Looking for work as a babysitter or nanny

  • Babysitter in Los Angeles, CA 90006

Meet Arlene

  • Certified Nursing Assistant
  • Speaks Spanish
  • Comfortable with pets
  • Has a car

Hi! I’m Arlene, although most of the children I care for know me as Leni. What makes my childcare experience a little unique is my background in veterinary nursing, which has given me a strong level of preparedness, medical awareness, and confidence when handling situations that require extra care or attention. I feel that experience has significantly supported my work throughout the past 6 years of part-time childcare. I have experience caring for infants through 12-year-olds, including nanny shares, siblings, and multiples. I’m bilingual in English and Spanish, CPR certified, and background checked. I enjoy keeping children active and engaged through outdoor play, reading, crafts, library visits, educational outings, museums, and activities centered around history and learning. I aim to create a safe, dependable, and nurturing environment where children can have fun, explore, and feel comfortable in my care.

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