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

I’m a caring, reliable, and energetic caregiver with experience supporting children of all ages—from newborns to teenagers. I’ve taken care of up to three toddlers at the same time for several days, and I’m very comfortable managing different personalities and needs at once. Coming from a large family full of little ones, I’ve spent years helping raise and care for children in all stages, which has given me patience, confidence, and a natural ability to connect with kids quickly. I have a sweet-hearted and positive nature, and I always make it a priority to create a warm, safe, and joyful environment. I love engaging with children through singing, reading, imaginative play, and outdoor activities that keep them active and entertained. I enjoy being hands-on, present, and involved—never just supervising from the sidelines. Whether it’s helping a toddler explore their creativity, keeping up with energetic kids, or offering calm support to a newborn, I adapt easily to what each child needs. I’m also comfortable helping with cooking and meal prep, and I’m happy to support families with simple household routines that make their day a little easier. One of my favorite parts of caregiving is teaching through fun moments, and I can introduce Spanish naturally into play, songs, and conversation so children learn in a way that feels exciting and easy. Families describe me as dependable, kind, flexible, and someone who truly cares. I bring a great blend of patience, playfulness, and responsibility, and I take pride in creating an environment where children feel valued, supported, and happy. I’m committed to showing up with a great attitude, treating every child as if they were my own family, and making sure parents feel confident and at ease while their little ones are with me. I am open to long-term arrangements with one family and would love to build a consistent relationship where I can support your child’s growth over time. My best availability is all day on weekends and after 4 PM on Wednesdays. I’d love the opportunity to bring my experience, positive energy, and big-hearted care to your family.

Hi there. My name is Lainey! I have 5 years of nannying experience and 8 years of babysitting experience. I have worked with children of all ages, and have been told that I am a great tutor for elementary and middle school aged children. My longest term nannying job was for a family with an ADHD child, so I also have experience with children who need extra attention. I recently left my corporate job to pursue work I’m passionate about, and that has led me back to childcare! Overall, I am a curious, compassionate, sometimes-funny person who enjoys working hard and finding joy everywhere I can. During two days of my week I am in class, but I have open availability in the mornings and most afternoons :) I have a license, a reliable car, zero speeding tickets, basic first aid knowledge, and solid cooking skills. Please reach out to me with any additional questions or requests for references! :)

Hi families! My name is Jasmine, and I’m currently a rising junior at Wellesley College double majoring in Education and Psychology. I have always loved working with children because I understand how important it is for them to have someone who is patient, supportive, and trustworthy in their lives. I also understand that choosing someone to care for your child is a big decision, and I never take that trust lightly. My goal is to create an environment where children feel safe, comfortable, and encouraged to be themselves. My experience caring for children has grown naturally through my family and the relationships I have built with the children I have cared for. As an older sister, I have always helped support and look after my siblings, which taught me responsibility, patience, and the importance of being attentive to each child’s individual needs. I have also had the opportunity to care for my younger cousin from infancy through his toddler years, and watching him grow has taught me so much about the importance of patience, consistency, and creating a nurturing environment. While attending Wellesley, I have also gained babysitting experience in Boston, where I have enjoyed getting to know families and helping create a safe and positive space for their children. I have experience connecting with children at different ages and stages, and I love being someone they can feel comfortable with, whether that means helping with routines, playing, learning, or simply being there to support them. I would describe myself as dependable, caring, patient, and responsible. I enjoy creating activities that allow children to explore and have fun, such as reading, music, dancing, creative activities, outdoor walks, and helping with homework. My background in Education and Psychology has also helped me better understand children’s development, emotions, and the importance of making them feel valued and heard. I also have a SafeChokeSaver certification, which has strengthened my knowledge of child safety and preparedness. I would love the opportunity to support your family and provide a caring, safe, and positive environment where your child feels happy, supported, and able to be themselves.

Hi, my name is Vanessa, and I look forward to meeting you! I recently graduated from UCLA and currently work part-time on weekends. I am interested in providing baby and childcare services, as well as occasional pet care. I have been babysitting since my teenage years. My knowledge of baby care is still fresh, especially since my baby niece is turning two. While it may seem easy, having an extra hand is always helpful. I possess a driver's license and own a car, which has allowed me to commute from residential areas to highways. I am comfortable with pickups and drop-offs, and I'm also okay with running quick, easy errands. NOTE: I am also open to pet and house-sitting
