Thaliyah Van Nuys
$30 per hour for 1 child

Hello, I am Thaliyah! I hold a background in working with children, years of responsibility as the oldest sibling in my family, and hands-on experience caring for both homes and pets. As a professional dance instructor, I’ve worked closely with children ages 4 and up, helping them grow not only in their technique but also in confidence, creativity, and discipline. I provide genuine care, can cook meals, provide transportation services and maintain a kept household. In addition to my work with children, families often rely on me for extended stays, knowing their homes, routines, and furry family members will be treated with the same attention and love I’d give my own. Whether it’s keeping up with feeding schedules, administering light medication, or simply offering companionship, I take pride in creating a peaceful and safe environment while families are away. I would love the opportunity to speak further and learn more about how I can support your family’s needs. Thank you for your time and consideration—I look forward to connecting soon.

Booked by 1 family in Woodland Hills, CA

I have years of experience babysitting kids, from babies through 12 years old, and I raised two puppies until their old age, so I’m comfortable with dogs. I feel my greatest strengths are love for children, being trustworthy, reliable, and safety-minded, which includes CPR training. I can also do overnight babysitting or housesitting.

Xenia Northridge
$22 per hour for 1 child

My name is Xenia. I believe in catering to a child's emotional and intellectual needs. I believe in explaining the reason for things versus telling a child "No". Instead, I will tell a child, "That's not something we put in our mouth because it's not food. We only put food and medicine in our mouth." In that way, the child is able to make the connection in its brain in a healthy and productive manner instead of bringing fear and rejection to the child. I love cats and dogs. I am open to babysit children, your fur babies, and perform light domestic work.
