Hello! I am Los Angeles based, working part time in advertising and looking for a regular part time or occasional childcare position, ideally 10-15 hours a week. I am one of six kids and began working with children at the age of 13. I'm now in my thirties, with many years of nannying behind me. I have taken care of children of all ages and stages of childhood. I have been certified in CPR in the past, and would be willing to update that certification if needed. I am fun, present, and engaging with children. I believe in the importance of enjoying nature, and will often take children on hikes or other outdoor excursions. As a former ballet dancer, I have taught children's dance classes and encourage creative expression in whichever form it might appear. In prior nanny positions I've offered tutoring/homework help with elementary and high school courses. I'm happy to cook, have no problem dropping off/picking up at school, and do have my own vehicle if any transportation is needed. I am also willing to do light house cleaning. I encourage creativity and growth with the children and allow for a fun and safe environment to learn and play, while being sensitive to each little one's individual needs. Thank you for your interest and I look forward to getting to know you and your family!
“Fantastic, highly recommend. Punctual, communicative, and attentive!”
Hi families, I’m Sandy, a professional bilingual nanny with over 7 years of experience caring for children from newborns to teenagers. I bring the perfect mix of warmth, structure, creativity, patience, and calm confidence into every home I work with. I have worked with families in New York, The Hamptons, Florida, Puerto Rico, Vermont, Colombia, and China, bringing a global, adaptable, and culturally aware approach to childcare. My approach is centered on safety, emotional connection, developmental growth, and joyful routines. I love creating days filled with reading, music, outdoor play, sensory activities, Spanish immersion, healthy meals, and age-appropriate learning moments that help children feel secure, capable, and excited to grow. I have experience with infant care, toddler routines, school-age children, travel support, busy family schedules, healthy meal prep, children’s laundry, organization, transportation, homework help, potty training, and creating a peaceful rhythm in active households. Families describe me as reliable, loyal, discreet, loving, active, organized, and highly professional. I take pride in being more than a nanny. I become a trusted partner to parents and a steady, positive presence in a child’s life. I am CPR and First Aid certified, fully bilingual in English and Spanish, and comfortable working with families who value high standards, clear communication, emotional intelligence, and exceptional care. If you are looking for someone who will care for your children with love, intention, maturity, and true professionalism, I would be honored to connect with your family.
“Sandy is an absolutely exceptional nanny. She was recommended to me by a friend recently and from the beginning it was clear how talented she is. She immediately got down on my 3 year old’s level and kept her attention all day. She is so kind and engaging that my daughter was immediately smitten. Sandy’s attention was 100% on my daughter the whole time. My daughter often (multiple times per day) asks when Sandy is coming back. There aren’t enough ways to recommend Sandy. She is punctual, reliable, she cooks and speaks multiple languages. Most of all she seems to really enjoy taking care of children. Please do not hesitate to contact me, I would be happy to sing her praises over the phone!”

Hi I am a career nanny of 30 years. I have been described as honest, fun, loving, reliable and dependable. I love my job and am so lucky to work with all ages. I have a degree in Early Childhood Education but have worked with infants to teens.I hope to get the chance to interact with one of yours.
“Mary helped me out in a pinch when daycare got canceled. She was very responsive, showed up on time, great energy, wonderful with my 9 month old. Would definitely hire her again.”
Hello my name is Lindsay, I am currently a graduate student in the Masters of Social Work program at California State University, Northridge. Besides having to take care of all my younger cousins, I have work experience in elementary, middle, and high school levels in the education system. Additionally, I have experience with tutoring kids in math, english and science. I love being around children and have worked as a coach at multiple basketball clinics because they are so fun to be around. I have experience with taking care and babysitting infants, toddlers, and teenagers. I feel very confident with caring for children due to the various settings I’ve been able to work in. I am very patient and caring and would ensure that every child I watch is taken care of. I love to make sure that every kid I watch is happy and comfortable. I am also able to help tutor kids in primary school as well as middle school. Furthermore, I am also very organized and love to do housekeeping work. Besides taking care of the children, I am willing to help the parents with any other tasks they need to get done that they don't have time to do. I hope I can help with any families that may need an extra hand! Thank you for your time and consideration!
