Hi my name is Sara, my passion for children is incredibly strong. I love spending time and caring for newborns, infants and children. I have a bachelors in Public Health, I am CPR and First Aid certified, a certified Lactation Educator (CLE), a Postpartum Doula and bilingual in Spanish. As a babysitter, nanny and doula, I work various hours: from daytime, evenings, night-time and overnight. I have 14 years of experience of taking care of newborns, infants and children of all ages. I as well have been a caregiver for children and people with Autism, been a camp counselor, worked and assisted at a daycare, tutor preschool, kindergarten, elementary and middle school children. Due to my education background I am not only able to provide an educational aspect to your child's care, but all of the infant and child rearing that are reliable facts and backed up by research and evidence-based sources. Furthermore, I provide a safe, caring, developmentally and appropriate environment for every newborn, infant and child. My focus is to provide and build a strong healthy early care and education experience that promotes each infant and child to be physically, mentally and emotionally healthy. My ultimate goal is to support infants and children's desire to be life-long learners. Thank you for taking the time to read.

Hi, I’m Ariel! I bring over 12 years of childcare experience, including 6 years as a professional nanny and many more through babysitting and volunteering. My passion for caregiving began in middle school while helping in my mom’s home daycare, and it has grown into a fulfilling career. I have experience caring for children of all ages and needs, including those with autism, non-verbal communication, and other neurodivergent profiles. I’m trained in emotional regulation, sensory activities, positive reinforcement, visual schedules, and administering care such as G-tube feeding and breathing treatments. With a clean driving record and background check, I prioritize safety, clear communication, and creating a nurturing environment. I love incorporating creative, developmental art projects into daily routines (with your consent!) and am happy to care for pets too. Now based in Southern California, I’m open to a variety of schedules and would love to connect with families in need of a reliable, compassionate nanny or personal assistant. Let’s chat to see if we’re a good fit!

My experience includes working for Channel Island Social services where I provided childcare for children in foster homes as well as individuals with disabilities. Along with this, I worked with a private family for 6 years on a part time basis until the children were old enough they no longer needed supervision. I have provided care for individuals from ages newborn to 23 years old. Working with children is my passion. I enjoy assisting children with their curiosity while creating a fun, safe, and loving environment for them to thrive. Finding or creating age appropriate games and activities to help children thrive is something I have become to enjoy.

I love children, I believe they can get us the best we have. Spending time with them helps us to be and return to be children. Have the ability to love someone who is not ours and take care of it as it were. Amo criança, acredito que elas conseguem nos tirar o que temos de melhor. Passar tempo com elas nos ajudam a ser e a voltar ser crianças. Ter a habilidade de amar alguém que não é nosso e cuidar como se fosse. (Sou brasileira)

Hi, I have had many experience with babies and children. Growing up in my family my sister and I were always the designated babysitters, we grew up around so many younger cousins ages 6 months 12 years of age. I love kids, I worked last year at a local community center called West Park in Ventura where I did summer camp and after school program. I would have a group of 10 kids at least by myself, that would range from 5-12 years old. We would do outdoor activities, sports, board games, or I would help with homework. I am a recent college graduate from Cal State Long Beach, bachelors in sociology. I plan to further my education in hopes to be a school counselor. In my free times, I love being outdoors, going to the beach, hiking, reading, working out, and spending times with my family. I would love to help you look after your child and treat them as my own family in your busy work schedule or when you and your significant other need a date night.

Hello! My name is Mayra, I have been babysitting since I was 16 years old. With five younger siblings it comes naturally for me to be a caregiver. I am very patient, caring and trustworthy. I adapt to every family and I make sure to always communicate. I have experience with every age range and can help with laundry, cleaning, light cooking, running errands, tutoring and drop-offs/pick-ups. I also have experience tutoring in English, Math, Spanish, and Social Sciences so I can provide homework help. My experience with kids with learning disabilities and autism has prepared me to adapt to any situation. I look forward to hearing from you.
