Parents who have entrusted me to care for their children, pets, homes have said that I have a natural ability to anticipate needs, stay calm under pressure, and create a safe, positive environment. I'm responsible, dependable, and genuinely enjoy spending time with children. As an actor and creative person, I love engaging kids through imaginative play, reading, arts and crafts, games, and outdoor activities. I'm also happy to help with homework, meal preparation, school pickups, bedtime routines, and light household tasks. My goal is to make children feel supported, safe, and encouraged while giving parents confidence that everything is being handled with care and attention. I am literally the go-to for random unanticipated scenarios. Forgot your bridesmaids dress in you car at the flyaway and need someone to go to your house, grab the key, find the car in the flyaway parking lot, grab the dress, drive to LAX, and hand it over to you? I’m your girl. Yes, that’s a true story and she made her flight! I was the hero of that wedding and I didn’t even know the bride or groom. I’m able to quickly assess what a situation needs to ensure a calm and safe environment for children. I’ve handled bed times for double date nights when the couples would be expected home late. One of their daughters (6) was having trouble sleeping. I checked in on her every 15 minutes after she went to bed and she’d be awake, but she told me she lies awake for a long time before actually being able to sleep. So I asked her to close her eyes and travel in her mind to a beach. She can hear her parents laughing in the background, her sister playing in the sand, she herself is lying down on the beach. The sound of the ocean is blurring all other conversation, the wind is singing through the air, birds can be heard faintly… I saw her pupils picturing everything through her closed eyelids when I first started the exercises, but the movement eventually slowed down to a stop and she was fast asleep. That’s probably the best off the cuff success story I have. Anyway, I hope to hear from you! Thank you for your consideration!

Hello! I have over 10 years of experience helping single parents to busy high profile households with 4 kids. Their ages ranges from new borns to 13! I’m most comfortable caring for children 2 and up. Experience: - 4 years as an executive assistant - 8 years + as personal assistant - 14 years of nanny and babysitting - pet care + school pick up and drop off - happy to run errands and schedule activities as well. I’m looking for part time work until the end of the school year or provide any on call babysitter needs :) I love the family I’m working for now but they are sorting out their next move since they lost their home from the fires.

Hi, I'm Sydney!! I am 23 years old and would love the opportunity to work for your family. I’m a recent University of California, Santa Barbara graduate with a Bachelor's Degree in Early Childhood Education and Communications. I grew up in a family with two younger siblings, so from the day they were born, I’ve been used to caring for kids and have always enjoyed it. In addition to my family experience, I’ve also been babysitting for families in my neighborhood for as long as I can remember. Whether it was after-school care, weekends, or date nights, I’ve had the opportunity to work with kids of all ages and love creating a safe and fun environment for them. In addition to my nanny experience, I also worked as a camp counselor at Tocaloma Summer Camp, where I was responsible for a group of 13 energetic five-year-olds. This role gave me the opportunity to balance fun and structure while ensuring the safety and happiness of each child. It was such a valuable experience that allowed me to build patience, creativity, and strong leadership skills, as well as a deep appreciation for fostering growth and independence in young children. Most recently, I was part-time as a nanny for a 2-year-old and 5-year-old, where I was responsible for light cleaning, meal prep, transportation to and from cheer camp, and planning engaging daytime activities. I have a driver’s license, my own car, and am CPR and First Aid Certified. Looking forward to the chance to get to know your family!
