I have worked with children for all of my young adult life. Hello, my name is Riley Saponar. I’m a 27 year old nanny who has 13 years of childcare experience. When I was in high school I worked as an assistant Hebrew school teacher in my synagogue. During the summers of high school I worked as a camp counselor at a Jewish sleep away camp. After my first year of college I began working as an assistant preschool teacher at a Jewish preschool. I took a semester off from school and continued working at the preschool. I moved to Los Angeles at age 22 to become independent from my parents and have worked as a nanny for a newborn baby boy, and babysitter for several families. I have worked as a Sunday School teacher for 2nd-3rd graders at Burbank temple Emanu el and as a substitute preschool teacher at Read more both locations of village tree preschool (1yr-4yr olds). I nannied for a nine month old baby and her 2 years old brother. I’ve worked as a teacher at an outdoor school for ages 3-9 years old. I was an assistant preschool teacher and music teacher at a French immersion preschool. I was a full time nanny for a one year old boy. Currently I’m working with an 8 month old baby boy until the end of June.

Riley looked after our 18 month old during a heatwave week, and did a great job keeping him safe on the splash pad and with indoor play. They were amazingly punctual and communicative. Riley would be an awesome fit for a young baby or parents using RIE method.

Riley has been our family's nanny for the past four months and they have been a godsend! As new parents, we were extremely nervous about hiring a nanny who not only met our basic needs but represented the standard of care, values, and nurturing attitude we want for our baby. Riley has brought such genuine love and kindness into our home. They are easygoing, kind, responsible and trustworthy—always on time, absolutely honest and transparent, and receptive when receiving feedback. Riley has also been flexible and understanding about working as our nanny in our not-huge two-bedroom apartment while both of us work from home. Our baby loves Riley and bursts into huge smiles every morning when they arrive. With Riley in our lives we went from having no help or support with childcare—we live far from family—to having a trusted ally we knew we could leave our baby with and put our minds at ease so that we can work and take care of ourselves. We can't recommend Riley highly enough!

We met with Riley as a potential nanny for our son. While we ended up working with another nanny, I wanted to share how kind, communicative and thoughtful they were through the process. Their values and care for others is clear, and I am sure they would be a fantastic nanny should a family be so lucky!
