Find infant babysitters in Altadena, CA

Hey Families! Are you in need of a nurturing, fun and loving caregiver? Look no more! My name is Marisol, a 29 year old nature, sports, arts & crafts, and plant enthusiast who is the oldest of 20 grandchildren. Being the oldest of 20 grandchildren, has not only allowed me to have a love for caring for children but has allowed me to understand the importance in having a memorable time as a child, unconditionally cared for, and guided to becoming their most loved self. I have assisted with four different families for one to three years each as well. I am looking for the opportunity to help a new set of parents with the care of their children. Date nights, daily help or emergencies, do not hesitate to reach out! If you have any pets that’s no problem! I am a mama bear of a few pets myself and at the end of the day they are apart of the family! Looking forward to chatting soon about any potential arrangements!

Hi! My name is Brenda. I absolutely love working with children and creating supportive, engaging, and meaningful experiences for them. I’ve been babysitting since I was 12 years old and have had the joy of caring for some of the same children all the way through their high school years. Building real relationships with families and watching kids grow has been one of the most rewarding parts of my journey. I currently babysit for a wonderful family of three children ages 6, 9, and 12, where I support with dinner, evening routines like reading together, and fun outdoor adventures including hiking and exploring nature. I also occasionally take two girls on cultural and educational excursions around the city, helping them learn through experiences, curiosity, and discovery. I hold a degree in World Arts and Cultures from UCLA, which allows me to bring creativity, storytelling, movement, and arts activities into the time I spend with kids. I value imagination, kindness, learning, and creating an uplifting environment where kids feel safe and supported. For families with teens, I’m also happy to support with college preparation, including guidance on admissions written statements and helping students express their stories and strengths confidently as my professional training centers around supporting students. I’m reliable, patient, nurturing, and genuinely enjoy being part of a child’s world. I would love to support your family, too!

I come from a strong caregiving and service-oriented background, and I naturally step into nurturing, responsible roles. I have experience caring for children of various ages through babysitting and nannying for friends, family, and private households. This includes preparing meals, helping with homework, creating engaging activities, maintaining routines, and ensuring a safe, positive environment. In addition to childcare, I’ve also supported seniors by assisting with daily tasks, companionship, organization, errands, and light household duties. I understand the importance of patience, clear communication, and emotional awareness when caring for others, and I take pride in being dependable and attentive. I’m also a longtime pet owner and animal lover, with hands-on experience caring for cats and dogs. I’m comfortable with feeding schedules, administering basic care, maintaining cleanliness, and making sure pets feel safe and loved while their owners are away. I’m calm, patient, observant, and highly responsible. I’m someone families trust quickly because I’m reliable, organized, and emotionally intuitive. I’m very attentive to routines, boundaries, and instructions, while still being warm, playful, and engaging. I’m great at reading a child’s needs whether they need structure, encouragement, or creative play and I adapt easily to different family dynamics. Beyond direct caregiving, I’m very comfortable with household services such as light cleaning, laundry, organizing, meal prep, errands, and maintaining an orderly home. I’m proactive and detail-oriented, so I don’t wait to be told what needs to be done I step in where help is needed. Overall, I bring a combination of trustworthiness, emotional intelligence, and genuine care. I treat every home and family with respect and always aim to make life easier, calmer, and more supported for both parents and children.

Hello, and thank you for connecting. My name is Catherine, and I am a Los Angeles Native. I have my Master's degree in Educational Counseling and my B.S. in Rehabilitation Counseling. I have functioned as a professional advocate for 30 years. I have had the privilege of serving individuals with intellectual disabilities and their families throughout Southern California. My experience working with children began in parks and recreation, and lastly as a school counselor in the public school system. Throughout the years, I have been around children with and without developmental barriers to learning and physical challenges. I enjoy being around young-hearted people as they learn about life and themselves. Serving adults with various abilities to be as independent as possible is fantastic because, just like me, everyone wants to be the king/queen of their castle. I appreciate life and all that it offers, learning and being active on my bicycle, walking, playing catch with another, and going to the library are how I enjoy my precious time. I am here to be of service. Please feel free to contact me with any specific questions to help me best meet your child's and or adult care needs. Current Virtus (Protecting God's Children). C.E.R.T.
