Booked by 13 families in Lake Arrowhead, CA

Hello! I'm a full-time college student studying Biology. On my time off, I like to read, bake, and binge a show. I come from a bigger family so I've always helped take care of people when I can. I enjoy helping others with academics since I've had roles as a mentor/tutor from middle through high school. I'm comfortable in the kitchen and cleaning up around the house.

Booked by 3 families in Lake Arrowhead, CA

Hi! My name is Jaki, I’m 31 years old. I’m a health sciences student, and I speak both English and Spanish. I’m offering babysitting services and would love to help families looking for reliable, caring, and experienced childcare. I love spending time with children and have several years of childcare experience, caring for children ranging from newborns and toddlers to elementary school-aged triplets. I’m responsible, patient, organized, and attentive to each child’s needs. I enjoy creating a safe, calm, and fun environment where children feel comfortable and cared for. I’m experienced in following daily routines, including nap times and meal schedules, and keeping play areas, bottles, and baby essentials clean and organized. I also enjoy planning age-appropriate activities, playtime, early developmental stimulation, and outdoor walks to support children’s growth and development. I can also assist with outings, playdates, and transportation when needed. As someone with a background in health sciences, I value children’s well-being, safety, and healthy development. I also understand the importance of building trust and maintaining open communication with parents so they can feel confident and comfortable while their little ones are in my care. I would love the opportunity to support your family and help your little ones learn, grow, and have fun! Feel free to message me if you’re looking for a babysitter. 😊

"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!"
