Find an emergency babysitter in Panorama City, CA

Unavailable for full-time nanny positions Hi! I’m a dependable, warm, and experienced caregiver with over 15 years of childcare experience and 67 repeat families since joining this platform in 2016. I work full-time as an HR Generalist in Los Angeles during the week and provide babysitting support for families seeking consistent, reliable care from someone they can truly trust. As the second oldest of seven siblings, caring for children has always been second nature to me. While I have experience with children ranging from 6 weeks through 15 years old, I especially enjoy working with toddlers and preschool-aged children (approximately 1–5 years old). I’m patient, attentive, and nurturing, and I focus on creating a calm, structured, and engaging environment through age-appropriate play, outdoor time, routines, and gentle guidance. Families often describe me as dependable, communicative, and easy to work with. I’m comfortable managing bedtime routines, light meal prep, transitions, and following household preferences to ensure continuity of care. Outside of work, I enjoy volunteering in the community, traveling, hiking, Olympic weightlifting (which emphasizes focus, discipline, and safety), running, and unwinding with a good book. I typically respond to booking requests within a couple of hours during the workweek. I look forward to building long-term relationships with families and being a trusted part of your child’s care team. Important note: At the time of booking, please let me know if your child is currently ill, recovering from an illness, has special needs, diabetes, or requires any specific care considerations. This helps ensure I can provide the best care possible and avoid any last-minute misunderstandings.

Hi! As a babysitter / nanny of 15+ years, I enjoy spending my free time working with children. I am multilingual and have 6+ years experience volunteering as a certified EMT/crew chief/ambulance driver. I am trained for potential medical emergencies and versed in CPR for infants, children, and adults. Throughout middle and high school, I worked at Kumon Math and Reading Center and helped kids, as young as toddlers and as old as teens, improve their reading, writing, and math skills and build their self-confidence in school. I have cared for children as young as a few weeks old to thirteen years old and as such, am well versed across sleep training, swaddling, homework, and more! Kids never fail to amaze me and whether it is their brutal honesty or their insightful comments, caring for them allows me to indulge in what I am best: a kid at heart. Professionally, I work in music helping produce artists in the studio. I look forward to meeting your family! Booking Policy: 3 hour minimum for jobs
