We have a loving, responsible nanny who we must part with. She has been living with us for 4 and half years, starting before my two daughters were born. Our daughters are now 4 and 2.5 and they love her so much. She is like part of our family and we hate to part with her. We would like for her to continue living with us so my girls can still see her in the evenings and work for another family during the day. We live in Moopark and she drives. Her english is not very good, but neither is my Spanish and we have figured it out all these years. If you are interested or know of a kind family in need of an incredible nanny, please email me at accuilty at sbcglobal.net
AND
We currently live in Westwood, and are relocating to the valley in June. Unfortunately, it\'s too far for our Nanny to travel. However, we did ask / beg her to come. Her name is Estella. Her number is 310.405.9394. She's been our Nanny for approx 1 yr 4 mths, and has cared for our daughter who is 18 mths old. Had we not have moved, she would also have cared for our newborn boy. In addition to caring for our kids, she's handled light housekeeping. If anyone is interested in hearing more about her, and wants to speak with me directly, they can call 310.508.4229. Thanks, Kara
AND
Sandra is great with kids, she does light housekeeping, my house is always organized when I come home. She has been with me since my youngest was a few months old. She is always on time and drives. You can contact me with questions elysekessler at msn.com or call me at 818-681-7800.
AND
We're moving in June and I'm quitting my part time job and have to let go of our wonderful nanny, Anabella. She has been with us since January 2005 when she started watching our then 3 month old son. Now she takes wonderful care of our 2.5 year old son and 9 month old daughter. We have been very fortunate to have had her help us the past couple of years. We have never doubted her ability to care for our children and make their days fun. She would love to find a new family to work for in the SF Valley only. She has over 15 years experience as a nanny. She would prefer to work 3-4 days a week. Her English is good, she is a US Citizen, and she can drive children. She does not do any cooking or housekeeping. You may contact her through her daughter Suheydy, (818) 731-9503. I would be happy to provide more information or answer any questions. Lisa khlp at yahoo.com
AND
I have a fantastic housekeeper who needs more days of work. Our new nanny will be cleaning for us so she will have Thursday's open now. Her name is Leticia, and she is lovely, hard working, always on time and our house is always spotless after she leaves. She is super sweet with my 3 year old daughter and my two dogs. She is absolutely trustworthy and I recommend her highly She would prefer to work in Sherman Oaks, Burbank, Studio City, Valley Village, North Hollywood, Hollywood, Pico- Robertson and West Hollywood. People can email me for a reference at eileen at mercolino.com. Contact Leticia and leave a message for her at 323-934-1622.
AND
This amazing woman has become my part time nanny this past month. I was supposed to share her with another woman (as I have done in the past), but that woman decided to cut back her hours needed, so it kinda left me in a lurch. Anyway, I had never searched for a nanny on craigslist, but there she was in all her glory: college grad (minor in child development), English is her first (and only, I think) language, so there are no communication issues whatsoever. She takes my one year old on long walks, where they stop and look at snails or catch lizards (she'll literally walk from my house to Griffith Park, which is about a half hour, uphill trek!) She drives (Volvo), is always on time, and is willing to work with someone without an initial obligation (in other words, take her for a test drive, which is what I did and I totally fell in love!) I have her Mondays, Wednesdays & Fridays and she needs at least 6-7 hours on Tuesdays and Thursdays. I'd be willing to give up Fridays if need be (or share them) -- Jessica just needs full time employment (I don't necessarily need her Fridays). If you are a worry wart or you don't allow your baby to go outdoors for "adventure" walks to the park, etc., then Jessica is not for you. If you have a preschooler who refuses to have a babysitter anymore, she will win your child over (as she did mine) by treating him/her as her equal, making them feel "cool" and "bigger" than their little sibling(s). Jessica is cool and relaxed yet has this contagiously positive energy about her -- she truly is a child at heart, which makes her the ideal playmate for my child. She'll do light housekeeping, but that's not really why I have her there -- she is TEACHING my child about the world, not just hanging out with her nanny friends, texting all day. Anyone interested should contact her directly at (310) 804-1494 or at faeriepoppins23 at yahoo.com. She lives in Hollywood and the ideal family would live nearby. Her rate is $15 (and well worth every penny!) Don't miss out on this rare opportunity for a nanny who is a "keeper". Thanks, Tracy Sarkissian vayvay28 at mac.com
AND
Sarita Barrera is looking for full time work as a nanny/housekeeper. She has flexible hours, as her own children are grown. She speaks only a little bit of English. She drives and lives in the North San Fernando Valley. She is very warm with children and is an outstanding house cleaner. For more information you can contact her daughter who speaks perfect English. Call Karen 818.671.7454. Thanks, sharon at UnderTheSunPromo.com
AND
Teresa has been working for us for 3 months, and since I now have decided to spend a bit more time with my baby we'd like to share her with another loving family. She is available full days on Monday and Thursday, and possibly mornings on Tues./Wed./Thurs. (depending on where you live). Teresa is a mature woman, speaks perfect English (from Scotland), is incredibly reliable, a safe driver and has fantastic references, both as a live-in and live-out nanny. Will also do baby's laundry, prepare baby's food and tidy up the kitchen (immaculate!). Prefers to work with one child in Calabasas, Woodland Hills, West Hills, Encino, Sherman Oaks, Studio City or vicinity. You are welcome to call me, Debra, at (818) 591-2700, or you can contact Teresa directly at (801) 458-2250. She lives in Studio City and has her own car.
AND
GREAT NANNY looking to pick up a few days. MONICA (323.833.2340) has been a life savor. She watches my 7 month old Mondays & Wednesdays. She needs more days and I can't give them to her. If you are needing someone on Tuesdays/Thursdays/Fridays (8 hour day) please give her a call. She is CPR certified, she drives, speaks perfect english (was born here), has 2 children of her own and she is great with my son. THANKS - Michelle - 323.957.9706 or michellepurple3 at aol.com

However, the Beauty of Health is Timeless. Today over 60 million people in the United States are considered significantly overweight. Being overweight can cause serious health risks such as diabetes, hypertension, heart disease, stroke and sleep apnea.

The program will focus on fitting healthy eating and moderate physical activity into your daily life. It complements your medical care by helping you to develop skills that will continue to be helpful to you when the study is over. All participants in this study will have the chance to benefit from the Healthy Lifestyle Program.

A personalized approach to Weight management
Recommendations will be tailored to your lifestyle
