"I wish there were more Keilan’s. His work ethic, positive attitude, team player mentality, loyalty, and honesty were just a few things that stood out to me. Working with kids he provides an extremely safe, fun, and teachable environment. I genuinely have nothing bad to say or any criticism that exudes any reason I wouldn’t hire him again. I moved out of the country and have asked if he could come with us. He respectfully declined, but will always be part of our family!"

A little bit about me
Hello! My name is Ana Sofia. I’m 29 years old and have been in the childcare industry since the age of 16, starting off as a babysitter, but nannying became my full time job at the age of 23. I’ve worked for the same family for the past 6.5 years caring for their growing family of now 4 children ranging from the youngest at 1 y/o to the oldest at 8 y/o.
I have plenty of newborn experience as I cared for 3 of the children as newborns.
I am a very patient and nurturing person and don’t shy away from caring for children with special needs. I try to keep my work space tidy, organized, yet fun and creative. Self expression and communication are extremely important to me, especially when it comes to a child’s development and the overall family dynamic. My hope is to make a parent’s life easier and help the household run as smoothly as possible.

"Ana started with us babysitting at around 16 years of age, but became our nanny right out of high school at 18. She spent two years working live-in with our family until we moved to Walnut Creek in the summer of 2014. She’s responsible, creative, loving, kind, fun spirited, and really easy to get along with. She prepared nutritions meals and snacks for the kids, helped with pickup, and laundry/light housekeeping around the house. My kids love her so much and ask about her til this day. She’s the best!"

A little bit about me
Hello, I'm Maya. I'm born and raised in Los Angeles. I have a BA in psychology and I have decades of experience caring for children. I worked over a decade at an elementary school. I have experience with children from infant through teenage years. My most recent work was caring for an infant. I worked with that family for a year until the family moved out of the country. I absolutely love working with children. Children are the future. The opportunity to care for them, and watch them blossom into who they will become, is something more special than can ever be put into words.

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.
