Find experienced babysitters in Altadena, CA

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.

I have some experience working with babies and 1 year olds up to 3 year olds. I love to play with babies, change them, watch them, and protect them. I have worked at three churches working with babies ages 0-3 and other ages. I can tolerate loud crying, and I can carry them for long periods of time, and sing to them and play with them to keep them calm. I love working with children, and being a support system and guide for them and being an assistance for the parents.

I have been with Sitter City for almost 2 years and have been very fortunate to provide my services to many incredible families whose children I just adore! In August 2024, I held a substitute position at a daycare, helping to care for 12 little ones under 2 years old. I do children and pets well. I love playing traditional board games, doing puzzles, reading stories - Dr. Seuss is my best friend! Singing songs, going out for walks, playing in the park and creating fun adventures. I genuinely enjoy being a sitter and love to help, teach, play with the children I care for. I am also 100% animal friendly. You name it - I've either owned it or experienced it. I am trustworthy, responsible, punctual, kind and patient. I offer 19 years of hands-on experience, maturity and knowledge to keep your child(ren) safe, happy and entertained when you need to be away.

I am certified with The Red Cross Pediatric First Aid/CPR/AED, CDSS Child Abuse & Neglect Reporter and my immunizations are up-to-date. Merci. Who Ya Gonna Call?!! Karen @ (818) 579-3081

Hello! I’m glad to have the opportunity to present myself! I graduated as an early childhood teacher and also experienced teaching and taking care of children and teenagers of all ages. I appreciate being around kids, exchanging experiences and sharing. It’s always fun! For me, being a childcare provider makes me feel like I’m making a difference in the kid’s life, adding to them by giving them attention, showing them they deserve to be loved, respected and taken care of. People often give me compliments on how patient I am with kids, and I always answer with “that’s because I respect the kids’ time”. They have their own time, and why hurry them when they’ll have a whole adult life to do that? I enjoy every single part of being with kids, taking them places, listening to their stories, cooking with them, eating, chatting, doing crafts, reading stories… I feel privileged to have those gifts and to have the opportunity to be in a small part of children’s stories.

I've 7 years experience working with infants and toddlers, I'm educated and CPR certified. Very passionate about childcare and love children. Flexible for time and schedule and super caring and responsible about the children and families who trust me 🙏

I empathize with children's feelings while upholding boundaries and rules. 🧡 My go-to activities are playing games, singing songs, and being silly. I allow children to naturally warm up to me, but ultimately I know how to connect and relate to them and allow them to feel seen and heard. 🌻 I received my Bachelor's Degree in 2014 from San Diego State University with a B.A. in Pscyhology. I have my Early Childhood Education (ECE) credentials that certify me as a licensed care-giver and pre-school teacher by the state of California. 🌻 I have a car, am a non-smoker, comfortable with pets, and am also okay with taking care of sick children and helping potty train. 🌻 I charge $30/hour and have many references that I am willing to provide. I am vaccinated and willing to run a background check. 🌻 Please message me if you'd like to chat and see how I can offer care for your family!

I can’t think of a time in my life where I haven’t been surrounded by children. Born the third of seven in Chicago, my love for “little humans” was inevitable. Throughout my entire life, I have been a childcare provider but more consistently in the last 15 years. My jobs have ranged from being a full time nanny to a one year old to a babysitter of 3. My outgoing personality and background in the arts helps me to connect w/the imaginative and creative sides that all children have. I have a passion for life and the future generation, which is why childcare is where you'll find me. I have extensive experience in caring for infants, babies, toddlers, as well as through school-age children. I am a non-smoker, non-drinker and fully vaccinated. Be it a few hours or something more permanent, I would love to be a part of your extended family.
