Looking to share best nanny in the world. We have had our nanny for almost two years now, and she is nothing short of amazing.  She not only cooks, tidies, speaks fluent English and drives, but she has been essential in the cognitive and physical development of our daughter.  Our daughter speaks Spanish, sign language and English and she's not yet two years old, and we credit this to the teaching and love from our nanny.  That being said, we would like to start sending our daughter to school in the fall, albeit three days a week - Monday, Wednesday and Friday. We are looking for a family in the Tarzana/Encino/Sherman Oaks/Studio City area who need a nanny only on these days, so she can remain with us on Tuesdays and Thursdays. Believe me, if we could afford school and a full-time nanny, we would definitely keep her full time. If you have any questions, my name is Jennifer and I can be reached at bethj73 at gmail.com.

Nanny with 20 years of experience  available NOW to work in the  greater San Gabriel Valley area. If you are looking for a loving, gentle, reliable, and nurturing nanny, then you should meet Edith.  She is available at the beginning of August. My wife and I are her current employer and recently are no longer in need of childcare.  But this is sad for us because over the past year we have been so amazed and honored to have Edith care for our daughter.  So we are helping her find a new family as she has given so much to us.  She is just that wonderful. Edith is completely reliable, always loving, and perfectly patient.  We didn't know what to expect before we found a nanny as our daughter was very young and we are new parents.  Edith washed away all our fears and worries in the first day as she is a pro.  With all of the stories we tell our friends about her (and we talk about her a lot) we're always told that we hit the jackpot when we found her.   And we will miss her dearly. If you are interested, please contact Edith's daughter, at the following email: betsy0722 at yahoo.com. And she can put you in touch with me as I'd like to tell you much more about Edith.

Monica Champney was employed as our nanny for 5 years from July 2004 to June 2009.  She was a valued member of our household and we trusted her completely with our three children, two girls ages 2, 4 and a 7 year old boy.  Our children absolutely adored her and would shower her with kisses when she left to go home at the end of the day. Unfortunately, I have made some changes in my schedule and no longer need as many hours of childcare. Monica is a fun-loving, energetic person who actively engages the children in a variety of ways. For example she could often be found teaching my 4 year old her letters or helping my 7 year old with his homework. My girls loved to dress up and dance to music with her. And she enjoyed playing outside with the kids on the swing set or taking them on long walks/bike rides. And she made sure that my two year old went to her fair share of classes and story times. While Monica can be a lot of fun, she is also comfortable setting limits and enforcing them with the children. She is not a pushover and you can trust her to follow the rules that are set forth for your children. The many years of being a nanny have given her a unique perspective on children and their gifts and challenges, similar to that of a teacher.I would often ask her opinion as she always had something to add that would improve a situation or a plan of action. She drove my children to their activities and when she would drive carpool for my 7 year old, she deftly handled four other boys ages 6 to 12, better than most.  Monica made breakfast and lunch for the children and would often prepare dinner or at least get all the ingredients ready to go. She did errands including dry cleaning and grocery shopping. She did all the laundry and irons like a dream. She is a very competent manager as well and can be trusted to deal with a plumber or handyman if need be.  Monica is very resourceful. If she doesn’t know the answer to something then she will search high and low until she finds it.  She is always reading articles and web pages for the latest and greatest ideas about raising your kids, especially in Los Angeles.  Monica is a tremendous nanny and we feel so fortunate to have had her in our lives for the past five years. The next family that hires her is in for a wonderful experience. Monica is a permanent resident and legally able to work in the US. She is looking for a full time position at $20 per hour.  If you have any questions about Monica contact Melissa at  melgreen at speakeasy.net  To contact Monica directly mchampney90210 at yahoo.com or 310-488-5036

Jen's List reader and mommy, Suzanne, recommends Rachel for full time nanny positions: I'm Rachel, I am Brazilian and have lived in California for 6 months. I love the experience. I'm picking up English more and more. I'm here to study and work, and am looking for a family to live in or live out, full time. I am a flexible person, responsible and loving. I love children and love to spend time with them. Here in California I worked with a lovely family taking care a girl, 8 years old. I prepared her dinner and breakfast, laundry, helped her with home work, and picked her up at school! I also took her on many play dates with friends, parks, libraries, and so on. For me playing with children gives me energy and I find creative ways to exercise, educate and create great, loving relationships with "my" kids! I do not have a car but I have a California driver's license. I'm available to start work now. I study at Santa Monica College and live in Santa Monica!
