Find nannies in Garden Grove, CA

Hello! I have a master’s degree in teaching from USC and a degree in psychology from UCI. I have 12+ years working in education in the following roles: certified elementary teacher (taught 5th grade for 4 years), substitute teacher in elementary, middle, and high school, sports coach, and tutor. I can speak and understand some Spanish. I love working with kids, love music, sports, arts, and outdoor activities. Love cats and Spiderman. I’m the oldest of 5 siblings, so leadership and caregiving come naturally to me. I’m usually the one at family parties playing with and teaching the little ones. I have experience baby sitting my own nephew since he was months old (now 5). I attended private schools from 1st grade through high school (attended Loyola High School where I played football and ran track). Outside of my credentials I’m flexible at the moment and willing to take on whatever task you are interested in throwing at me with enthusiasm!

Hi, I’m Brenda! I’ve spent the last 8 years working with kids in classroom settings, supporting both general education and special education students ages 5–16. I hold a Special Education teaching credential and have 4 years of experience as a special education teacher for 2nd, 3rd, and 9th grades. I have also worked as a nanny and tutor with children ages 1.5 - 12 years old. Working closely with children of different abilities has taught me patience, creativity, and how to meet kids where they are. I offer babysitting, tutoring, house sitting, cooking, pet sitting, and elderly care. I genuinely love spending time with children—whether that’s helping with homework, baking together, heading to the park or museum, or cheering them on at sports practice. I also enjoy swimming, running, and staying active, which helps me keep up with energetic kids. I’m reliable, caring, and hands-on, and I always aim to create a safe, fun, and supportive environment where kids feel comfortable and parents feel confident.
