Hello and Bonjour! My name is Natasha Laffoux, and I love being a sitter/tutor because I truly enjoy creating a fun, safe, and engaging environment for kids. As a responsible big sister, I know how important it is for children to have positive role models in their lives. I grew up in Toronto, Canada with two younger siblings, and we moved to Los Angeles eight years ago. It was a big change, but it shaped who I am today. I graduated as Valedictorian from the Lila International School of Los Angeles in 2024, earned high honors on my French Baccalaureate, and I’m now a sophomore at CSUN—on the Dean’s List! I’m bilingual in French and speak some Spanish ;) I love that I can be both academically focused and totally silly. It’s a great balance when working with kids. Whether I’m helping with homework, playing games, or just being a Read more positive presence, I enjoy building real connections. I’ve been working with kids for years, first with my own siblings, then started tutoring at Lila in 2022, and now working with OneCall Tutors in French. I’ve supported students of different ages with schoolwork, structured activities, and general care. I’m known for being patient, kind, and a great communicator. I am CPR certified, conscientious, and follow family routines and guidelines. I hold a CA Real ID driver's license and have my own car. I've been driving for two years, and take punctuality seriously. On the fun side, I’m a competitive figure skater! I’ve won solo events and spent the last four years as part of the Pasadena Rose City Crystal's synchronized team, which took 1st place at 2024/25 Sectionals. Now, I’m skating with my brother as a pair. I hope you’ll consider me as an occasional sitter. I love meeting new families and would be happy to bring a mix of fun, support, and reliability to your child(ren). Merci! – Natasha

We’ve had the pleasure of working with Natasha on five separate occasions, each for about four hours, to care for our 4-year-old. She was punctual, easy to communicate with, and attentive to our child’s needs and interests whether it was trips to the park, lots of basketball or indoor games, or learning some basic French in preparation for starting French Kindergarten. We would (and likely will) work with Natasha again in the future.
