Hi there! My name is Hannah, and I’ve been nannying on and off since high school (I’m 29 now) and my most recent nanny position wrapped up last year. I’ve also spent several years caring for infants and toddlers at my local church. My siblings have five kids ranging from 2 to 9, so I’ve always been surrounded by little ones! I’d describe myself as caring, fun, and creative. I love coming up with activities that spark imagination and curiosity. I’m also adventurous and enjoy spending time outdoors, whether that’s exploring a park, doing crafts outside, or going on little adventures. At the same time, I’m responsible, timely, and dependable - qualities I know parents value. I truly enjoy helping kids learn, laugh, and grow, and I’d be so happy to care for yours!
“Hannah was an incredible help over the past few weeks, and we could not have been happier with her support. She was reliable, thoughtful, and consistently brought a high level of attention to detail to everything she handled. She made our day-to-day much smoother. Her communication was excellent and she approached every task with professionalism and care. We truly appreciated her help and would highly recommend her!!!”
Hi! I’m Rachel! I am in my last semester studying Elementary Education at Arizona State University. I am currently student teaching in Kindergarten at a school in Paradise Valley and therefore trying to earn some money in evenings/weekends. I have been working with kiddos for many many years now! I have been a summer camp counselor, after school staff, dance class teacher for little ones, and many years of babysitting/nannying. I have worked alongside the ASU preschool psychology classroom as well for 90+ hours. I am CPR certified and have my Arizona State IVP Fingerprint Clearance card as well. I am more than happy to help with chores around the house, as well as help your kiddos with homework!
I am the oldest of 2 sisters, that I had watch over when my parents were out. I have experience with watching my nieces and nephew when their parents needed time away. I can cook for the childern following their personal diet restrictions. Follow medication schedule they may have. I help encourage the kids to keep things tidy while also cleaning after them. Watch behavior ques and try to help solve not desirable behavior. Time out time if needed and nap times. Sleep at a schedule time.
Hi! I live in Gilbert with my fiance after we both graduated college at GCU. I studied film, and still work on set most weeks, but I have a lot of free time on days off! I started childcare with babysitting in 2020 when many familes needed extra childcare, and ended up nannying all through college for a couple of different families, mostly for kids in the 2-7 year old range. I also spent two summers working at the YMCA summer camp for preschool-1st graders, which taught me a lot about early childhood education. Since graduating (and having a bit more of a varied schedule due to film work), I switched to just babysitting (and the occasional dog/house sitting) on my days and weekends off. I am happy to help with dogs, but I am unfortunately allergic to cats! As far as myself, I love to read, play cozy games, and have been really loving traveling around the US this year! My favorite place to be in the world is on a beach, and I've been getting really into making my own lattes at home.
Hi, I’m Sandra! I’m a retired veterinary technician with 30 years of experience and have been providing trusted, loving pet care since 2007. I specialize in personalized care for dogs, cats, birds, and other small pets, including seniors and pets who need medication. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away—just like family.

"We were incredibly grateful that Maya was able to help us out with a last-minute childcare emergency. She matched our 9-year-old's energy with arts & crafts, some quiet reading, and a walk around the neighborhood. We'd have Maya back in a heartbeat!"
Hillary S., parent
"We used Tania for a last minute emergency. She responded very quickly. My daughter seemed to enjoy herself. My son napped most of the time. I enjoyed how she kept me updated by text."
Theresa M., parent
