I'm an energetic, dependable caregiver who connects naturally with kids, especially boys. I bring the patience and reliability of a seasoned adult with the playfulness of a "fun uncle." I keep kids active, engaged and happy through outdoor play, games, homework, activities and outings. With 20 years experience as a coach, mentor, tutor and caregiver, I especially enjoy being a positive male role model for boys--building confidence, curiosity, good habits and fun. I'm UCLA-educated, CPR-certified, and experienced with ASD & ADHD. I'm happy to help with homework, drive to school and activities, play at the park or beach, visit museums, follow family routines, or simply spend time with your children at home. I don't just supervise; I engage with kids, talk and play at their level, and build genuine relationships. My goal is to provide a safe, warm, active presence that children enjoy and parents trust. I value clear communication and hope to become a consistent, long-term family support.

As a single mom of an 8-year-old, finding someone I could truly trust with my son was incredibly important, and Kevin exceeded every expectation. He was dependable, communicative, and wonderful with my child... helping with school pickups, getting him to/from activities, and keeping him engaged and happy. What stood out most was the genuine connection he built with my son. He became not just a caregiver but a trusted friend of our family and a steady, positive male role model. My son always looked forward to the time they spent together, and I felt completely confident knowing he was in caring, capable hands. We only stopped working together because our family moved, and I wholeheartedly recommend him to any family looking for a responsible, kind and trustworthy caregiver!

Hello, my name is Alex, and I am a fun-loving caregiver with 8 years of experience across all age groups. I have a very flexible schedule, and I can often work last minute if needed! I am currently completing a master's in Counseling Psychology to become a marriage and family therapist, and I recently concluded nannying for 3 wonderful siblings aged 3, 6, and 8. I have two younger brothers whom I babysat for years, alongside various other preschool, elementary, and middle school-aged children. I have a BA in psychology and was fortunate to learn a great deal about child development during my education. I love art, music, and sports, so I can help keep your youngster entertained! I am also an experienced cook and am happy to take on household tasks such as meal preparation, cleaning, laundry, transportation, and animal care. I can also help with bedtime routines and stay late or overnight if needed. Whether you are looking for occasional or long-term care, I look forward to hearing from you!

Alex worked for us part time for a year and helped our household function. You would be lucky to hire Alex for any childcare needs. She has a great approach with the kids and is very flexible to help out with whatever you need. My 3 kids loved spending time with Alex (as did we!) and we would not hesitate to hire her for any childcare moving forward. She is amazing with young kids (our son was 3) as well as older (6-9) and lovingly holds boundaries while being very fun. We wish she could be part of our family for longer!

Hi! I'm Sabre. I'm 29 years old, based in Inglewood, and I genuinely love working with children. For the past 11+ years, I've had the privilege of caring for kids in a variety of settings. From babysitting and daycare to my current career in ABA therapy, where I work with children on the autism spectrum. Working with children isn't just something I do, it's what I've built my career around. I'm patient, dependable, playful when it's time to be, and calm when things get a little chaotic. Whether your child needs someone to keep up with their endless energy, help stick to a routine, or simply provide a safe, caring environment while you're away, I'm someone you can trust to treat them with kindness and genuine care. I know how important it is to leave your child with someone who feels like more than just a babysitter or nanny. My goal is always to give parents peace of mind while making sure the kids have a fun, engaging, and positive experience. I'm fully vaccinated for COVID-19 and happy to answer any questions you have. I'd love the chance to meet you and your family and see if we're a great fit. I hope to chat with you soon!

Nanette is the best sitter we've ever had!! She is the only person outside of my family that I have felt 100% comfortable leaving my daughter with. She always knows what to do and you can tell that she's a great mom, which is very important in my opinion! Nanette also looks after our dog when we're out of town, and every time she comes to pick her up, our dog gets overly excited. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Nanette to anyone!

Jessica is fantastic. She’s always on time and has been available even with short notice, which we really appreciate. My daughter felt comfortable with her immediately, even though Jessica was the first person outside our family to care for her. She has such a calm, reassuring energy and a very poised personality. I would definitely work with her again.

Hello I'm Camilla, I am not your average nanny. I am a nurturing musical nanny who prioritizes safety and communication with parents. When it comes to infants, I provide helpful tips for first time parents, from baby proofing to using music from the newborn stage to support comfort, learning, and early development. Research and KTLA News have shown how infants respond to music and its benefits for early brain activity, attention, and engagement. I have seen first hand how, right before my eyes, music promotes early speech and curiosity. Infants often sing or vocalize along with music before they can fully articulate words, helping them connect sounds to language and tasks, even venturing into math. As a responsive and listening nanny, I have great success communicating with toddlers. I anticipate outcomes and help them navigate moments of frustration. As early as nine months, I teach rhythm, movement, rhyming, and how syllables connect in children as young as two. These patterns support early reading skills and encourage critical thinking. With a background in nursing and music, it is incredibly rewarding to see babies recognize my songs, then hear toddlers sing them and become engaged when I read to them. In my spare time I enjoy writing stories and composing songs that support developmental milestones. Music is one of my tools to soothe and stimulate infants while helping toddlers and young children navigate boundaries, new skills, potty training, and challenging moments. I compose songs that meet children's needs, bring enjoyment, and promote self esteem while encouraging them to keep trying. I also apply principles from Music Therapy and Occupational Therapy to support learning and development. Including children's individual interests helps build strong connections and spark curiosity. I am confident providing homework support and engaging children in creative arts activities. I bring a strong work ethic and can be counted on to be reliable and dedicated. I studied Music at UCLA and have a passion for teaching. I promote healthy snacks, stay up to date on vaccinations, and follow hygiene guidelines. I am available full or part time, for date nights, and as a mothers helper. I am comfortable around pets and have plenty of energy to keep up with growing little ones. Thank you for reading.

Camilla is so kind and sweet to our son, who is 3 years old. She has watched him many times now and he’s always happy and learning new things with her. I would definitely recommend her as a caring nanny!
Maritza V.

I’m a college student studying health sciences with a genuine love for working with kids and creating a safe, positive environment for them. I have several years of babysitting experience caring for my 8 nieces and nephews, with ages ranging from toddlers to preteens, so I’m comfortable adapting to different personalities, routines, and needs—whether that’s playtime, helping with homework, or keeping things on schedule. I’m CPR and First Aid trained, reliable, patient, and attentive, and I always aim to make both kids and parents feel comfortable, supported, and confident in my care. Some of my hobbies include cooking, baking, playing games, and spending time with animals, so I’m happy to help in homes with pets. I have open availability that can meet your desired needs.

Maritza is part of our family now. We will be using her for as long as she decides to work alongside our family. She was very welcoming in our initial interview and even though we have only just started with her. My wife, Mother in law and sister in law who have meet her all say the same thing, she brings an an energy of positivity and trust.

I am a 47 year old mom to a 15 year old wonderful young man. I started taking care of children when I was 13 years old. I love children and want them to have a positive healthy atmosphere and good nutrition. I think structure is important like having a consistent routine for sleep and eating. I feel that music should be on most of the time. I was born in New York to immigrant parents from Greece. I speak Greek fluently and have studied other languages including French and Spanish. I love to cook, bake, go fishing and garden. I have experience with children with special needs and understand the challenges and joys that come from them.

Alana W.
Our family, especially my three children, absolutely adored “Argi.” She introduced all of us to new cultural aspects and ways of life. She taught my children with passion, care, patience, humor, and she’s an amazing cook as well. She put strong emphasis on healthy choices and nutrition in every meal and does it with endless amounts of love and care. She is respectful of other cultures and traditions. She knows how to get my kids to open up and share their concerns with her. For example, my daughter who was going through some tough times with school so Argi would always make it a point to do special little things for her and constantly reminding her how strong and resilient she is, giving her confidence to overcome anything that got in her way. My son who does not like to try new food now discovers that he likes Greek and Mediterranean cuisine. She’s the biggest cheerleader and supporter to all three kids with their sports and always shows up to support them.At times when I find myself at odds with my children lol, Argi becomes the peacemaker middleman trying to help us understand each other’s perspectives. She brings a lifetime of experience rich with diversity, intellect, and human decency. Anyone who is lucky enough to have her in their homes will absolutely value her.

Hi, my name is Mia Staten. I have worked with children from infant to teenage years as a nanny, teacher, coach and more. I have plenty of experience with infants/toddlers and working with parents as their child reaches their new stages of development, having my BA in Child and Adolescents development helps me navigate. I was very interested in this position and know that I am fully qualified.I am a warm, kind, loving, organized, flexible, proactive,high energy, a multitasker and problem solver, discreet, honest, possess strong communication skills, with a positive attitude and personality. I have an intuitive understanding of children, are aware of developmental milestones and are active, fun and great communicators. I have a knack for engaging with curious, intelligent children.

My goal is to meet your children where they are and help them grow in all areas to reach their developmental goals as well as have fun. I have multiple references of families that I have worked with including the most recent family I worked with the last few years.
