A little bit about me
Hi! My name is Uhssiah, I’m responsible, patient, and very attentive when it comes to kids. I’ve babysat for family and younger children before, so I understand how important safety and trust are. I’m good at keeping kids entertained, helping with homework, preparing simple meals, and sticking to routines. I’m also very reliable and punctual, if I say I’ll be there, I’ll be there. I genuinely enjoy being around kids and making sure they feel comfortable and cared for while parents are away.

A little bit about me
Hello!
My name is Sarah, and I have close to two years of childcare experience. I'm a current linguistics major, versed in Norwegian and would be able to teach it at an elementary level if desired. I've worked with children ages 2 to 19 and am skilled in housework, clean eating meal prepping, child development, and have experience in behavioral psychology.
In my free time, I enjoy the arts, which I’ve found to be especially beneficial for engaging special needs students.
I love the outdoors and being as close to the water as possible (for painting opportunities)!
I can provide references, am willing to move anywhere to be closer to work, and can work a live-in position. I look forward to speaking with you about your child or children!

A little bit about me
I believe the foundations for true caring of others, lies in trust and compatibility. I am a strong believer that although I have experience and knowledge, true care comes from a connected place. It is very important for me to bond with a family, their values and standards. Personally, I value individuality and honor each child and their spirit.

A little bit about me
I love children and animals, I have two cats of my own who are the most loving and wonderful creatures! I love art, music and athletics, and think it's important for children to be introduced to all kinds of new experiences and opportunities to grow and discover what they love. I have worked primarily with kids who have learning and behavioral difficulties or have specialized or higher needs. I am very even-tempered and patient. I think laughter is the most important bodily function.
I am originally from Pennsylvania. I received my Bachelor of Science degree from Indiana University of Pennsylvania where I majored in communications media and minored in psychology. In college I volunteered as an algebra and calculus tutor and have continued to work sporadically as a tutor in English and mathematics over the past 12 years.
My most recent employment began with two high needs boys, 20 months and four, and just concluded over ten years later. I am eager to further discuss my experience.

Understand Babysitter Responsibilities in Los Angeles, CA
Before beginning the search for a babysitter, it’s important to understand what you’re looking for and if a babysitter is the right choice for your child care needs. There are lots of benefits to hiring a babysitter such as getting the flexibility of having some more time for yourself or with your partner. When hiring a babysitter, first, you should explore the differences between a nanny and a babysitter. If you’re looking for occasional child care, babysitters are the right choice for you, but if you’re looking for more frequent care, a nanny may be better for your needs.
From there, you can think about what you expect your babysitter to handle so that you can create a profile for nannies to reach out to you. The boundaries for babysitters’ duties can vary from family to family. However, in general, a babysitter is responsible for making sure your kids’ needs are met, including things like ensuring they have opportunities to play and be active. When tasks go beyond child care, for example to housekeeping, laundry, or meal preparation, it’s good practice to communicate these expectations with your babysitter before hiring them. Along with the different duties that you ask for, experience and location in Los Angeles can impact how much you pay your babysitter.
Los Angeles Babysitter Interviews
Once you start connecting with prospective babysitters, the next step is to conduct an interview. To make things a bit easier, here’s a list of some babysitter interview questions to consider asking:
- Do you have experience being a babysitter?
- What sort of household tasks are you open and comfortable doing?
- Do you have any references?
- Are you trained in First Aid or CPR in California?
- Do you have a California driver’s license? Do you own a car?
- How do you handle tantrums? Can you share an experience disciplining children?
During the hiring process, it’s essential to ask for references and by asking their references questions you gain a better understanding of they will fit in your family. As you get closer to hiring a nanny, be sure to run a background check to ensure your kids are in good hands. When evaluating a babysitter that you’re considering hiring, make sure you’re setting the foundation for a good relationship with your babysitter. You can do this by being clear about your expectations around babysitter responsibilities and compensation, and of course, by being friendly and welcoming!
And of course, as you learn how to hire a babysitter, Nanny Lane's nanny services are here to help you along the way.
