Norma $35 per hour for 1 child

My name is Norma and I have 2 daughters of my own. I’ve taken care of all my nieces and nephews, including my friends kids. I’m very bubbly, kind, gentle and very caring with kids and babies and animals. I love cooking and cleaning, having everything in order is key for me. I also have my BLS certification so I know how to react and what to do in a CPR scenario.

Ella $25 per hour for 1 child

General: Hi! My name is Ella, and I’m a high school student in the South Bay area! I’m the oldest sibling in my family and have spent years helping care for younger siblings, cousins, and family friends (especially newborns and elementary-aged kids). My family jokingly calls me "momma number two" because I naturally take on a caring and responsible role with younger children! I’m very outgoing, patient, and creative, and I genuinely love spending time with kids. I’m involved in ASB at my school, work as a peer tutor, and serve as a conflict mediator on campus, which has taught me leadership, communication, patience, and how to handle situations calmly and respectfully. I also own a small baking business and love creative activities like baking, crafts, hair braiding, games, and helping with homework. I always try to create a fun, safe, and comforting environment for children while still being responsible and dependable. Child Care: I have experience caring for children of many different ages, especially newborns, toddlers, elementary-aged children, and younger siblings/cousins. Since I’m the oldest sibling, I’ve naturally taken on a leadership and caregiving role for most of my life! I’m especially comfortable with younger kids because I enjoy being interactive and engaging with them. In middle school, I even created a little “school” setup at home for my younger siblings where I would help teach them and plan activities. I love helping children learn, feel included, and have fun in a positive environment! One thing that is especially important to me when caring for children is safety. I naturally tend to be very cautious, attentive, and aware of my surroundings, especially when younger kids are involved. Whether it’s supervising outdoor activities, staying alert around water, or making sure children are playing safely, I always prioritize creating a secure environment while still keeping things fun. I’m al Special Skills/Talents: Some of my special skills include tutoring and homework help, baking, creative activities, hair braiding, and working well with children who need patience or emotional support. Because I’m a conflict mediator at school, I’m also very good at staying calm, listening carefully, and handling disagreements fairly and respectfully. I’m naturally very nurturing and comforting, but I’m also energetic and fun. I love making kids laugh and helping them feel safe, included, and happy. I'm not afraid to make a fool out of myself!

Hi families! 🧸 I’m 46 and I’ve been a nanny for 15 years. I’ve cared for more than 200 families with kids from 2 weeks to 15 years old.

Booked by 24 families in Lawndale, CA

Hi, I was born and raised in Honolulu. I attended La Pietra Hawaii School for Girls at Diamond Head from 6th grade to 12th. I graduated with my BS in Global Media from The New School in NYC May 2021. I graduated with my Masters in Liberal & Media Studies, May 2022 from The New School of Social Research. I grew up with a houseful of pets! I am Red Cross certified in pediatric first aid, CPR, AED and child care training. I have a fully clear background check. I love children and they love me! I have a car and can transport children as needed - with mileage reimbursement in addition to my hourly rate, or I can drive the family car. I do not have a car seat. I am looking for occasional afternoon and/or weeknight sitting. I recently started a full-time pre-K teaching assignment at a Manhattan Beach area elementary school so I prefer weekday afternoons to be near my school. Contact me if you think I would be a good fit for your family! Chase

“Chase is terrific! Our son took to her right away, and when she left he told us "we really really had a lot of fun". Chase was punctual, smart, friendly and of course, great with kids :). Look forward to working ith her again!”
