Find experienced nannies in Downey, CA

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!

Hi! I’m Arlene, although most of the children I care for know me as Leni. What makes my childcare experience a little unique is my background in veterinary nursing, which has given me a strong level of preparedness, medical awareness, and confidence when handling situations that require extra care or attention.

I have experience caring for infants through 12-year-olds, including nanny shares, siblings, and multiples. I’m bilingual in English and Spanish, CPR certified, and background checked.

I am an individual with over eight years of experience in child care and also with older adults with intellectual disabilities.

I am also responsible for transporting individuals in my personal vehicle. One of my favorite parts of the job is actively participating in daily activities, like playing with infants, teaching them to speak their first words, or guiding them during mealtime routines. I am certified in CPR and First Aid. I am friendly, reliable, and passionate about building strong connections with both children and adults. I am currently available in the afternoons and on weekends. Communication is very important to me, so please don’t hesitate to reach out to request references or to schedule a call.
