Jorden Long Beach
$18 per hour for 1 child

I’m Jorden! A well seasoned nanny. I have over 10 years paid experience. I’ve worked for LBUSD and Long Beach Parks and Recreation. I also volunteer with my former high school often. When it comes to my childcare career, I have consistently worked for a family with 5 year old twin girls. I have been with them since they were 10 months old. I am no stranger to picking up or dropping off at practice or school. I often sit for other families as well. Most of which have kids at the Belmont Shore KinderCare, Fremont Elementary, Naples Elementary, and Rogers Middle School. I have tons of experience working with children of all ages, as well as working with multiples. I am open to working 10+ hours and overnights. My schedule is extremely flexible and I am also very reliable. I am CPR and first aid certified.

Presley Los Angeles
$20 per hour for 1 child

Hello! My name is Presley and I am a recent UCLA graduate! I am happy to offer services in child care, pet care, and household care. Although I had no choice, I have been a babysitter since the age of 3, when my parents brought my little brother home from the hospital. In the twenty years since, I have babysat for children between the ages of 4 and 11. As a high schooler, I tutored neighborhood kids in math and literature. I am confident that I can sufficiently assist in math homework through Algebra II. Beyond the scope of caring for human children, I have grown up with both dogs and cats and volunteered at the local Animal Shelter. I am more than happy to clean up after dogs or cats, take dogs for walks, and give them lots of love. I am extremely tidy, organized, and willing to do any chores around the house. Moreover, I can run errands and transport children or pets via car. As a whole, I consider myself to be a warm, enthusiastic, and committed person who gets along swimmingly with any living being, child, adult, or pet :)
