Hi CA Families! 🌞🌉✨ New to the app but not to child care! I have references available :) I’m a beach lover, student, nature enthusiast, 25-year-old nanny with over 10 years of experience caring for kids of all ages and abilities. I’m a recent graduate with a degree in psychology & a minor in counseling and plan to attend graduate school asap. My long-term goal is to become a Child Life Specialist or Pediatric Psychologist. Supporting kids through their growth isn’t just work for me, it’s truly my calling. I’ve worked closely with autistic children as a nanny, B.C.A, and a para-educator with SFUSD, and I deeply value meeting each child exactly where they are. 💐🤱🏼 My background in psychology, love of neuroscience, training in Waldorf education and yoga training, all shape the way I show up: grounded, playful, attuned, and developmentally aware. I focus a lot on emotional regulation, connection, creativity, and building confidence. 🧠🍎🎨💟 I’ve cared for everything from a bustling household of six kids to providing steady overnight support for a nurse mom working long shifts. I’m adaptable and calm under pressure, and I genuinely enjoy the rhythm of busy family life. I’ve also worked private events, helping create safe and fun spaces for little ones while parents can relax or focus! 🗓️🧺🌺 Before fully diving into childcare, I worked for a catering company, music venue, and restaurants, so I’m very comfortable with meal prep, packing lunches, prepping healthy snacks, and helping families stay organized around food and daily tasks like laundry or organizing. 👩🍳🍳 I’m also comfortable with basic medication administration and toileting support. ⛑️🚽🙈 I love taking kids outside — beach days, park hangs, nature walks, or city adventures. Fresh air and movement are big in my care style. I incorporate music, storytelling, and creative play often. 🚶♀️🌈🦋🌻🎼 I also speak ASL and light Spanish. 🤘🇪🇸 I am certified in CPR as well. 🏥🩺 If you’re looking for someone warm, intuitive, outdoorsy, and deeply invested in your child’s well-being, I’d love to connect. 🤍 open to setting up zoom meetings or interviews any time. Thank you!
“Sierra arrived 10 minutes early, took my kids to play outside and kept them safe on a city excursion to the local hardware store. The kids were already asking if she’d come back. Highly recommended! ”
Hello! My name is Katie, I currently work as an early education tutor at Kumon in Aliso Viejo and have been an Art Instructor in Laguna Beach for the past three years, helping kids explore their creativity and build confidence. I’ve also worked in church nurseries since I was 12, where I’ve gained valuable experience caring for young children. Additionally, I’ve spent a lot of time caring for my younger brother, who is 9 years younger than me, ever since he was a baby. These experiences have taught me patience, creativity, and a love for working with kids! When I’m not working or studying, I enjoy spending my free time painting, going to the beach, and playing with my dog! I’d love to bring my care to your family!
“Katie was one of the best sitters we have ever had. Our four year old adored her. She brought art projects, made dinner, and brought a cheerful attitude to both days. We can’t wait to work with her again. ”
Hi! My name is Ariana and I’m currently a sophomore in college. I am offering childcare ranging from any age, as well as some household services. I absolutely love being a babysitter and have been watching all age ranges since I was 13 years old. Mostly unpaid, since I truly just love kids! I would love go help with other tasks as well such as tutoring, driving to appointments/activities, tidying up, doing laundry, and even running errands! Another plus is I am bilingual! Fluent in Spanish and English. I am also happy to work with families that have pets.
I volunteer on Sundays and Wednesdays with my church. I have taken care of babies through 6th graders as well as some children who have had disabilities. I also grew up taking care of a family member with disabilities as well. I adore children and spending time and playing with them. I have also taken care of an older adult who was wheelchair bound. I do my best and take care of each child and adult with great care when I am on the job or volunteering. I also own a dog and have had experience taking care of pets.
