Booked by 6 families in Monterey Park, CA

Hi, I'm a college student who loves to help others! When I’m not working with children at a museum, I’m looking after families like yours. I use empathy, patience, and years of experience to care for your loved ones. I have reliable transportation and am always ready on short notice. I’d love to meet and assist you in any way possible!

Ruby is a wonderful babysitter—calm, intelligent, and compassionate. She quickly understands what needs to be done, takes initiative without being asked, and is always ready to help in any situation. Her thoughtful and gentle approach creates a safe, happy environment for children, and her quick thinking gives parents peace of mind. Highly recommended.

Booked by 4 families in Monterey Park, CA

Hi! My name is Linda and I am a boy mom. My sons are 12 and 8 years old. I provided childcare for other families from my home when my sons were infants. I am the oldest of 5 kids and absolutely love being around children. I love teaching, being silly, dancing, and empowering kids. I have my bachelor's degree in Psychology and my work experience has been in mental health, social work, and working with troubled children and teens. My favorite job by far was working as a counselor at a mental health clinic for children. I had a group of 5-8 clients, ages 8-10 years old that I worked with daily on anger management, emotion regulation and social skills. I enjoy the outdoors: hiking, camping, and exploring in general. I love the ocean: swimming, snorkeling, boating. I love getting lost in a good book. And I love to dance, specially salsa and bachata. I am kind, nurturing, honest, and will care for your children as if they were my own. I look forward to working together!

Booked by 6 families in Monterey Park, CA

Hi there! I’m Naomi, I recently graduated from SFSU with a bachelor’s in communications! I also work with a local nonprofit that provides after-school child care. I get to teach and supervise a group of awesome first graders every day, and it’s truly the highlight of my week. I love working with kids and always strive to bring a mix of fun, creativity, and care into everything we do — whether it’s arts and crafts, nature walks, or fun kitchen experiments. I’m also a big-time dog lover, so I’m more than happy to help out with pet sitting too! Can’t wait to meet your little ones (and furry friends)!

Naomi filled in for another babysitter last minute and the kids loved her!

I am a graduate student at the University of Southern California. I went to the University of San Francisco for my undergrad, and ended up spending 7 years living in the city. Originally, I am from Texas and I have a younger brother and sister, and am older than most of my cousins so I have a lot of experience with kids and teenagers. I also mentored at Corey Elementary school during my junior year of high and at Boles Jr. High school during my senior year of high school. I used to babysit with this app all throughout undergrad so I have plenty of experience! I also have no pet allergies. Thanks for your time!
