Booked by 3 families in Glendale, CA

Hi, I’m Sonia I have a Bachelor’s degree in Child and Adolescent Development with a focus on Elementary Teaching at San Francisco State University. I’ve been working toward a career in education for over five years, and I truly enjoy supporting children as they learn and grow. I have strong hands-on experience working with infants and young children, and I’m especially confident in caring for babies and supporting their early development. I’ve worked as a lead teacher in an infant classroom, where I was responsible for maintaining routines, supporting feeding and diapering, soothing, and creating a calm, safe, and nurturing environment. Along with my infant experience, I’ve also worked with children up to age five and as a substitute teacher in a variety of classroom settings, which has helped me adapt to different needs and personalities. In my current role as a teacher, I create engaging and supportive environments where children feel comfortable exploring and learning. I enjoy activities like sensory play, reading, music, and simple crafts that support early development in a fun and meaningful way. I value clear communication with families and believe every child deserves patience, attention, and care. I’m also fluent in Spanish, which allows me to connect with a wider range of families. Outside of work, I love spending time with animals and have experience caring for dogs of all sizes.

Booked by 5 families in Glendale, CA

I’m so happy to be a nanny! I’ve had the pleasure of caring for infants, toddlers, and older kids. My job involved supporting families with their children’s needs, such as feeding, helping them learn, and making sure they had fun with walks to the park or library, or even driving them to and from school. I speak both English and Spanish, and I’m CPR certified with a clean driving record. I have my own transportation with a clean driving record; else, I’m a non-smoker. I’m also quite flexible with my schedule and can work some weekends. Sorry I don’t have too many reviews, but I’ve been working with the same families for a while.

“Ana was great and flexible with my changing schedule. She was kind and communicative and went above and beyond to help out ”

Booked by 1 family in Glendale, CA

Hi! I’m Vitória, and I have over 7 years of experience supporting families throughout Los Angeles as a nanny, household assistant, and personal organizer. I’ve cared for children from 3 months to 13 years old, with most of my experience being with families of three children between the ages of 2 and 9. My responsibilities have included school pick ups and drop offs, meal preparation, daily routines, activities, homework support, and creating a calm, organized home environment. Beyond childcare, I’ve also supported families with household management, running errands and organizing spaces. I’m currently looking for occasional babysitting. I have some weekdays mornings available and weekends. I’m warm, dependable, proactive, and truly enjoy making life easier for the families I work with. I look forward to connecting with you!

"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!"
