Find nannies in Santa Monica, CA

I've recently taken a break from running operations for tech startups on the East Coast, and relocated from Boston, MA to sunny Los Angeles! As I've settled into West Coast life, I've enjoyed building a practice of home care, dog sitting, personal assistance, and household services. I have clientele from Long Beach to Santa Monica to the Hollywood Hills and have helped them with childcare, pet care, errands, house cleaning, cooking, scheduling, driving and small business support. Personally, I'm a proud dog mom of Riley, a 3 year old Belgian Shepherd, and Skipper, a 5 year old Shih Tzu; and an even prouder aunt to 10 year old Teagan and 7 year old Avery.

Hi, I'm Lisa. My sister and I are currently in the beginning stages of our digital/design business, (I have a degree in Multimedia Design) and we also teach private and group art lessons as well, which gives my schedule flexibility. I'm also free in the evenings until late and on weekends. (I offer child care, senior care, and pet care as well!) I am very patient, protective, bubbly, and empathetic. Kids have so much joy, creativity and curiosity which is why I love working with kids. I have 8 years of babysitting experience. I have also worked at an after school program with 4-7 year olds which I enjoyed immensely, combining learning with games/activities and lots of art. My responsibilities have included taking kids to the park, playing boardgames, art & crafts, playing basketball, handball, tutoring, preparing meals, story time, and bedtime routine.

Hi, I’m Natále, a musician, writer, and creative community builder with a lifelong connection to caring for children. All the women in my family (my grandmother, stepmother, and aunts) have run daycares for as long as I can remember, so I’ve been surrounded by kids (and helping with them) since I was one myself. Over the years, I’ve worked as a camp counselor, voice coach for youth, and mentor for young creatives. I love helping children express themselves through music, art, and storytelling while also creating a calm and safe environment where they feel seen and supported. Beyond childcare, I host community gatherings centered on connection and creativity, so bringing people together comes naturally to me. Families describe me as intuitive, reliable, and deeply caring. I believe in nurturing imagination and self-expression just as much as structure. I’m comfortable caring for kids of all ages, assisting with homework, organizing creative play, and supporting household needs or pets. Most importantly, I treat each family I work with as an extension of my own, bringing warmth, patience, and positive energy into their space.

Hello! I’m Allison, a compassionate, optimistic, intuitive being with over five years of experience caring for little ones. While I've been familiar with children of all ages, I am most experienced with those between 18 months to ten years old. I am led by a deep sense of love and reverence for all beings and a desire to make everyone around me feel truly seen. I enjoy fostering environments where children feel respected, safe, and nurtured in their curiosity and unique modes of expression. One of my greatest gifts is my ability to handle stress with grace and positivity, providing a backdrop of emotional regulation for children to learn to navigate their ever-changing emotional highs and lows. I regard all souls to be of equal immeasurable value, therefore I see children as human beings first and foremost. As with adults, I believe their trust and respect must be earned, not demanded. This isn’t to say I’m a pushover. Contrarily, I have a direct manner and establish clear, healthy boundaries. In addition to caring for children, I have experience as a yoga instructor and a recreational dancer. (A long-term professional goal of mine is to work in Dance/Movement based therapy, therefore I value the role of movement in the development and holistic well-being of our little ones). I have two years of experience working as an ESL-tutor and can help kids work towards their academic goals. With my B.A. degree in Creative Writing from Bard College, I love encouraging children to read, watch, listen, analyze, and create their own stories, whether it be through watching movies, dressing up, or playing improv games. Additionally, I enjoy cooking, crafting, decorating, and all the small efforts that make everyday moments feel just a little more special. I have a lifetime of experience caring for dogs and cats of all sizes. While I don’t have experience caring for elderly, I very much enjoy the company of elders and would consider an opportunity to work with them to be a great privilege. Located in Venice. Very flexible hours. Access to reliable transportation.
