Samantha $30 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 3 families in Bell Gardens, CA

Hi families! I’m 31 years old and have been a nanny for 13 years. I’m currently caring for a sweet 16-month-old and have experience with children ranging from 3 months to 11 years old. Being a nanny is something that truly brings me so much joy. I don’t have children of my own, so caring for little ones and being a part of their growth and everyday lives is something that really fulfills my heart. I genuinely love what I do and feel so lucky to be able to build meaningful relationships with the families I work with. I’m nurturing, patient, dependable, and organized, and I love helping families wherever I can. Along with caring for the children, I’m happy to help with tidying up after them, preparing breakfast, lunch, or dinner, school drop-offs, and keeping up with their daily routines. Communication is something I truly prioritize. I love working alongside parents, keeping them updated, and making sure we’re always on the same page when it comes to their children’s care. I currently have some availability in my schedule and would love the opportunity to connect with another family and help make their days a little easier!

Howdy! I’m originally from Texas and moved to Los Angeles in 2012 to start a new chapter — and I’ve been here ever since. With over 15 years of experience caring for children from newborns to preteens, I’ve had the joy of supporting many families through their childcare journeys. I look forward to helping with yours next!

Taylor $24 per hour for 1 child

I am a dedicated and compassionate caregiver with over two years of professional experience working in private homes, state facilities, and hospital settings, including Kaiser Permanente. My background spans caring for children of various ages and needs, with a strong emphasis on safety, emotional support, and enrichment. Internationally, I have participated in mission and mentorship programs throughout the Philippines and Thailand, supporting underserved and at-risk children through education, structured activities, and positive guidance. I have supervised classrooms of up to seven children at a time, led mentorship programs for troubled youth, and organized community initiatives such as beach cleanups and educational surf programs that encouraged both discipline and joy. In addition to my caregiving experience, I am currently a holistic chef working with a luxury hotel, where I specialize in creating mindful, nourishing snacks and developing healthy eating habits for children, including those who are selective or hesitant eaters. I enjoy making daily routines fun, engaging, and meaningful while fostering curiosity, confidence, and healthy habits. I am passionate about supporting children’s growth in a way that feels safe, exciting, and nurturing, and I truly value opportunities where I can make a positive impact in a child’s life.
