Hello my name is Arianna & I am a child development graduate from CSULA. I have experience working with elementary, middle, and high school students primarily in school settings. I’ve worked for after school programming and provided enrichment activities and tutoring. I’m interested in babysitting even though I’ve had no experience. However, being in schools feels very much like it. Thank you for the opportunity!

Cameron 2 reviews
$30 per hour for 1 child

Hi there! I’m Cameron: a native Angeleno, University of New Orleans graduate, part-time screenwriter, and personal assistant/caregiver who truly loves helping folks (and their furry friends) feel seen and supported. I have years of experience dog-sitting pups of all temperaments, energy levels, and special medical/behavioral needs. No two doggos are the same and I take pride in adapting to each one’s unique routine. I also absolutely love animals so taking care of them is a win-win on all fronts. While I used to sit my little cousins, I recently became a godfather and now have experience babysitting the littlest of babies, too, meaning I’m comfortable caring for kids of all ages with patience, structure, and a sense of fun. I do weekly in-home care for individuals with disabilities, which has taught me the importance of empathy, patience, and clear communication. Like I mentioned earlier, I'm also a trained personal assistant backed by years working in a high-intensity, high-demand TV show writers' room. In addition to the usual household assistant duties, I excel at managing schedules, arranging travel, running errands, and keeping spaces tidy and organized (thank you, diagnosed OCD). I can cook (quite well), clean, problem-solve with the best of them, and am lucky to have built up a long list of happy clients who would be even happier to vouch for me! Have any questions or need a bit more info? Don’t hesitate to reach out!

ā€œSimply put, you will never find a more responsible human than Cameron. I've worked with him multiple times, and he has never failed to meet my exacting standards. He's reliable, professional, and also a truly kind human being. He's taken amazing care of our two dogs and our house on multiple occasions and always leave your abode spotless. Truly, you'll be lucky to get to work with him.ā€

Cynthia 1 review
$20 per hour for 1 child

I’m Cynthia, and I’ve worked with kids for years in both creative and educational settings. I’ve taught acting and directed youth theater programs, so I’m very comfortable keeping kids engaged, entertained, and supported in a structured but fun way. I’m responsible, patient, and great at balancing playtime with safety and routines. I’m also CPR trained, experienced with different age groups, and confident handling everything from homework help to bedtime routines. I genuinely enjoy being around kids and creating an environment where they feel safe, heard, and excited to learn and play. I’d love to help out and make things easier for your family.

ā€œCynthia is a great babysitter to my 10- and 13-year-old! She drives, cooks, helps with bedtime routines and a lot more. She cares deeply about my kids' well-being and is highly responsible. She is very attentive to our needs while also bringing her own, fun personality to the job. Always eager to go above and beyond, Cynthia has become a great addition to our family.ā€
