Find an emergency babysitter in Sun Valley, CA

Hi parents! A little about me: I'm an independent visual artist, musician, and dancer, and I like to write, read, study languages, spend time with animals, and travel. I graduated with a BA from University of San Francisco in 2014, as a Media Studies major with Spanish and Gender Studies minors. I am vaccinated for COVID-19 and promptly receive booster vaccinations. I have tons of experience with kids! I have used UrbanSitter since 2012, and have had the opportunity to work with kids of all ages - particularly infants as young as 3 months, toddlers, and 3-to-5-year olds. I’m great with older kids as well - in the past I have also coached cheerleading to ages 6-14, worked as a lifeguard and swimming instructor for children aged 6 months to 13 years, tutored middle school-aged kids in a variety of subjects, and worked in a candy store swarming with little ones. So I am comfortable and confident in babysitting for all ages! I am also CPR, First Aid, and Lifeguard certified. I am well-versed in composting/recycling and other environmental concerns, and am happy to teach children about eco-friendly practices. And most importantly - I love being around kids (and animals)! My favorite activities to do with kids are that of the artistic and adventurous variety...I am happy to spend an afternoon watercolor painting, exploring a new park, making crafts, baking vegan cookies, or navigating a museum. The more engaging the better - if it's a nice day I'd rather be outside taking a walk or traipsing on the beach! I am dedicated to nurturing your child's curiosity, creative-thinking, and adventurous spirit - as these are qualities in myself that I am happy to have harnessed at a young age. I am looking forward to hearing from you! Please contact me with any questions you may have!

AVAILABLE FOR BACKUP CARE TRUSTLINE REGISTERED Not too long ago it was a tradition for an extended family member to step in as a caregiver for working parents. Now, there are many families who have moved to a new city for a career without a family member nearby. I specialize in taking loving care of children in my role as caregiver. I strive to prepare healthy kid-friendly meals and snacks for children. And I make use of other sites to find activities for little learners. I can keep your child engaged with reading books aloud and other fun and educational activities. I am very resourceful and patient with a sense of humor! For the past couple of years, I have worked as a nanny in share, and with one child alone. Those parents are very willing to be a reference for me. And I had a very successful run in Washington DC with many families from the region. Maybe I have cared for your family or friends in DC; I have more than 400 bookings there. I really look forward to working with your family!

Hello parents! My expertise ranges from newborns, to school aged children, and occasionally preteens. I know how to change diapers and make bottles to prepare healthy snacks and play while learning. From my experiences with children, it seems to me that children tend to easily bond with me as I am fun while providing a sense of trust and security. Family life is my passion as my own family means a lot to me. *I would gladly appreciate if you send me message first describing your needs. I can accept the job without a phone interview should we exchange messages with all the details. Ps.s. Last minute cancelations made within 6 hours of the start time would require payment for three hours of my time.

Hi! My name is Miesha, and I have over 10 years of experience caring for children of all ages, from newborns to teens. I truly enjoy working with children and getting to know each child’s personality, interests, and routine. Over the years, I’ve worked with many different families, and one thing I’ve learned is that every child and every household is different. I’m available for date nights, occasional care, overnight care, hotel and travel care, amusement park care, special events, and families who may need care outside of a traditional schedule. I’m also comfortable caring for multiple children at once. I’m CPR, First Aid, and AED certified for infants, children, and adults, as well as TrustLine registered. Safety is very important to me, and I want parents to be able to leave knowing their children are in good hands. When I’m caring for children, I like to actually interact with them rather than just supervise. Depending on their age and interests, that might mean playing games, going outside, doing arts and crafts, reading, baking, watching a movie together, helping with homework, or simply listening while they tell me about all the things they’re currently excited about. 😊 I’m also happy to help with meals, bedtime routines, and keeping things tidy while the children are in my care. I have a Bachelor’s degree in Hospitality & Tourism Management with a minor in Business Administration from San Francisco State University. My professional background also includes working in childcare staffing, where I’ve trained nannies and helped match caregivers with families based on their individual childcare needs. I know inviting someone into your home and trusting them with your children is a big deal. I’m respectful of each family’s routines, household rules, parenting preferences, and expectations. I’m dependable, communicative, and flexible, and I always want both the parents and children I work with to feel comfortable with me. In my free time, I enjoy cooking and baking, sports, traveling, spending time outdoors, going to amusement parks, and exploring new places. Whether you need a sitter for a date night, work, an event, vacation, hotel stay, overnight care, or just some time to yourself, I’d love to connect and see if I’m a good fit for your family!
