Hi! My name is Olivia, and I am from New York but have been living in LA for almost 4 years. I have 6-7 years of experience of working with kids from teaching skiing, nannying, and regular babysitting. In the past I would play board games, paint, and anything outdoors. My full time job is as an art director so I lean on the creative side to do painting, drawing, etc with the kiddos. Hope we can connect soon!
Kate $22 per hour for 1 child
Hi! My name is Kate, and I’d love to support your family with reliable, attentive, and engaging part-time childcare, including evenings and weekends. I currently work full-time at a family law center and truly enjoy working with children and families. I’m a Colgate University graduate and an incoming student at the University of Pennsylvania Carey Law School. I have extensive tutoring and babysitting experience, along with a lifetime of hands-on childcare from growing up with three younger siblings. I am also lifeguard certified and have previous experience as a swimming instructor. I’m responsible, patient, and organized, and I prioritize creating a safe, positive environment, whether that means helping with homework, doing crafts, playing outdoors, reading together, or supporting bedtime routines. I also bring strong academic support experience, including homework help, organization, and study skills. I specialize in standardized test preparation and college readiness (177 LSAT, 34 ACT), but always tailor my approach to each child’s age and learning style. Families describe me as dependable, communicative, and calm under pressure. I’m happy to assist with light tidying, simple meal prep, and maintaining household routines. I look forward to connecting with your family!
