Yoselin $21 per hour for 1 child

Hello ! :) My name is Yoselin, and I'm a third-year student at Cal State Fullerton studying Child and Adolescent Development, with a concentration in Family and Community Contexts. I'm passionate about children's growth and development and hope to build a career supporting children and families. I have experience caring for younger siblings, cousins, and family friends' children, along with exposure to youth-focused programs through Girls Inc. and A Step Beyond. These experiences have strengthened my interest in working with children and creating a positive, supportive environment where they feel safe and comfortable. I'm available to care for children ages 4 and up and can help with playtime, age-appropriate activities, homework, and everyday routines. I also have my driver's license and may be available for school drop-offs and pickups or occasional errands, depending on my availability and the family's needs. I'm patient, responsible, and eager to get to know each family's routines and preferences so I can provide thoughtful, dependable support. I'm excited to connect with families and help make their days a little easier! 💛

Karina $23 per hour for 1 child

Hi my name is Karina and I’m currently going to school for cosmetology! I’m offering childcare services. I love being a babysitter, I’ve watched kids from the age range of 4-10. I used to babysit for a family watching 2 kids at a time for about 2 years! I would help clean up after the kids, make sure they did homework if they had any, do some coloring and outdoor activities if they wanted to, make sure they took a bath before bedtime and provided a safe environment in the comfort of their own home!

Elaina $28 per hour for 1 child

With over 15 years of experience in pet care, I bring reliability, compassion, and genuine love for animals to every visit. I’ve cared for dogs and cats of all breeds, sizes, and personalities - offering everything from daily walks and playtime to overnight sitting and special care for senior pets. My background includes working with busy professionals and families who trust me to keep their pets happy, healthy, and safe while they’re away. Whether it’s a long walk, extra cuddles, or maintaining routines, I treat every pet like my own - ensuring peace of mind and wagging tails every time.

"We were incredibly grateful that Maya was able to help us out with a last-minute childcare emergency. She matched our 9-year-old's energy with arts & crafts, some quiet reading, and a walk around the neighborhood. We'd have Maya back in a heartbeat!"
