Booked by 2 families in Winnetka, CA

Hi! My name is Isabel, I’m 25 years old and grew up in the Burbank area as part of a close-knit family of five. I’ve been around children for as long as I can remember and have hands-on experience caring for kids between the ages of 1 to 10 years old. I especially enjoy working with children ages 1 to 5, as I believe this is a crucial time in their development—and I love being part of their growth, learning, and joy during these early years. I’m trilingual in English, Spanish, and American Sign Language (ASL), which I’ve found can be a fun and engaging way to help children learn to communicate in different ways. I’m also a recent graduate from California State University, Northridge (CSUN). In addition to childcare, I love staying active, doing arts and crafts, baking, and going on walks. I strive to create a safe, nurturing, and stimulating environment where children can express themselves, explore, and thrive.

Isabel is my son’s best friend! She’s an amazing nanny and i highly recommend her!!!

Booked by 1 family in Winnetka, CA

Hello, my name is Nicole! I’m 25 years old and originally from Poland. I’m currently living in Los Angeles, Encino and have several years of childcare experience, including working as an Au Pair (live in nanny) where I cared for children of different ages and supported busy families in their everyday routines. I’m CPR certified and have experience with kids from ages 2 to 15. Over time, I’ve learned how to find that sweet spot between fun and structure whether we’re doing crafts, playing outside, helping with homework or just winding down after a busy day. I always want kids to feel safe, comfortable, and free to be themselves, and for you to feel relaxed knowing they’re in good hands. In my free time, I’m very active. I enjoy sports and going to the gym, which helps me stay energetic. I love reading books and cooking, and I often share my passion for learning and healthy meals with the little ones I care for. I am a reliable and a safe driver so transportation and errands are never a problem. I’m responsible, caring, punctual and always ready to create a fun and positive environment for children! I’m more than happy to chat and answer any questions over a phone call, feel free to reach out anytime!

Kids had fun. Professional and reliable.

I have a full time office job but have free time in the evenings and weekends. I helped raise my sister while my parents worked since I was 13 so I do have experience just not professionally. I used to dog-sit for a couple of years before I moved back to my hometown.

I am a youthful and active mature woman with very open availability and flexible schedule. I am dependable and have my own transportation. I gave birth to and raised four children of our own; happy marriage for 30 years; have done child care and have been trained in first aid and CPR. I have taught elementary children for 20 years. I’m very loving and nurturing. I love to play and read with children. I am qualified to assist with online school and enjoy doing fun projects like arts and crafts, singing and exercise. I also am experienced in the care of infants including feeding, bathing, changing diapers and comforting.

Stephanie is so wonderful to have looking after our little one whilst we work. Our daughter warmed to her instantly and looks forward to her coming back to play. We couldn’t be happier that we found Stephanie and believe any family would be lucky to have her.
