Jessica H., Babysitter in Long Beach, CA 90815 with 20 years of paid experience

Hello, I'm Jessica. I'm the oldest of 5 kids and have 2 adult kids of my own. I love working with children of all ages and have experience with special needs children and adults as well. I'm honest and trustworthy and children seem to love me as well. My friends call me the "Baby Whisperer" and say that I have a way with kids that is rare. I've worked with children for over 25 years and its the most rewarding work for me. I am CPR/First Aid certified and have been completely vaccinated against COVID-19. I'm looking forward to working with children of all ages and backgrounds. We'll have a fun loving time and lots of smiles and giggles.

Jessica is fantastic. She’s always on time and has been available even with short notice, which we really appreciate. My daughter felt comfortable with her immediately, even though Jessica was the first person outside our family to care for her. She has such a calm, reassuring energy and a very poised personality. I would definitely work with her again.

Maritza V., Babysitter in Long Beach, CA 90815 with 1 year of paid experience

I’m a college student studying health sciences with a genuine love for working with kids and creating a safe, positive environment for them. I have several years of babysitting experience caring for my 8 nieces and nephews, with ages ranging from toddlers to preteens, so I’m comfortable adapting to different personalities, routines, and needs—whether that’s playtime, helping with homework, or keeping things on schedule. I’m CPR and First Aid trained, reliable, patient, and attentive, and I always aim to make both kids and parents feel comfortable, supported, and confident in my care. Some of my hobbies include cooking, baking, playing games, and spending time with animals, so I’m happy to help in homes with pets. I have open availability that can meet your desired needs.

Camilla C., Babysitter in Long Beach, CA 90815 with 10 years of paid experience

Hello I'm Camilla, I am not your average nanny. I am a nurturing musical nanny who prioritizes safety and communication with parents. When it comes to infants, I provide helpful tips for first time parents, from baby proofing to using music from the newborn stage to support comfort, learning, and early development. Research and KTLA News have shown how infants respond to music and its benefits for early brain activity, attention, and engagement. I have seen first hand how, right before my eyes, music promotes early speech and curiosity. Infants often sing or vocalize along with music before they can fully articulate words, helping them connect sounds to language and tasks, even venturing into math. As a responsive and listening nanny, I have great success communicating with toddlers. I anticipate outcomes and help them navigate moments of frustration. As early as nine months, I teach rhythm, movement, rhyming, and how syllables connect in children as young as two. These patterns support early reading skills and encourage critical thinking. With a background in nursing and music, it is incredibly rewarding to see babies recognize my songs, then hear toddlers sing them and become engaged when I read to them. In my spare time I enjoy writing stories and composing songs that support developmental milestones. Music is one of my tools to soothe and stimulate infants while helping toddlers and young children navigate boundaries, new skills, potty training, and challenging moments. I compose songs that meet children's needs, bring enjoyment, and promote self esteem while encouraging them to keep trying. I also apply principles from Music Therapy and Occupational Therapy to support learning and development. Including children's individual interests helps build strong connections and spark curiosity. I am confident providing homework support and engaging children in creative arts activities. I bring a strong work ethic and can be counted on to be reliable and dedicated. I studied Music at UCLA and have a passion for teaching. I promote healthy snacks, stay up to date on vaccinations, and follow hygiene guidelines. I am available full or part time, for date nights, and as a mothers helper. I am comfortable around pets and have plenty of energy to keep up with growing little ones. Thank you for reading.

Camilla is so kind and sweet to our son, who is 3 years old. She has watched him many times now and he’s always happy and learning new things with her. I would definitely recommend her as a caring nanny!

Nanette is the best sitter we've ever had!! She is the only person outside of my family that I have felt 100% comfortable leaving my daughter with. She always knows what to do and you can tell that she's a great mom, which is very important in my opinion! Nanette also looks after our dog when we're out of town, and every time she comes to pick her up, our dog gets overly excited. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Nanette to anyone!

Alexandra K., Babysitter in Long Beach, CA 90815 with 8 years of paid experience

Hello, my name is Alex, and I am a fun-loving caregiver with 8 years of experience across all age groups. I have a very flexible schedule, and I can often work last minute if needed! I am currently completing a master's in Counseling Psychology to become a marriage and family therapist, and I recently concluded nannying for 3 wonderful siblings aged 3, 6, and 8. I have two younger brothers whom I babysat for years, alongside various other preschool, elementary, and middle school-aged children. I have a BA in psychology and was fortunate to learn a great deal about child development during my education. I love art, music, and sports, so I can help keep your youngster entertained! I am also an experienced cook and am happy to take on household tasks such as meal preparation, cleaning, laundry, transportation, and animal care. I can also help with bedtime routines and stay late or overnight if needed. Whether you are looking for occasional or long-term care, I look forward to hearing from you!

Alex worked for us part time for a year and helped our household function. You would be lucky to hire Alex for any childcare needs. She has a great approach with the kids and is very flexible to help out with whatever you need. My 3 kids loved spending time with Alex (as did we!) and we would not hesitate to hire her for any childcare moving forward. She is amazing with young kids (our son was 3) as well as older (6-9) and lovingly holds boundaries while being very fun. We wish she could be part of our family for longer!

Kevin D., Babysitter in Long Beach, CA 90815 with 21 years of paid experience

I'm an energetic, dependable caregiver who connects naturally with kids, especially boys. I bring the patience and reliability of a seasoned adult with the playfulness of a "fun uncle." I keep kids active, engaged and happy through outdoor play, games, homework, activities and outings. With 20 years experience as a coach, mentor, tutor and caregiver, I especially enjoy being a positive male role model for boys--building confidence, curiosity, good habits and fun. I'm UCLA-educated, CPR-certified, and experienced with ASD & ADHD. I'm happy to help with homework, drive to school and activities, play at the park or beach, visit museums, follow family routines, or simply spend time with your children at home. I don't just supervise; I engage with kids, talk and play at their level, and build genuine relationships. My goal is to provide a safe, warm, active presence that children enjoy and parents trust. I value clear communication and hope to become a consistent, long-term family support.

As a single mom of an 8-year-old, finding someone I could truly trust with my son was incredibly important, and Kevin exceeded every expectation. He was dependable, communicative, and wonderful with my child... helping with school pickups, getting him to/from activities, and keeping him engaged and happy. What stood out most was the genuine connection he built with my son. He became not just a caregiver but a trusted friend of our family and a steady, positive male role model. My son always looked forward to the time they spent together, and I felt completely confident knowing he was in caring, capable hands. We only stopped working together because our family moved, and I wholeheartedly recommend him to any family looking for a responsible, kind and trustworthy caregiver!

Hello everyone :) . I have ECE units as well as an updated CPR and First aid training card. I have been working with kids for 20 years! My Passion for children took place while I was a teenager in high school. I worked as an intern at a day care in Long Beach and fell in love with teaching and working with kids. Many people call me the baby whisperer lol because everywhere I go, babies cling to me and love me immediately. Right now I work as a case manager at a women’s shelter part time. I love helping others ! My sweet spirit allows not only the kid to love me but the parents also. Some kids take more time but I have the patience to build the trust needed for me and that child to build a great relationship. I’ve worked in a day care setting and baby sat for many parents from the school. I am going to go back to school to get my masters degree in counseling so that I can become a children’s counselor for public schools. I am not a partier, drinker type nor do I use profanity. I dont discriminate & I pray that the same energy to presented to me. I will respect your life and your rules. I LOVE music and I love to dance. Might I also add that i am quite silly lol. Which works great when you’re dealing with toddlers or young ones . There’s so much more I can say but I’ll stop right here . Thank you for taking the time to read this ❤️ I’m open to share my resume !

She is one of the kindest , most compassionate, loving and empathetic person I’ve ever met! She is so trustworthy and people call her the baby whisperer. Her personality is reserved in nature and she is very respectful. I’d recommend anyone to encounter her no matter what race , ethnicity or background. You won’t regret it

I am a 47 year old mom to a 15 year old wonderful young man. I started taking care of children when I was 13 years old. I love children and want them to have a positive healthy atmosphere and good nutrition. I think structure is important like having a consistent routine for sleep and eating. I feel that music should be on most of the time. I was born in New York to immigrant parents from Greece. I speak Greek fluently and have studied other languages including French and Spanish. I love to cook, bake, go fishing and garden. I have experience with children with special needs and understand the challenges and joys that come from them.

Our family, especially my three children, absolutely adored “Argi.” She introduced all of us to new cultural aspects and ways of life. She taught my children with passion, care, patience, humor, and she’s an amazing cook as well. She put strong emphasis on healthy choices and nutrition in every meal and does it with endless amounts of love and care. She is respectful of other cultures and traditions. She knows how to get my kids to open up and share their concerns with her. For example, my daughter who was going through some tough times with school so Argi would always make it a point to do special little things for her and constantly reminding her how strong and resilient she is, giving her confidence to overcome anything that got in her way. My son who does not like to try new food now discovers that he likes Greek and Mediterranean cuisine. She’s the biggest cheerleader and supporter to all three kids with their sports and always shows up to support them.At times when I find myself at odds with my children lol, Argi becomes the peacemaker middleman trying to help us understand each other’s perspectives. She brings a lifetime of experience rich with diversity, intellect, and human decency. Anyone who is lucky enough to have her in their homes will absolutely value her.

Megan is great with our 1 year old son! Our son went right to her and they played the whole time she was watching him, you can tell he had fun! She is very responsive and showed great care for our son. We’re looking forward to having Megan watch him again.
