Find experienced babysitters in Torrance, CA

I have been a nanny/babysitter for newborns, infants, toddlers, preschool age and elementary school age children for more than a decade. I have multiple experience. I love taking car of children because they remind me of my experience raising my grandsons from birth to school age. My nanny/babysitter job started when my first grandson was born. I retired early from my role as a Payroll Analyst at UCLA Medical Center Financial Services to care for my grandsons (now 9 and 11) when they were born. For seven years, I was their primary caregiver (my daughter and son-in-law are both busy attorneys). I nurtured, played with, cared for, and educated my grandsons in every way, including taking them to enrichment activities and planning every aspect of their day. Both of my grandsons were reading by 3 years old. From potty-training , to baths, tennis practice, swimming classes, to zoo trips, to playdates and then eventually to school drop-offs, pickups and homework supervision, I did it all with great joy. It would be my pleasure to bring the same joy, kindness and care to your child(ren). I was also a full time nanny for a nine months old baby girl from April 2022 - June 2024. I have been occasionally babysitting for three families from 2021 to present. I plan the day to day activities for children in my care. Just to mention a few of the activities I do with babies in my care, I take them to the local library programs; read at least once during the day and at nap and bedtime; potty training; prepare meals and snacks; playdates; birthday parties; playground; a walk in the neighborhood. We have drawing, painting, coloring and writing activities. I plan birthday parties and attend mummy and me two hour classes with baby. (Please refer to my references for testimonies to my work on my profile). I have a Child and Baby First Aid/CPR/AED Certificate. I prioritize safety of children in my care and take the needs of the child and parents expectations seriously. I am honest, respectful, kind, gentle, caring, energetic, conscientious, loving, calm, attentive, multitasking, intelligent and punctual. I am a non-smoker and fully vaccinated. My next annual physicals is in October 2025. Thank you for reviewing my profile. I look forward to hearing from you . Effie Annor.

Hi parents, my name is Briahna! I am a full-time student at LBCC and attend classes Monday-Thursday (until June 10th). I currently nanny Monday-Wednesday for a family with a 7-year-old and a 9-year-old. In my free time, I enjoy reading, baking, watching movies, and trying new coffee shops. I also love visiting libraries, museums, bookstores, and spending time with my family. I am the oldest of four, with three younger siblings currently ages 9, 12, and 15. I have previously worked with multiple other families, both long-term and for occasional babysitting/date nights, with children ranging in age from 1 to 12 years old. I have been doing overnight babysitting for a family with a 3-year-old and almost 5-year-old since July 2024, but they will be welcoming a new baby next month, and unfortunately my availability no longer matches their scheduling needs. I love animals, and I am very comfortable around them. I have a cat and a small dog myself, and I have cared for cats and multiple breeds of dogs, all ranging in size. I have done occasional house sitting and dog walking for my current nanny family, as well as for one of my previous babysitting families when they go out of town. I have had multiple background checks, as well as a motor vehicle check run. I am also CPR/First Aid certified through the American Heart Association, and I am fully comfortable sharing copies of all documents/reports. Thank you for your consideration.
