surrounding, telling them what activities I am engaging in, etc. I am quite experienced in care of all ages, but especially the involved care of newborns (changing, feeding, burping, bunting, teaching to self-sooth, helping to put on a schedule, etc.). I can also help with nursing, pumping, etc. I have worked with autistic children (with Dr. Lovaas at UCLA), providing behavior modification & speech therapy. I am patient, compassionate, kind, loving (I might get a little too attached; I miss the children when I am off on the weekend!), and adopt the child-rearing philosophy of the parents that I work for. I prefer to be organized and to have structure & discipline. I am reliable and punctual, too. Thank you, Jennifer

Hi! I’m Ali. I’ve been a babysitter, starting as a mother’s helper since age 12, with now 15+ years of hands on sitter experience with all ages. I’ve worked as a private nanny for the past 6+ years helping families navigate newborn - toddler phases and beyond. I have a passion for wellness and understand how important it is for young kids to have a stable and reliable caregiver whom they feel safe and connected to beyond the home unit. I love connecting with families to provide the full scope of childcare, helping parents find time to nurture their own needs and feel at peace knowing their kids are in loving hands. I’ve worked alongside a nurse and newborn care specialist for years, have extensive experience with infants & toddlers though my passion for play extends through all ages. Whether it’s homework help, crafts or outdoor fun, I’ve done it all with a range of ages and always foster a positive and supportive environment. I have families I’ve worked with for 10+ years that are still connected to me and apart of my caregiving network. I’m available for part-time care, date nights and weekend help, and willing to travel as well. It truly takes a village and I would love to be apart of yours!
