I’m Harrison im from Los Angeles, I have 5+ years of child care experience with children that are nuero divergent (autism, cerebral palsy) specifically as well as non nuero divergent children, I’m an aspiring chef and in my spare time I work on a food pop up that I run with my girlfriend, I got into child care because I have younger sister with cerebral palsy and when I was younger we had a nanny that was the absolute best she was such an amazing help with me and my sister I really recognize her impact on my household and how much it helped us out, and It motivated me to want to do childcare because I thought i could hopefully be that positive impact as well, I am also very good with dogs of all sizes and breed I have 3 dogs a Doberman and 2 belgion malenois and me and my girlfriend and have rescued 2 Additional malenois in the past 6 months. So I’m more than comfortable doing anything that’s needs doing with any type of dog that your family may have. Also with my culinary experience I’m more than happy to cook for your children as well.

Hey Kids! I have a knack for transforming into your favorite animals, arranging and putting on performances together for your parents, sketching characters we imagine together, or drawing mazes for you to solve. It helps that I've studied fine arts and acting most of my life! I love exploring outside, climbing trees and jungle gyms. I love racing, chasing, and playing tag until our bellies hurt from laughing and we're so worn out that we fall asleep without even trying. My mom signed me up for years of ballet growing up, and I even performed with the Washington Ballet in Nutcracker and other shows, but I discovered I'm more passionate about martial arts and eventually I became an expert in stage combat. Some kids I've worked with had special needs like language delay, Williams Syndrome, Down's, autism, or physical limitations. We had fun designing games together just for them! I think it's really important to treat you with respect and care as an individual. I'm an expert at having lots of fun while keeping you healthy and safe.

- 6 years paid experience

Hi, I’m Ariel! I bring over 12 years of childcare experience, including 6 years as a professional nanny and many more through babysitting and volunteering. My passion for caregiving began in middle school while helping in my mom’s home daycare, and it has grown into a fulfilling career. I have experience caring for children of all ages and needs, including those with autism, non-verbal communication, and other neurodivergent profiles. I’m trained in emotional regulation, sensory activities, positive reinforcement, visual schedules, and administering care such as G-tube feeding and breathing treatments. With a clean driving record and background check, I prioritize safety, clear communication, and creating a nurturing environment. I love incorporating creative, developmental art projects into daily routines (with your consent!) and am happy to care for pets too. Now based in Southern California, I’m open to a variety of schedules and would love to connect with families in need of a reliable, compassionate nanny or personal assistant. Let’s chat to see if we’re a good fit!

Hi my name is Leticia. I have many years of experience in childcare. I babysat while in jr high and high school and have many nieces and nephews I sat for along the years.

I am certified in Adult and Pediatric First Aid and CPR. Currently I am caring part time for two young boys ages 5 and 8, but would like something more consistent. I love being around kids and teaching them about the world around us. Their curiosity excites me and their love for learning keeps me on my toes.
