Lesly Los Angeles
$25 per hour for 1 child

My name is Lesly, I have a Bachelor’s degree in Sociology from Cal State LA. I have over three years of hands-on experience working one-on-one with children of all ages in school and home settings. My work has focused on supporting children’s developmental, emotional, and academic needs and providing consistent care. Before that, I worked as a babysitter while attending college, further deepening my understanding of child development and family dynamics. Growing up, I was also the primary caregiver for my younger siblings, which taught me early on the importance of responsibility, patience, and empathy.

Carson
$21 per hour for 1 child

My name is Shay, and I’ve spent over 10 years caring for children of all ages—from newborns to teenagers—both in the U.S. and overseas. I’ve taught English through my church, helped care for children within my own family, and supported new mothers as they adjusted after welcoming their babies. I’m a caring, patient, and reliable babysitter who loves creating a safe, calm environment for children. I’m attentive, nurturing, and respectful of family routines, and I’m happy to help with playtime, meals, and light tidying. I take children’s safety and parents’ trust very seriously and am open to occasional or regular babysitting.

I have observed Shay caring for children ranging from infants to teens. She has generously volunteered her time to care for pastors’ children during their busy schedules. Shay is well-loved by the children and consistently welcomes them with warmth, kindness, and a positive demeanor. As a parent of an infant myself, I have personally experienced her attentiveness—when Shay babysits for me, she takes immediate, proactive care of my child, allowing me to focus fully on my work with confidence and peace of mind. I confidently recommend Shay to anyone looking for a trustworthy, attentive, and compassionate babysitter.

I am a warm, dependable, and experienced nanny, housekeeper, pet sitter, and family assistant with over 10 years of experience, starting at age 18. I have cared for children from 6 months to 18 years old, often managing multiple children at once, while creating a safe, loving, and structured environment. I support families with daily routines, meals, light housekeeping, errands, and overall household organization. I also have experience with pet sitting and house sitting, ensuring homes and animals are well cared for while families are away. I truly enjoy helping families feel supported, comfortable, and confident knowing their children and home are in good hands.
