Hi! I'm Kate, and I can help with a lot of things! In my work as a caregiver, educator, and developmental interventionist, I am deeply committed to helping children understand that they matter. In 2018 I earned a master’s degree in School Counseling which gave me in-depth training in child development, social-emotional learning, and behavioral support. After working for years in public schools in various advising/interventionist roles, I decided to apply my knowledge and skills in more flexible, hands-on settings — working directly with children and families in their homes. I encourage curiosity, creativity, and fun in my work with kids. My classroom experience has given me a lot of tools such as ways to make routines fun, communicating rules and expectations, using positive reinforcement, and tons of arts and crafts ideas. Through patient guidance and empathy, I help children build their communication skills and practice emotional regulation so they can thrive socially and academically. Each child is unique, and each one deserves to feel confident in their ability to learn and grow in their own way- I can help them with that! My ultimate goal is to be a positive and empathetic presence in your home. How can I help?

ā€œKate is very creative and patient. Our girls love her!ā€

Booked by 2 families in La Crescenta, CA

Hello, my name is Nomonde, most people call me Nommy. I am a dedicated and experienced nanny with over eight years of professional childcare experience. My passion for working with children began early in life, inspired by my mother, who was also a nanny. Through her example and my own hands-on experience, I’ve developed a strong foundation in creating supportive, engaging, and safe environments for children of various ages. I take a thoughtful, nurturing approach to childcare ,focusing on emotional development, physical activity, and healthy routines. As a Long term full time nanny, certified personal trainer with current CPR and AED certifications, I prioritize the safety, happiness and wellbeing of the children in my care. I also maintain a healthy lifestyle and enjoy integrating those habits into my work, whether through active play, nutritious meals, or encouraging daily structure and routine. Faith is an important part of my life, and I identify as a Christian. I would ideally love to work with a family that shares similar values, where mutual respect, kindness, and integrity are central to the home environment. I treat every family I work with like my own, with warmth, commitment, and care. I build strong, lasting relationships with both children and parents, and take pride in being a consistent, reliable presence in their lives. I am currently seeking a full time nanny position with a family who values experience, trust, and a nurturing approach to childcare. References are available upon request and would be happy to speak to the quality of care I provide. I look forward to the opportunity to connect and learn more about your family’s needs. Best regards, Nommy

"When we hired Amani, we felt like we hit the jackpot. We were very lucky to find her on UrbanSitter at the beginning of school year. She was picking up kids from school, taking them to afternoon activities, helping them with assignments. She prepped food for them, helped organize their closets and keep their spaces neat and orderly. We would hire her again in a heartbeat."
