Rowan Pasadena
$22 per hour for 1 child

Hi there! I’m Rowan, and I’ve been working with kids for the past 10 years. I mostly have experience with kids 5-11 years old, but can work outside of that range as well. For animal care, I grew up with animals, and have fostered multiple times since 2020. Recently I have been volunteering with a local rescue. Children and animals see the world through different eyes, and are always a great reminder of what’s important in life. Working with kids and animals reminds me to be my best self and we get to create a wonderful adventure together along the way! I’m currently a music student at PCC, and love anything to do with art, science and animals. I’m passionate about books, films, music, video games and travel!

Pasadena
$25 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Monrovia, CA

Hi! My name is Brenda. I absolutely love working with children and creating supportive, engaging, and meaningful experiences for them. I’ve been babysitting since I was 12 years old and have had the joy of caring for some of the same children all the way through their high school years. Building real relationships with families and watching kids grow has been one of the most rewarding parts of my journey. I currently babysit for a wonderful family of three children ages 6, 9, and 12, where I support with dinner, evening routines like reading together, and fun outdoor adventures including hiking and exploring nature. I also occasionally take two girls on cultural and educational excursions around the city, helping them learn through experiences, curiosity, and discovery. I hold a degree in World Arts and Cultures from UCLA, which allows me to bring creativity, storytelling, movement, and arts activities into the time I spend with kids. I value imagination, kindness, learning, and creating an uplifting environment where kids feel safe and supported. For families with teens, I’m also happy to support with college preparation, including guidance on admissions written statements and helping students express their stories and strengths confidently as my professional training centers around supporting students. I’m reliable, patient, nurturing, and genuinely enjoy being part of a child’s world. I would love to support your family, too!

Brenda helped me with an apartment cleaning job - she was on time and very thorough, and she always had a smile on her face. She's great!
