General: Hi! My name is Ella, and I’m a high school student in the South Bay area! I’m the oldest sibling in my family and have spent years helping care for younger siblings, cousins, and family friends (especially newborns and elementary-aged kids). My family jokingly calls me "momma number two" because I naturally take on a caring and responsible role with younger children! I’m very outgoing, patient, and creative, and I genuinely love spending time with kids. I’m involved in ASB at my school, work as a peer tutor, and serve as a conflict mediator on campus, which has taught me leadership, communication, patience, and how to handle situations calmly and respectfully. I also own a small baking business and love creative activities like baking, crafts, hair braiding, games, and helping with homework. I always try to create a fun, safe, and comforting environment for children while still being responsible and dependable. Child Care: I have experience caring for children of many different ages, especially newborns, toddlers, elementary-aged children, and younger siblings/cousins. Since I’m the oldest sibling, I’ve naturally taken on a leadership and caregiving role for most of my life! I’m especially comfortable with younger kids because I enjoy being interactive and engaging with them. In middle school, I even created a little “school” setup at home for my younger siblings where I would help teach them and plan activities. I love helping children learn, feel included, and have fun in a positive environment! One thing that is especially important to me when caring for children is safety. I naturally tend to be very cautious, attentive, and aware of my surroundings, especially when younger kids are involved. Whether it’s supervising outdoor activities, staying alert around water, or making sure children are playing safely, I always prioritize creating a secure environment while still keeping things fun. I’m al Special Skills/Talents: Some of my special skills include tutoring and homework help, baking, creative activities, hair braiding, and working well with children who need patience or emotional support. Because I’m a conflict mediator at school, I’m also very good at staying calm, listening carefully, and handling disagreements fairly and respectfully. I’m naturally very nurturing and comforting, but I’m also energetic and fun. I love making kids laugh and helping them feel safe, included, and happy. I'm not afraid to make a fool out of myself!

Hello, I'm Shannan, an artistpreneuer, here to help you relieve any scheduling pressure. I was a reading interventionist for 5 years for Marietta School System in Atlanta. I've also remotely tutored elementary age students with Reading Partners LA . If your child needs help reading, I'd love to get them on their reading level. During my busy season, I facilitate youth workshops for churches, schools and youth programs to show them the importance of being a servant leader. I was a caretaker for about 2 years as a companion for Seniors doing private duty care. My heart is soft for elders and children. Kindness is what I lead with so I'm dependable and patient. I am a humble servant leader. Careful. I value respect. Transparency, cleanliness, honesty and integrity are traits of my "ideal" clients' family. While I don't have any children of my own, I love the 13 neices and nephews I've been blessed with. Your loved one will be in good hands with me. I love music and marketing. Occasionally, I produce poetry events and I like watching documentaries on PBS. Im a life learner. I love the Lord and I work for him. Hoping to hear from you soon! Shannan

Hi! I'm Lesley. I have experience caring for children of various ages and have had the opportunity to work with many wonderful families over the years, including several repeat families. I enjoy building positive relationships with both children and parents and creating a safe, fun, and supportive environment where kids can feel comfortable and engaged. Over the past several years, I've built a professional career in business and operations, which has strengthened my organization, communication, problem-solving, and responsibility skills. I bring those same qualities to every family I work with and pride myself on being dependable, patient, and attentive. I especially enjoy spending quality time with children through games, crafts, outdoor activities, reading, and helping with homework or daily routines.

Hello, my name is Crystal. I’m 31 years old and earned my B.A. in Child Development and Family Studies from CSULB in 2018. I recently received my Multiple Subject Teaching Credential and am excited to continue growing in the field of education. I have always had a passion for working with children and began babysitting at 15 years old, caring for my younger sibling and cousins. Throughout high school, I volunteered in after-school programs where I worked with elementary-aged children, helping them complete homework and build strong study skills. After graduating, I worked as a program leader, managing a class of about 20 children. My responsibilities included planning engaging activities, ensuring safety, serving snacks, collaborating with families and staff, and creating a fun, nurturing, and structured environment. I also have experience as an elementary tutor and a full-time preschool teacher, where I built strong relationships with families and provided additional babysitting support when needed. During COVID, I worked as a full-time nanny for multiple families until 2023. Since January 2023, I have been working as a substitute teacher while continuing my education. I would describe myself as nurturing, kind, patient, and dependable. I truly enjoy being part of a child’s growth, helping them learn, supporting their needs, and creating a safe, positive, and fun environment. I am currently available for summer babysitting from June through mid-August and am open to part-time or full-time opportunities during that time. I would love the opportunity to support your family and provide attentive, caring, and enriching care for your children!
