Alexandra P., Nanny in Van Nuys, CA 91406 with 20 years of paid experience

🌸My name is Alexandra and I'm interested in providing care for your family! 🌸I am transitioning out of my current childcare position so I currently I have availability on Thursdays and Fridays, am available to work November 20-30, and will be available 24-30 hours per week starting December 18. 🧡 I am loving, patient, and highly attentive to the needs of infants and know how make them feel comfortable and safe. I am proactive and attuned to when a baby needs feeding, sleep, a diaper change, a change of clothes, or a change in their environment. 🧡 I am passionate about child development and offer age-appropriate engagement and activities to stimulate their minds and help them develop healthy, secure attachments to caregivers so they can develop confidence and self-esteem. I empathize with children's feelings while upholding boundaries and rules. 🧡 My go-to activities are playing games, singing songs, and being silly. I allow children to naturally warm up to me, but ultimately I know how to connect and relate to them and allow them to feel seen and heard. 🌻 I received my Bachelor's Degree in 2014 from San Diego State University with a B.A. in Pscyhology. I have my Early Childhood Education (ECE) credentials that certify me as a licensed care-giver and pre-school teacher by the state of California. 🌻 I have a car, am a non-smoker, comfortable with pets, and am also okay with taking care of sick children and helping potty train. 🌻 I charge $30/hour and have many references that I am willing to provide. I am vaccinated and willing to run a background check. 🌻 Please message me if you'd like to chat and see how I can offer care for your family!

Effie A., Nanny in Van Nuys, CA 91406 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.
