Hi!

I also am currently working in Class 1 at Heritage Montessori in Lake Forest. I'm deeply passionate about fostering creativity, providing a nurturing environment, and supporting the holistic well-being of the children I care for.

Irati 1 review
$35 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m Irati! I’m a 3rd grade teacher and I absolutely love working with kids. I’m originally from Spain and I’m currently living and teaching in California. I’m bilingual in English and Spanish. I have a lot of experience with children in different settings. I’ve worked as a teacher, an au pair, a summer camp counselor, and a lifeguard. I also grew up surrounded by kids and have 10 nieces and nephews (my cousins’ children) who I’ve helped take care of since they were little. They are now between 3 and 16 years old, so I’m very comfortable with different ages and stages! Being a teacher has also taught me to be patient, responsible, organized, and attentive to each child’s individual needs. I’m comfortable helping with homework, reading, crafts, games, outdoor activities, meals, bedtime routines, and keeping kids engaged and having fun. I’m also very used to handling different personalities and situations calmly. I’m a caring and easygoing person, but I also understand the importance of routines, boundaries, and safety. As a former lifeguard, safety has always been especially important to me. My goal is for children to feel comfortable, happy, and cared for while their parents are away. I’d love the opportunity to get to know your family and be someone you can trust and rely on!

“Irati is very energetic and quickly took the attention of my daughters. Through play, she was able to make the connection so we could leave the house feeling she had it under her control. My eldest daughter had a great time playing with her, and the younger was well nourished. She's very attentive, at the same time she was able to run the routine schedule on time, quite an achievement at our place.”

Olivia $28 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Olivia and I am 20 years old. I have lived in San Francisco my entire life and I attended Convent Elementary school and St. Ignatius High School. I currently attend the University of Texas where I study Finance and am on the division 1 rowing team. I am home for the summer and I am looking for some families to help out! During Covid 19, I took on a large mothers helper role for 4 girls (aged 1,3,5,7) and absolutely loved it. I love kids and am a fun, energetic, warm, and very type A/responsible person. Also, I have played almost ever sport, so I love throwing the baseball or kicking the soccer ball with young kids. I had a small baking business when I was in middle school so I still love to bake and cook if that is helpful in anyway. I have been babysitting all ages of kids on and off ever since I was 13 years old and have built many strong and trustworthy relationships with families that I have helped. I have had Golden Retrievers my whole life, so I am also great with dogs. I also have had my drivers license for 4 years and have taken a CPR certification course. Overall, I always have a great time when I babysit, and I would love the opportunity to babysit more families!

Edith $30 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Edith, and I’m a mom of three children (ages 6, 4, and 1). I’m offering child care, senior care, and pet care. I love working with children and have hands-on experience caring for newborns, infants, toddlers, and school-aged kids through raising my own children and supporting other families. My experience includes feeding, diapering, naps, school routines, homework help, and engaging kids in reading, crafts, painting, dancing, and imaginative play. I encourage and uplift kids so they feel confident in who they are and what they love. I also have experience providing companion care for seniors, including helping with daily routines, meal preparation, errands, and offering meaningful companionship. I’m patient, attentive, and respectful, and I enjoy building genuine connections. In addition, I’m comfortable caring for dogs and cats of various sizes and temperaments. I can help with feeding, walking, playtime, and following specific care instructions. I’m comfortable with larger pets and those that shed.

Tammy $26 per hour for 1 child

Hi, my name is Tammy! I'm a recent college grad from USC who just finished serving as an AmeriCorps and am currently applying to medical school. I'm looking to pick up some work while figuring out my next steps. I am great with people of all ages and backgrounds (my AmeriCorps role involved clinical care for adults and seniors, but I used to volunteer as a tutor for K-12 kids) and am an easygoing, chill person who is responsible and has Basic Life Support (BLS) training, which includes CPR. I am happy to watch older kids (5+), run household errands and help out with household chores. I'm also happy to catsit. Feel free to reach out with any questions!
