Unavailable for full-time nanny positions Hi! I’m a dependable, warm, and experienced caregiver with over 15 years of childcare experience and 67 repeat families since joining this platform in 2016. I work full-time as an HR Generalist in Los Angeles during the week and provide babysitting support for families seeking consistent, reliable care from someone they can truly trust. As the second oldest of seven siblings, caring for children has always been second nature to me. While I have experience with children ranging from 6 weeks through 15 years old, I especially enjoy working with toddlers and preschool-aged children (approximately 1–5 years old). I’m patient, attentive, and nurturing, and I focus on creating a calm, structured, and engaging environment through age-appropriate play, outdoor time, routines, and gentle guidance. Families often describe me as dependable, communicative, and easy to work with. I’m comfortable managing bedtime routines, light meal prep, transitions, and following household preferences to ensure continuity of care. Outside of work, I enjoy volunteering in the community, traveling, hiking, Olympic weightlifting (which emphasizes focus, discipline, and safety), running, and unwinding with a good book. I typically respond to booking requests within a couple of hours during the workweek. I look forward to building long-term relationships with families and being a trusted part of your child’s care team. Important note: At the time of booking, please let me know if your child is currently ill, recovering from an illness, has special needs, diabetes, or requires any specific care considerations. This helps ensure I can provide the best care possible and avoid any last-minute misunderstandings.

“Susanna was great with my 2yr old daughter! She was warm and friendly. I look forward to hiring her again!”

Hi, and thanks for stopping by! I have many years of experience working with high-net-worth and high-profile families in Los Angeles. I’m TrustLine registered and have been thoroughly vetted by some of LA’s top nanny agencies. I currently work as a full-time, rotational live-in nanny in Montecito on a three-weeks-on, three-weeks-off schedule. During my off weeks, I’m happy to support local families needing occasional help. My schedule is guaranteed through the end of the year. I look forward to connecting!

Hi my name is Jeremiah (for hiring purposes I’ve used my family name Jamie). I was a nanny for over 14 years. I have experience working with children birth to adolescents. I currently work in higher education and with preschoolers. My background is in child development and early childhood education for almost 20 years, with a specialization in trauma studies. I am in school, working on my master’s thesis in human development and looking to gain perspective with my time here (with you). I love the littles, babies are my niche. I incorporate a lot of structure and developmentally appropriate design for consistency in care based on family dynamics. I am pro active in holistic wellness *Psa* Infant care and/or special needs will be at higher rate listed. Day of cancellations will require a deposit of half of booked time slot. Please message before booking. I am not on daily to update my calendar as I have full schedule that fluctuates. It may reflect changes due to last bookings and may not reflect my current availability.

“Jaime is amazing! She instantly made my girls super comfortable. It was our first babysitter experience so we were pretty nervous, however Jaime kept us in the loop so we didn't feel anxious and could enjoy our time away. We definitely will have her back! ”

Booked by 14 families in Hawthorne, CA

Hi! I’m Bailey 😊 I’m a UCSB alum (BS in Psychological and Brain Sciences), EMT certified, and currently in registered nursing school. I have 8+ years of experience caring for children of all ages. I worked at the UCSB Child Care Center throughout my undergraduate years, including in the infant and toddler rooms where I regularly cared for multiple children at once. I also previously worked in Labor & Delivery as an OB/Surgical Tech, where I assisted in deliveries and C-sections and gained strong exposure to newborn care and hospital safety. I’ve worked as a paraeducator supporting children with special needs and currently work as a substitute teacher (TK–12 + SPED), so I’m very comfortable with a wide range of ages and needs. I’m warm, reliable, and truly love caring for kids—it’s a big reason I’m pursuing nursing. I enjoy creating a safe, engaging, and fun environment where children feel comfortable and supported. I have my own car, am CPR/First Aid certified, vaccinated, and happy to provide references. I’m also very comfortable with pets! I’d love to connect and see if I’d be a great fit for your family!
