Hey there! I’m Anamar and I have been working in the education and private childcare industry for over 20 years. I’m currently nannying full-time but looking to help other families part-time or as a back up! I’ve taught middle school and high school English. I have experience caring for kids preschool age to highschool age.
I’m a caring, reliable, and energetic caregiver with experience supporting children of all ages—from newborns to teenagers. I’ve taken care of up to three toddlers at the same time for several days, and I’m very comfortable managing different personalities and needs at once. Coming from a large family full of little ones, I’ve spent years helping raise and care for children in all stages, which has given me patience, confidence, and a natural ability to connect with kids quickly. I have a sweet-hearted and positive nature, and I always make it a priority to create a warm, safe, and joyful environment. I love engaging with children through singing, reading, imaginative play, and outdoor activities that keep them active and entertained. I enjoy being hands-on, present, and involved—never just supervising from the sidelines. Whether it’s helping a toddler explore their creativity, keeping up with energetic kids, or offering calm support to a newborn, I adapt easily to what each child needs. I’m also comfortable helping with cooking and meal prep, and I’m happy to support families with simple household routines that make their day a little easier. One of my favorite parts of caregiving is teaching through fun moments, and I can introduce Spanish naturally into play, songs, and conversation so children learn in a way that feels exciting and easy. Families describe me as dependable, kind, flexible, and someone who truly cares. I bring a great blend of patience, playfulness, and responsibility, and I take pride in creating an environment where children feel valued, supported, and happy. I’m committed to showing up with a great attitude, treating every child as if they were my own family, and making sure parents feel confident and at ease while their little ones are with me. I am open to long-term arrangements with one family and would love to build a consistent relationship where I can support your child’s growth over time. My best availability is all day on weekends and after 4 PM on Wednesdays. I’d love the opportunity to bring my experience, positive energy, and big-hearted care to your family.
Hi! My name is Erika :) I have over three years of experience caring for children. After graduating with a degree in Psychology, I moved to the United States to improve my English, and that’s when I started working as a babysitter—and I quickly discovered how much I love it. I’ve cared for children of different ages. I am CPR certified, have my own car, and I’m comfortable with pets. I’m also happy to provide references. I’d love to connect with your family!
Hi, I’m Liz! I have 8+ years of full-time nanny experience, as well as babysitting. I fell in love with kids when I got my first babysitting job at 18. My favorite childcare experiences have been volunteering abroad teaching children English through theater and dance. With a BFA in theater, I am highly energetic, creative, and fun going. Past nanny responsibilities include meal prep, transportation, house management, overnight care, and more. I’d love to answer any questions you have to see if we’d be a good fit!
Hello! My name is Presley and I am a recent UCLA graduate! I am happy to offer services in child care, pet care, and household care. Although I had no choice, I have been a babysitter since the age of 3, when my parents brought my little brother home from the hospital. In the twenty years since, I have babysat for children between the ages of 4 and 11. As a high schooler, I tutored neighborhood kids in math and literature. I am confident that I can sufficiently assist in math homework through Algebra II. Beyond the scope of caring for human children, I have grown up with both dogs and cats and volunteered at the local Animal Shelter. I am more than happy to clean up after dogs or cats, take dogs for walks, and give them lots of love. I am extremely tidy, organized, and willing to do any chores around the house. Moreover, I can run errands and transport children or pets via car. As a whole, I consider myself to be a warm, enthusiastic, and committed person who gets along swimmingly with any living being, child, adult, or pet :)

"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."
