Hi, I’m Wendy! I’m a dedicated babysitter with over 10 years of experience caring for children of all ages, including those with ADHD and Autism. I have a strong understanding of RIE teaching methods, which help foster independence, confidence, and a nurturing environment for children to thrive. Originally from Los Angeles, I went to school for Business but my true passion has always been working with kids. I love incorporating outdoor activities, art, and cooking into my babysitting style to create engaging and fun experiences. My goal is to provide a safe, supportive, and enriching environment for every child I care for. I’m also a big dog lover, so pets are always a welcome part of the experience! I’d love to connect with your family—feel free to reach out with any questions!

I love having an active lifestyle. I’ve been babysitting for the past sixteen years. When I’m not babysitting, I teach children from 4-18 years old how to play golf. I love to complete puzzles, play outside, and play with toys. When it comes to deciding one over the other, I would much rather read to your children than have them stare at a television screen. I believe children learn better when they are less reliant on technology for entertainment.

“Ih she's wonderful! Good energy, on time, great communication. My kid just laughed and laughed! She plays well with the kids. So glad to have found her.”

Hello, my name is Crystal. I’m 31 years old and earned my B.A. in Child Development and Family Studies from CSULB in 2018. I recently received my Multiple Subject Teaching Credential and am excited to continue growing in the field of education. I have always had a passion for working with children and began babysitting at 15 years old, caring for my younger sibling and cousins. Throughout high school, I volunteered in after-school programs where I worked with elementary-aged children, helping them complete homework and build strong study skills. After graduating, I worked as a program leader, managing a class of about 20 children. My responsibilities included planning engaging activities, ensuring safety, serving snacks, collaborating with families and staff, and creating a fun, nurturing, and structured environment. I also have experience as an elementary tutor and a full-time preschool teacher, where I built strong relationships with families and provided additional babysitting support when needed. During COVID, I worked as a full-time nanny for multiple families until 2023. Since January 2023, I have been working as a substitute teacher while continuing my education. I would describe myself as nurturing, kind, patient, and dependable. I truly enjoy being part of a child’s growth, helping them learn, supporting their needs, and creating a safe, positive, and fun environment. I am currently available for summer babysitting from June through mid-August and am open to part-time or full-time opportunities during that time. I would love the opportunity to support your family and provide attentive, caring, and enriching care for your children!

“Great interaction with the kids with keeping them occupied, creative and engaged.”

Hi my name is Marlem, I look forward meeting you and working for your family, but most of all helping out when times are needed. Also, as much as you need me I am there and I'm happy to be there for your kids and you. I love to cook from Breakfast, lunch, and dinner and I love to bake too. I like to interact with your kids from their sports, school activities, homework, anything that entertains them and its educational. I like to make or prep your kids meal(s) that's left for dinner time, once they are ready or meanwhile they are doing homework. I know and understand when you need help and you don't have help. Because my mom was a nanny for a very long time and I grew up watching her. Seeing her be a nanny was a good experience for me and now that I'm grown I would like to give back just like my mom did, I understand why my mom did it now and I love her for it. I have my own reliable car and am comfortable with drop offs and pick-ups, available for all job(s) around the Los Angeles area & Orange County area too. I've worked with family's located up to 25-36 miles from me. I am responsible, reliable and puntual for all my families regardless the distance. I responded back with a text message in 25 seconds of my booking. Also, I'm confident to watch your newborns and toddlers, and middle-schoolers and quickly to abducting to the schedule for your baby. For example for infants, feeding and making bottles, burping, rocking, and changing diaper before and after bottle and nap time, changing clothes if needed. ***I'm CPR and First Aid certified and can provide my card at all times*** ***I am Postpartum dual, Ready to be there for you and your family.*** Note hourly rate are different *** *** Any requests to work on holidays hourly rate will be double *** *** I'm taking COVID very seriously and following CDC guidelines & requirements to stay safe*** **Note; If shift(s) or set schedule ends earlier at parents request, compensation will be for the regular set hours & schedule and paid in full.** I look forward hearing from you soon and working with you.

"We were incredibly grateful that Maya was able to help us out with a last-minute childcare emergency. She matched our 9-year-old's energy with arts & crafts, some quiet reading, and a walk around the neighborhood. We'd have Maya back in a heartbeat!"
