Hello! My name is Melissa, and I have been babysitting for over 15 years now. I have also worked for after-school programs, summer day camps, sleep away camps, and more. I absolutely adore children, their bright energy is so contagious! I have experience with keeping children to their routines and schedules, as well as ample experience doing fun activities like arts and crafts, nature walks, and things that are enjoyable while encouraging development. I also teach kids yoga classes, love dogs, and am available to help out with household tasks as arranged. I took a long hiatus from nannying to work at a school but am now returning and hoping to help out with part-time care or one time needs!
“Melissa was pleasant and professional. Great experience.”

Hello! I grew up in the Chicagoland area, but in 2015 I made the big move west to Los Angeles! I work as a production assistant after getting my film degree at Columbia College Chicago, and I love babysitting to fill up my time when I'm not busy with a production! *currently only interested in newborn/infant/baby clients at this time! Trying to keep it extra safe. ****I require all in the families I sit for who are eligible to be vaccinated and extremely covid conscious! ****I have a four hour minimum on weekdays unless you are a regular family of mine and we have discussed it previously. *****I also have a policy of being paid for the entire time I'm booked. Thank you! I have a range of experience with children. I started off mother's helping, then grew to have many families I regularly babysat as they grew up! I've also handled many children working at Vacation Bible School, and I worked for about a year and a half at a preschool. I have also been a full time au pair in Spain for two children. On set I’m often in care of minors, aiding the school teacher in the safety and care of the kids. Children teach me so much about patience, understanding, creativity, and being open-minded - things that I feel I often lose when living in such a fast-paced city area with people only my age. I always look forward to seeing children grow in even the little ways of life. I consider myself very energetic and enthusiastic, so children are often a perfect fit to my overall temperament. I'm also very calm and patient, so I stay level-headed in crazy situations. I am very eager to hear from all of you and meet you and your children!

Hi! My name is Amanda and I am a college student at CSUN. I am 21 years old and I began babysitting at 13 years old. I strive for long-term connections with the families I help and I am CPR and first-aid certified by The Red Cross. I have been a youth club volleyball coach for 3 seasons now so I feel I have great experience with kids and teens with different personalities. I am friendly and energetic and get along well with all ages! Experience: 2 months-15 years
