Hi, I'm Johnathan, and I provide the "big brother experience" as a manny. As the oldest brother of three, I've supported my siblings through every stage of growing up, and I bring that same energy, care, and guidance to every family I work with. I'm here to make life easier for parents while creating a fun, safe, and structured environment for kids. From tutoring and preparing meals to basic housekeeping and creative play, I handle it all with patience and enthusiasm. I strive to be a positive influence, ensuring your kids feel supported, engaged, and excited to grow and learn. If you're looking for dependable, well-rounded childcare, I'd love to help your family thrive!

I know my review is long but as a Mom I know every detail counts when choosing someone to look after your littles! A lot of people hesitate when hiring a male nanny, but for my rambunctious toddler, it was a life-changing decision. Having positive male role models outside of his immediate family was something I knew was important, and Johnathan exceeded every expectation I had. From day one, he stepped into our home with warmth, patience, and an innate ability to connect with my son in a way that felt both natural and transformative. He not only helped teach my oldest how to play basketball—something that has given him a new sense of confidence—but also brought an energy of mentorship and guidance that has been invaluable. Beyond that, I was amazed at how seamlessly he transitioned into helping with our newborn, showing a level of care and attentiveness that speaks volumes about his character. Johnathan has become like the ultimate big brother to my son while also being a trustworthy, nurturing presence in our home. Finding a male nanny in a market so saturated with female caregivers can be difficult, but for any family looking for a strong yet gentle role model for their child, I cannot recommend him enough. If you have the chance to hire Johnathan, take it—you won’t regret it!
