Find a babysitter in Tarzana, CA

Hi, I’m Izzy! I recently moved to LA from Northern California, where I was born and raised. I’m an actor who loves working with kids and bringing creativity, patience, and care into everything I do. I graduated from UC Berkeley in Spring 2024 with a degree in Theater and Performance Studies and a minor in Dance, which really shows up in how I connect with kids through movement, imagination, and play. Over the years, I’ve worked with numerous families, caring for children of all ages—from newborns to teenagers. I also spent several summers working at my former preschool during high school, which gave me early hands-on experience in a nurturing and structured environment. I’ve often helped with pet care too, including walking dogs, feeding pets, and keeping them happy and safe while families are out or busy. I have a background check, I’m CPR certified, and I’m currently in the process of getting my substitute teaching license. I genuinely love spending time with kids. Whether we’re dancing, dressing up, coloring, reading stories, going on walks, running errands, or just using our imaginations—I always aim to make our time together fun and meaningful. I’m also great at helping with schoolwork and love creating a calm, safe space where kids feel encouraged to be themselves. I can’t wait to get to know your family and spend time with your amazing kid(s)!

Hello, my name is Kylee, and I received my B. A. in Digital and Video Film Production from Maryount California University in Palos Verdes. I love and have so much fun interacting with children. They have a such a way of looking at the world and I try to always remember seeing the world through their eyes from time to time. My mom spent many years teaching dance and drama at an elementary school which I would help facilitate by watching and playing with the kids. I have babysat since I was 16 mostly between the ages of 5 months to 6 years old. I also was actively working in the nursery at my church since I was 12. Children are amazing and can teach as much as they need to learn. I would really enjoy any opportunity to continue to learn and work with the little one's to help parent's out. Another fun job I have is working as a princess, face painter, and balloon twister. It definitely keeps my imagination sharp which is helpful when it comes to play time with toddlers and elementary age children. My mom was a single parent so I know how hard it can be. If there is any way I can help alleviate some of that pressure I would be glad to offer my services.

Hello! My name is Victoria and I have years of experience in child care. I am a newborn care specialist and a trained postpartum doula. I have worked as a nanny/babysitter for 15+years, and currently am an arts educator in theatre. I direct children’s plays and help manage a performing arts studio. I have experience with children of all ages. I love yoga, the outdoors, coloring, theatre, singing, dancing, vegetables, and ice cream! It would be a pleasure to meet you and your family :)

Hello! My name is Alley, and I'm a recent UCLA graduate with extensive experience in education and with kids. A little more about me: I have several years of experience working with children. Most recently, I've worked at an after-school program as a coordinator, creating curriculum for elementary aged children focused on expression and creativity. I’ve also worked at a daycare center in the Bay Area, where I gained lots of experience with children in all aspects of their daily care. I was directly responsible for infants as young as 4 months old, and children aged 2-12 years old at this center. In both roles I cared for several children at a time—so, I feel well prepared me for just about any babysitting scenario under the sun! I have also done occasional sitting for families in the Los Angeles area. I really love being a small part of a child’s upbringing and seeing them develop into amazing individuals. It’s been super rewarding. I have used UrbanSitter as an avenue to seek out these opportunities, and have worked with some wonderful families as a result! Besides all that, I have experience as a dance teacher at a children’s summer camp in Northern California, and have done language tutoring in both French and English. Also not bad at cooking kids favorites like mac n cheese or PB&Js. Please feel free to reach out if you're interested in having me work with your family! Always happy to chat or provide references.

Hi! My name is Reem, I am currently a freshman in college but love to do babysitting on the side! I have loads of professional experience with kids of all ages. Some of my experience includes assistant soccer coaching, taking child development in high school, interning at a preschool and working as a special education assistant teacher. I also took care of my special needs brother from time to time! I can do pretty much anything you need like light housekeeping, homework, prepping snacks, taking kids outside, etc. I’m patient, understanding, can work in a fast paced environment and overall loving! Sometimes all a kid needs is someone to talk to or for someone to listen to them, which I am always willing to do!
