Find experienced nannies in Castaic, CA

Growing up in a big family I was always around children! In addition to having a lot of younger cousins my parents had decided to have my two younger sisters. There is a 15 and 17 year age gap between me and them. As an older sister I was always willing to watch my siblings when my parents could not. When I first started babysitting I had the pleasure of nannying a family that had 5 children, the oldest being 13 and the youngest being 2 years old. Throughout my time as a nanny/babysitter I have cared for children ranging from 6 months to 13 years old. I do really enjoy taking care of these kids! Everyday is different and it is so amazing to see the world through their eyes.

I previously held a full-time position working for a family from 2020 up until last year, where I gained extensive experience caring for multiple children simultaneously. This included children as young as 6 months old, up to 10 years old, allowing me to actively contribute to their developmental milestones. My responsibilities encompassed a range of activities, from dancing and going for walks to swimming and engaging in creative activities like coloring. In addition to child-focused tasks, I also handled meal preparation and performed light housekeeping duties. My passion for nannying stems from the joy I derive from watching children grow and become an integral part of their lives. I've been complimented on my nurturing energy, and I firmly believe that every child benefits from such care and attention.

Hi my name is Heather. I am a stay at home mom of four kids, a wife of 26 years, and a dog mom to a labradoodle named Tinkerbell. My kids are 19, 17, 14 and 11. Prior to being a mom I loved working at a Child Care center called Sunshine for 6 years and then I worked at a local private school called Legacy Private Academy as a 2nd and 4th grade Assistant Teacher. At both Legacy and Sunshine I learned to get down on a child’s level, using positive reinforcement to mold and shape kids with love and positivity. I am careful to give clear expectations and to anticipate potential behavioral issues and catch them before they start. (An example of this would be giving a five minute warning if our play is coming to an end, to avoid a transition meltdown, when playing playdoh setting expectations before playing as far and how to use the playdoh appropriately etc. I love kids and enjoy playing with them and learning together. l appreciate going to the park and helping children with their homework, and reading books or playing games. My kids are getting older and I now have time to work again. You name it,I have done it all from rocking colicky babies, potty training , to teaching four kids their alphabet, sight words and how to read. I have focused on character development with my kids, molding them with self control, honesty, patience, kindness etc. I also model that same character, being someone who shows patience, compassion and being reliable in my life. I’m looking forward to soaking in some sweet kids from newborn and up. Please let me know your routine and guidelines, I will be happy to honor your wishes and follow them. I am mature and dependable, I will be careful to not be distracted by my phone as my attention will be on your little one. I am very safety conscious. I am CPR certified and Live scanned, happy to do a background check and references available. I look forward to hearing from you!
