La Mirada
$20 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 3 families in Fullerton, CA

Hello, my name is Lauryn and I am a Freshman at Cal State University of Fullerton. I am offering child care, pet care, and household services. I love babysitting and have been watching over infants, toddlers, kids and recently newborns as well! Many responsibilities I have had include driving to/from places, making crafts, tutoring, and even art lessons. I also work as a daycare/preschools aide at local schools for the childcare career program. I will also be willing to be a household assistant to run errands, laundry, organizing and clean as well. Additionally, I have pet sit many times with dogs, cats, and rabbits. My responsibilities included walking, feeding, and playing with animals. One issue - I have trouble with large, loud dogs, but I’m happy to work with quieter dogs or any other animals.

Priscilla Orange
$20 per hour for 1 child

I’m Priscilla, a fellow mom just looking to support another family with night care/date nights, occasional care, or short-term babysitting. The little one I was caring for recently started daycare, so I’m hoping to connect with a new family who needs someone loving, patient, and reliable. Additionally, they still contact me asking to care for baby if needed. As a nursing student, my schedule can be a little unique, but I’m usually up studying until 2–3 AM anyway, so evenings and nights work beautifully for me! (My school schedule is completely online until April 12th) A little about me 😊 • I’m 20 and a mama to my sweet, adventurous almost 19 month old son • I’m the oldest of 5 (ages 3–15), so caring for kids is second nature • One of my siblings has William syndrome and on the spectrum, so I’m familiar with adapting care, gentle communication, and meeting children exactly where they are • I love walks, reading, hands-on play, arts & crafts, and trying new recipes when I get the chance I’m a low-to-no-screen caregiver — we rarely use screens at home, so I absolutely understand and respect families who want engaging, present, and mindful care. I’m happy to keep little ones entertained with play, imagination, and comfort without devices. I’m also very comfortable following sleep routines and bedtime schedules, and can keep your nighttime rhythm consistent while you enjoy your well deserved time away. I can provide three references with families I’ve worked with and 2 of my personal family reference letters if needed !! 😊
