Hi y’all! I’m Maddrey (lovingly nicknamed Maddrey Poppins) a college-educated, fully vaccinated, career nanny with over 10 years of experience as a babysitter, teacher (PK2-8th grade), tutor (elementary school), and nursery/daycare supervisor ready for work in the Glendale and East Los Angeles area. I've worked with children as young as 8 weeks up to young teens and I'm CPR, AED, and First Aid Certified from infant through adult. When I work with kids I enjoy creating fun snacks, playing games (just taught a children’s Dungeons and Dragon’s course) goofing around, and being outside on a beautiful day! I have an arts background that provides me with a creativity that can support any child’s strengths. My care style boils down to the idea that any activity or experience is a teaching opportunity and that’s there’s always a spoonful of sugar to help the medicine go down. I think emotional literacy, empathy, and the comfort to feel big feelings is one of the most important parts of raising a child. I have a dog and cat so I get along with any furry friend you may have! I have a reliable car and a clean driving record (except a parking meter ticket in West Hollywood from 2017 that I’m still bitter about!). Most recently I nannied for a trio of kids 7,10, and 13 with tons of extracurricular activities. The only reason I left this family is because I had to move. Previously I’ve nannied a two year old girl, brothers ages 2 and 3, a 15 month old girl, a pair of sisters 10 and 6, boy/girl 7 year old twins, another 15 month old girl, and twin 9 year old girls. All of whose families would absolutely love to provide references. I'm looking for part time work but my hours are flexible. My rate is negotiable but I have a long-standing background in childcare with unbeatable references and that’s just the tip of the iceberg of what I bring to your families! I can’t wait to meet you and make your lives easier in any way I can!

Ariana L.

Hello! My name is Ariana, I’m 32 years old, and I’m an experienced nanny and babysitter currently based in Los Angeles for the past 3 years (previously was in NYC). I have over six years of childcare experience working with children ages 5–15, alongside seven years of professional experience in the tech industry. While I've only professionally worked with children from the ages of 5-15, I would still love the opportunity to support a family with a child under the age of 5! In addition to my childcare experience, I hold a Bachelor of Music degree with a minor in English Literature from Loyola University New Orleans, and I work as a professional vocalist and songwriter. My passion for childcare was inspired by my mother, who has dedicated over 30 years to the field in early childcare and childhood education. My most recent nanny positions were in New York City (2016–2018), where I cared for two families: one with three children (ages 5, 8, and 10) and another with two children (ages 7 and 11). I do own a car and can drive my car or a family car. I'm a very confident, reliable and safe driver and in NYC, I would haul around 3-5 kids every day after school to various after school programs or to family around the city! I’m energetic, fun, warm, patient, light-hearted and responsible, and highly reliable. I enjoy engaging kids in creative and enriching activities such as games, arts and crafts, music, imaginative play, baking, and cooking. I’m equally comfortable helping with homework, managing schedules, driving to activities, and keeping the household running smoothly with cleaning, meal prep, and organization. I truly love working with children and teenagers and take pride in creating a safe, fun, and supportive environment for them to learn and grow. Thank you so much for considering my application!
