Hi! My name is Megan, and I am currently looking for occasional/ part time babysitting or petsitting jobs while I take some gap years before graduate school. I've been babysitting for about 10 years now, but as the oldest sister I've been helping out with my siblings since I was young. I graduated from UCLA in 2023 with a BA in Psychology and a minor in Anthropology. I enjoy learning about health and medicine in the contexts of development and society. Some of my hobbies include drawing, yoga, and eating good food :) I’ve worked with children of different ages, ranging from babies to teenagers, though I have the most experience with babies and kids ages 2 - 5. I find caregiving to be a fun and rewarding job. While kids learn a lot from us, I find that we learn a lot from them as well. I value patience and respect, and these are qualities I show to the kids I work with. I look forward to working with you!

Hi my name is Cindy! I just graduated from UCSB with my bachelor’s degree in Psychological Brain Sciences. I’m currently taking a gap year before applying to grad school. I love babysitting! I’m very responsible and great at creating safe and fun environments for children. I’ve worked at Anna Kyle Elementary school as a noon duty where I supervised kids from kindergarten to fifth grade. I have also babysat for many families of infants and toddlers for since I was 15 years old. I’ve recently worked as a research assistant at an Autism center where I worked with children on the spectrum from ages 4-7 providing skills to build communication and social skills.

Cindy was so incredibly sweet! She loved our kiddo and he loved her too! Cindy followed our instructions and did very well. We plan to use her again!

I have several years of experience caring for children of different ages, from infants to pre-teens. My passion for childcare comes from growing up in a big family of 6 siblings where I often looked after all my nieces and nephews. Babysitting has taught me patience, creativity, and responsibility, and I truly enjoy being part of a child’s growth and daily routines. I’m reliable, organized, and calm under pressure, but I also bring a fun and energetic side to any workplace I am in. I love planning activities like arts and crafts, reading stories, or playing games that keep kids entertained and engaged. Safety is always my top priority, and I’m confident handling bedtime routines, homework, teaching chores, and having fun while being safe. Parents describe me as dependable, kind, and someone who makes their kids feel comfortable right away. Babysitting isn’t just a job for me, it’s something I genuinely enjoy, and I strive to create a safe, fun, and caring environment for every child I watch. I look forward to each day to go to work.
