$24 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Canoga Park, CA

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.

Xenia $22 per hour for 1 child

My name is Xenia. I believe in catering to a child's emotional and intellectual needs. I believe in explaining the reason for things versus telling a child "No". Instead, I will tell a child, "That's not something we put in our mouth because it's not food. We only put food and medicine in our mouth." In that way, the child is able to make the connection in its brain in a healthy and productive manner instead of bringing fear and rejection to the child. I love cats and dogs. I am open to babysit children, your fur babies, and perform light domestic work.

Devon $27 per hour for 1 child

I would be thrilled to have the opportunity to hang out with your kiddos for occasional nights out, adult weekends away, or busy days to get errands done. I spent almost 5 years teaching toddlers and preschoolers, ages 18-months to five-years-old, before becoming a full-time nanny for a four-month-old and a five-year-old. When the infant was old enough to attend school, I stepped into an assistant director role at a preschool in my hometown, which is my current full time position. I am CPR and first aid trained, mandated reporter certified, and I obtained a teaching certificate along with 30 child development units, and a degree in social and behavioral sciences. Early childhood education is my passion and I would love the opportunity to help your young ones on their social and emotional development and academic growth!
