Find a last-minute babysitter in Newhall, CA

Hi, I’m Lauren. I’m a Los Angeles–based childcare provider currently studying at the LA Film School, offering attentive, l care for children and families. I have been working with children since I was 15 and bring extensive experience with newborns, infants, toddlers, and school-aged children. I spent three summers as a camp counselor, where I was responsible for large groups of young children, including up to 30 three-year-olds at once. In that role, I led structured programming such as educational music, dance, and beginner swim instruction, while also supporting children with a range of needs, including those on the autism spectrum. This background has made me highly adaptable, calm under pressure, and deeply attentive to each child’s individual personality and needs. I am comfortable managing daily routines, coordinating school drop-offs and pick-ups, and maintaining a well-structured, organized environment. I drive a Honda Pilot and can provide safe, reliable transportation when needed. Alongside childcare, I have experience in education as a Teacher’s Assistant for Film Production at Santa Barbara City College, where I supported and mentored students in a structured academic setting. I bring a creative, thoughtful approach to my work and especially enjoy fostering imagination, confidence, and curiosity through hands-on, screen-free activities. I am reliable and highly respectful of the home environment. I understand the level of trust required in this role and prioritize safety, consistency, and clear communication at all times. My goal is to provide a calm, engaging, and supportive presence that families can fully rely on.

Hi! I am an LA transplant from the Washington, DC area. I have years of experience working with children of busy corporate and government employees during the summers when school is out. I'm a big kid myself--I love video games and outdoor activities! I am a former cheerleader and gymnast and love playing sports with little ones. One of my first jobs was at a sports complex where I taught children from 18 months-5 years old motor skills playing soccer! Working with children is a joy for me. I also have lots of experience with cats, bigger dogs, and turtles! (Fun fact: I grew up with a turtle that is now 25 years old) I am open to the opportunity to care for alternative pets as well.

** DUE TO A WRIST PROBLEM, I AM ONLY WORKING WITH CHILDREN AGES 4 AND UP** Hello! My name is Monique, and I was a stay-at-home mom of two (now grown) children. After my kids grew up, and I thought about going to work, I couldn't think of anything I'd enjoy more (or am better at) than caring for children! I have lots of experience entertaining children with vastly different temperaments and energy levels. I love children of all ages- including the ones that are old enough to think they're smarter than you! I genuinely find all kids interesting and enjoy talking with them and exploring their interests. I love being silly and kids like me - seriously, they really do! I'll be down on the floor, in the grass, whatever it takes, to interact with and to engage your child. (Obviously, older children may not need/want that kind of attention.) I am nurturing, loving, patient, fun, silly, physically fit, experienced, and professional. - Adult & pediatric CPR and First Aid certified (American Red Cross) -Background checked through the California Trustline Registry and through the company Urban Sitter uses. If your child needs help with school work, I might be able to help. I do love teaching. I home schooled one child for nine years, 4th-12th grade). I'm college educated, have a Masters degree from NYU, and have professional tutoring experience. My SUV seats seven, I can assemble nutritious meals, and I love dogs.

Hi! My name is Kayla, and I’m currently a law student at USC. I’m excited to spend my summer helping families with dependable, attentive, and engaging childcare. I’ve always loved working with children and have experience through tutoring, as well as growing up as 1 of 10 kids with many nieces and nephews. Being part of a big family has given me plenty of hands-on experience caring for children of different ages, and I genuinely enjoy creating a safe, positive, and fun environment where kids feel comfortable being themselves. Whether that means helping with homework, reading stories, getting creative with arts and crafts, exploring at the park, or doing mini science experiments, I love finding activities that keep children engaged and excited to learn. I’m responsible, organized, patient, and comfortable balancing busy schedules and high levels of responsibility. I’m happy to help wherever needed, whether that’s preparing simple meals, keeping routines on track, or lending an extra set of hands to make your family’s day run more smoothly. I also understand how important trust and communication are when it comes to childcare, and I strive to make both parents and children feel supported and at ease. I’m also very comfortable around pets! As the proud owner of a Saint Bernard and a Bernese Mountain Dog, I have plenty of experience caring for large dogs and would be happy to help in pet-friendly households (including homes with cats!). I would love the opportunity to connect with your family this summer and provide a caring, reliable presence for your children!
