Hello! I have been a nanny for over 20 years and have worked with multiple families full time and have done occasional babysitting. I am extremely reliable and believe in "if you are on time, you are late". I am CPR certified and Trustline registeted. I have been with my current nanny family for 15 years! I have taken care of all ages from newborn to teenagers. Nannying is my career and is something that is very important to me. I enjoy reading, sports animals (I am happy to walk dogs), and being someone children feel safe with. I am currently the team manager of my current nanny childs hockey team. I am fun, but consistant. Looking forward to hearing from you!
Aloha! I've been a childcare specialist on/off for the last decade. I specialize in conversational language development and helping children build confidence through age-appropriate activities. I love to laugh and am partial to a dance party. I know how to join the rhythm of a family unit, explain big ideas in a kid-friendly way and communicate concisely with parents so they can handle disciplinary action in a timely manner. My favorite kid stuff to do is drawing tutorials on Art Kid Hub (YouTube), footraces at Lake Elizabeth and k-pop karaoke.
“I can't recommend Losa enough. She is kind, patient, and has a calm presence that helps kids feel safe, comfortable, and understood. She's also fun, playful, and a little silly, which makes it easy for children to connect with her and genuinely enjoy being around her. One of the things I appreciate most about Losa is the way she helps children understand their emotions and behaviors. Instead of simply correcting them, she takes the time to help them recognize what they're feeling and gives them age-appropriate tools to work through those emotions. She encourages confidence, emotional regulation, and self-awareness in a way that feels supportive and empowering. Losa also does a great job of balancing support with healthy boundaries. She knows when to step in to guide a child and when to step back so they can problem-solve, learn, and build independence on their own. Her focus on conversational language development and confidence-building comes through naturally in the way she interacts with children every day. Any family would be lucky to have Losa. She brings warmth, joy, and encouragement wherever she goes, and her presence is truly a gift.”

Hi! My name is Madison, and I’m a 22-year-old college student based in Union City. I have experience caring for children of different ages and enjoy creating a safe, fun, and supportive environment where kids can learn, play, and feel comfortable. I am CPR and First Aid certified and understand the importance of patience, responsibility, and communication when caring for children. Whether it’s helping with meals, playtime, bedtime routines, or homework, I strive to provide dependable care that parents can trust. I am reliable, attentive, and passionate about helping families while giving children a positive and engaging experience.
Hello, I'm Yeca. I have experience taking care of children of different ages and I currently take care of two girls of 1 year and a half and 3 years old. I am an honest, independent person and I quickly learn the routines that each family has with their children. I love spending time with children, playing, reading stories to them and helping them in their development with patience and affection. I speak Spanish and I can also communicate in basic English. As I am new to this app, I offer an extra 30 free minutes in which I can help you with light household chores, such as the dishwasher or anything else you need. My goal is for them to feel calm and satisfied with my work.

"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!"
