A little bit about me
Hello, my name is Amasia! To tell you a bit about myself, I recently moved to LA after graduating with my degree from New York City spring 2021 and am currently living in Central LA. I’m a huge people person as well as enjoying helping and inspiring those around me. I also love working with children, as I have nannied for two families in the last 3 years throughout my college experience in New York and post graduation on the west coast. Currently I am available full time, I have a reliable car, and am very flexible with my schedule! I am out of town now but I am able to begin as early as November 27th! My go-to sitter activities are usually painting, drawing, coloring, baking, biking, playing outdoor activities or card games! I absolutely don’t mind cooking for the children and making snacks and baked goods throughout the day, and helping with keeping them on track with a schedule of events and homework!

A little bit about me
I am a 48 year old empty nester. I have 2 grown children I raised as a single mother (boy 25, girl 21 now). I really like kids. I'm an artist, I paint a lot. I graduated from Pepperdine University with early childhood education credits, a Liberal Arts degree with a minor in Fine Arts.
Please note: one determinate factor about me: I was born with a rare "cat" eye condition that makes it confusing for me to judge fast motion and lights-- so to stay safe
I don't drive.
This would mean of course I cannot take any job that requires driving. Also I would need the job to be nearby, either walkable or Uber-affordable. :) I was able to raise my children in San Diego without a car, (we walked a lot!) but I realize that's not so do-able in Los Angeles, especially if you require daily children trips.
I have taken Red Cross First Aid CPR courses.
I am fully vaccinated.

A little bit about me
Hi I’m Gail! I’ve been a care taker for over 8 years, starting with just family and moving on to schools and now families. All this experience influenced my love for early childhood education, watching kids grow, and my desire to help families when needed. I started off babysitting for family and neighbors then moved to working at school with children of elementary and middle school. I then decided to do daycare and tried that out for 2 years until deciding one on one is probably better. I have had experience with all age groups but elementary and toddlers have my heart. I have been a nanny for 3 years to two different families with both boys from ages 1-4. Working with different families makes it easier to understand a families needs and duties of the house. I am also in school to get my bachelors in elementary education to become a kindergarten teacher, but all of that is done on my free time online. If you feel I am fit please don’t hesitate to reach out. Thank you!

A little bit about me
Hi! My name is Bridget, and I recently graduated from Loyola Marymount University with a degree in Communication and a minor in Psychology. I'm currently completing my pre requisites for nursing school, with the hope of becoming a registered nurse in a pediatric unit. I also just received my Certified Nursing Assistant license, and plan to work as a CNA during my spring semester. As of now, I am looking for a babysitting job that works with my class schedule.
I’ve always loved working with kids and naturally gravitate toward caregiving roles. I grew up as a competitive cheerleader and coached kids at my cheer gym, which taught me patience, leadership, and how to create a fun and supportive environment. I also have some babysitting experience, as well as taking care of my 3-year-old nephew.
I would describe myself as dependable, caring, and patient. I enjoy building connections with children, whether through crafts, outdoor activities, or simply being a positive and supportive presence.

A little bit about me
I am of Latin descent and have lived in Los Angeles for over 20 years. My path began as a Full Child Nanny, an experience that opened the way to a meaningful career supporting children and their families. With time, I had the privilege of working with both high-profile families and many others, each one teaching me something valuable and inspiring me to continue growing. This journey led me to study and become a Postpartum Doula and Newborn Care Specialist, roles that allow me to guide and support new parents through the beautiful transition of welcoming their baby.
Beyond my work, I enjoy traveling, reading, caring for animals, and embracing every new experience as an opportunity to keep learning. Each family I’ve supported has contributed to the wisdom I carry today, and I feel grateful to continue sharing that guidance and care with new parents and future generations.
