I am an experienced and caring babysitter, as well as a mom myself. Being a parent has given me hands-on experience in caring for children, understanding their individual needs, and creating a safe, loving, and nurturing environment. I am patient, responsible, and attentive, and I genuinely enjoy spending time with children. I am comfortable helping with meals, playtime, bedtime routines, homework, and everyday childcare needs. My goal is always to make children feel comfortable, happy, and well cared for while giving parents peace of mind.
Hi families! My name is Juliana, and I’m a caring, experienced, and highly reliable childcare provider with almost 10 years of experience working with children from 2 months old to 3+ years old. I was an au pair for 2.5 years and never went through a rematch. I also have over 2 years of nanny share experience and have cared for babies starting at 4 and 5 months old, supporting them through important developmental stages into toddlerhood. At the moment, I’m looking for overnight childcare opportunities for specific situations, such as events, date nights, weekend trips, or times when parents need extra support. I’m available for weekend overnights, for example from Friday night to Sunday, as well as weekday overnights from around 6:00 PM to 6:00 AM. I also have overnight experience caring for a family with three older children, ages 16, 14, and 12, so I’m comfortable providing overnight support for both younger children and older kids. One family trusted me enough to travel to Mexico for a full week while I stayed with and cared for their baby. I would be happy to provide references upon request. I’m confident with infant and toddler routines, including feeding, naps, diapering, bedtime, play, and emotional support. Families often describe me as trustworthy, patient, calm, and genuinely devoted to the children in my care. I truly love what I do and take pride in creating a safe, loving, and nurturing environment where children feel happy and deeply cared for.
About Me I have 5 years of experience working with children, including after-school programs where I supported students with activities, learning, and development. I am bilingual in English and Spanish and very patient when helping children or families learn new skills. I have built great relationships with the families I’ve worked with and always strive to create a safe, fun, and supportive environment for children. Outside of work, I love to dance, work out, ride my bike, bake, cook, and take walks with my dog.
“We had a wonderful experience with Diana! She took amazing care of our 5-year-old, handling the entire bedtime routine, putting our child to bed, and even feeding our dog. She is incredibly sweet, patient, and caring. Our child absolutely loves her and always looks forward to seeing her. Her bedtime routine is amazing: calm, organized, and comforting, which made evenings so much easier for us as parents. A huge plus for our family is that Diana speaks Spanish, which has been wonderful since our child is learning the language. We really appreciated the extra exposure and encouragement in such a natural way. We always felt confident leaving our child in her care and would highly recommend her to any family looking for a trustworthy and loving babysitter. We will book her again for sure. Thank so much Diana!”
Hi! My name is Melissa, and I am a Biology (Pre-Med) student at Dominican University of California. Caring for others has always been an important part of my life, and I genuinely enjoy helping people of all ages feel safe, supported, and cared for. I have over 7 years of childcare experience through babysitting family members, friends' children, and helping care for my younger siblings. I have experience with children ranging from newborns to teenagers and am comfortable assisting with bottle preparation, feeding, diaper changes, meal preparation, homework help, bedtime routines, and engaging children in fun and educational activities. I enjoy building positive relationships with children and creating an environment where they feel comfortable, encouraged, and valued. In addition to childcare, I currently work as a caregiver for older adults through CareYaya. In this role, I provide companionship and support to seniors experiencing dementia, memory loss, visual impairments, mobility limitations, and other age-related challenges. My responsibilities include meal preparation, light housekeeping, mobility assistance, safety supervision, companionship, and helping clients maintain their daily routines. This experience has strengthened my patience, communication skills, responsibility, and ability to remain calm and compassionate in a variety of situations. I am also a huge animal lover and have a cat of my own. Pets have always been an important part of my life, and I am comfortable caring for cats, dogs, and other household pets. Whether it's feeding, walking, playtime, or simply providing companionship. So I can assure you, your pets will be deeply cared for with me. Families often describe me as kind, dependable, patient, and attentive. I understand the trust that comes with caring for a child, senior, or pet, and I take that responsibility seriously. My goal is always to provide a safe, positive, and supportive environment while giving families peace of mind that their loved ones are in good hands. I look forward to meeting new families and providing whatever help I can. Digital Portfolio: [removed]
Hi! I’m Vianca, a warm, caring, and dependable babysitter who genuinely enjoys spending time with children. I have experience caring for babies, toddlers, and young children, and I’m comfortable helping with their daily routines, including meals, diaper changes, naps, bath time, bedtime, and keeping them engaged and entertained. I’m patient, attentive, and I always want children to feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I enjoy reading, playing, doing age-appropriate activities, spending time outdoors, and taking trips to the park or library when appropriate. I understand that every child and family has their own routine and preferences, so I’m happy to follow your instructions and adapt to what works best for your family. My goal is for parents to feel comfortable and confident knowing their children are in good hands. I’m currently looking for occasional and part-time babysitting opportunities and would love the chance to meet your family.
