Hello! My name is Britt. 😊 I grew up in WA state near Seattle and came to CA for college. I have 29 years of experience... Ever since age 13 I’ve babysat for several families at a time and also loved it! I think the best part of it all is getting to see these tiny beings change and grow, seeing their personalities come to light. Many might see babysitting as just a necessity for parents to be able to go out and have adult time, but it’s so much more than that. It’s a chance to have fun, to engage a child’s sense of wonder and their sense of self. I like to do activities with them and be outdoors when possible. I’m very respectful of parents’ preferences and like to follow their same rules set for their kids. I know that being a parent can sometimes be challenging... I can be there to help give you a much needed break or to help make daily life a little easier for you. While I have not been blessed to be a mother yet myself, I’ve learned a wide variety of things from each of the families I’ve had the pleasure to know and love. I have experience with autistic, Down syndrome, as well as behaviorally challenged individuals. I can help with homework, house work, transportation, and errands. I also am available for overnights, weekend stays (or longer if needed) and assistance on family vacations. Any other questions feel free to ask! ☺️

I am currently a student in college working towards a sociology associates to transfer into ABA. I work with special needs children using ABA techniques and practices and have babysitting experience. My family was a foster home for most of my life as well so I pretty much grew up spending time with and caring for children. I love finding new ways to connect and be creative. My goal is to have lots of fun while still staying professional and maybe teaching something along the way.

My names is Angelina, I am 21 and I have worked with children my whole life. My first job as a teenager was a swim instructor where i taught children from 9months - 17 years old how to swim. Following my job as a lifeguard/swim instructor, I had an internship at a preschool where I was a teacher assistant. Lately, my new job as a BI consists of me working with children on the spectrum. In addition to my work experience, I babysit for my older sister whenever she needs some extra help, and feel more than qualified to babysit children of all ages.

Hi! I’m a NICU nurse with extensive experience caring for newborns and children, and I bring the same dedication, skill, and compassion to my babysitting. Working in the NICU has taught me how to stay calm under pressure, anticipate needs, and provide highly individualized care, so parents can trust their children are safe, supported, and well-cared-for at all times. I understand the importance of routines, gentle guidance, and creating a nurturing environment where kids feel secure, happy, and engaged.

My name is Bailey and I am CPR & AED /First Aide certified. I have always loved kids and spending time with them, as I grew up my mom had a daycare I would help with when I was not at school. I helped take care of newborns up to 10 yr olds. I also have a younger brother that I have helped with. During the summer I would help take the kids to the park, watch them in the pool, do fun activities, and take them on cool field trips to things like the kids museum.
