Natalie $20 per hour for 1 child

I am a third year college student at Ca State Dominguez Hills and I’m majoring in Advertising and Public Relations. I have been taking care of kids ages 0-3 for the last 2 years.

Leanne $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi my name is Leanne! I am 19 years old and I go to Pasadena City College. I am majoring in Nursing to become a Labor and Delivery Nurse. I have my license and a car so if transportation is needed, I am more than happy to help. I have 3 years of experience with children from the infant stages to teenagers. I have 5 siblings from the ages of 1 to 14 so I am experienced with bottle feeding and changing diapers to helping with homework and making sure they're fed. I also work at Boys and Girls Club and I mainly work with TK/Kinders! I have always loved engaging children in fun and educational activities! I am reliable, responsible, and will always prioritize the safety of the children I care for. My goal is to create a positive and enjoyable environment for your children while you are away! Thank you so much for viewing my application! I'm excited to get to know you and your family in any way I can!

Ami $25 per hour for 1 child

I’m a creative, experienced childcare professional with more than 20 years of nanny experience caring for children from toddlerhood through the teen years, including children with autism, ADHD, developmental delays, and other special needs. I have a background in Child Development and Montessori education, and as an artist, I love bringing creativity into childcare through arts and crafts, imaginative play, reading, music, outings, and hands-on learning. In 2019, I stepped away from childcare to become the full-time caregiver for my husband as he battled serious lung disease. Following his passing in February 2026, I’m now returning to childcare occasionally. I enjoy being the childcare professional parents can call when they need someone experienced, dependable, warm, and genuinely engaged with their children. Whether it’s a date night, busy weekend, or a few hours of extra help, I’d love to bring my years of experience and a little creativity to the time I spend with your kids.

Azalia $25 per hour for 1 child

My name is Azalia and I am currently in my last semester of school. I am offering babysitting and dog-sitting services. I believe that I am great with kids and I enjoy creating a fun space for them. I have experience caring for toddlers between the ages of 3 and 6 years old and limited experience with caring for infants. I eventually want to become a child therapist after graduating from college, so having more experience with children would be amazing for me. I like to create fun activities for kids like creating art, playing games, just activities that would keep them busy! I have a BLS certification as well. I am very patient with kids, so I think my personality is perfect for babysitting!

"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!"
