Nadia Los Angeles
$30 per hour for 1 child

I am an exhibition designer. During the week, I have a full time job. I have 1 -2 years of experience with kids while teaching art K-5. Care giving is one of the duties of teaching art to children so I would be more than happy to spend time with kids. I grew up with dogs, and have always had one except now. I can help you with your pets needs in your home like feeding them and spending time with them but wont stay overnight. I have experience with seniors, mainly family members that have experienced medical situations that require full time attention. I am not a nurse. I can assist with keeping company, and basic things but no cleaning up the person or moving them if immobilized. I have experienced terminally ill family members and can assist with basic care as well. I do not do any household services.

Gigi Los Angeles
$30 per hour for 1 child

Hi everyone! I’m Gigi and I’m offering child care, pet care, and household services. I’ve been babysitting since high school and worked at a daycare throughout college, giving me experience caring for children of all ages with most of my time being spent with toddlers! I’m also a dog owner to a boxer and a bulldog/pit mix, so I’m very comfortable caring for pets. I’m responsible, patient, and reliable, and am happy to help with activities, homework, meals, daily routines, bedtime, and household tasks. Heads up- I do work full time so my availability is early mornings during the week, late nights, and free all weekends! Excited to work with you and your family! :)

Constanza Los Angeles
$30 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Constanza. I am a responsible, patient, and caring person who really enjoys spending time with children 😊 I have experience with babies and young kids since I was 15 years old because my younger sister was born when I was a teenager, so I helped take care of her a lot. This gave me my first experience with babies and taught me how to be attentive and loving with children. Currently, I take care of an 11-month-old baby and an almost 3-year-old boy for about 8 hours a day. I have known them for almost a year, so I am very familiar with their routines and needs. I help with feeding, playing, keeping them safe, and making sure they have a fun and positive day. I really enjoy doing activities with kids like playing, reading stories, going for walks, and helping them learn new things. I always try to create a safe, fun, and caring environment where children feel comfortable and happy

Hi there! I’m Rose and I’m currently a FT teacher. A little about me: I am a cat mom of 2 adorable babies, born and raised in Los Angeles. I am a fluent English & Korean speaker and conversational in Spanish. I’ve helped run our daycare business with my mother for the past 15+ years in the heart of LA. I completed my undergrad at Parsons in NYC. While studying, I had numerous babysitting/teaching gigs. I’ve taken ECE courses at UCLA extension.

My background in art and design inspires me to find creative ways to teach and interact with children. I love children’s curious nature to never stop learning and strive to be like them in this way. I look forward to helping out with your little one/s!
