Courtney $24 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m a compassionate and experienced caregiver with a strong background in childcare, newborn support, and family care. I spent 3 years working as a preschool teacher, where I developed a love for creating safe, nurturing, and engaging environments for children to learn and grow. In addition to teaching, I have over 5 years of nanny experience working closely with multiple families and supporting children through different stages of development. I am also a trained birth and postpartum doula as well as a newborn care specialist, which has allowed me to support families during some of the most important and vulnerable moments of their lives. My approach is calm, patient, attentive, and family-centered, with a focus on providing both emotional and practical support. Beyond childcare, I previously worked as a certified nurse’s assistant in senior living and rehabilitation centers, where I gained valuable hands-on caregiving experience and strengthened my ability to provide compassionate care to individuals of all ages. Outside of work, I’m a fur mom to two cats and recently said goodbye to my sweet senior dog who passed from old age.

Maria $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi, I'm Maria! I have 10+ years of experience working with children, starting with family and growing through trusted referrals. I'm warm, patient, and reliable, and I love keeping kids engaged through crafts, outdoor play, reading, and creative activities while maintaining structure with routines like meals, homework, and bedtime. I'm a UCLA graduate and have worked as a behavioral technician with children on the autism spectrum, which has made me adaptable, attentive, and supportive of each child's unique needs. I'm comfortable with school drop-offs/pick-ups, light household tasks, and pets. I have reliable transportation and always prioritize safety, communication, and creating a positive environment for both kids and parents. I am CPR CERTIFIED.

Presley $20 per hour for 1 child

Hello! My name is Presley and I am a recent UCLA graduate! I am happy to offer services in child care, pet care, and household care. Although I had no choice, I have been a babysitter since the age of 3, when my parents brought my little brother home from the hospital. In the twenty years since, I have babysat for children between the ages of 4 and 11. As a high schooler, I tutored neighborhood kids in math and literature. I am confident that I can sufficiently assist in math homework through Algebra II. Beyond the scope of caring for human children, I have grown up with both dogs and cats and volunteered at the local Animal Shelter. I am more than happy to clean up after dogs or cats, take dogs for walks, and give them lots of love. I am extremely tidy, organized, and willing to do any chores around the house. Moreover, I can run errands and transport children or pets via car. As a whole, I consider myself to be a warm, enthusiastic, and committed person who gets along swimmingly with any living being, child, adult, or pet :)
