Hi Familes! My name is Guadalupe (Lupita) and I am a current 4th year undergraduate student at the University of California-Irvine studying Education and Political Science. My qualifications include: being a summer camp counselor taking care of kiddos ranging from 8-15, an academic tutor for high schoolers ranging from 9th-12th grade, and being a loving cat mom to three children.
Hi there! I’m a loving, proactive, and compassionate nanny and house assistant with over seven years of experience caring for children ages 2 to 16. I’m super energetic, patient, and always bring positive energy into the home. I truly love what I do, helping families stay organized, keeping the home running smoothly, and creating a safe, fun, and nurturing environment for kids to grow and feel loved. Right now, I care for two wonderful kids (ages 12, and 9). My days include school drop-offs, organizing after-school activities like sports and tutoring, helping with errands, managing the family calendar, and keeping the home clean and tidy. Before that, I cared for an amazing 12-year-old boy with autism for almost three years, supporting his daily routine, school, and therapies with patience and consistency, while also helping with light housekeeping, errands, and pet care. Over the years, I’ve gained a lot of experience balancing family routines, promoting positive behavior, and creating a calm and joyful environment. I’m CPR certified, fully vaccinated, a non-smoker, and have a clean driving record. I’m looking for a wonderful family that feels like the right fit, where I can bring my heart, energy, and experience to make everyday life easier and happier. I’d love to hear from you! ✨
I hold a PhD in Education and spent years as a K-12 educator, so I bring real teaching skills to childcare, not just supervision. As a mom of two (now grown) sons, I know firsthand what kids need at every age. I also have an adorable Shih Tzu, so I'm comfortable caring for pets alongside kids. I'm new to Newport Beach and really love the people, the area, and just the entire vibe here. I’m patient, down-to-earth, and very nurturing to children and animals.
15 years of nursing. Worked in home health with both pediatric and elderly patients. I am very friendly and love taking care of children/adults who need me. I take pride in doing my best with each case and each challenge. I am also an animal lover, and pet owner. I have a cat and a dog. They are both very mellow and friendly. I am honest and reliable and I am looking for a good family who may need my help.
Hi, my name is Genine, and I’m currently a senior majoring in education and psychology. I offer child care, pet care, and household services. I’ve cared for children of all ages, including infants and school-aged kids, for 2 years. I enjoy engaging in creative activities like crafts, tutoring, outdoor play, and even baking lessons! My experience also includes helping with homework and organizing fun, educational games. I’m certified in pediatric First Aid, CPR, and water safety, ensuring your family is in safe hands. I’m great with pets and offer walking, feeding, and playtime services. As a household assistant, I can cook, clean, run errands, and help keep things organized. Friendly, reliable, and flexible, I’m here to provide care tailored to your family’s unique needs!
