Hi L. :)
I just moved to Los Angeles (Hollywood) this past August. I am 23 and just graduated from Louisiana State University, where I was a Pi Phi and honor graduate. I currently have a marketing coordinator job in Beverly Hills from 8 to 5, but am open to maybe doing some babysitting on the side! :) I can tell you more about myself through e-mail if you like. Feel free to shoot me an e-mail at ____@____.com. I have babysat since I was 15 years old (was also a daytime nanny the summer before I moved here), so I am very experienced and also caring. Also, my roommate is from Louisiana too and is also open to babysitting. Just shoot me an e-mail and I'd be more than happy to get back to you!
Sincerely,
K. N.

Try your local high school. Or a local girl scouts troop, that's where I found one of mine. I know our city's dept of parks and recreation offers a babysitting course. If yours does the same they may be able to help you connect with one of the teens.
I've been scrapbooking for 20 years now. Started when my oldest was 1. Would love to connect.

I would recommend joining a MOMS group (depending on what area you live in - just google MOMS groups of Southern California) - they are big on starting activities and scrap booking would certainly fall into that category. You could also find a reliable babysitter that way. Also, to find a babysitter try the online group PEACHHEAD.

believe it or not but I've found a few really great sitters on the craigslist. I placed the ad, did extensive interviews, plus research and background checks. It worked out for me. Good luck!
