Find experienced child care providers in La Palma, CA

I decided to get into babysitting because I love being around kids and it was also a good way to pass time. I have babysat for various families within my neighborhood and I have also worked with children via a Teaching Assistant position at an elementary school as well. I’ve been babysitting since I was 16 years old and I am now 24. I have babysat children from 8 months old to 14 years old. I would take care of a variety of tasks such as picking up from school/after school programs, taking out to parks or various other places, making dinner, helping with shower/bath time, reading, and getting into bed. I also have a lot of newborn experience because I regularly take care of my nephew who is less than a year old, and have been helping take care of him since he was born. I have a clean driving record and am fluent in English. I’m more than happy to call to talk and see if we are a good fit. I look forward to being able to care for your child!

Hello! Please note - I do not have availability for recurring daytime work. Only able to help with one-time/sporadic date nights and some weekend sitting. I have been continuously babysitting for 25+years! I started young - that's what happens when you grow up with 7 brothers. Busy households are nothing new to me. I am experienced with children ages newborn through teen-aged, have spent years working for the same families, and have been a live-in nanny. I have done overnights, extended stays, and traveled with families. I also student-taught and completed all requirements for an elementary teaching certification from Wellesley College, which enhances my perspective on children, their learning/emotional needs, and how to best care for them in a variety of settings. If you would like details on specific jobs or experiences, please don't hesitate to ask. I love providing great care and helping parents feel at ease when they leave their children with me.

I have experience mostly with 1-3 year olds but have also have experience with older kids. I also have been a designated homeschool teacher for a whole school year, so homework help and tutoring is not a problem. I am comfortable with small children the youngest I cared for has been 9 months and my goal is always for them to be entertained, be taken care of,and to be safe. I gladly stick to any rules parents set with their children and understand when a parent trusts me with their kids it’s a huge deal so I take care of them like if they were my own.

Hello! I am fully vaccinated, have reliable transportation for myself and have well over a decade of childcare experience. I’m looking for work occasionally on semi weekly or monthly basis for a family of 1-3 children (for a rate of $22-35/hr). Growing up in a large family has helped me develop a skill-set that makes me an ideal babysitter candidate. I am the eldest of 7 children and helped care for my younger siblings beginning at 11 years-old. My relevant experience caring for infants began with the birth of my youngest sister when I was thirteen. Based off of my volunteer work with elementary school children in the classroom, and my recent 6+ years of experience babysitting children ranging from ages 6-month to 11, I can confidently look after and facilitate activities for children, do basic housekeeping/cooking/mealprep tasks as needed, and assist with homework or other formative learning experiences. I have assisted kids through potty-training, and bedtime routines. Since 2021, I have been babysitting on a semi weekly / as-needed basis for families in Orange County. Activities I value: reading/storytelling, listening to music, dance/movement, creating art (ex. drawing, painting, clay sculpting, etc), building/creating with objects (ex. building track routes, block structures, lego sets, playdoh, kinetic sand, etc), learning and playing board games (or other well-known games), and imaginary play. As an enthusiastic caretaker, I have proven that I am willing to be present to the task at hand. Overall, I am an articulate and responsible individual who will be a respectful guest in any family home and will value the opportunity to form a bond with your child(ren)!

Hello I'm Camilla, I am someone who deeply cares for infants and prioritize safety and well being, especially for first time parents. I help parents prepare safe, baby ready homes and recommend essential products and developmental toys. I am very conscious about maintaining proper hygiene before caring for infants and always wash my hands thoroughly. I understand how important it is for parents to feel confident in their baby’s safety. so I take every precaution to ensure a clean and nurturing environment. With a background in nursing and music, my nurturing embraces children as early as infancy through singing and imaginative play. It is incredibly rewarding to see delicate expressions of comfort when babies recognize my songs, then hear toddlers singing my songs to becoming fully engaged when I read to them. In my spare time, I channel my creativity into writing stories, composing songs that support developmental milestones, and creating educational videos for children. Music is just one of my supportive tools to soothe and stimulate infants as well as help toddlers and young children navigate challenges like understanding boundaries, learning new skills, and facing moments of frustration. I focus on building safety awareness, self esteem, and independence whether through songs that make clean up time fun or original music that encourages them not to give up when something feels hard. By including children’s individual interests, it allows me to build a stronger connection and relationship and spark curiosity. I am confident in providing homework support and engaging children in creative arts activities. I bring a strong work ethic and can be counted on to be both reliable and dedicated. I studied Music at UCLA and bring both creativity and energy to my work with children of all ages through music. I have a true passion for teaching. After earning my Associate’s degree, I began working toward my Bachelor’s degree, building on a background that includes Music Therapy and Occupational Therapy. CPR certified and first aid certified. I stay up to date on flu shots and vaccinations. As someone who enjoys healthy eating, I’ve learned that even with fussy eaters, healthy habits can still be encouraged by turning new foods into something fun to try. I am available for both full time and part time caregiving roles, including as a mother’s helper and date nights. I am comfortable with pets and have energy to keep up with growing little ones!
