Hi everyone I’m Jocelyn is look forward to offering my services of child care, household services if needed as well as pet care. I’m the oldest of four siblings, and growing up caring for my brothers and sisters taught me patience, responsibility, and how rewarding it is to support children as they grow. I have experience with children of all ages whether that is an infant, toddler, or kid. I’ve also helped care for my younger cousins which has also helped me gain experience with kids of different ages and personalities. I truly love children and have a soft spot for them. I think children are very smart and curious, and just need patience, understanding, and someone open minded to guide them and listen. I also worked at a kids club in a gym, where I cared for multiple children at once. This taught me how to manage groups safely, keep them engaged, and ensure each child felt seen and supported. Along with my experience with children, I’ve grown up around animals. My family had three dogs and a cat, so I’m very familiar with caring for pets and understand how loving and important they are in a family. I enjoy spending time with animals, giving them attention, and making sure they feel safe and happy. I’m a caring, gentle, and dependable person who treats others like my own family. I take pride in creating a safe, nurturing, and positive environment, whether helping with homework, planning little fun activities, or looking after pets. I’m excited to meet your family and provide the support and care that you may need.

Hi. My name is Jaki and I'm living in Rancho Cucamonga. I am offering child care. I love being a babysitter and spend time with kids. I have been watching infants, toddlers, and kids (including triplets) since I was almost 20 years old. I have experience caring for children and creating a safe, calm, and organized environment. I follow daily routines such as nap time and meal schedules, and I keep play areas and baby items like bottles clean and organized. I also engage in early stimulation activities, playtime, and walks to support development, and I can assist with outings, playdates, and transportation as needed.

“Jaki has been working with our son for 3 weeks, and she does such a great job with him. She's done a great job helping us introduce him to solid food and is supporting him learning how to stand up and crawl. He has the biggest smile on his face whenever she walks in the door. We will continue to book with Jaki as long as she's available :)”

Hello, my name is Ashley. I am punctual, trustworthy, energetic, and patient. I am bilingual in Spanish and fluently speak it as well. I have been babysitting for neighbors since I was a teen. Now, my nanny families come from word of mouth. I have worked with children in various settings (as a tutor, therapist, & teacher's assistant). I enjoy spending time outdoors, doing crafts, and creative play. I have watched children as young as three weeks old and up to younger adults (with autism and intellectual disabilities). I have experience watching multiple children at a time. I have taken child development courses and am certified in Adult, Child, and Infant, Pediatric CPR/AED and First Aid.

“Always kind, professional and great with the kids.”

Leila $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I have been babysitting since I was 10 years old as I am the oldest of 5 children. I currently work at Stanford Children’s Hospital as a Patient Companion and my duties were similar to babysitting duties and much more. I have worked at Stanford Children’s Hospital for nearly 4 years and previous to that I worked in senior homes as a CNA. I also have my CPR/BLS certification in pediatrics and adults. I have also volunteered to provide companionship to seniors in hospice care! My experience at Stanford has taught me so much about children such as how to promote developmental skills, newborn care, or even keep kids entertained while maintaining a safe environment. I have a bachelors in public health and a minor in women’s health issues and I am currently pursuing nursing school! I am relocating from the Bay Area which is why I have to resign from my job at Stanford Children’s, but I look forward to sitting for you!!
