“Shahla was very helpful on short notice. She did a great job playing with my son and watching the baby. ”
Hello! I work part time in corporate but prior to my career change I worked as a preschool teacher for 8 years in traditional as well as Reggio Emilia and Montessori inspired programs. For a year I was the Assistant Preschool Director and first grade English teacher at a private multilingual immersion school. I also have two years of nanny experience for a family with an infant and a school age child, and worked as an assistant in an elementary school RSP (special Ed) program while in college. I have a 4 year old son (my only) who is the light of my life! I currently have house rabbits, and have been the loving pet parent to a canary, amphibians, a hamster and dogs over the years, including my beloved maltese mix, Ginger, who crossed the rainbow bridge in 2020 at the age of 14. I love to cook and laundry is my favorite chore. I earned my bachelor’s degree in Applied Cultural Anthropology from Cal State Long Beach, and have 21 Early Childhood Education/Child Development units from Santa Monica College and Cerritos College. English is my native langue, I speak limited French and have a fairly large vocabulary of Spanish and Korean words and phrases.
Hi there! I’m a proud mother of two grown daughters and a loving grandmother to four wonderful grandchildren, ages 8 months to 5 years. Caring for little ones has always been a big part of my life — I regularly babysit my grand kids in the evenings and handle everything from story time to bedtime with ease and patience. I truly enjoy creating a calm, safe, and nurturing environment where children feel happy and secure. With years of hands-on experience caring for infants and toddlers, I understand the importance of routines, gentle guidance, and dependable care. Whether it’s dinner, playtime, or bedtime, I’m comfortable managing multiple children and keeping things running smoothly. If you’re looking for someone reliable, caring, and family-oriented to look after your little ones as if they were my own, I’d love to help.
Hi! I have 16 years of childcare experience from nannying, babysitting, lifeguarding, teaching swim lessons, camp counseling, and interning at Rady Children’s hospital. For my entire collegiate career I had one main family and also worked for Chicago's #1 childcare agency, KGrace. I’ve also worked for childcare agencies in San Diego and Orange County. In August of 2023 I completed my medical doctorate in acupuncture and Chinese medicine. I have a passion for working with children and love to be around their energy! I am CPR, first aid, epipen certified; I am up-to-date on all vaccines. I have a spotless driving and criminal history record. I am California Trust Line certified; this is legally the background check needed in CA to watch children. I love yoga, hiking, painting, trying new restaurants, and traveling. I look forward to speaking with you!
“Michaela you are amazing. Thank you ”
My name is Shireen. I graduated from UCLA, and I’m currently in nursing school at CSUSM. I work really well with kids, I enjoy playing and taking care of them. I am a responsible and reliable young lady. I have been babysitting/ nannying for 10 years with all ranges of age. I have been used to kids my whole life because I come from a big family. I have 4 siblings, and I used to take care of my little siblings since I was 12 years old. I can help tutor, play with them, and be a good role model. I love being a good influence towards children, and I have a passion for caring about them. I would treat them just like if I were to have my own kid. If you have anymore questions feel free to contact me!
