Sittercity helps Altadena families find the best babysitters

Hey there! I'm Paralee and I am a childcare professional in Los Angeles. My personality is upbeat and loving; I have been successfully providing exceptional care for children and families for over 10 years in the Los Angeles area. I am most experienced caring for children from ages 15 months to 16 years. Some of my most notable experiences include being a site director for a reputable Los Angeles based summer camp for 3 years and teaching 12th grade at an LA charter school. I love creating engaging activities and helping children set healthy daily habits. I am very meticulous in following the details parents have laid out for their children to follow. Helping families thrive is very rewarding. I can help with meal preparation, children’s laundry, light housekeeping, school pickups/drop offs and homework help. I am reliable and down-to-Earth. I would love to tell you more about my experience as a babysitter/nanny in Los Angeles and the surrounding areas. If you are looking for reliable support, I would love to hear from you! Warm Regards, Paralee

I have over 10 years of experience in childcare, including more than 5 years as a Montessori assistant teacher. After recently relocating to California, I’m currently babysitting while perusing my goal to become a children’s occupational therapist. Throughout my career, I’ve worked with children ranging from infants to 3rd grade, and as a sitter, I’ve cared for children of all ages. I believe in creating a safe, loving environment with clear boundaries, while honoring each child as a unique individual. My goal is to foster independence and self-love in every child, as I find great joy in helping them build confidence and a strong sense of self. With a fun-loving, patient, and energetic approach, I encourage creativity and imagination, often drawing on my background in theatre to inspire compassion and playfulness. Most sittings include at least one dance party, especially if we need to burn off energy or reset our focus! I bring a "Mary Poppins" bag to each session, filled with age-appropriate books, crafts, and activities to keep your child engaged and entertained. I would love the opportunity to support and nurture your family!

Hi! My name's Kiera and I can't wait to meet you! I'm available to help with babysitting, pet sitting or anything else you may need. I'm a performer and I absolutely love musical theatre. My favorite movie is Tangled and my favorite artist is Ariana Grande. I have 3 cats and a dog, I'm a big animal lover. I absolutely love kids of all ages and have been babysitting for around 4 years now. I specifically love helping with school work, I'm a bit of a math nerd, so if your kids need any help with homework, I'll be sure to be there.

I have about 27 yrs of experience. I just love, love, love, babies and children, and have worked with all ages, from newborns to teenagers! I have 15 units of Child Development. I have worked at a daycare and for LA and Pasadena Unified School Districts and because of this, I consider myself an infant and toddler teacher because I gained a lot of experience as one. I have a lot of fun and exciting age-appropriate learning activities that the children enjoy! I know and teach some baby signs and Spanish to the children that I work with. I also teach phonics and other pre-reading/reading skills along with sight words, digraphs, and blends. I also teach beginners addition and subtraction in a fun way! So the children that I work with are always smarter and ready for preschool and/or kindergarten.

To whom I may concern, I had worked in the childcare field, as a nanny close to 20 years. Some of my experienced includes the care of twins, newborn and older children. Helped many new parents with the care of their little one, getting the baby in a schedule,with tummy problems and reaching the milestones of their child. I can provide letters of recommendations, local references and CPR certification. My schedule is flexible. Thank You.

I am a 29 year old Cal State Los Angeles Graduate, current Substitute Teacher, and I would like to be your babysitter! I am great with kids, have experience helping out my younger cousins, and I've taken a Red Cross First Aid and CPR Course. I am patient with and empathetic to children. I also have a selection of old movies and toys that I can share with kids as well.

Hello! My name is Lyle and I can't wait to meet you! I have nannied young infants as early as 3 months and have worked as a preschool teacher for ages 2-4 years. My primary form of work is in dance and yoga so I have a big love of movement and the arts! When babysitting I enjoy taking children outdoors to run around, creating indoor crafts, as well as homework help and more. I see myself as more than just a “sitter” but a true lending hand in the upbringing of your children, so please feel free to ask me as many questions as you wish. *I also have experience watching children with T1 and other physical/mental specialties.

Favorite Babysitting Activities I love action! I enjoy going on walks and taking kids to the park to relax on the grass, play, swing, and enjoy the outdoors. I also love stimulating their minds (and mine) at local museums, zoos, and children's groups.At home my favorite things to do are read books, do art projects and play fun and educational games!

I'm CPR and First Aid certified, with over 14 years of experience in early childhood education through Early Head Start and Preschool Head Start programs, where I supported infants, toddlers, and preschoolers with compassion and structure. As a nursing student at West Coast University, I bring a deep understanding of health, wellness, and patient-centered care into every caregiving role. I’ve provided hands-on care for my two godsons from infancy to age three, regularly babysit my nieces and nephews, and create safe, engaging environments tailored to each child’s needs. I’m also a proud dog mom to three, comfortable with pet care routines and the joy animals bring to families. Known for my nice-spirited and uplifting nature, I connect easily with people of all ages, adapting intuitively to changing dynamics. I love crafting creative activities, communicate with emotional intelligence, and maintain organized, welcoming spaces that support both children and families

I am entering my second year as a First Grade Teacher and was previously a preschool teacher for 13 years. I have been babysitting on and off for the last 18 years. I am the oldest of 4 so one can say I started babysitting even earlier. I love working with children and viewing the world through their eyes.
