Lupita has been such an incredible part of our family for nearly two years, and it is hard to put into words how much she means to us. She has cared for my oldest son since he was just 10 months old and has loved my youngest from the very day he was born. She has a true gift with children. Every day she finds creative, engaging ways to keep them learning and having fun, from thoughtful crafts to educational activities that spark their curiosity. My boys absolutely adore her. Their faces light up with excitement every morning when she walks through the door, and that says everything about the love and care she gives them. Lupita is incredibly dependable, trustworthy, and always punctual. Knowing my children were with her gave me complete peace of mind. She has loved and cared for my boys as if they were her own, and we will miss her more than words can express.

Hello I’m Arlena I’m 32 I work part time as a veterinary nurse I’m a Los Angeles native. I’m bilingual in Spanish. I’m passionate about books and education and feel that it’s important to impart this for children, but also enhance what makes them unique and what intrigues them individually.

Good communicator, and super friendly to the children. You know they've had a good time when they want to hug their sitter goodbye :)

Lyle O., Nanny in Altadena, CA 91001 with 5 years of paid experience

Hello! My name is Lyle and I can't wait to meet you! I have nannied young infants as early as 3 months and have worked as a preschool teacher for ages 2-4 years. My primary form of work is in dance and yoga so I have a big love of movement and the arts! When babysitting I enjoy taking children outdoors to run around, creating indoor crafts, as well as homework help and more. I see myself as more than just a “sitter” but a true lending hand in the upbringing of your children, so please feel free to ask me as many questions as you wish. *I also have experience watching children with T1 and other physical/mental specialties.

Lyle was extremely responsive, professional, punctual, and our daughter had a great time with her! However, her rates are a little too high for us to use as consistently as we’d like.

Bertha S., Nanny in Altadena, CA 91001 with 4 years of paid experience

Hi! My name is Bertha Sanchez, I’m currently a nursing student at Fullerton with ambitions of becoming a RN Pediatric Nurse. I love kids and want to provide better care for kids of all backgrounds with care and understanding. I’m offering child care and light household services while kids are asleep. I love all animals, personally I have 2 cats and 1dog. I love being a babysitter, I’ve been watching babies and toddlers since I was 15! I enjoy activities with kids like coloring, playing outside, reading and singing. With infants I love to put on music, and talking to them is essential for their development as well as plenty of love and attention. I’m always up for a challenge and to try new things! As of now I’m a pharmacy technician and a CNA(certified nursing assistant) although I’m still furthering my nursing career. -Basic Life Support provider certified through the American Heart Association -Hospital Fire and Life Safety certified through SureFire -CPR certified through SureFire

Bertha watched our 6 week old for 3 days, about 6hr each day. She was easy to communicate with. The most responsive person I have worked with. She is thorough and thoughtful. She is clearly very bright and has a great future ahead of her.

We were very happy to find Kiera! She came for a meet & greet and our 2 young kids were immediately drawn to her. We are looking for some occasional help for date nights and school breaks for our oldest. She's been very quick to respond and easy to schedule with. She is very kind and easy going and the kids had a great time with her. Our youngest can sometimes be difficult to warm up to new people and have a hard time when I leave but she enjoyed her time with Kiera and both kids have asked for her to come back. We look forward to seeing her again, it's nice to have people that your kids are happy to spend time with!

Jeanine S., Nanny in Altadena, CA 91001 with 10 years of paid experience

I have 10 years of experience working with children, ranging from infants as young as one week to young adults up to 20. For 7 years, I worked in a daycare setting, where I gained valuable hands-on experience in managing multiple children and fostering their problem-solving skills. Currently, I have been working in Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) for the past 3 years providing direct support to children on the autism spectrum and those with behavioral disorders. In addition to my professional background, I have personal experience as the oldest of five siblings, which has further enriched my understanding of child development and care. Children are my passion, and I believe that investing in their growth is vital for our future. My goal is to support children and their families in any way I can. Please note that my hourly rate will not change based on how many children you have. Hourly rate can also be negotiated for long term opportunities.

We've been fortunate to have her as our babysitter for the past nine months, and she has been nothing short of amazing with our family. She has cared for our 4-year-old, 9-year-old, and 10-year-old, and from day one she has shown an incredible amount of patience, kindness, and genuine care. Our two sons are autistic, and she has consistently met them with compassion, understanding, and unwavering support. She has built meaningful relationships with them in a way that I've honestly never seen another babysitter do. She takes the time to understand each child's unique needs, communicates with them respectfully, and has even helped us as parents learn new ways to better support and connect with our boys. One of the things we appreciate most is how intentional she is about making sure all three of our children feel included. She creates activities that everyone can participate in, encourages teamwork, and helps each child feel valued. She also empowers our kids to advocate for themselves, develop confidence, and practice important life skills in age-appropriate ways. Knowing our children are in her care gives us complete peace of mind. She is dependable, knowledgeable, nurturing, and truly invested in the well-being of the children she works with. We are incredibly grateful for everything she has done for our family, and I wholeheartedly recommend her to any family looking for an exceptional babysitter. She would be an amazing addition to any home.

Hello, my name is Kuei Mei Chen (I go by Carol Chen). A little about me: I moved here from Taiwan in 1998, and I have five years of experience working as a nanny/caregiver, 3 of which includes experience caring for an infant. I truly enjoy caring for young children. Accompanying them as they grow, watching them from crawling to learning how to walk, to guiding them in discovering the world around them and helping them learn to communicate and speak, I deeply enjoy every part of the process.
