Find nannies in Surfside, CA

2.7s Hi, I'm Marta, a Huntington Beach-based creative and food entrepreneur with a background in creative industries, sociology, psychology, and food-tech. I came to the US as an au pair in 1999, cared for my younger brother's family and friends' kids—managing routines, educational activities, and emotional support—and worked as a personal chef for families through Food Polka, preparing healthy, customized meals for different needs and occasions. I love mentoring youth and connecting well with kids of all ages, drawing from my experience guiding young creatives in the industry to foster skills and confidence. My training helps me understand behaviors and create structured, positive environments with activities like arts, crafts, storytelling, and limited screen time. Fluent in English and Polish, I'm skilled in safe care, meal prep, and engaging play. Available part-time in LA—ready to support your family with reliable, thoughtful childcare.

Hi there! I'm a 26 years old nanny who's been working with kids for over 6 years now. I'm an energetic, friendly, caring and flexible person. English is my second language and I like to share my native language with them (Spanish). I love arts and crafts and baking and always happy to have little helpers with me while doing that.

Hello my name is Hai and I am 50 years young. I come from a family of immigrants who came to the U. S. in 1975 after the Vietnam war. At that time there were 11 members in my family which included my parents and 8 siblings. I was the second youngest child. In 2008 my baby sister passed away from colon cancer when she was only 32. She was a second grade teacher at Lampson Elementary in the Orange Unified School District and loved her students. She won teacher of the year around 2005. She also loved all of our 12 nieces and nephews. We both shared a deep affection for kids. I became an uncle when I was only 10 after my first and oldest niece was born. She is now 40, and has a 2 year young son and a newborn boy. I remember holding her when she was a newborn and she fell asleep in my arms. That was the start of my love and journey with kids. Because of having so many older siblings I have a total of 12 nieces and nephews. I took care of and played with all of them when they were little, so I have many years of experience watching kids. I’m kind, patient, and nurturing. For the past 11 years I’ve been a volunteer with a nonprofit organization called Linc, where I am a mentor at an after school program for kids between kindergarten and 7th grade. I serve them snacks, help them with their homework, and play fun activities with them, including reading, art projects, and games. I won volunteer of the year in 2015. My supervisor at the program loves me and is one of my closest friends. If you need a reference or letter of recommendation from her I would be happy to oblige. I am a kind and responsible individual that you can trust to take care of your loved ones.

I bring over a year of experience in babysitting, complemented by a degree in Sociology. For the past six years, I’ve worked as an after-school teacher, where I specialized in providing homework support, maintaining a well-managed classroom environment, and—most importantly—building strong, positive relationships with children. Currently, I am in my second year of nursing school, which has further strengthened my sense of responsibility, patience, and ability to remain calm and attentive in different situations. I truly enjoy working with children and would love the opportunity to bring my experience, reliability, and caring personality to your family. I would be happy to provide references and answer any questions you may have. Thank you for considering me!

Hi my name is Dana and I’m currently a college student attending cypress college! I absolutely love working with children of all ages, and I’ve been a Girls Scout leader working with young girls and part time with the Boyscouts, for around 4 years now. I’ve been able to deal with children of all ages including seniors in highschool, no child is ever too “hard” to handle, I’ve dealt with every mood swing and every difficult situation you can think of, which has honestly made me a better person and better leader for them as well. I’ve worked with children with severe autism, I’ve worked with blind children, children with disabilities, + Being around children as they grow and learn more about their own personalities and their emotions, has been such an amazing experience to be able to guide them and be someone they could look up to and lean on for advice! please feel free to ask me any questions, and we’ll see if it’s a good fit for you and I!
