Mia G.|Santa Cruz, CA

$25-30/hr • 18 yrs old

Part- Time Caregiver

Responds within a few days

Hi, my name is Mia. Just messaging because I'm interested in the nannying position you've listed. A little about myself is that I grew up with my nieces and nephews, since I was 6 years old. From being left to care for them I have developed experience in basic child care including, feeding, entertainment, and cleaning. I've been a constant presence within my nieces and nephews lives, helping them to learn academically and emotionally, as well as morally, while maintaining a lighthearted aura. At this point caring for children has become second handed. I would also like to include that as a student at UCSC, I have the ability to get COVID tested and I do so twice a week for the safety of myself and those around me. I hope to hear back and if you have any questions feel free to ask :))

Bri was a wonderful nanny for our 3 year old. She is punctual, thoughtful, creative, kind, and caring. She always had ideas for fun activities, kept our daughter engaged, and was a sleep wizard at nap time. She would go above and beyond to get creative with playtime, even making dress up accessories or bringing toys to add to the fun. I would absolutely hire her again.

Genuine Kind Spirit Looking To Be A Big Sister

Responds within a few hours

Hi! My name is Elle. I am 31 y. o., a massage therapist, & entrepreneur. I moved to SC in July from San Diego. I love getting to know kids- laugh, play, relate, and empathize with them. I believe in natural health and a natural environment for learning and growing. I am a kid at heart and encourage our world to be the playground/classroom! I was a Teacher's Aide at a daycare in WA for over a year. I would float between classrooms and work with children from ages infant to school-age. This has been one of my most memorable vocations yet! I found it to be so fun and natural to adapt to the various needs of each class. I loved the creativity involved and being quick on your toes! Our influence on children shape who they become: their beliefs about themselves and the world. I just want to make a positive difference in their lives and leave a lasting impression of love, laughter, and acceptance! Their innocence and joy gives me just as much in return.

Savannah Z.|Santa Cruz, CA

Patient Listener And Adventure Creator

Hello! Throughout my teen years, I babysat for various families with children aging 2-12 when parents were at work, running errands, or on date night. During my time spent with the kiddos, we would dance, play pretend, play outside, do arts and crafts, and occasionally go on a field trip to local parks or attractions. I set aside screen time as a time for me to tidy up the house, prepare meals, or as instructed by the parents. From 16-17 years old, I helped a lady run an after-school horse camp where I would teach kids about the etiquette of being around large animals, how to groom, tack up, and how to ride. I worked with 5-10 kids at a time, ages ranging from 5-12 years old. We also completed homework in the barn so that it would be done by the time parents picked them up. I am not afraid to ask questions if I am confronted with a situation I've never been in before but, I am also quick to take action gracefully and calmly. I love helping and watching children learn and grow!!!

Reviewed by Jessica J. Dec 2020 5/5 stars

Janay took care of our energetic 2 1/2 year old daughter and quickly stole our hearts. She was thoughtful, very attentive to our daughter and has the most calming, peaceful and patient demeanor even with the at times frustrating toddler moments. Janay responded well to modifications and specific requests along the way. Our daughter would run to the door looking for Janay minutes before she was supposed to arrive and would scream with glee when she arrived. Janay only left working with us due to a move. We were so sad to see her leave and asked her to let us know ASAP if she ever moves back.
