Camilla C., Nanny in Fountain Valley, CA 92708 with 10 years of paid experience

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.

Isabel G., Nanny in Fountain Valley, CA 92708 with 5 years of paid experience

Hi! My name is Isabel and I have been doing caretaking as a part time job for over 5 years now. I have experience from all age ranges and multiple kiddos at a time. I genuinely love to do this every so often as a way to connect with myself. It helps me be creative and kind, I appreciate that feeling the most. I understand the needs of a family very early on and am able to connect with children almost immediately. I am trustworthy, kind spirited, and approach things from a nurturing perspective. I have CPR training and worked as a RBT, I sometimes like to implement that training when it comes to behaviors. Overall, I believe in patience and love to take care of kids!

Cynthia is THE BEST! We’ve been visiting Laguna Beach for a few weeks and she has been a godsend, caring for our five month old while we work remotely. She has been communicative and professional, and extremely sweet and attentive to our little guy. I can’t recommend her enough!

Heather A., Nanny in Fountain Valley, CA 92708 with 12 years of paid experience

I love kids and have lots of energy to keep up with them! I am highly qualified and have excellent experience and recommendations. I speak nearly fluent French, some Spanish, tutor academics, and teach swim lessons. I also have experience teaching at St. Matthew’s Parish School and coaching their swim team. I recently graduated from the University of Miami, FL with a degree in Neuroscience where I was a member of the University's Swim & Dive team.  I have been a competitive swimmer for 17 years and have competed in 2 Olympic Games.  Although I was born in the US, I have dual citizenship to Mauritius which allowed me this opportunity.  Swimming has taught me hard work and time management. I have taught/coached swimming to individuals ages 1-65. I was previously head coach of a girls' high school swim team, masters coach, and club team coach. Therefore, I am CPR and first aid certified (Lifeguard Certified for infants, children, adults). I was born in Minnesota (where my family resides) with two younger sisters (current ages 14 and 18) whom I helped care for on a regular basis while growing up. I have lots of energy and am very creative.  I love to play games and do art projects with kids.  I love playing outside and getting fresh air instead of sitting in front of the TV and computer screen all day.  Trips to the local park or museum are always an option for me!  I have enough energy and patience to keep up with children.

Jessica R., Nanny in Fountain Valley, CA 92708 with 15 years of paid experience

I have extensive experience working with children and have consistently been recognized by parents for my ability to build strong, trusting relationships with both children and families. Many families have felt confident hiring me after seeing my natural interaction with children and the safe, nurturing environment I provide. I am dependable, compassionate, patient, and highly trustworthy when it comes to caring for children and supporting their well-being. In addition to my childcare experience, I have worked full-time in healthcare for nearly 10 years at one of the largest hospitals in Southern California. I am currently seeking a part-time opportunity as I prepare to begin an RN program and continue advancing my career in nursing.
