Julianna $22 per hour for 1 child

During the last few years of my life, I have babysat my own family and worked at an elementary school. I worked with grade levels k-3. I worked as a teachers assistant on my days that I didn’t have work. I worked and still do work at chilis. Since I love working with kids and taking care of kids inside and outside of school I want to put my experience to work and help out those who need it. I love taking care of any family friends children or my cousins. Anything you need I can be there for you😊.

Catherine $24 per hour for 1 child

Hello, and thank you for connecting. My name is Catherine, and I am a Los Angeles Native. I have my Master's degree in Educational Counseling and my B.S. in Rehabilitation Counseling. I have functioned as a professional advocate for 30 years. I have had the privilege of serving individuals with intellectual disabilities and their families throughout Southern California. My experience working with children began in parks and recreation, and lastly as a school counselor in the public school system. Throughout the years, I have been around children with and without developmental barriers to learning and physical challenges. I enjoy being around young-hearted people as they learn about life and themselves. Serving adults with various abilities to be as independent as possible is fantastic because, just like me, everyone wants to be the king/queen of their castle. I appreciate life and all that it offers, learning and being active on my bicycle, walking, playing catch with another, and going to the library are how I enjoy my precious time. I am here to be of service. Please feel free to contact me with any specific questions to help me best meet your child's and or adult care needs. Current Virtus (Protecting God's Children). C.E.R.T.

Carissa $20 per hour for 1 child

I’m a responsible and patient caregiver with experience working with children of all ages, from infants to school-age students. I currently attend Liberty University and am majoring in Elementary Education, with a goal to become a teacher somewhere in the range of 1st-3rd grade. As part of my degree, I have completed several practicums in a classroom and several tutoring sessions as well, which included tutoring students in reading, writing, math, social studies, and science. I have also grown up babysitting since around the age of 13, so I am very familiar with creating a positive, fun, and safe environment for kids. I’m organized, reliable, and comfortable managing routines such as meals, homework, and bedtime. I love creating a positive, engaging environment through activities, learning, and play, and I always prioritize safety, communication, and building trust with every family I work with.
