$25 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 3 families in Panorama City, CA

Hello! I am a PhD Student in Sociology, where I focus on the sociology of childhood and education. Beyond my research, I have had lots of experience working with kids - casually as a babysitter, but also more formally at a variety of summer camps. I am new to Los Angeles (from London, England) and have enjoyed exploring all the wonderful parks and enjoying the sun. Hope I can do more with your child(ren) sometime soon :)

“Kids immediately warmed to Lara and had such fun playing with her! Will definitely hire again. ”

Tranell $24 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Tranell. I am caring, reliable, detail oriented, patient loving person, who overall enjoys helping. I recently graduated MRI school. I understand routines, patience, and creating a safe, calm environment for children. I have hands-on experience supporting autistic children, which has taught me the importance of consistency, understanding, and individualized care. I’m very detail-oriented, patient, and compassionate, and I always prioritize safety and clear communication. I’m comfortable with pets. I am also very knowledgeable, wise and helpful in many areas. I would love to be a help to you, as a support system would. I genuinely love being a woman families can rely on. I believe children thrive when they are surrounded by a strong, caring village, and parents do too. I understand how demanding parenthood can be, and I’m passionate about helping create smoother days and a supportive environment for the entire family. I’d love to support your family with reliable, attentive care you can feel confident about.

Azalia $25 per hour for 1 child

My name is Azalia and I am currently in my last semester of school. I am offering babysitting and dog-sitting services. I believe that I am great with kids and I enjoy creating a fun space for them. I have experience caring for toddlers between the ages of 3 and 6 years old and limited experience with caring for infants. I eventually want to become a child therapist after graduating from college, so having more experience with children would be amazing for me. I like to create fun activities for kids like creating art, playing games, just activities that would keep them busy! I have a BLS certification as well. I am very patient with kids, so I think my personality is perfect for babysitting!

Frankie $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi there! My name is Frankie -- it's so good to meet you! I am 28, finishing out a Bachelors in Illustration, with a minor in Art Education. In the last few years I worked as a Senior Recreation Leader, specializing in toddler classes that are both fun, educational, and encourage development of both gross and fine motor skills. I also assisted in After School Programs for older kids, and led cooking classes for children ages 6-11. Working with children of all ages is the most rewarding work I've ever done, and I look forward to working with you!
