Charlotte C., Nanny in Torrance, CA 90503 with 2 years of paid experience

Hello! My name is Charlotte and I am a skilled childcare worker with 2 years of full time childcare experience through working 7 summers as a youth sailing instructor. There I taught children ages 5-7 and 8-18 sailing skills by creating an adventurous, educational, and safe learning environment. I have cared for children of all backgrounds, levels of emotional regulation as well as students on the spectrum and have enjoyed my time with them all and have learned much about how to best provide them with education and care. I’ve spent the last 2 summers there as the lead instructor which put me in full responsibility of all the students and staff including any medical paperwork and treatment needed, creating and teaching engaging lesson plans and games, monitoring student interactions and mental health and well as making sure all land and water activities were conducted safely. With this I have gained a great love of working with children and fostering a creative environment that allows children to express themselves freely while enjoying our time together. With this full time care experience I also have some experience of babysitting infants to teens during my middle and high school years and now. With the combination of both that and my teaching experience I think I will be a great fit as your next caregiver!

Camilla C., Nanny in Torrance, CA 90503 with 10 years of paid experience

Hello I'm Camilla, I am someone who deeply cares for infants and prioritize safety and well being, especially for first time parents. I help parents prepare safe, baby ready homes and recommend essential products and developmental toys. I am very conscious about maintaining proper hygiene before caring for infants and always wash my hands thoroughly. I understand how important it is for parents to feel confident in their baby’s safety. so I take every precaution to ensure a clean and nurturing environment. With a background in nursing and music, my nurturing embraces children as early as infancy through singing and imaginative play. It is incredibly rewarding to see delicate expressions of comfort when babies recognize my songs, then hear toddlers singing my songs to becoming fully engaged when I read to them. In my spare time, I channel my creativity into writing stories, composing songs that support developmental milestones, and creating educational videos for children. Music is just one of my supportive tools to soothe and stimulate infants as well as help toddlers and young children navigate challenges like understanding boundaries, learning new skills, and facing moments of frustration. I focus on building safety awareness, self esteem, and independence whether through songs that make clean up time fun or original music that encourages them not to give up when something feels hard. By including children’s individual interests, it allows me to build a stronger connection and relationship and spark curiosity. I am confident in providing homework support and engaging children in creative arts activities. I bring a strong work ethic and can be counted on to be both reliable and dedicated. I studied Music at UCLA and bring both creativity and energy to my work with children of all ages through music. I have a true passion for teaching. After earning my Associate’s degree, I began working toward my Bachelor’s degree, building on a background that includes Music Therapy and Occupational Therapy. CPR certified and first aid certified. I stay up to date on flu shots and vaccinations. As someone who enjoys healthy eating, I’ve learned that even with fussy eaters, healthy habits can still be encouraged by turning new foods into something fun to try. I am available for both full time and part time caregiving roles, including as a mother’s helper and date nights. I am comfortable with pets and have energy to keep up with growing little ones!

Effie A., Nanny in Torrance, CA 90503 with 10 years of paid experience

I have been a nanny/babysitter for newborns, infants, toddlers, preschool age and elementary school age children for more than a decade. I have multiple experience. I love taking car of children because they remind me of my experience raising my grandsons from birth to school age. My nanny/babysitter job started when my first grandson was born. I retired early from my role as a Payroll Analyst at UCLA Medical Center Financial Services to care for my grandsons (now 9 and 11) when they were born. For seven years, I was their primary caregiver (my daughter and son-in-law are both busy attorneys). I nurtured, played with, cared for, and educated my grandsons in every way, including taking them to enrichment activities and planning every aspect of their day. Both of my grandsons were reading by 3 years old. From potty-training , to baths, tennis practice, swimming classes, to zoo trips, to playdates and then eventually to school drop-offs, pickups and homework supervision, I did it all with great joy. It would be my pleasure to bring the same joy, kindness and care to your child(ren). I was also a full time nanny for a nine months old baby girl from April 2022 - June 2024. I have been occasionally babysitting for three families from 2021 to present. I plan the day to day activities for children in my care. Just to mention a few of the activities I do with babies in my care, I take them to the local library programs; read at least once during the day and at nap and bedtime; potty training; prepare meals and snacks; playdates; birthday parties; playground; a walk in the neighborhood. We have drawing, painting, coloring and writing activities. I plan birthday parties and attend mummy and me two hour classes with baby. (Please refer to my references for testimonies to my work on my profile). I have a Child and Baby First Aid/CPR/AED Certificate. I prioritize safety of children in my care and take the needs of the child and parents expectations seriously. I am honest, respectful, kind, gentle, caring, energetic, conscientious, loving, calm, attentive, multitasking, intelligent and punctual. I am a non-smoker and fully vaccinated. My next annual physicals is in October 2025. Thank you for reviewing my profile. I look forward to hearing from you . Effie Annor.
