Misty $35 per hour for 1 child

* I have many excellent local referral/recommendations that I’m happy to send you with phone numbers, etc. (not through this platform, so cannot add) I've raised 4 children, three girls and one boy. I have 4 "favorites". I home educated my older two through graduation. It was an awesome experience. I enjoy children of all ages and consider caring for them to be a blessing and high calling. I'm easy-going, smart, kind, intuitive and full of initiative. The glass is half full to me and gratitude is a daily priority. I enjoy making the most of each moment. I enjoy thrifting, estate sales, reading, exploring and being near the water. I was raised in the Midwest, happily lived in Austin for 15 years and newly arrived in Echo Park. Empty nest, new adventure! I have excellent references for childcare, elder care, personal assistant, clear recent background check, excellent driving record. * Especially interested in: one time jobs, recurring jobs with minimal hours per week, travel jobs-domestic or international of two weeks or less

Liz $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi, I’m Liz! I have 8+ years of full-time nanny experience, as well as babysitting. I fell in love with kids when I got my first babysitting job at 18. My favorite childcare experiences have been volunteering abroad teaching children English through theater and dance. With a BFA in theater, I am highly energetic, creative, and fun going. Past nanny responsibilities include meal prep, transportation, house management, overnight care, and more. I’d love to answer any questions you have to see if we’d be a good fit!

Hi! I'm Carolyn, and I genuinely enjoy spending time with children and helping families feel supported. As a responsible, caring, and organized professional, I bring patience, reliability, and a positive attitude to every family I work with. I love engaging kids through reading, arts and crafts, games, outdoor activities, and creative play. My goal is to create a safe, fun, and nurturing environment where children feel comfortable and parents feel confident knowing their little ones are in good hands. I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust, and I take that responsibility seriously. Whether you need occasional date-night coverage, after-school care, help with homework, or an extra set of hands around the house, I'm here to help!

Hello! My name is Lizzy and I'm offering my services as a creative and arts-focused babysitter. I grew up in an artist family and have a lot of experience with exploring all the arts.

I speak fluent French and I have a B1.3 level in Spanish. I can also speak conversational German. I’ve lived in Germany and France as well, and spent some time in Italy, Mexico, and Portugal.

"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!"
