Find an after school nanny in Burbank, CA

Growing up in a big family of 11 , I’ve had plenty of hands-on experience caring for kids, including my sibling and many younger cousins. I’m very tidy, enjoy cooking and cleaning, and I’ve always had pets both dogs and cats so I’m confident in taking care of them too. I speak 4 languages, two of which are exotic.

Hi I'm Machandel (pronounced Ma-han-del). I've worked in childcare with kids of all ages, (two yr old room, four yr old room and K-5) but spent the most time being the lead teacher for the school-aged kids classroom at a daycare center (after school and all day during the summers). I also hold a certificate for completing a 45-hour childcare development course called "Early care, Education and family support”, and have been CPR certified in the past. More recently, I’ve extensively studied nervous system regulation and somatic practices which has given me gentle tools to help children stay calm, secure and feel emotionally supported. Im a huge animal lover and have a cat at home, but I grew up with dogs so I’m very comfortable interacting and caring for them as well. I love being outdoors, going on walks, playing board games and being creative. I’m looking for a consistent role (around 25+ hours/week) with 1-2 kids. I’m happy to help with homework, fix simple meals, plan art projects, run errands, care for pets, and tidy up after the kids. Please feel free to reach out if you think I'd be a good fit for your family. :) **45 hour course certification & letter of recommendation from childcare center available upon request**

Greetings, my name is Cassandra. My primary qualifiers are as a mother, stepmother, foster mother, active godmother and grandmother of 2, though I am currently living alone again. My children are adults with children and out in the world living well. My professional background is as a multi-disciplinary healer since 2003 with a primary focus in Traditional Chinese Medicine and Acupuncture, manual therapies, and ayurveda. Since arriving in LA in 2018, I have been hiring myself out as an educator through facilitating lectures, workshops, and seminars for local non-profit organizations, private schools and several colleges. Before moving to Los Angeles I worked as a teacher of various sciences in a private school (Orlando, FL) for learning and behavioral disabled youth from 5th-12th grade. While employed there, I developed a dynamic art program, as well. I am also a musician (voice, saxophone and sitar), a multi-disciplinary visual artist, and an ordained minister/counselor; having founded a spiritual non-profit in 2022 called the Temple of Evolutionary Emergence.

Hi my name is Nataly and I am currently an after school program worker with experience working with children of various ages. I am very considerate when it comes to creating a safe and fun environment. I am experienced in supervising activities, assisting with homework, managing routines, and encouraging positive behavior. I am reliable, patient, and attentive to your child’s needs. I currently have summer availability and would love the opportunity to help families with childcare during this time. I look forward to meeting your family!

Parents who have entrusted me to care for their children, pets, homes have said that I have a natural ability to anticipate needs, stay calm under pressure, and create a safe, positive environment. I'm responsible, dependable, and genuinely enjoy spending time with children. As an actor and creative person, I love engaging kids through imaginative play, reading, arts and crafts, games, and outdoor activities. I'm also happy to help with homework, meal preparation, school pickups, bedtime routines, and light household tasks. My goal is to make children feel supported, safe, and encouraged while giving parents confidence that everything is being handled with care and attention. I am literally the go-to for random unanticipated scenarios. Forgot your bridesmaids dress in you car at the flyaway and need someone to go to your house, grab the key, find the car in the flyaway parking lot, grab the dress, drive to LAX, and hand it over to you? I’m your girl. Yes, that’s a true story and she made her flight! I was the hero of that wedding and I didn’t even know the bride or groom. I’m able to quickly assess what a situation needs to ensure a calm and safe environment for children. I’ve handled bed times for double date nights when the couples would be expected home late. One of their daughters (6) was having trouble sleeping. I checked in on her every 15 minutes after she went to bed and she’d be awake, but she told me she lies awake for a long time before actually being able to sleep. So I asked her to close her eyes and travel in her mind to a beach. She can hear her parents laughing in the background, her sister playing in the sand, she herself is lying down on the beach. The sound of the ocean is blurring all other conversation, the wind is singing through the air, birds can be heard faintly… I saw her pupils picturing everything through her closed eyelids when I first started the exercises, but the movement eventually slowed down to a stop and she was fast asleep. That’s probably the best off the cuff success story I have. Anyway, I hope to hear from you! Thank you for your consideration!
