Booked by 1 family in Newport Beach, CA

I’m currently a college student at USC with 4 years of tutoring experience, working with students of all ages to help them grow academically and build confidence. For the past 3 years, I’ve also babysat part-time for multiple families, primarily caring for children ages 1 and up. I’ve handled infants on several occasions and would love to gain more hands-on experience with younger babies as well. I’m calm under pressure, very organized, and always prioritize creating a safe, engaging, and nurturing environment for kids. Whether it’s helping with homework, preparing snacks, playing games, or managing bedtime routines, I’m happy to support families however I can. As a student, I bring energy and strong communication skills. I truly enjoy building meaningful connections with both kids and parents, and I’m committed to making your family’s day a little easier.

Hi! My name is Rana and I’m 23 years old, currently in my 4th year of pharmacy school. I have experience babysitting toddlers/ kids among family/ friends as well child-care volunteering for community events. I love spending time with kids and would describe myself as very social so I can spark up a convo and keep kids entertained! I’m dedicated to making sure they have a fun, safe, and healthy time. I can assist with their studies, arts/ crafts, cleaning, playtime, and light cooking. I also have two 2 cats and prior cat-sitting experience. I’m mainly available on weekends and weekday evenings. I’m also CPR certified, can administer injections/ medications if needed, and am mental health first aid certified as well!

Booked by 1 family in Newport Beach, CA

I've been a childcare provider for three years, motivated by my passion for nurturing children's growth and development. As a patient, creative, and friendly caregiver, I strive to create a safe and stimulating environment for your child. I believe in open communication and will provide daily reports and verbal updates at pickup, following your preferred method. I am comfortable enforcing household rules as guided by you, the parents, and enjoy playing a variety of games with children, from outdoor sports to board games and educational games that promote learning. I'm also trained in CPR and Early Childhood Education (ECE). I'm seeking a position where I can make a positive impact on a child's life and help them reach their full potential. I would be delighted to assist with carpooling, light housekeeping, and travel. If you're seeking a reliable, experienced, and dedicated childcare provider, I would love to connect with you to discuss how I can support your family.

Jaqueline was wonderful with our 4 month old and 2 year old!

Booked by 2 families in Newport Beach, CA

Hello, my name is Lacey and I am a second year in college and CSU Long Beach majoring in Public Health. I have always had a passion for working with kids, which is a big part of why I want to become a pediatric PA in the future. I have two nieces and three nephews of my own from infant to 4 years, and spending time with them and babysitting them has given me a lot of hands on experience caring for children of different ages and personalities. I have also babysat for other families with kids who are older ages and really enjoyed creating a fun, safe, and positive environment for them to be in. I would describe myself as patient, responsible, and energetic. I love being creative, playing games, and being outside to have fun, but also love a movie night once in a while. I can do anything from cooking a meal, maybe not gourmet, but something balanced and sustainable and even helping with homework, especially in math and science. I have previously been CPR certified although it recently expired, but I am working on getting certified again! I am also a big animal lover and have four dogs and a cat of my own, so I am completely comfortable caring for pets too. I also have my own reliable car, so I can provide transportation if needed and am also willing to drive the family car if preferred. Overall, I am a dependable and caring babysitter who love making sure kids (and pets!) feel safe, happy, and are well cared for.
