With over 16 years of childcare experience, I bring a wealth of expertise to every family I work with. As a dedicated nanny for multiple years, I've had the pleasure of nurturing children from various backgrounds and ages, fostering their growth and development in safe and loving environments. My experience extends to providing overnight care, ensuring both the children and parents feel confident and secure. Beyond traditional childcare roles, I've spent 5 years as a children's party entertainer, embodying multiple well-known princesses, superheroes, and other characters. This experience has equipped me with creative and engaging activities to spark joy and imagination in every child. Additionally, I am a passionate private lessons teacher for voice and piano, having taught numerous children and witnessing their musical talents blossom. My background as a summer camp counselor and tutoring experience further enriches my ability to connect with and inspire young minds. I excel at engaging children through crafts, imagination play, and music, while also offering homework help to support their academic journey. I also have experience with a variety of pets, including dogs, cats, rabbits, birds, and more. I am committed to providing exceptional care and support to your family, creating meaningful and memorable experiences for your children.

Booked by 1 family in Universal City, CA

Hello, my name is Autumn and I've recently returned to my hometown of Los Angeles. I'm very excited to reconnect with my roots and plant myself into a new life here. Since I was a valley girl, I've been caring for others. Whether it was my younger siblings (I come from a family of 7 kids) or the sweet family of 6 down the street, I started babysitting at the responsible age of 11! I'm still in touch with this family, celebrating milestones together almost annually. Years later I chose to be an au-pair in Hamburg, Germany to an infant and her 3 year old sister Luisa who filled my days with curiosity and wonder. We had so much fun together playing dress up, exploring outdoors and reading and singing together. Not long after returning to the states, I lived with a professional family of Berkeley, nannying for their 2 daughters aged 7 and 9. With both families I tutored, cooked, played games, crafted, offered transportation, championed, provided recreational activities and sang lullabies. In-between these lines of work, I was also once a clown and balloon maker. ;) I have assisted elders with tender care, errands, out of state relocation and aquatic exercise! I recently became a lifeguard and certified swim instructor to adults and children between 9 months and 12 years old. It was so heartwarming to watch kids go from being afraid of water, to loving jumping in and splashing around. I am an extremely clean and organized person, a self-taught home chef, attended neurodivergent training and believe that human connection should always come first. I have a Bachelor of Arts in Liberal Studies which provided a strong block of courses in psychology, further educating me on people. I drive an all electric vehicle and have a clean driving history. I am the sole caretaker of 2 sweet cats but have also looked after friend's dogs in the past. As a child I had a pet mouse, snake, parakeet and hamster so I'm comfortable with all types! Being a caregiver requires sincere intuition and heart. One has to navigate personal needs while also being present of mind to consider safety, technicalities and timelines. I pay close attention to detail, am excellent at anticipating needs and am a certified masseuse. Collectively, I possess the personal qualities, the particular skillset and the creative talents to care for animals, homes and humans of all ages. Did I mention I'm a big fan of Bluey? Who isn't I guess. I look forward to connecting to see if we're a match!

“Autumn was excellent! She cared for my 90 y.o. Dad with many needs and was warm, attentive, and very communicative. We have already asked to work with her regularly as she is a gem.”
