Also, as much as you need me I am there and I'm happy to be there for your kids and you. I love to cook from Breakfast, lunch, and dinner and I love to bake too.

Dear Parents, my name is Sabrina. I've always had a passion for working with children. I started babysitting at 18 years old, so that's over 10+ years now, was a nanny for 2 years, and an assistant teacher at a daycare. I now work at a non profit organization for children. I believe we really shape children's lives, so I would wish to make a difference in at least one child's life. With me, your children will have fun, playing, and learning in a safe and comfortable environment. I enjoy taking children to the zoo, park, movies, and museums. I also enjoy coloring, reading, writing or drawing with children. I am responsible, dependable, and fun. I have 2 years of paid experience as a nanny with elementary aged children (2 girls). My experience includes preparing meals, transporting child to and from home/activities/school and cleaning up after. I also have 10 years of babysitting experience, mostly for date nights or different occasions. I have experience changing diapers, bottle feeding, and putting babies to sleep. I'm honest, clean, organized, loving and respectful. I only ask for the opportunity to get to know me and put me to the test and you can compare my ability.

“Sabrina is friendly, warm and punctual. My daughter had a blast with her! ”

Booked by 3 families in Huntington Park, CA

Hi, I’m Izzy! I recently moved to LA from Northern California, where I was born and raised. I’m an actor who loves working with kids and bringing creativity, patience, and care into everything I do. I graduated from UC Berkeley in Spring 2024 with a degree in Theater and Performance Studies and a minor in Dance, which really shows up in how I connect with kids through movement, imagination, and play. Over the years, I’ve worked with numerous families, caring for children of all ages—from newborns to teenagers. I also spent several summers working at my former preschool during high school, which gave me early hands-on experience in a nurturing and structured environment. I’ve often helped with pet care too, including walking dogs, feeding pets, and keeping them happy and safe while families are out or busy. I have a background check, I’m CPR certified, and I’m currently in the process of getting my substitute teaching license. I genuinely love spending time with kids. Whether we’re dancing, dressing up, coloring, reading stories, going on walks, running errands, or just using our imaginations—I always aim to make our time together fun and meaningful. I’m also great at helping with schoolwork and love creating a calm, safe space where kids feel encouraged to be themselves. I can’t wait to get to know your family and spend time with your amazing kid(s)!

“Izzy is both professional and super fun with our kids. She is communicative, energetic and fun-loving. We feel very lucky that she is working with our family. She bonded with our kids quickly and they are excited to see her. And she is respectful of our way of being. Izzy is a gem. ”

Hello everyone reading this! About me: I have been babysitting since I was 15 years old and absolutely love children! Whether it was for the neighbors next door, at the church nursery or for some of my high school teachers, I grew up watching kids! Although I'm more familiar with children from infancy to 6 years of age, I don't shy away from kids who are older. I am a very upbeat and outgoing person so I'm always getting down on the floor and playing with children and helping them expand their imagination! If you have any questions or want to know anything else about my experience, please don't hesitate to ask! :)

“Kaci was wonderful! She arrived on time and was personable and professional. My kid had a hard time when we left but she stayed calm and sent a picture of him happily playing after we left. It’s intimidating hiring someone you’ve never met before to watch your beloved child. I’m happy to endorse Kaci for any caregiving responsibility and I look forward to working with her again! Thank yoj for everything, Kaci.”
