Hi, My name is Danae I’m 30 years from Los Angeles. I am Legal Assistant, Case Manager, and Notary for a personal injury firm with a passion for children & childcare. I’ve been a nanny for about 15+ years, I started by nannying for twins and began working for other friends and family’s children as well. In my years of being a nanny, I’ve mainly cared for infants, toddlers and elementary school age but love kids of all ages. In my free time, I like to play basketball, go swimming, cooking, and dance. I'm a dedicated, hardworking, and professional nanny & I am looking to showcase my experience and skills to ensure exceptional childcare. I strive to be the best nanny I can be. I wish to help families with providing a safe and comfortable environment for their children. I also encourage children to participate in fun and educational activities. Hope to speak soon :)

Hello my name is Maria, I have about 12+ years experience working with children. From ages ranging from infant to 12 years old, in and outside the school setting. I have experience delivering behavior therapies as well. I am very quick when it comes to creating fun new ideas with children. I am patient, compassionate and understanding. My love for animals makes me a great animal sitter as well. Looking forward to meeting you and your family.

Maria was wonderful with our 11-month-old baby. She arrived early, was very professional, and immediately put us at ease. She followed our bedtime routine carefully and handled everything calmly and confidently. Communication was clear and timely, which we really appreciated since we were out for the evening. Our baby was well cared for and sleeping peacefully when we returned. We would absolutely recommend Maria to other families and would be happy to work with her again!

Nice to meet you! I’m Kate, a 37 year old career nanny who moved from Chicago to LA in 2021 for a jet-setting/bi-coastal, travel heavy nanny position, and once the position ended, I decided to stay out here permanently. I live in Orange County with my girlfriend, and work M-Th, 7a-7p, in Studio City. My previous position was Jan ‘23- Nov ‘24. My background has always been in early childhood, and majored in early childhood education in college. I have years of experience with all age ranges and backgrounds: from kids who thrive in group settings to kids that do best with individualized, 1:1 care to kids who are neurodivergent. My first and top priority is the safety and wellbeing. Second is play, exploration, imagination, creativity, and seeing kids explore based on what they are into and things they find interesting. Third is, in my day-to-day, I take a child-centered approach. Including, but not limited to: time outside, walks, going to playgrounds, and finding activities within the home that the kids enjoy. My experience includes: working as a in-home support worker with neurodivergent kids, have worked at 3 early childhood centers (both as an assistant teacher and lead teacher); and all my experience has been from newborn to school age. In my free time: I love checking out new restaurants, adventuring the outdoors with my girlfriend, finding new trails to hike on AllTrails, the beach, and weekend trips
