La Quinta
$25 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 23 families in Coachella, CA

I am a retired early childhood teacher with 25+ years of Elementary School teaching. I love children so I immediately try to establish rapport with them no matter what age. I bring books, toys and games that are age appropriate and will keep your child happy and engaged. I have 3 teenage grandsons so I have experience dealing with all ages. Unfortunately, they are in New York so I treasure getting to know new families.

Lisa is fantastic. She arrived early, brought a bunch of fun toys, and immediately had our daughter entertained. We feel lucky to have found someone as great as Lisa.

Hi! My name is Jenn! Currently living in La Quinta but was born and raised in Massachusetts (Rhode Island for college) and lived in LA for ten years. I am a freelance make-up & hair artist which leaves me with a flexible schedule. I'm best used for one off and last minute sitting. I travel with a sunny disposition, a creative mind and a lot of patience. I love playing outdoors, doing arts & crafts, helping with homework, and making kids laugh. I have been known to bring art supplies, make-up and special effects supplies (painting fake latex fingers is always a crowd pleaser) to keep kids entertained. Also, I don't mind doing a little light cleaning & cooking if you need it. I have worked with children of all ages since I was about 15. While living in Rhode Island, post college, I worked as a Home Based Therapist for children with special needs for almost 5 years before moving to LA. In that position I was trained in crisis prevention, CPR and Sign Language. Then while living in LA, I nannied part time and babysat for other families who were regulars.

Jenn was great! Super communicative and the kids liked her a lot. We were staying in a hotel room and she wasn’t phased by the tight quarters. Would recommend!

Booked by 20 families in Coachella, CA

Hi families! My name is Kaylee, I’m 22 years old and ready to be your family’s trusted babysitter! I am currently working a full time office job, but would love to find a family where I can be your consistent or reoccurring date night babysitter! I am a recent college graduate and during my college years I was a nanny for many different families and did countless babysitting gigs. I have over 7 years of paid childcare experience and have worked with children ranging from a few weeks old to pre teens. My absolute favorite part of being a babysitter is coming in and having fun with the kids while the parents are out! While still being extremely responsible, I love being able to just have fun, play games, and make memories with the kids so that they love when babysitters come! I am very responsible, caring, nurturing, and supportive and willing to step in and help in any way I can! I have a big heart for children and have absolutely loved being a nanny/ babysitter and being able to lend a happy hand to families! If you are looking for an occasion babysitter, I am more than happy to chat and provide more about myself and my abilities! Thank you!!🩷

Kaylee was great with my two girls! Already planning the next time she’ll come over!
