Find a last-minute babysitter in Marina Del Rey, CA

Hello! My name is Carly, and I’m an 18-year-old high school senior graduating in 2026. I’m looking to gain more babysitting experience as I prepare to pursue a nanny career this summer. I’ve been around children my entire life. I come from a big family and helped care for my younger cousins from a young age. I also helped care for my best friend Ned for four years, which taught me responsibility, patience, and attentiveness early on. Growing up in after-school programs further helped me learn how to interact with children of all ages, play fairly, and understand right from wrong. Since age 16, I’ve worked in restaurants, including Shake Shack and currently as a Starbucks barista. These roles strengthened my communication skills, punctuality, honesty, and cleanliness. I interact with children daily and genuinely enjoy helping them. Kids naturally gravitate toward me, and I love supporting families. I’m hardworking, reliable, and ready to adapt to your family’s needs. While I’m not currently CPR/First Aid certified, I have hands-on experience and am happy to get certified if required. Thank you for your time and consideration!

Hi! My name is Susan, and I have over 3 years of childcare experience. I am currently working as a full-time Au Pair in California, caring for young children every day. Most of my experience is with children between 1 and 6 years old. I am a patient, caring, responsible, and organized caregiver who truly enjoys helping children learn, play, and grow in a safe and positive environment. I love planning fun activities, reading stories, doing arts and crafts, playing outdoors, and encouraging creativity while maintaining routines and structure. I can help with meal preparation, light housekeeping related to the children, school or activity drop-offs and pick-ups, bedtime routines, and keeping play areas clean and organized. I am also comfortable with pets and happy to help if needed. Families describe me as calm, dependable, attentive, and easy to communicate with. My goal is to provide children with a safe, loving, and engaging environment while giving parents peace of mind knowing their little ones are in caring and responsible hands.

AVAILABLE FOR BACKUP CARE TRUSTLINE REGISTERED Not too long ago it was a tradition for an extended family member to step in as a caregiver for working parents. Now, there are many families who have moved to a new city for a career without a family member nearby. I specialize in taking loving care of children in my role as caregiver. I strive to prepare healthy kid-friendly meals and snacks for children. And I make use of other sites to find activities for little learners. I can keep your child engaged with reading books aloud and other fun and educational activities. I am very resourceful and patient with a sense of humor! For the past couple of years, I have worked as a nanny in share, and with one child alone. Those parents are very willing to be a reference for me. And I had a very successful run in Washington DC with many families from the region. Maybe I have cared for your family or friends in DC; I have more than 400 bookings there. I really look forward to working with your family!
