My name is Angie, and I’m a 24-year-old with over 7 years of babysitting experience. I currently work at a private Christian school in the valley, where I’ve had the privilege of caring for and teaching children of all ages. I absolutely love being a helping hand to parents, especially when it comes to giving them a chance for a much-needed date night! I understand how important it is to have those moments to reconnect. I’m also recently married and excited to start working with new families. I look forward to providing safe, fun, and caring support for your little ones while you enjoy some time for yourself!
“My family is so glad we found Angelica! She is dependable and punctual. Her energy is positive and fun, and she is patient, sweet and overall great with kids.”
Hello there, I'm Elis! I am a caregiver specialized in early childhood development. I've been working with kids all ages for over 8 years now. In Brazil, where I’m from, I’ve worked as a teacher and manager of an English school for two years and a half, before moving to US, in this past experience, I've had the chance to learn about pedagogy, early childhood learning and educational activities with focus on learning while having fun. I have taken neuroscience courses mostly as a hobby, but I’m very passionate about mental health, and having in mind the importance of a healthy childhood, I do my best to always lead with kindness and empathy, while dealing with kids. I love singing, act, arts, crafts, and I consider myself a very active and creative person. I'm very patient and able to adapt to different types of schedules, kids tend to adapt really well with me. I'm very committed to my job and consider punctuality something essential, even though I can be flexible and I'm always open to suggestions of how to improve my services. I believe that everything can be easily solved with communication, respect and kindness, as we are a team, working together with the goal of providing the best possible care for your little one. I'm looking forward to hear from you, let me know if you have any specific questions. Thank you! (FYI: Covid vaccinated)
“Elis was so sweet and my daughter had a great time with her. Would definitely have her back. ”
Hi! My name is Halie I am born and raised in Los Angeles and I’ve had the pleasure of care giving for 20+ years. Im experienced with all ages from infant to college students and have always enjoyed taking care of people in general. Open to helping out or weekly sitting gigs to make the household maintain a smooth transition into back to school routines. Don't hesitate to ask about anything! I'm also a dog + house sitter and have plenty of references for all mentioned. Looking forward to your message!
“Prompt, thoughtful, proactive to consider our toddler’s needs and understood how to engage well with him. ”
Hi! My name is Sydney and I am college graduate from Brandeis University and have recently graduated from Parker University. I have been babysitting since I was 14. I am CPR/First Aid/AED certified for children and infants. I played collegiate and international softball, so I can definitely handle an active child. I love children of all ages. I worked in a daycare from 2[removed] in Massachusetts in the 2-3-year-old classroom. In addition to children, I also adore animals. I have been a Wag Walker for 4 years, but I also volunteered at an animal rescue for years. I have two dogs, a cat, and a turtle so I can (and will) comfortably care for your animals!
“Fantastic! Great communicator and my kids loved her! ”
Hi! My name is Serena and I'm a recent grad from San Francisco State University. I majored in Child & Adolescent Development with a concentration in School Age Child & Family. During college I was an afterschool nanny for 4 years for the same family, providing transportation to activities, helping with homework, performing light housekeeping, and preparing lunches for the next day. I also worked at the San Francisco Zoo as a camp instructor for three summers, working with children ages 4 to 10. I would describe my childcare philosophy as a strong emphasis on building trustful relationships, with lots of fun and laughing! I have my own car with a clean driving record, and I am also CPR/First Aid certified! Looking forward to meet you and your kids! :)
