Hi! My name is Julia! I recently moved here from Huntington Beach after graduating from Cal State Long Beach. I have a degree in Sociology and Religious Studies! I also completed a teaching credential program for special education. My family lives in Colorado, and I am so happy to be close with them again!! I have been a babysitter since I was 12, and continued to do so during school! I have experience with all ages. Most of my jobs have included drop offs & pickups, as well as taking kiddos on adventures or simply staying home & hanging out! I am also experienced in helping out around the household with whatever is needed (cooking, cleaning, running errands, etc) I am currently involved with a nonprofit organization for at risk youth in the springs, and am looking for employment that brings some more flexibility and light into my life, and working with kids and families has always done the trick for me!
I have raised 7 children and have extensive experience with infants, toddlers and school aged children. I watch children in my home as well. I enjoy kids of all ages and am very flexible with schedules.

Nurturing young minds is more than a job: its my passion. With over 20 years experience, I offer attentive individualized care to all children. My graduate degree, coupled with Early Child Development coursework and certification as a teacher provides me with a strong foundation. I am patient and calm and I enjoy engaging children with board games and read aloud books. I'm comfortable enforcing household rules. I maintain open communication with parents following their preferred method to keep them informed. I am also certified in First Aide Training and CPR Training. Beyond childcare, I am happy to help with cooking , meal preparation and light house keeping. I look forward to the opportunity to bring my experience and dedication to your family,
Hi - my name is Leah. I am offering child care, senior care and household services. I’m passionate about being a nanny and have 15+ years of experience caring for newborns, infants, toddlers, and children of all ages. I pride myself on providing exceptional, loving care that caters to each child’s unique needs. I’m highly skilled in managing children’s daily routines, including meal preparation, school schedules, and recreational activities. With my experience, I’m comfortable communicating with children at various developmental stages and assisting with schoolwork when needed. In addition to providing hands-on care, I can also handle transportation, including drop-offs and pick-ups, and help manage busy family calendars, ensuring appointments like school, extracurricular activities, sports clubs, and outings are organized and on time.
Hi families! I’m Natty from Thailand. When I lived in Thailand I was teacher assistant almost 2 years at bilingual school and English institute. And I have first aids certificate. Currently working in the U.S. with over 1 year of childcare experience. I’ve taken care of children from infants to school-age and have experience supervising multiple kids at once. I’m warm, creative, and always make sure the children feel safe and happy while learning through play. I’d be happy to bring that same care and energy to your family!
“Natty did a fantastic job with my daughter! She was so friendly and my daughter loved her. I left with a happy kid and returned with a happy kid! Absolutely recommend! ”
