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.

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 🤍
