Nancy Compton
$25 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Lawndale, CA

My name is Nancy. I am the first born daughter of 8 children. I’ve been helping my mom take care of my siblings which have built the foundation of my profession. I’m currently a preschool teacher and have previous experience with being a substitute teacher for about 6 years. Through substituting, I was able to obtain a lot of my professional experience. I’ve been to a vast amount of daycares where I got to see and learn different learning styles in children as well as different approaches to learning and teaching children to achieve their milestones. I’ve been in a classroom where I’ve had to potty train and can say I was able to learn a few techniques. I’ve also been “long-term” in some sites where I was able to grow a bond with some of the children and celebrate their success. I do have a sibling with Asperger’s autism who is 15, so I have some experience with children on the spectrum.

I am your sitter for Date Night, Couples Night, Party Night, or some ME time. I am a grandmother of six. Four currently live with me and I enjoy watching and playing with them. My mom use to own a daycare and I would help her with the children. People have always told me I was good with children. I understand wanting to go out and not have a babysitter. I’m your girl. Call me, I’ll come and watch the kids while you have a good time and your children will be safe when you come back.
