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.
