Child Care

I have been married to a wonderful Italian man for the last 22 years and we didn't have any children. (I have an amusing parrot). I enjoy having children in my life. I have worked with children for over 15 years as a Nanny and at a Preschool. I think that being a mentor is a wonderful thing, to be able to make a difference in a child's life. I enjoy working with early school age & elementary (4-10 yrs old). I will be available for part-time childcare in the afternoons starting on August 3rd, 2020. Thank you! :)

Motherly Caring And Loving Nanny

(2)
Not only am I an experienced mother of two successful adults! My child care provider experiences consist of meal prepping, changing diapers, light house work, running errands, pick up and drop off to school, setting up play dates and supervising play dates. I have also brought to the table my academic skills. I'm a fun nanny. I take the kids out for ice cream, provide stimulating and educational play, arts & crafts, sky high, museums, beaches and Malibu. I work well under pressure and can solve about any conflicts that will come my way. Further responsibilities consist of taking the children to their activities swimming classes, soccer, basketball, horse back riding, vaulting, and dance classes. I am very patient, it is a must for me to communicate with the parents and make sure we are on the same track with the kids. I enjoy keeping children engaged in activities and try to limit their time of technology devices.

Wendy (Yesenia) worked for our family for about 1.5 years, beginning when my daughter was 4 months to about 2 years. She was caring and loving with our daughter, and was trustworthy. We required that our daughter was on a sleeping and eating schedule, which Yesenia was able to follow including helping us train our daughter to sleep alone during daytime naps.

Full-Time Babysitter Available

(3)
I have been in the childcare business for over 20 years. I teach kids Spanish and get them interested in art and other fun activities. When working with children, my primary concern is safety. I also love making the "babysitting experience" fun and enjoyable. I like to take care of kids because I feel that they learn from me. It's a fun atmosphere and I get to learn new things from the children as well. I am respectful, fun, kind and always willing to lend a helping hand.
