Hi, my name is Cynthia! I have been working with children for about proximately the last 5 years. I started by watching my nieces and nephews before taking care of my friends kids. I usually babysit children at ages 1-8 but I am willing to babysit kids a little bit older. While I do not own a car, or know how to drive one, but I do have my own means of transportation to arrive on time. I can even do light housework and do not mind animals being around.
“Cynthia has been amazing prompt and very helpful with my little one and our household. She pays attention always on time and my daughter enjoys time with her. ”

Hello! My name is Nia and I have 15 years babysitting newborns, infants and children. I have professional experience at a daycare for ages 1-4 as well as in my 6th year working through a private babysitting company. I also have experience coaching 6 year old basketball I am also comfortable watching and helping the elderly with basic tasks such as cooking, cleaning around the house and also just providing company. I can keep them quite entertained with my stories. I used to work at the local animal shelter and prior to that was a successful dog walker so I am very comfortable with all animals. I’m very energetic and nurturing so I do really well entertaining my 3 year old perfect nephew when I babysit him weekly.

As a child, some of my fondest memories were with a fun and caring babysitter. I want to provide this similar positive experience for the next generation! Having fun is always a priority, and safety is always number one in my book. I recently obtained my bachelor's in psychology at UCSB with a focus in child development and neurodiversity, and am excited to begin my master's in social welfare at UCLA in fall 2026. I am passionate about positive youth development, and in my recent professional roles, I have provided ABA support to neurodiverse kids ages 3-16, infant development therapy for kids ages 0-3, and served as a case manager at a 24hr youth shelter for 12-17 year olds. Personally, I am an easily excited individual who enjoys the outdoors, animals, the beach, and learning new things!
