Lily $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I am a babysitter with over five years of experience and just moved to Long Beach from Napa Valley. I am attending Cal State University Long Beach to get my Bachelor's in Interior Design and have a very flexible school schedule. I have worked with families with children aged 1 to 10 years old and aid in household tasks, everyday duties, and schoolwork. I have done both babysitting and nannying, and am very experienced in caring for children of all ages as well as accommodating the family's everyday routine and needs. I am looking forward to meeting more of my new community!

Yoselin $21 per hour for 1 child

Hello ! :) My name is Yoselin, and I'm a third-year student at Cal State Fullerton studying Child and Adolescent Development, with a concentration in Family and Community Contexts. I'm passionate about children's growth and development and hope to build a career supporting children and families. I have experience caring for younger siblings, cousins, and family friends' children, along with exposure to youth-focused programs through Girls Inc. and A Step Beyond. These experiences have strengthened my interest in working with children and creating a positive, supportive environment where they feel safe and comfortable. I'm available to care for children ages 4 and up and can help with playtime, age-appropriate activities, homework, and everyday routines. I also have my driver's license and may be available for school drop-offs and pickups or occasional errands, depending on my availability and the family's needs. I'm patient, responsible, and eager to get to know each family's routines and preferences so I can provide thoughtful, dependable support. I'm excited to connect with families and help make their days a little easier! 💛

Giovanna $30 per hour for 1 child

Hi there! I’m a loving, proactive, and compassionate nanny and house assistant with over seven years of experience caring for children ages 2 to 16. I’m super energetic, patient, and always bring positive energy into the home. I truly love what I do, helping families stay organized, keeping the home running smoothly, and creating a safe, fun, and nurturing environment for kids to grow and feel loved. Right now, I care for two wonderful kids (ages 12, and 9). My days include school drop-offs, organizing after-school activities like sports and tutoring, helping with errands, managing the family calendar, and keeping the home clean and tidy. Before that, I cared for an amazing 12-year-old boy with autism for almost three years, supporting his daily routine, school, and therapies with patience and consistency, while also helping with light housekeeping, errands, and pet care. Over the years, I’ve gained a lot of experience balancing family routines, promoting positive behavior, and creating a calm and joyful environment. I’m CPR certified, fully vaccinated, a non-smoker, and have a clean driving record. I’m looking for a wonderful family that feels like the right fit, where I can bring my heart, energy, and experience to make everyday life easier and happier. I’d love to hear from you! ✨

Shelley $30 per hour for 1 child

I hold a PhD in Education and spent years as a K-12 educator, so I bring real teaching skills to childcare, not just supervision. As a mom of two (now grown) sons, I know firsthand what kids need at every age. I also have an adorable Shih Tzu, so I'm comfortable caring for pets alongside kids. I'm new to Newport Beach and really love the people, the area, and just the entire vibe here. I’m patient, down-to-earth, and very nurturing to children and animals.

"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!"
