Find infant babysitters in Ladera Ranch, CA

Hello! My name is Katie, I currently work as an early education tutor at Kumon in Aliso Viejo and have been an Art Instructor in Laguna Beach for the past three years, helping kids explore their creativity and build confidence. I’ve also worked in church nurseries since I was 12, where I’ve gained valuable experience caring for young children. Additionally, I’ve spent a lot of time caring for my younger brother, who is 9 years younger than me, ever since he was a baby. These experiences have taught me patience, creativity, and a love for working with kids! When I’m not working or studying, I enjoy spending my free time painting, going to the beach, and playing with my dog! I’d love to bring my care to your family!

Hi! My name is Melodie, and I bring a warm, reliable, and well-rounded approach to caregiving. I’ve been babysitting off and on since high school, and over the years, I’ve had the privilege of working with families in a wide range of settings—from casual date nights to consistent weekly care. Between 2021 and 2023, I provided regular childcare for a college head coach’s family, where I was trusted to handle everything from after-school routines and bedtime to meal prep and light tidying. More recently, I’ve been working with a wonderful family caring for two young siblings. I’ve also taken formal child development courses and hold an active CPR and First Aid certification. Your child’s safety and emotional well-being are my top priorities, and I pride myself on creating a calm, fun, and structured environment. Whether it’s imaginative play, helping with schoolwork, or reinforcing routines, I aim to support not just the kids but the whole family. In addition to childcare, I’m also experienced in household support. I’ve run my own household and have been employed to help organize others’, so I naturally maintain a clean and tidy space. I enjoy cooking and can prepare simple, healthy meals for children and families as needed. I’m also a huge animal lover and have grown up around pets my whole life. I currently have two of my own and am confident in handling pet care alongside childcare—including walks, feeding, and lots of love. Transportation is never a problem. I have a perfect driving record and a safe, well-maintained vehicle. I understand how important punctuality and reliability are when it comes to caregiving, and I always strive to go above and beyond. Whether you need dependable babysitting, pet care, help keeping your household running smoothly—or all three—I’d love to be a part of your support system. I genuinely care about the families I work with and value building lasting, respectful relationships. Looking forward to connecting!

I’m a responsible, hard-working nanny with experience caring for kids ages 1-12. I babysat a 3-year-old girl, and helped care for my niece from infancy through age 4. I've also led a group of 9-year-old girls as a camp counselor, and taught evening Russian classes to 11-12-year-olds (boys and girls) at my church for several years. I'm patient, especially with kids, and I connect with them easily, making them feel safe, seen, and heard. A bit about me: I'm getting married next May, and I currently work two part-time jobs (office admin and massage therapy). I'm looking to step away from massage therapy for good and focus on nanny work going forward. I'm looking for a stable Monday-Friday schedule, ideally 2:30-6:30 p.m. (flexible to 7pm), around 20 hours/week.

Hi! I’m Mica, originally from Brazil, and I have about five years of childcare experience as a babysitter and teacher. I’ve worked with children of different ages, including infants, toddlers, and school-aged kids. I’m currently an Au Pair in California and have been part of the program for a year and a half. I’ve always had a passion for caring for children and genuinely love being part of their growth and development. My approach is creative, fun, and nurturing. I naturally connect with children and find it easy to build trust and make them feel comfortable around me. Over the years, I’ve learned how to handle different personalities, behaviors, and situations, and I feel confident adapting to each child’s needs, whether it’s keeping them entertained, helping them calm down, or making sure they always feel safe and cared for. My experience includes preparing meals, school drop-offs and pick-ups, helping with homework, organizing activities, arts and crafts, and managing daily routines. I’m also CPR and First Aid/BLS certified through the American Heart Association. I’m responsible, patient, caring, and have strong communication and organizational skills. I love cooking and enjoy preparing healthy meals and snacks. I speak Portuguese and English, as well as a little Spanish. I have a valid driver’s license and am comfortable with pets. I would love to bring my experience, positive energy, and dedication to a wonderful family!
