Find a babysitter in Studio City, CA

Hi, I'm Fiona. I'm from the UK but I've been living in the US for 7 years. I’m offering child care and senior care. I have been working with children for over 20 years in many different settings. I've taught music and dance classes to mums with little ones, taught dance in Primary Schools, been a full time nanny to a beautiful baby boy from 3 months until he was 2. I cared for a little girl from the age of 3-5. We loved baking together and going on outside adventures. More recently I was the director of a thriving children's ministry for a church. I was in charge of the welfare, curriculum programming and entertainment of over 150 children between the ages of 0-11 every Sunday. This included a nursery. I was in this role for 5 years. I have an undergraduate degree in Dance, and a Masters in Writing for Children from the University of Winchester, UK. Right now, I work for an organization where I write Bible studies for children who struggle with reading, helping them to engage in creative ways. I've also taught seated dance classes in senior homes across London. I spearheaded and intergenerational project called "Connecting the Generations", bringing little ones and seniors together through music and movement. I love to sing, dance, bake, read stories, and spend time outside. I aim to see those in my care thrive. I always bring approachability, warmth, patience, and fun when I'm looking after kids and seniors.

Hello! I am a mother of two children of my own, and have been caring for children for over 30 years. I have worked with different families over those years in which I’ve started with babies until they’re in high school. I love to do fun activities, museums, sports games with the children. I love to listen to music and read books.

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.

I am a caring, dependable, and energetic caregiver with a strong passion for working with children of all ages. I have over 7+ years of experience. My experience caring for kids has taught me the importance of patience, creativity, and consistency in creating a safe and nurturing environment where children can thrive. I enjoy engaging with kids through play, learning activities, and routines that encourage growth, independence, and confidence. I bring excellent communication and problem-solving skills, allowing me to connect easily with both children and parents. Whether helping with homework, preparing healthy meals, organizing fun activities, or maintaining structure throughout the day, I approach every task with enthusiasm and attention to detail. In addition to my child care experience, I’ve also provided support to seniors, pets, and households—skills that have strengthened my ability to multitask, stay organized, and adapt to different needs and personalities. My compassionate nature and dependable work ethic make me someone families can trust to care for their children. I take pride in being reliable, positive, and calm under pressure, always putting the safety and well-being of children first while fostering a warm, loving environment that encourages learning and joy every day.

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.
