A little bit about me
I recently moved to LA and am looking for part time babysitting / nanny opportunities, but open to full time. I am 20 years old and a father of a two year old husky, Matthew. I grew up in MN, and discovered a passion for film which later drove me to CA. I'm a big nerd with a love for food, adventure, and laughter. I work best with kids age 3 - 10. My first experience taking care of someone was for my friend's son, Daniel, when I was about 16 (I'm also his favorite person in the world and he still calls me Uncle Dre).

A little bit about me
My name is Petronella, I am 19 years old, and I come from Norway. I have a genuine passion for working with children and have been babysitting since the age of 15. In addition, I have experience working at a primary school, which has given me valuable insight into children's needs, development, and everyday routines.
I am a caring, responsible, trustworthy, and highly dedicated person who takes pride in always doing my very best. I have extensive hands-on experience with children and understand the importance of creating a safe, loving, and positive environment where they feel happy, supported, and encouraged to grow. I am patient, attentive, reliable, and conscientious, and I take every responsibility seriously. My goal is to be someone both children and parents can feel completely comfortable and confident with. I would love the opportunity to bring my experience, warmth, and enthusiasm to a family and become a trusted, positive part of their everyday lives.

A little bit about me
Hello My name is Deserie and I am fairly new to the LA area. I’m originally from Massachusetts, and yes I am definitely excited to be away from the cold. I come from a close knit family where assisting in the care of all younger family members was a sometimes protested requirement, but it has made caring for children something I’ve grown to be really excited and passionate about. I have seven years of direct care with a now young man who I spent 5 years babysitting and two years as a live in. I have expert organizational skills, time management, and a flare for fun. I can certainly assist in creating a reliable, excitable, stable, and caring environment for your child and/or children. I would prefer full time hours, but I am open to part time hours with proper incentive!
