As a childcare provider, my passion lies in fostering children's growth and development. With three years of experience, I'm skilled at nurturing the well-being of children aged 0 to 3. My patient and creative nature allows me to connect with children, encouraging their imagination and curiosity. I prioritize open communication with parents, providing regular updates on their child's day and addressing any concerns. I'm comfortable enforcing household rules to ensure a safe and structured environment. Beyond childcare, I can assist with cooking, meal preparation, and light housekeeping. My CPR training and coursework in early child development further enhance my ability to provide a nurturing environment for your child. My commitment to supporting families and making a positive impact on children's lives drives me to be the best caregiver for your family.

Homa, has been an absolute gem for our child. From the very first day, she has shown exceptional care and dedication. She has a natural ability to connect with kids, making them feel comfortable and entertained. She is incredibly reliable and punctual. We never had to worry about her arrival time, and she always kept us informed about any changes in her schedule. Her communication skills are excellent, and she is always available to provide updates on how the day went with our child. One of the things we appreciate the most is her creativity and enthusiasm in engaging our child in various activities. She comes up with fun and educational games that keep our child entertained and help with their development. Our child has learned so much and had so much fun under her care. Moreover, she is very responsible and attentive to our child's needs. She ensures that our child follows their routines, eats healthy meals, and gets enough rest. In addition to her outstanding caregiving skills, she is also a trustworthy person. We feel completely at ease leaving our child in her care, knowing that they are in safe and capable hands. Overall, I highly recommend her as a babysitter. She has been a fantastic addition to our family, and we are incredibly grateful for her dedication and hard work. If you are looking for a reliable, caring, and engaging babysitter, she is the perfect choice.

Emily 2 reviews
$20 per hour for 1 child

Hello! Caring for children and babies is what I do best. As a natural empath and caregiver, I feel it's a skill that just kind of exists for me organically. I think children deserve to be seen and heard, and their feelings matter. I love to have fun and be silly, but am also very calm. I've had parents describe me as their child's "first friend" (let me grab a tissue), which I think is a lovely and fulfilling role to have.

I chose “other” because my answer is “all of the above”! I’ve known Emily for many years and we’ve worked together, we’re friends, she’s helped me with my kids, all of it! She is amazing with kids and though we are not related, she will always be “Auntie” to my kids. She’s very gentle and kind, but knows when to tell kids no. She’s really patient and understanding with kids and the different emotions they go through. She is very neat and always on time and I would recommend her to any family who needed help with their child care needs!

Booked by 3 families in Aliso Viejo, CA

I am a Pre-school teacher with over 10yrs experience and have worked with all ages including pre-teens. I have over 33 units of early childhood education and have taught in different settings including Montessori, IB ( international Baccalaureate) and also learning through play curriculum. I have also been a nanny and sitter over the years ranging from infants to teens. My philosophy is helping the children feel safe and happy to express them selves through curiosity. I love what I do and enjoy being with children and have fun with them as they learn about the world around them. I also tutor the little ones, light house keeping and meal prep is not a problem. I can work over the holidays as well and one family commitment with a reasonable rate adjustment. Looking forward to hearing from you!

We felt so comfortable having Mrs Dalilah spend all day with our toddler. She is an incredibly warm & engaging person who is a natural with children. Our toddler who is normally shy with new people loved her. We are so thrilled to have her on our short list of date night sitters!

Hi! My name is Melodie, and I bring a warm, reliable, and well-rounded approach to caregiving. I’ve been babysitting off and on since high school, and over the years, I’ve had the privilege of working with families in a wide range of settings—from casual date nights to consistent weekly care. Between 2021 and 2023, I provided regular childcare for a college head coach’s family, where I was trusted to handle everything from after-school routines and bedtime to meal prep and light tidying. More recently, I’ve been working with a wonderful family caring for two young siblings. I’ve also taken formal child development courses and hold an active CPR and First Aid certification. Your child’s safety and emotional well-being are my top priorities, and I pride myself on creating a calm, fun, and structured environment. Whether it’s imaginative play, helping with schoolwork, or reinforcing routines, I aim to support not just the kids but the whole family. In addition to childcare, I’m also experienced in household support. I’ve run my own household and have been employed to help organize others’, so I naturally maintain a clean and tidy space. I enjoy cooking and can prepare simple, healthy meals for children and families as needed. I’m also a huge animal lover and have grown up around pets my whole life. I currently have two of my own and am confident in handling pet care alongside childcare—including walks, feeding, and lots of love. Transportation is never a problem. I have a perfect driving record and a safe, well-maintained vehicle. I understand how important punctuality and reliability are when it comes to caregiving, and I always strive to go above and beyond. Whether you need dependable babysitting, pet care, help keeping your household running smoothly—or all three—I’d love to be a part of your support system. I genuinely care about the families I work with and value building lasting, respectful relationships. Looking forward to connecting!

Great sitter. Punctual, professional and sweet with our children! She even made them dinner and cleaned up the kitchen afterwards! We will definitely book her again!
