Hi, I’m Kaylee! I would love to be your fun and nurturing babysitter. Some of my favorite things are cats, dancing, acting, baking, and reading. My first professional experience in childcare was as a daycare caregiver for three years, helping create a safe environment for babies to school aged children. From there I transitioned to private nannying for two wonderful children. We spent our days adventuring outside, making arts and crafts, having dance parties, and playing make believe. I had the privilege of many Los Angeles families entrusting me to care for their little ones. I am now offering my services as an occasional and part time babysitter for date nights, school pickups, backup care, or just when you’re needing a little break! 🔤 Native English speaker ⛑️ First aid and CPR certificatied (baby, child, and adult) 🚙 Valid drivers license and safe vehicle ✅ Clean background check through Urbansitter ✍️ Five star reviews on Urbansitter ☺️ Patience and empathy - practicing gentle parenting 🍼 Eight years of childcare experience ages newborn to high school 🖍️ Activity and craft planning 📚 Homework help 🛝 Active play and exercise 🍽️ Meal and snack preparation 🐈‍⬛ Pet friendly 💉 Fully vaccinated 🤟 Novice ASL - I know basic signs and practice new ones everyday!

Hi! I'm Abra. I have experience as a nanny, resort children's program director, and instructor for maritime/marine biology camps. I have experience as a private chef during covid as well as private deckhand/stew. I enjoy cooking. I loved having the opportunity to be a stay at home mom for many years to my daughter, who is now 19, and in college. I currently work part time as a marine surveyor on container ships and oil tankers. In my free time I love to go tidepooling, and I have a native wildflower project I've been working on by myself for several years in Laurel Canyon. I can make an art, craft or science project out of just about anything. I have a ton of silly songs I know by heart, and still love to play. I also have experience with volunteer hospice care and limited mobility care.

Hello! I am Los Angeles based, working part time in advertising and looking for a regular part time or occasional childcare position, ideally 10-15 hours a week. I am one of six kids and began working with children at the age of 13. I'm now in my thirties, with many years of nannying behind me. I have taken care of children of all ages and stages of childhood. I have been certified in CPR in the past, and would be willing to update that certification if needed. I am fun, present, and engaging with children. I believe in the importance of enjoying nature, and will often take children on hikes or other outdoor excursions. As a former ballet dancer, I have taught children's dance classes and encourage creative expression in whichever form it might appear. In prior nanny positions I've offered tutoring/homework help with elementary and high school courses. I'm happy to cook, have no problem dropping off/picking up at school, and do have my own vehicle if any transportation is needed. I am also willing to do light house cleaning. I encourage creativity and growth with the children and allow for a fun and safe environment to learn and play, while being sensitive to each little one's individual needs. Thank you for your interest and I look forward to getting to know you and your family!

“Fantastic, highly recommend. Punctual, communicative, and attentive!”
