Hi Parents! Its a pleasure to meet you. You will find I have a large gap in my reviews because I have been working with a family long term the past 2 years and have been mainly hired by repeat families (Would be happy to offer that reference.) I am now available for new families! I'm a writer-actress recently moved to LA from NYC! (Hence the mainly NYC reviews) I received my BS in Advertising and Marketing Communications from FIT, minoring in English. In my spare time I enjoy writing poetry, reading, films, playing volleyball, working out and just being active. I'm a lover of nature as well as a lover of laughter :) I grew up taking care of kids/ being around kids all the time because of my very fertile family haha . I knew how to change a diaper since I was about 10 years old and as I got older I was one of the go to for watching my little cousins who ranged from newborns to 12 years. I have experience with all ages and get along great with kids. I'm patient, understanding and educated. I have done pick ups after school, traveled home to work on homework, prepared a snack/cook dinner and fun time if there was time left after. I have experience with overnight/vacation sitting where I was the main caretaker and very comfortable with it. I've taken children to parks, museums and played with them. I know how to change diapers, do bath time, put to sleep and keep everyone happy :) I also do light cleaning if necessary and I am red cross cpr certified and have first aid training. Cancellation policy- same day/ last minute cancellation requires the full booking amount to be paid. I tend to have a lot of inquiries and and when you book in advance I am fully committed to you. I turn down any other offers that i receive! I understand things come up however, this is my main source of income and i take it very seriously! The time i scheduled for you is very important to me as it should be for you :) **For bookings ending at or beyond 9pm travel home would be required!

Hi, I’m Mara. I’m 27 with over 10 years of paid childcare experience, working with children from infancy through teenage years. I’ve supported families in long-term, short-term, and overnight roles, and I’m confident handling everything from daily routines to more involved care needs. I also have experience working with children on the autism spectrum, ADHD, and other developmental needs, and I approach each child with patience, awareness, and adaptability. My personality is calm, grounded, and attentive. I naturally create a peaceful, structured environment where children feel safe, understood, and comfortable. I’m very intentional about how I show up — present, observant, and responsive without being overwhelming. I have strong experience with infant and toddler care, school routines, transportation to activities, homework support, and meal prep. In many of my long-term roles, I’ve also supported the home during school hours or summer camp schedules, keeping things clean, organized, and running smoothly so families can come home to a well-maintained space. I’m comfortable with both childcare-related tasks and overall household upkeep. In addition to my hands-on experience, I’m the CEO of a childcare-based nonprofit where I’ve led teams in schools to support structured play during recess and lunch, focusing on social and emotional development and helping children navigate conflict in a positive way. My nonprofit is currently in a rebuilding phase due to district funding cuts. Because of that, I prefer to work with a family where I can commit long-term (ideally 1–2 years), allowing me to provide consistent, reliable support day-to-day while also having stability in my own schedule. I value structure, communication, and mutual respect, and I do best with families who are looking for someone dependable, calm, and proactive. Someone they can trust to handle both childcare and household support without needing constant direction. I’m dependable, consistent, and respectful of each family’s routines and preferences. Families I’ve worked with value that they can trust me to step in seamlessly, stay calm in any situation, and handle responsibilities with care. I take what I do seriously and genuinely care about creating a positive, safe experience for both the child and the family. *Non-smoker

I'm a LA native that has worked with children since I was 14. I'm also a professional dancer but nothing fulfills me like working with kids! I love to incorporate art and expression, but have no problem with laying down rules and running errands. I grew up in a big family and have been with children of all ages since day 1! I have a flexible schedule and competitive rates.

Hello families! My name is Mary, and I have over 15 years of experience caring for children of all ages, from infants to school-aged children. I am CPR and First Aid certified, TrustLine registered, and have excellent references from families I have worked with throughout the years. I am a loving, patient, reliable, and energetic caregiver who truly enjoys helping children learn, grow, and have fun in a safe environment. I enjoy planning educational activities, arts and crafts, reading, outdoor adventures, and age-appropriate learning experiences that keep children engaged and happy. I am currently looking for a wonderful family to work with and would love the opportunity to become a trusted part of your child’s life.

Hi! My name is Justine. I am 30 years old. I have been babysitting for over a decade and have 5 years of professional nannying experience. I have recently relocated from Chicago to the Los Angeles area. That being said, my experience ranges from working with toddlers to school aged children. I have helped with homework extensively throughout my career. Other responsibilities I have held in the past include cooking meals and shuttling kids to their various activities. I also was in charge of other household duties such as: creating grocery lists, shopping, etc. I am a punctual, professional and hands on nanny. My goal is to create a safe, positive space for children to develop into the best versions of themselves. I am a patient, loving, and committed nanny to all of my kids. Outside of childcare, my interests include reading, self education, cooking, gardening, herbalism, and stopping to sniff the flowers. I look forward to speaking with you, Justine
