Evie $25 per hour for 1 child

I’m a responsible, hard-working nanny with experience caring for kids ages 1-12. I babysat a 3-year-old girl, and helped care for my niece from infancy through age 4. I've also led a group of 9-year-old girls as a camp counselor, and taught evening Russian classes to 11-12-year-olds (boys and girls) at my church for several years. I'm patient, especially with kids, and I connect with them easily, making them feel safe, seen, and heard. A bit about me: I'm getting married next May, and I currently work two part-time jobs (office admin and massage therapy). I'm looking to step away from massage therapy for good and focus on nanny work going forward. I'm looking for a stable Monday-Friday schedule, ideally 2:30-6:30 p.m. (flexible to 7pm), around 20 hours/week.

Hailey $23 per hour for 1 child

I have over 6 years of childcare and 2 years of infant care experience. I have cared for children of various ages, which has helped me develop patience, reliability, strong communication skills, and a nurturing approach. I also have work experience with children of special needs and those on the spectrum. I am CPR and first aid certified, I am attentive, compassionate, and organized, with a natural ability to build trust and create a safe, positive environment. My experience includes supervising daily activities, homework help/tutoring, assisting with routines, meal preps, light household tasks relating to the child’s needs or any pet needs. I love animals and strongly believe that pets are a part of the family. In previous years I have helped with taking pets for walks, assisting with medical needs such as shots or giving medications with meals, as well as keeping them company while family members are traveling. I genuinely enjoy helping others and am eager to bring the same level of care, companionship, and dependability to any family that requires help.

Sana $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Sana. I currently offer help with childcare, senior companionship, pet care (including walking), and basic household help such as dishes, tidying, and light cleaning. I can also bring my own basic cleaning supplies. I’m a Psychological Science student at UCI and will be graduating this spring. I work part-time as a Mental Health Technician in Newport Beach and am also involved in research at UCI as a research assistant in a psychological science department lab. I have about three years of experience working with children as an ABA therapist and I am RBT certified. I’ve worked with children across a range of ages and helped with homework, played board games, and structured activities, and supported skill-building through positive reinforcement. I also worked as a full time nanny for one year. I also completed a CNA training program, passed my national exam, and gained experience working with elderly residents during my clinical placement in a nursing home. I love animals and am comfortable helping with pets including walking and feeding.

Arianna $22 per hour for 1 child

Hi, I’m Arianna! I’m currently working part-time as a Pediatric Physical Therapy Assistant, and I’m looking to continue nannying and babysitting part-time or on an as-needed basis. I have several years of experience caring for children of different ages, including providing a safe, fun, and nurturing environment while parents are away. My experience includes supervising children, preparing meals and snacks, helping with homework, planning age-appropriate activities, maintaining routines, and assisting with bedtime and daily care. Working in pediatric physical therapy has also given me additional experience working with children and supporting their individual needs and development. I’m responsible, patient, caring, and dependable, and I truly enjoy working with children!
