Priscilla $20 per hour for 1 child

I’m Priscilla, a fellow mom just looking to support another family with night care/date nights, occasional care, or short-term babysitting. The little one I was caring for recently started daycare, so I’m hoping to connect with a new family who needs someone loving, patient, and reliable. Additionally, they still contact me asking to care for baby if needed. As a nursing student, my schedule can be a little unique, but I’m usually up studying until 2–3 AM anyway, so evenings and nights work beautifully for me! (My school schedule is completely online until April 12th) A little about me 😊 • I’m 20 and a mama to my sweet, adventurous almost 19 month old son • I’m the oldest of 5 (ages 3–15), so caring for kids is second nature • One of my siblings has William syndrome and on the spectrum, so I’m familiar with adapting care, gentle communication, and meeting children exactly where they are • I love walks, reading, hands-on play, arts & crafts, and trying new recipes when I get the chance I’m a low-to-no-screen caregiver — we rarely use screens at home, so I absolutely understand and respect families who want engaging, present, and mindful care. I’m happy to keep little ones entertained with play, imagination, and comfort without devices. I’m also very comfortable following sleep routines and bedtime schedules, and can keep your nighttime rhythm consistent while you enjoy your well deserved time away. I can provide three references with families I’ve worked with and 2 of my personal family reference letters if needed !! 😊

Lexi $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi everyone! My name is Lexi and I’m a freshman at Chapman University looking for a part-time babysitting job in Orange. I have over eight years of experience caring for children and I am a Red Cross Safe Sitter as well as CPR and Heimlich certified. I am majoring in Psychology and have always loved working with kids. Since I do not have my car on campus, I am hoping to find a position within walking distance from Chapman, however, I am also willing to uber. I am responsible, compassionate, and committed to creating a safe and fun environment for children, and I would love to connect if you are looking for a reliable sitter. I also have extensive experience babysitting children with autism and disabilities.

Paola $22 per hour for 1 child

I am a credentialed public school teacher in south Orange County. More specifically, I’ve been a dual-language immersion (English and Spanish) teacher focused on working with K-2 students. I enjoy interacting with children and figured nannying could be a great way to expand my child-care skills working with families that could need me for a couple hours.

Nice to meet you! I’m Kate, a 37 year old career nanny who moved from Chicago to LA in 2021 for a jet-setting/bi-coastal, travel heavy nanny position, and once the position ended, I decided to stay out here permanently. I live in Orange County with my girlfriend, and work M-Th, 7a-7p, in Studio City. My previous position was Jan ‘23- Nov ‘24. My background has always been in early childhood, and majored in early childhood education in college. I have years of experience with all age ranges and backgrounds: from kids who thrive in group settings to kids that do best with individualized, 1:1 care to kids who are neurodivergent. My first and top priority is the safety and wellbeing. Second is play, exploration, imagination, creativity, and seeing kids explore based on what they are into and things they find interesting. Third is, in my day-to-day, I take a child-centered approach. Including, but not limited to: time outside, walks, going to playgrounds, and finding activities within the home that the kids enjoy. My experience includes: working as a in-home support worker with neurodivergent kids, have worked at 3 early childhood centers (both as an assistant teacher and lead teacher); and all my experience has been from newborn to school age. In my free time: I love checking out new restaurants, adventuring the outdoors with my girlfriend, finding new trails to hike on AllTrails, the beach, and weekend trips

Kate was very communicative and took great care of our two kids. We have some adorable pictures from their time together and my daughter loved her (who can be very picky with babysitters). Thanks for everything!
