Hello, I'm Ariana, and I am a a college student! Looking for some fun families that need help with their little ones. I am a kid at heart and love to watch Disney movies and explore the outside world. I am enthusiastic, caring, and love able. I have worked with other families in the past and all ended with some tears in the eyes when their little ones are grown and ready for school. I am CPR certified! Fully vaccinated! And have experience with all different types of children and each with their own personality! ;)

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!

Great with the kiddos. Was fun and speaks right away to the kiddos. Also clear and firm with boundaries, so they know she’s the one in charge. Great at keeping them on track for the evening and guiding the course of their time together!

My native language is Spanish, and I have an intermediate level of English. I have many years of experience caring for children of different ages, from newborns to 5 years old.

Bresnia was a wonderful caregiver to our daughter between the ages of 2 and 3. She is very kind, loving and playful and cared for our daughter with true tenderness. Bresnia was so imaginative, energetic and playful and we could see that our daughter was always laughing and having so much fun with her. She was very conscientious and always made sure to check with us to ensure she was following our schedule and our preferences. We highly recommend her as a caregiver.
Ivonne M.
- 4 years paid experience

Hello! My name is Ivonne Marquez and I live in Anaheim. I am 25 years old and I have around 4 years of paid experience. I have had the most wonderful experiences with the families I’ve worked with and it has been so rewarding seeing their little ones grow up. I have experience mostly with 1-3 year olds but have also have experience with older kids. I also have been a designated homeschool teacher for a whole school year, so homework help and tutoring is not a problem. I am comfortable with small children the youngest I cared for has been 9 months and my goal is always for them to be entertained, be taken care of,and to be safe. I gladly stick to any rules parents set with their children and understand when a parent trusts me with their kids it’s a huge deal so I take care of them like if they were my own. I am CPR/ First AID / AED certified, fluent in Spanish, have my own transportation and am really easy to get along both with parents and their children. I respect any precautions that may be needed coming into your home . I can provide negative Covid-19 test results and vaccine record if needed. Also references can be provided upon request. I don’t travel with families on vacations

I want to give a huge thank you to Ivonne for taking care of my baby twice a week for the past six months. She is an amazing caregiver who went above and beyond to keep my baby happy, comfortable, and engaged. Whether it was taking her to the park, drawing pictures, or reading to her, Ivonne always found ways to make my baby smile. I appreciated her reliability and knowledge of toddlers, which gave me peace of mind while I was working. I highly recommend Ivonne to any parent looking for a loving and trustworthy babysitter.

Dawn has been with our family full time for over 2 years. Our kids were 7 months and 2 when she started. I can't say enough great things about our time with her. She's like a true Mary Poppins. Teaching the kids, taking them on adventures, helping at home with cleaning and meal prep for the family, doing laundry and helping out in other ways. Our kids love her, always happy to see her for hugs. She brings them surprises and kept them entertained and engaged. As our kids transition into school, they are advanced in so many ways due to the care and teaching at home with Dawn. We sadly had to let her go due to our situation changing with kids in school and mom's work schedule changing. Dawn is truly a gem among nannies, and I highly recommend her. We had 4 nannies prior to her, and felt so lucky to have found her and worked with someone so experienced, nurturing, and helpful when our lives were at peak stress.
