I’m a 30-year old babysitter/nanny looking for new families to work with in the LA area. Over the last 10 years I have worked as a childcare provider in different capacities: babysitter, after-school nanny, elementary school tutor, pre-k daycare assistant, camp counselor, etc. Happy to provide references and/or put you directly in touch with my past families to hear about their experience.

“Sad that she moved to NY and is no longer available in LA. She was great. Very full of energy and kept up with our child's energy. We wish you the best of luck.”

Babysitter with 10+ years of childcare experience and a parent myself, so I truly understand the needs of both children and parents. I hold a BA in Psychology, I am fully vaccinated, and certified in adult and pediatric First Aid/CPR. I’m passionate about creating a safe, fun, and nurturing environment for children of all ages. I’m available for occasional job opportunities and would love the chance to support your family’s needs. I’m also comfortable around pets. 🐶

Hi – My name is Chisa and I’m from Japan. I am offering child care, senior care, dog sitting and household services. Although I don’t have formal nanny experience, I was a nurse in Japan for 15 years. At my previous employment in Japan, I worked in the emergency room for three years and was a pediatrics nurse 2-3 times/month. I did triage for kids, checking the temprature/breaths, and helped docter's phlebotomy, making sure kids were getting nebulizers. Basically, I love kids, they make me smile! Adittionally, I am a Certified Clinical Medical Assistant (CCMA) in California with BSL certificate. I love interacting with infants and children, and I have extensive experience working with seniors. I’m a dog lover and happy to work with families with dogs! Cats are welcome too!

“My girls immediately liked Chisa and didn't want her to leave. She fit right in with our family and we are looking forward to working with her on a regular basis. She is friendly, kind, asks important questions, and is great with the kids. My dog also loved getting extra pets!”
