Hello my name is Lindsay, I am currently a graduate student in the Masters of Social Work program at California State University, Northridge. Besides having to take care of all my younger cousins, I have work experience in elementary, middle, and high school levels in the education system. Additionally, I have experience with tutoring kids in math, english and science. I love being around children and have worked as a coach at multiple basketball clinics because they are so fun to be around. I have experience with taking care and babysitting infants, toddlers, and teenagers. I feel very confident with caring for children due to the various settings I’ve been able to work in. I am very patient and caring and would ensure that every child I watch is taken care of. I love to make sure that every kid I watch is happy and comfortable. I am also able to help tutor kids in primary school as well as middle school. Furthermore, I am also very organized and love to do housekeeping work. Besides taking care of the children, I am willing to help the parents with any other tasks they need to get done that they don't have time to do. I hope I can help with any families that may need an extra hand! Thank you for your time and consideration!

Hello, my name is Nicole! I’m 26 years old and originally from Poland. I’m currently living in Los Angeles, Encino and have several years of childcare experience, including working as an Au Pair (live in nanny) where I cared for children of different ages and supported busy families in their everyday routines. I’m CPR certified and have experience with kids from ages 2 to 15. Over time, I’ve learned how to find that sweet spot between fun and structure whether we’re doing crafts, playing outside, helping with homework or just winding down after a busy day. I always want kids to feel safe, comfortable, and free to be themselves, and for you to feel relaxed knowing they’re in good hands. In my free time, I’m very active. I enjoy sports and going to the gym, which helps me stay energetic. I love reading books and cooking, and I often share my passion for learning and healthy meals with the little ones I care for. I am a reliable and a safe driver so transportation and errands are never a problem. I’m responsible, caring, punctual and always ready to create a fun and positive environment for children! I’m more than happy to chat and answer any questions over a phone call, feel free to reach out anytime!

Hi – My name is Chisa and I’m from Japan. I am offering child care, senior care, dog sitting and household services. Although I don’t have formal nanny experience, I was a nurse in Japan for 15 years. At my previous employment in Japan, I worked in the emergency room for three years and was a pediatrics nurse 2-3 times/month. I did triage for kids, checking the temprature/breaths, and helped docter's phlebotomy, making sure kids were getting nebulizers. Basically, I love kids, they make me smile! Adittionally, I am a Certified Clinical Medical Assistant (CCMA) in California with BSL certificate. I love interacting with infants and children, and I have extensive experience working with seniors. I’m a dog lover and happy to work with families with dogs! Cats are welcome too!

“My girls immediately liked Chisa and didn't want her to leave. She fit right in with our family and we are looking forward to working with her on a regular basis. She is friendly, kind, asks important questions, and is great with the kids. My dog also loved getting extra pets!”

Hi! I’m Elisabeth. I truly enjoy spending time with children and animals—especially dogs and cats. I believe they bring so much joy and positivity, and I love creating a safe, caring, and fun environment for them. Spanish is my first language (I’m from Argentina), and I’m happy to speak both Spanish and English with families. I’ve been caring for children since I was young. After moving to Los Angeles, I gained experience working with infants, toddlers, and older children. I’m patient, responsible, and attentive to each child’s unique needs. I look forward to supporting your family!

“Elisabeth was very kind, friendly, and personable. My daughter had a fantastic time with her and was sad when time was up. I will be hiring her again and recommend as well :) ”
