Booked by 4 families in Westlake Village, CA

Hi! My name is Amanda and I am a college student at CSUN. I am 21 years old and I began babysitting at 13 years old. I strive for long-term connections with the families I help and I am CPR and first-aid certified by The Red Cross. I have been a youth club volleyball coach for 3 seasons now so I feel I have great experience with kids and teens with different personalities. I am friendly and energetic and get along well with all ages! Experience: 2 months-15 years

Amanda is awesome! She jumped right in with the kids and they loved `her! And Amanda cleaned up after the kids went to bed! Definitely reaching out to her again!

Hi there! I'm studying psychology at UC Berkeley but am currently taking some time off. My experience in childcare comes from five years of working alongside my mom, who owns an at-home daycare, helping to look after both infants and toddlers throughout the workday. I adore working with kids and have been blessed to have been able to help care for such wonderful children for the past few years.

Booked by 1 family in Westlake Village, CA

Hello! My name is Amaris. I’m a 19-year-old college student who is First Aid, CPR, and AED certified for infants, children, and adults. I have years of hands-on experience caring for kids of all ages and truly love what I do. I currently work at an elementary school, where I help care for a group of about 20–23 children ages 5–7 alongside another staff member. In this role, I’ve learned how to manage and connect with many children at once, adapting to different personalities and learning styles. I enjoy keeping them engaged through play, learning activities, and positive interactions that help them grow and feel supported. My childcare experience started at age 13, helping care for my younger cousins. Since then, I’ve looked after children from infancy up to around age 12, handling everything from diaper changes and meals to bedtime routines and playtime. I also love helping kids learn through everyday moments — whether it’s reading, practicing letters and numbers, or encouraging creativity and curiosity. Beyond babysitting, I’ve helped at children’s parties, keeping kids safe and entertained, and I always make sure every child feels comfortable and cared for. Families describe me as patient, responsible, and dependable — and I take pride in leaving a positive impression everywhere I go. If you’re looking for someone experienced, caring, and reliable, I’d love the chance to support your family!

Booked by 6 families in Westlake Village, CA

My name is Angie, and I’m a 24-year-old with over 7 years of babysitting experience. I currently work at a private Christian school in the valley, where I’ve had the privilege of caring for and teaching children of all ages. I absolutely love being a helping hand to parents, especially when it comes to giving them a chance for a much-needed date night! I understand how important it is to have those moments to reconnect. I’m also recently married and excited to start working with new families. I look forward to providing safe, fun, and caring support for your little ones while you enjoy some time for yourself!

My family is so glad we found Angelica! She is dependable and punctual. Her energy is positive and fun, and she is patient, sweet and overall great with kids.
