Find an after school nanny in Mission Viejo, CA

Hello, parents! My name is Liyana a 47-year-old artist, photographer, healer, and mother. I have a deep love for young children, as my own daughter is now a teenager and I miss the joy that little ones bring. Kids are precious and always keep me feeling young and joyful. With a background in working with infants and young children, including daycare and volunteering at schools, I have a wealth of experience in caring for and engaging with kids of all ages. My passion for art, photography, and healing has led me to incorporate these passions into my babysitting services, offering activities that stimulate creativity and imagination. I believe in limiting screen time for kids and instead focus on reading stories, doing art projects, and engaging in other activities that promote natural growth and development. I am available for evening and weekend babysitting, allowing parents to enjoy a night out knowing their children are in good hands. I am dedicated to creating a safe and nurturing environment for children, and I am committed to being a trustworthy and reliable caregiver for your family. Let me help you enjoy some much-needed time for yourselves while your little ones are in the care of someone who is both experienced and passionate about working with children. In addition to evening and weekend availability, I am also able to accommodate daytime babysitting depending on my schedule. I am also available for house sitting, providing peace of mind for families who may be away for an extended period of time. Whether you need a reliable caregiver for a night out or a longer-term solution for your childcare needs, I am here to help. Let me be your trusted partner in caring for your children and home.

I'm a warm, fun-loving, and enthusiastic nanny with over 10 years of experience caring for children from newborns (including preemies) through school age. Ive had the privilege of working with multiple families, which has given me a deep understanding of child development, patience, compassion and the importance of creating a safe nurturing environment. As the oldest of three, caring for others has always come naturally to me. I truly love all aspects of childcare -- from hands-on playtime and mealtimes to outdoor adventures and supporting them through age appropriate milestones. I strive to create a positive, engaging and loving experience for every child in my care. Im happy to provide references upon request and am also very comfortable with family pets.

I am experienced in caring for children of all ages, from infants to teenagers. I know how to feed infants, sterilize bottles, and always hold the baby after feeding. At the same time, I can take care of light household tasks, such as washing the baby’s clothes, transferring them to the dryer, and doing small cleanups like washing dishes. I am able to create a daily schedule for your child’s comfort, helping to establish a routine that also supports parents in the long term. I know many educational songs, play musical instruments, and teach children basic manners and etiquette. I can put children to sleep and gently help them transition toward independent sleep. I also know how to bathe and wash children. In addition, I can help at night when a child has colic or if parents need proper rest. I am available for additional hours with some advance notice and will always show up when needed. I am comfortable working long periods without days off, such as up to three weeks, both day and night. I strictly follow all rules and instructions provided and take my work very seriously.

Hi! I am a recent college graduate with a degree in Psychological Science and a minor in Legal Studies. I was raised between Laguna Beach and Romania and spent the past four years living in Rome, Italy, pursuing my education. I have been fortunate to travel extensively, which has given me a love for experiencing different cultures, trying new things, and bringing a little curiosity, culture, and adventure into everyday life. I am bilingual in Romanian and have a good understanding of Spanish and Italian. I have cared for children ranging from 1–11 years old and genuinely love being around kids. I am active, outdoorsy, very tidy, and love cooking healthy (but actually delicious!) meals. I’m also someone who prefers real-life play, creativity, and getting outside over screens. I would love to be someone your family feels comfortable and confident having around your little ones!

I am a dedicated childcare provider and a current teacher at a licensed daycare, bringing both professional training and extensive hands-on experience to families. I've been actively babysitting since I was 18, specializing in the care of toddlers and school-age children up to 13yrs old. My background gives me expertise in creating safe, engaging, and educational environments, managing routines, and providing reliable support. While I enjoy unwinding with friends, walks, and binge-watching shows in my free time, I bring a calm, positive, and energetic approach to my work, prioritizing your children’s well-being and happiness.
