Greetings! My name is Alyson Hills and I am an experienced caregiver and lover of pets and children! I am 25 years old and currently working a part-time, work from home, forms building position and looking to supplement my income post-grad as I prepare to begin my teaching career next fall. I am originally from the Bay Area, California where I completed my K-12 education. After high school graduation I followed my long-found passion for education up North to California State University, Chico where I obtained by Bachelor's degree in Liberal Studies with a minor in Child Development. I have since moved South in search of the ocean and in pursuit of a Master's degree in Education and Multiple Subject teaching credential from Pepperdine GSEP. Excitedly, I completed my program in August! Unfortunately, post-hiring season. Although I am looking forward to becoming an elementary school teacher soon enough, I am most focused on using my education in my daily life- however that may be for now. I am well equipped with teaching methods, instructional strategies, and behavior management techniques necessary both inside and outside the classroom. Your comfort, as well as your child's comfort and safety, is my utmost concern while they are within my care. I pride myself on my creative lesson planning (activities), nurturing demeanor, and clear communication skills with both children and their families. I have over 10 years of professional childcare experience working within theater facilities, preschools, daycare programs, after school/summer camps. My most recent experience with children was over 600 hours of student teaching in a Kindergarten classroom within IUSD. I also have several experiences working as a full-time private nanny for an individual baby/toddler. For these positions I was tasked with supervising and entertaining, feeding and changing, taking the child to the park or music class, nap time and bath time, light laundry/dishes/housework and so on. I am comfortable with the typical nanny/sitter duties! In my personal time I enjoy spending as much time as I can on the beach, doing almost any kind of arts and craft (specifically building fairy houses, a sacred hobby of mine), and caring for my 5 year old Maltipoo, Bailey! I characterize myself as a creative, supportive, and reliable childcare provider- please let me know if I sound like a fit for your family or if you know of a family looking for childcare services! All the best, Aly

Hi! My name is Alyssa, and I’m a Licensed Vocational Nurse (LVN) with over a year of hands-on experience in healthcare. I’ve always had a passion for working with children, which began during high school when I worked at a family daycare in Los Angeles. In college, I continued nurturing that passion at Mount Saint Mary’s Child Development Center, where I served as a teacher’s assistant for two years and often led the class. I’ve cared for children of all ages—from infants to 18 years old—and love creating fun, safe, and engaging activities to keep them learning and entertained. I’m not afraid to get a little messy with crafts or imaginative play, and I take pride in building meaningful bonds with every child I work with. While I’m currently taking a step back from full-time nursing to focus on what brings me joy, my background as a nurse allows me to provide a heightened level of care, attention, and safety when it comes to childcare. I’m fully vaccinated (since May 2021) and remain committed to providing a nurturing, healthy environment for your little ones. Pediatrics is my true calling, and I do plan to return to school in the near future to pursue my RN degree. In the meantime, I’d love the opportunity to support families through babysitting and part-time childcare. I look forward to meeting your family and bringing my heart, experience, and nursing skills into your home!

A bit about me: I have been a professional nanny for 6+ years. I have cared for children since I was a teenager, and I'd say it's my passion. I am currently caring for two children in Manhattan Beach. A toddler and a 5 month old. My time with the family is coming to an end as both children will be placed in daycare. I have plenty of experience with all ages, most in ages 0-5. I am vaccinated, cpr/ first aid certified, and trustline registered. Clean driving record. I am located in Torrance. My goal is to pick up where you leave off. I can do child related cleanup, laundry, dishes, meal prep, etc. I'm comfortable with drop offs and pick ups, daily outings to the park/aquarium/library/etc. I will make sure that your child is occupied with age appropriate and developmentally appropriate activities.

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!

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!
