Booked by 6 families in Oak Park, CA

My name is Angie, and I’m a 24-year-old with over 7 years of babysitting experience. I currently work at a private Christian school in the valley, where I’ve had the privilege of caring for and teaching children of all ages. I absolutely love being a helping hand to parents, especially when it comes to giving them a chance for a much-needed date night! I understand how important it is to have those moments to reconnect. I’m also recently married and excited to start working with new families. I look forward to providing safe, fun, and caring support for your little ones while you enjoy some time for yourself!

My family is so glad we found Angelica! She is dependable and punctual. Her energy is positive and fun, and she is patient, sweet and overall great with kids.

Booked by 5 families in Oak Park, CA

Hi! My name is Sydney and I am college graduate from Brandeis University and have recently graduated from Parker University. I have been babysitting since I was 14. I am CPR/First Aid/AED certified for children and infants. I played collegiate and international softball, so I can definitely handle an active child. I love children of all ages. I worked in a daycare from 2[removed] in Massachusetts in the 2-3-year-old classroom. In addition to children, I also adore animals. I have been a Wag Walker for 4 years, but I also volunteered at an animal rescue for years. I have two dogs, a cat, and a turtle so I can (and will) comfortably care for your animals!

Fantastic! Great communicator and my kids loved her!

Booked by 1 family in Oak Park, CA

Hello, My name is Aloha, I'm 24 years old, and I'm currently an au pair for a family of three children, ages 7, 14, and 17. The 14-year-old is autistic, so I'm able to look after a child with a mild disability. I'm French but I speak good English. In France, I also looked after children between the ages of 3 and 6. I've also looked after toddlers a few times, so I'm able to do so with clear instructions about their needs. I am offering child care, pets care, and household services. I can cook, drive to appointments, or other tasks. Looking forward to helping you :)
