I have worked for over 15 years as a babysitter and tutor in residential homes. As a babysitter and mommy assistant I have gained countless hours of experience working with children ages 1 to 7. Working with such large numbers of young children has taught me a lot about care taking. During this time I have also held mommy helper positions for families with children of all ages. I regularly babysit for a family with 4 children all under the age of 8, as well as a family with a preteen-aged children. I have also babysat for numerous other families over the past 6 years. Additionally, I have a 6-year-old and 12 year old step brothers with fetal alcohol syndrome who I have helped to take care of and babysit throughout their therapy and life. Although having such young siblings it can be exhausting at times, I love spending time with children and watching them grow up! Working with children of all ages is my passion, and I would love to assist your family and be part of such an amazing experience! I am at the end of my studies and have a year left at CSUN.

I Ain't Afraid of No .... Diaper! .....or Toddler! .....or Teenager! Bonjour Parents. My name is Karen. I am originally from Toronto, Canada and have been living in LA for 8 years now. I have been a professional, stay home mom with 3 grown, wonderful, successful teenagers. My children are bilingual in French and my eldest daughter graduated in June 2024 as Valedictorian. The teens have fledged now so I have a flexible schedule to provide occasional or part-time sitting for you. I live in Valley Village and service the San Fernando Valley. 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.

🌸My name is Alexandra and I'm interested in providing care for your family! 🌸I am transitioning out of my current childcare position so I currently I have availability on Thursdays and Fridays, am available to work November 20-30, and will be available 24-30 hours per week starting December 18. 🧡 I am loving, patient, and highly attentive to the needs of infants and know how make them feel comfortable and safe. I am proactive and attuned to when a baby needs feeding, sleep, a diaper change, a change of clothes, or a change in their environment. 🧡 I am passionate about child development and offer age-appropriate engagement and activities to stimulate their minds and help them develop healthy, secure attachments to caregivers so they can develop confidence and self-esteem. 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 simply enjoy the innocent energy of infants, babies, toddlers, children, pre-teens and teenagers. They are like precious battery chargers to me. I will care for your children/children as if they are my own. I have 40 years of sitting experience and tons of references. I recently moved to L.A. from FL, for my last employment I was with a family for 6 years until both children were school age. I stay in communication with almost all of the families over the years. Amazing to watch them grow into adults with careers. I am CPR and First Aid certified. I'm a divorced empty-nester, so my schedule is wide-open for your convenience. My 21 yr old daughter lives in the same bldg as me, which shows just how loving my maternal instincts are. I have a car and am willing to babysit up to 10 miles from Miracle Mile LA. I am also available days and/or evenings on the weekend. Please note - I have a 4 hour minimum. I am willing to travel on family vacations upon request.

Hello, Sittercity Parents! I am a childcare professional and enrichment arts educator with several years of experience in providing childcare and early childhood arts education. I have enjoyed providing childcare for UrbanSitter families for over 10 years. I am also an experienced pet sitter. I relocated to Los Angeles, CA near Larchmont Village in the summer of 2020 after residing in Chicago for nearly 20 years, where I taught music and movement arts classes during the school year. I have experience working with families who use gentle parenting and a blend of Waldorf, Reggio Emilia, and Montessori approaches in their parenting style. My ECE and responsive caregiving approach is rooted in providing children with a safe, nurturing and developmentally appropriate space to wonder and discover through guided and child-led purposeful play. I also have a host of back pocket open-ended activities that can be readily adapted to align with your child's needs and interests. Please feel free to reach out to me to discuss how I may be able to suit your childcare needs. I look forward to having the opportunity to share my love and passion for early childcare and arts education with you and your family. :) Certifications/Education: B.A. in Theater, Columbia College Chicago; 12 Early Childhood Education CR; Pediatric First Aid CPR/AED, American Heart Association; 30 Day Substitute Teaching Permit. *Up to date on Covid 19 and flu vaccinations. *I have a 3 hour babysitting minimum for nearby families (4 hour minimum for service areas over 2 miles away), and an 8 hour max for one-time and short term recurring jobs. *Cash payment is ok, but Venmo, Zelle, CashApp or credit card payments via Urbansitter.com are preferred. Cancellation Policy: My cancellation policy is case by case, as I want to be fair and sensitive to whatever seems reasonable under each cancellation circumstance. If I am able to find another job to replace the canceled job, I don't expect any compensation. Because I do turn down other work and also rely on the anticipated income earned from UrbanSitter jobs booked more than a week in advance, I typically request payment for 50% of the total hours for the cancelled booking (unless I am able to find another job to replace the cancelled job).

Hell there! My name is Andrea Soule! I grew up in Syracuse, NY with a large family consisting of four kids, four dogs, five cats, and two wonderful parents. Growing up I would volunteer my time at nursing homes around the syracuse area and my mothers classroom for children with special needs ranging from grades k-12. I am a performer with huge passion for teaching children and working with children. I have baby sat all of my life. Caring for and teaching children is my specialty. Growing up with a large family has molded me with loads of love and patience. I am the best candidate for a fun, responsible, and loving caregiver. I live in Chicago.
