Find a babysitter in Malibu, CA

I have 10+ years of experience for newborn-11 years old, have a PhD in engineering, tutor/professor experience, and am BLS, CPR, and NREMT certified. I’m a fun, reliable, and caring babysitter who loves working with children of all ages—from tiny tots to teens! Whether it’s bedtime stories, overnights, or busy after-school evenings, I’m here to make your routines smoother and your kids feel safe, happy, and loved. 💕 I’m all about creating engaging educational activities, and am also happy to cook, help tidy up, and keep things running smoothly so parents can relax knowing everything’s taken care of on date nights out of the house!

**A Little About Me** I have experience working with children in a variety of settings, including tennis lessons, daycare, nannying, and summer camps. I've had the opportunity to work with children of all ages, from as young as one year old through their teenage years (14). One of my favorite things about working with kids is that every day is a new adventure! I love their creativity, imagination, curiosity, and the fun that comes with getting to see the world through their eyes. I enjoy finding ways to keep kids engaged, active, and entertained while creating a safe, supportive, and fun environment for them to grow and learn. **Pets** I absolutely love animals! I have a Shih Tzu of my own who is truly my whole world, so I'm very comfortable around pets of all kinds. I'm more than happy to help with whatever your family may need, whether that's feeding, walking, letting pets out, or simply giving them some extra love and attention while I'm there. **Household Help** I'm also happy to help beyond childcare! In previous nannying positions, I've helped with errands and household tasks to give parents a little extra time to spend with their children when they get home. Whether it's tidying up, laundry, grocery runs, meal prep, or other odds and ends, I'm very open to helping wherever I can make life a little easier for your family. Overall, I love being someone families can count on, and I'm always happy to jump in wherever an extra set of hands is needed! I do have a full time job, so I am mainly looking for part time evening or weekend roles.

I am a dependable, compassionate, and patient caregiver with extensive experience supporting children and families. As an employee of LAUSD, I have been thoroughly vetted through government background checks and professional screening requirements. I am fully bilingual in English and Spanish, allowing me to communicate effectively with diverse families. My experience includes working with children of varying ages and needs, providing academic support, supervision, homework assistance, and emotional encouragement. Families appreciate my reliability, strong communication skills, organization, and commitment to creating a safe, positive, and nurturing environment. I am trustworthy, adaptable, and dedicated to providing high-quality care tailored to each family’s unique needs.

My name is Xenia. I believe in catering to a child's emotional and intellectual needs. I believe in explaining the reason for things versus telling a child "No". Instead, I will tell a child, "That's not something we put in our mouth because it's not food. We only put food and medicine in our mouth." In that way, the child is able to make the connection in its brain in a healthy and productive manner instead of bringing fear and rejection to the child. I love cats and dogs. I am open to babysit children, your fur babies, and perform light domestic work.

I’m a caring, reliable caregiver with experience working with children of all ages, and I also bring the perspective of being a parent to an infant. I hold a Master of Public Health (MPH) degree, which has shaped my thoughtful, safety-focused approach to caregiving. I’m comfortable with everything from newborn care to engaging older kids in play, and I always aim to create a calm, nurturing environment while following each family’s routines. I treat every child with patience, attentiveness, and the same care I give my own.
