Find a babysitter in Encino, CA

hi - i am currently a student at santa monica college and i am offering child care as well as pet care services. I have always enjoyed babysitting and watching children. I love how their creative minds work and think. I find children to be an important part of society. Through every mess and mistake , i will be patient and gentle with them. Children respond well with kindness and being well understood. I would watch two children from time to time and they were four and seven. They enjoyed how i had interacted with them as i was constantly playing with them whether it was barbie or if we were mermaids in the ocean. When you are a child your mind will believe anything and i want to help be the magic in your childs life. I am a very sweet and kind individual who cares for all and is very empathetic I have had two pugs so i have some experience with caring with smaller dogs but larger dogs i do not have experience. I also am allergic to cats

Hi there! I’m Cameron: a native Angeleno, University of New Orleans graduate, part-time screenwriter, and personal assistant/caregiver who truly loves helping folks (and their furry friends) feel seen and supported. I have years of experience dog-sitting pups of all temperaments, energy levels, and special medical/behavioral needs. No two doggos are the same and I take pride in adapting to each one’s unique routine. I also absolutely love animals so taking care of them is a win-win on all fronts. While I used to sit my little cousins, I recently became a godfather and now have experience babysitting the littlest of babies, too, meaning I’m comfortable caring for kids of all ages with patience, structure, and a sense of fun. I do weekly in-home care for individuals with disabilities, which has taught me the importance of empathy, patience, and clear communication. Like I mentioned earlier, I'm also a trained personal assistant backed by years working in a high-intensity, high-demand TV show writers' room. In addition to the usual household assistant duties, I excel at managing schedules, arranging travel, running errands, and keeping spaces tidy and organized (thank you, diagnosed OCD). I can cook (quite well), clean, problem-solve with the best of them, and am lucky to have built up a long list of happy clients who would be even happier to vouch for me! Have any questions or need a bit more info? Don’t hesitate to reach out!

Hello, my name is Autumn and I've recently returned to my hometown of Los Angeles. Firstly, I am a people person! From babies, to children to adults, I am able to connect, serve, meet or play. I come from a large family, so working with and caring for others is in my genes. I was an au-pair in Hamburg, Germany to an infant and her 3 year old sister, as well as a nanny to two pre-teen sisters in Berkeley, CA. With both families I tutored, cooked, played games, crafted, offered transportation, advised, championed, provided recreational activities and sang lullabies. I have assisted elders with tender care, errands, out of state relocation and aquatic exercise! (I recently became a lifeguard and certified swim instructor) Years ago I even learned how to make balloon animals. I am an extremely organized person, very clean, able to cook anything and believe that human connection is always the goal. I drive an all electric vehicle and have a clean driving history. I am the sole caretaker of 2 sweet cats but have also looked after friend's dogs in the past. As a child I had a pet mouse, snake, parakeet and hamster so I'm comfortable with all types! I pay close attention to detail and am excellent at anticipating needs. My friends ask why I'm not a therapist because I'm a great listener AND I'm a certified masseuse. I have much to offer individuals and families of all sizes. Being a caregiver is so much more than customer service as it requires sincere intuition and heart. One has to navigate personal needs while also being present of mind to consider safety, technicalities and timelines. I'm also experienced in home renovations should any minor repairs be required. Collectively, I possess the personal qualities, the particular skillset and the creative talents to care for animals, homes and humans of all ages.

I’m Cynthia, and I’ve worked with kids for years in both creative and educational settings. I’ve taught acting and directed youth theater programs, so I’m very comfortable keeping kids engaged, entertained, and supported in a structured but fun way. I’m responsible, patient, and great at balancing playtime with safety and routines. I’m also CPR trained, experienced with different age groups, and confident handling everything from homework help to bedtime routines. I genuinely enjoy being around kids and creating an environment where they feel safe, heard, and excited to learn and play. I’d love to help out and make things easier for your family.
