Hi there! As the oldest of two, I’ve grown up regularly caring for my younger sisters (ages 3 and 14), which has taught me to be exceptionally patient, responsible, and adaptable across different age groups. I am happy to help around the house with cooking, meal prep, and light cleaning. I also love pets and have a cat and a dog of my own! Please note that while I don't have my driver's license yet, I have reliable transportation to and from your home. I’m excited to support local families with dependable, attentive care!

Carole $25 per hour for 1 child

I’m a reliable, compassionate, and highly experienced caregiver dedicated to providing exceptional care for children, families, and properties. My approach blends professionalism, intuition, and empathy to ensure that every household runs smoothly and every child feels safe, nurtured, and respected. Over the years, I’ve cared for children of all ages — from infants to teens — including those recovering from illness or needing extra attention and comfort when parents are working or away. While I am not a medical doctor, I’m confident and calm in managing basic care needs, administering medications under parental instruction, and maintaining detailed notes to keep families informed. I understand that every child has unique needs, and I take pride in creating a gentle, stable environment that fosters both healing and growth. In addition to childcare, I offer full home and property care. I ensure that homes are clean, organized, and secure, plants and pets are tended to, and daily routines continue without interruption. Whether you’re traveling, managing multiple residences, or just need an extra pair of hands, I bring a sense of order, warmth, and trustworthiness to every household I assist. My background includes experience in education, family support, and property management. Families describe me as attentive, resourceful, and kind-hearted — someone who treats their home and loved ones as if they were my own. I’m also comfortable with scheduling, errands, meal preparation, and light housekeeping, ensuring that the home environment is peaceful and welcoming. Whether you need help caring for your children, overseeing your property, or simply bringing calm and reliability into your home, I am here to help with a professional yet personal touch.

Jennlee $28 per hour for 1 child

⸻ Hi, I’m Jennlee — a calm, dependable, and nurturing caregiver based in Los Angeles. Alongside my career as a professional vocalist and actress (including performing as Nala in The Lion King and working internationally with Cirque du Soleil), I genuinely love caring for children. Working with families brings a grounding, joyful balance to my creative life, and it’s something I take seriously. Most of my childcare experience has come through referrals and long-term family relationships. I’m an auntie of four and have supported multiple families privately over the years, caring for infants through teens. Parents consistently describe me as warm, patient, organized, and exceptionally reliable. My professional background has strengthened my discipline, punctuality, and ability to stay calm and focused in any environment — qualities that translate directly into safe, attentive childcare. I’m comfortable managing daily routines, creative play, homework support, meal prep, and bedtime wind-downs. I’m a strong communicator and safety-conscious. I adore animals and am happy to assist with pet care as well (former dog mom to a Standard Poodle and Maltese). Availability: Flexible weekdays and weekends when not performing References: Happily provided upon request I would love to connect and support your family. — Jennlee
