Hi my name is Abby Lagrange and I am a graduate from the University of Oregon. I graduated with a Family Human Services degree studying to be a social worker in foster care. My number one passion is working with and helping kids in any way that I can. I have been a nanny since I was 16 and I have always had a passion for it. I just finished working as a part time nanny for a family from 2021-2023, while I was getting my degree. I have worked with children ages from, 4 months old to 14 years old. I love being a nanny because it's such a privilege to watch a child grow up before your eyes while creating such a bond with them and their families. I would love to have the chance to meet so many more families and create so many new bonds and relationships with them. I also do any chores around the house such as dishes, laundry, cooking, meal prep and running errands, etc. I am very energetic and it is easy for me to keep up with the kiddos! My passion for working with kids has been something that has also driven me throughout my life. My one hope for my future is to help as many kids as I can in whatever way I can.

Hello, my name is Bianca . I am responding with enthusiasm to your job posting for nanny or babysitter. My childcare career started in London, I cared for triplets while both parents were working full-time. The children were dropped off at my home at 7:00am and picked up at 5:00 after a full day of feeding, napping, playing, reading and trips to the local park. One of my most memorable childcare experiences was as a volunteer as a room mom at my daughters school, Grant School in Mission Hills, California. I would help the teachers each year in their classroom with whatever they would need. This included support in the classroom, arranging and supervising field trips and extracurricular activities. At this time I was also working for a family in Del Cerro as a house manager and nanny of their twin girls. I am convinced that my verifiable experience and abilities make me an excellent candidate for this position. My references show me to be responsible and reliable, caring and always willing to help out wherever needed.

Hello Parents, Im Lisa, a 52 year old energetic responsible and mature woman with a background check. I'm drug, Alcohol & smoke free. I have a truck, car, car seat, clean driver's license and full insurance. I've been babysitting since I was 12 years old which gives me 34 years of experience. I also pet sit so if you are out of town I can watch your furry baby's too. Other experience; premie babies, 4 days old babies, LOTS of twins and a 3 year old triplets, children with autism, ADHD, Asperger, Down syndrome, asthma and special diets such as gluten-free & dairy free. -2019 I was caring for twin girls since they were 4 months old 2 days a week until they were a year old. - 7/2011 - 7/2017 I was watching Kai from 13 months old till 7. Kai has Autism, delayed walking & speech, many food allergies and some behavioral issues. I watched Kai for an occasional date night & then every Sunday. On Sunday's I picked him up at 8 am at his house in La Jolla. I then drove him to Poway for a soccer class followed by breakfast at a local restaurant. Afterwards we would go to a local park/library/zoo/sea world/movie during the middle of the day. At 3 I would drive him to his 3:30 therapy horseback riding where his parents pick him up at 4. Kai would also sleep over at my home 1 night every couple of months so his parents can have a night away. Kai is gluten free & dairy free so I can follow a stick food program. I also house sit & dog sat when they went out of town. Sadly after watching Kai for 6 years he has moved out of state on July 2016 to be closer to his grandparents. 2- 2009-2018 Samantha age 12 and Stephanie is 9 years old. I had been watching the girls since they were 3 years old and 4 months old. I saw this family about once every other month. 3- 2015 - 2018; I had been watching Sam since he was 4 months old and he is now 3 years old . I saw this family every other month. This is a VERY small part of my babysitting history. If you have any other questions feel free to ask me. Thank you very much for considering me, Lisa
