I truly love Alyssa. She is very professional, reliable and loving. Her energy is amazing and my son adores her. I only wish I could keep her to myself lol. She is just a joy. I was very apprehensive using a site to assist me with care for my 3 year old son. I did countless interviews but as soon as I interviewed her I knew she was the one. I only hope that one day I can afford to keep her full-time. Thank you for loving and caring for my baby .

Hi Parents! I simply enjoy the innocent energy of infants, babies, toddlers and children. They are like precious battery chargers to me. I will care for your child/children as if they are my own. I have 40 years of sitting experience, personal experience and tons of references. I moved to L.A. from FL in 2025. In FL I was with a family for 6 years from newborn age until both children were school age. I stay in communication with almost all of the families that I’ve nurtured over the years. Amazing to watch them grow into adults with careers. I have 8 LA area references, which I can provide you with their contact info. I am CPR and First Aid certified. I'm a divorced empty-nester, so my schedule is wide-open for your convenience. My 22 yr old daughter also lives in Hollywood, we get together a few times a week. I have a car and am willing to babysit up to 10 miles from Hollywood LA. I am also available days and/or evenings on the weekend. Please note - I have a 4 hour minimum per sitting. I am also willing to travel with families on vacations upon request.

Melissa watched our 19 month old and he had a blast. She took her time letting him get comfortable with her and then helped him enjoy all his favorite things all day long. We've already booked her for more time and we just know she's going to be one of our boy's favorite sitters in no time!

Dina  H., Babysitter in Tarzana, CA 91356 with 11 years of paid experience

Hi! I'm a caring, energetic, and dependable sitter who genuinely enjoys helping children learn, grow, and have fun. I have experience caring for infants, toddlers, and school-aged children, including children with autism, and I strive to create a safe, patient, and supportive environment where every child feels comfortable and understood. I am CPR certified and have experience tutoring as well as teaching swimming, tennis, and beach volleyball. I love staying active and enjoy creating engaging activities that build confidence, encourage learning, and keep kids entertained. Whether it's helping with homework, playing outside, doing arts and crafts, or supporting bedtime routines, I aim to make every child feel cared for and every parent feel at ease. Professionally, I have spent over 10 years in project management and operations roles, which has made me highly organized, reliable, and calm under pressure. I have my own transportation and understand the importance of punctuality, communication, and trust when caring for your children. I would love the opportunity to support your family and provide a fun, nurturing, and dependable childcare experience!

Dina was amazing with my two kids! They had so much fun with her from helping to make dinner to jumping around at the trampoline park. She also watched them overnight for several days and did a great job with keeping their routine going from bedtime to school drop-off. She was punctual, responsible, communicated well with us, kept us up to date on what they were doing, and was kind and understanding of any feelings the children had. They are already asking when they can stay with her again!

Hello, My name is Monica, I have many years experience working with young children. I would love to be your nanny if you think I'd make a good fit for your family. I currently reside in the San Fernando valley. A bit about myself: I have worked as a Teacher in a family owned daycare while i attendeded college. I then began my internship hours at a private school in Sylmar & once I completed two semesters of internship hours I was hired fulltime as a Preschool teacher & i worked there for 8 years. I then worked at a daycare for a few years. Then with the Pandemic I began to Nanny for a family with three children. I loved helping the children reach their milestones while keeping the parents up to date on every new milestone. Keeping children safe & happy is always important to me. I am flexible when changes arise & i can also follow a strict schedule to fit the needs of every parent. I am Bilingual, organized, and i enjoy helping others get organized. I am CPR certified, a Non-smoker, with a clean record. I love all pets/animals and children and animals love me too. I’d be happy to provide references from Co-workers, Parents, or a letter of recommendation from the Private school. If you have any questions feel free to message me, I look forward to hearing from you!

She was fantastic with our son from day one. Always on time, never had to remind her of anything, and genuinely cared about him. She was the best nanny we could have found for our first born boy. He still asks for her years later and we sometimes we get together. Thank you for everything Monica!

Alexandra H., Babysitter in Tarzana, CA 91356 with 15 years of paid experience

Hi families! I’m Allie — a warm, reliable, and deeply experienced caregiver with over 15+ years of supporting children and families. I’ve been caring for kids for as long as I can remember. As the oldest of four, (with my youngest sibling being 12 years younger than me) I naturally stepped into the role of helper, nurturer, and playful guide from a young age. Caring for children has always felt like second nature to me - it’s where I learned patience, intuition, and the quiet art of tuning into what a child needs...whether comfort, structure, play, or simply someone to be fully present with them. Over the years I’ve worked with children of all ages, from infants to teens, and families often describe me as calming, creative, and someone they and their kids can rely on. I love the power of imagination and play, and I genuinely enjoy getting on a child’s level - creating worlds, exploring ideas, and helping them feel safe to be themselves. Creativity is a big part of my career as well, and I find childcare to be beautifully symbiotic: kids expand my imagination just as much as I support theirs. Outside of caregiving, I’m a former corporate marketing lead, turned feminine leadership and mindset coach, so I bring emotional intelligence, grounded communication, structure, and a steady, supportive presence into every environment I enter. And as someone who hopes to have children of my own in the next few years, I take this work to heart. I treat every child with the same care, attention, and respect I’d want for my own. I can support your family with: • Part-time care (up to 25 hours/week) • Before or After-school help • Creative activities + outdoor play • Meal prep • Homework guidance • Morning and/or Bedtime routines • Light household support • School pickups/drop-offs If you’re looking for someone warm, trustworthy, and deeply committed to your children’s wellbeing, I’d love to connect and see if we’re a good fit. Looking forward to meeting your family 🤍

Hi! I'm Lexy! I have been an animal lover my whole life and have my own pet family. I enjoy spending time with other people's pets when they go on vacation or they are a little too busy. I have had dogs and cats my whole life and have about 3 years of experience working as a pet sitter! Although my main speciality is pet care for dogs and cats, I am also available to help with babysitting, household assistant tasks such as running errands, groceries, laundry, dishes, cleaning, helping with meal prep, etc., senior care such as driving to appointments, running errands, prescription pick up, keeping them company, etc. I have minimal experience working with children through my seasonal full time job as a school yearbook photographer. Although I do not have much experience working with children, I am reliable, responsible, and a quick learner. I don't drink alcohol, do drugs (including weed), and I don't smoke. I have a valid driver's license.
