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

Booked by 26 families in Tamarac, FL

Hello there! My name is Fernanda, and I'm delighted to meet you. I'm 32 years young and originally from Brazil. I've had the joy of calling the US home for the past 8 years. During this time, I've had the pleasure of working as a full-time nanny for 3 years, and since then, I've been babysitting occasionally while pursuing my studies and exploring other professional opportunities. I must say, caring for children brings me immense joy as I truly cherish their company. In Brazil, I'm lucky to have two adorable nieces, aged 9 and 3, who mean the world to me. Whenever I'm back home, I spend every moment possible with them. They hold a special place in my heart. I understand how important your little one is to you, and I want to assure you that I'll care for them as if they were my own family. Your trust means everything to me.

Baylee $20 per hour for 1 child

Hello, beautiful families! My name is Baylee. I grew up in a large family with eight siblings, all two to four years apart, making childcare a natural part of my life. I also have experience babysitting for other families and can help with driving, homework, cooking, dancing, painting, and more. I am responsible, reliable, and nurturing, with strong multitasking skills and a natural ability to understand children’s emotional and physical needs. I am also comfortable caring for pets and walking them. I’ve owned a Micro American Bully, a Great Pyrenees, two cats, goldfish, a bird, snakes, lizards, and bunnies. Additionally, I assist with senior companionship, light housekeeping, and keeping spaces clean and organized. I truly enjoy caregiving and take pride in creating a safe, fun, and supportive environment for families.
