Hello, families! 😁 I’ve been taking care of little ones since many years ago. I was a preschool and elementary teacher so my experience is specially in ages 2-10+. Looking forward to connect with you.☀️

Daniela was great with our daughter! They had fun in our home while we were out. She connected with my daughter quickly and they had fun games and drawings. I’d recommend her to my friends

Hi! I’m Jocelyn, a student at UC Irvine with experience working with children in a variety of settings. As a former swim instructor, I’ve worked with kids of all ages, helping them build confidence while always putting safety first. Through that role, I received CPR training and was previously CPR certified, giving me a strong foundation in emergency response. I’ve also volunteered at an elementary school, where I supervised and supported children in a positive and encouraging environment, and participated in youth programs that strengthened my leadership and communication skills. I’m patient, responsible, and genuinely enjoy spending time with kids. Whether we’re playing games, doing crafts, reading stories, or spending time outdoors, I strive to create a fun, safe, and caring environment where children feel comfortable being themselves. I understand how important trust is when choosing a caregiver, and I take pride in being dependable, attentive, and someone families can count on. I look forward to meeting your family and providing a fun, safe, and positive experience for your children!

We hired Jocelyn for a one-day sitting job and she was wonderful. She arrived right on time, was polite and respectful with us, and was genuinely sweet and caring with our son. He had so much fun with her, which says everything. We'd happily have her back and recommend her to any family looking for someone kind and reliable.

Stevana $23 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Evie and I am 21 years old. I am a student at Cañada College majoring in Social Work. My passions include working with kids, art, and cooking. My five years of professional childcare experience include working summer camps, being a teachers assistant, working at two daycares, babysitting, and tutoring. I have worked with kids of all ages. When I show up for work I will always show up prepared. I often will plan crafts and activities that the kiddo will like. In the past I've taken my kiddos to the park. I am happy to cook, clean, and provide transportation regularly or as needed. I also am happy to help with homework. I have a safe car and a clean driving record. I hope you consider me as an option to be your babysitter!

"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!"
