I have been working with children in various capacities for over 10 years. For 2 years, I worked as an actor on a traveling theatre group that performs shows on bullying prevention and other social issues at schools throughout the greater Seattle area, and then spent 2 years as the Education and Outreach Program Coordinator for that same theatre company. I now work as an Education Programs Specialist at the Skirball Cultural Center in Los Angeles, where I develop museum programming for students and teachers. In terms of childcare, I have worked with dozens of families, ages ranging from 11 weeks to 13 years old, and I am comfortable and experienced working with all ages and up to three children at a time (or more if necessary). I have learned so much from little ones over the past years and being able to play a role in their growth and development is a great joy. I'm passionate about social-emotional learning and creating opportunities to grow in respect and kindness. I love cooking, crafts, and books!
Hey Parents! My name is Jessica and I was born and raised in Austin, TX. I graduated with a BA in Theater Arts from the University of Texas at Austin. I have been a babysitter/nanny off and on for the last 13 years. I have looked after newborns and children up to 14 years of age. I truly enjoy spending time with them and being apart of their development journeys. My responsibilities have included picking up/driving children, light child-related household duties, putting down for naps/bedtime (we love a nap routine!), cooking/preparing meals, feeding, helping with homework, reading, going out for walks, and of course general care and playtime! In my off time I have founded a nonprofit called Orísun Collective, and we host creative arts summer camps for kids in Nigeria. I would run the camp as well as teach the acting class. My hope is that all children will have the space and support to be their full selves and reach their full potential. I am a very goal-oriented person, and I know that I am capable of achieving every single thing I put my mind to. I have been hosting an event every 6 months for the last 10 years called Girls With Goals, where I bring a group of women together at my house and we talk about our goals, write them down, and keep each other accountable throughout the year. Everyone always leaves inspired and motivated to conquer their goals!
“Jessica was amazing. We hired her multiple times to watch our two kids under 3, and every experience was a great one. She was dependable, kind, patient, and very good with both children. She made us feel at ease. She is caring, capable, and experienced. We were grateful for her help and would gladly hire her again.”
Hi! I am an Event Planner, Personal Assistant, House Manager and Lifestyle Manager. I have extensive food, wine, and hospitality experience and love to cook and create memorable dinners and party experiences. I have also been a Placement Consultant for domestic roles and work with families to find the best fit for nannies, housekeepers, chefs, and assistants. If you’d like to connect, please reach out.
“Angela is great! Super trustworthy, responsive, flexible and really good with my cat, always stays with him for a while and he likes her so much. Follows instructions perfectly, even if a bit more complicated than usual as my Ziggy is a senior cat”
I love taking care of children and grew up babysitting my cousins and nieces. I've been a sitter for 4 years and mostly do occasional and part time sitting for various families. I have taught Sunday school to kids aged 3 - 10 for 5 years, for which I'm a mandatory reporter and trained in child CPR. My highest education is a master's degree in film and media production. Please feel free to reach out if you have a job in mind!
Hi, I’m Izzy! I recently moved to LA from Northern California, where I was born and raised. I’m an actor who loves working with kids and bringing creativity, patience, and care into everything I do. I graduated from UC Berkeley in Spring 2024 with a degree in Theater and Performance Studies and a minor in Dance, which really shows up in how I connect with kids through movement, imagination, and play. Over the years, I’ve worked with numerous families, caring for children of all ages—from newborns to teenagers. I also spent several summers working at my former preschool during high school, which gave me early hands-on experience in a nurturing and structured environment. I’ve often helped with pet care too, including walking dogs, feeding pets, and keeping them happy and safe while families are out or busy. I have a background check, I’m CPR certified, and I’m currently in the process of getting my substitute teaching license. I genuinely love spending time with kids. Whether we’re dancing, dressing up, coloring, reading stories, going on walks, running errands, or just using our imaginations—I always aim to make our time together fun and meaningful. I’m also great at helping with schoolwork and love creating a calm, safe space where kids feel encouraged to be themselves. I can’t wait to get to know your family and spend time with your amazing kid(s)!
“Izzy is both professional and super fun with our kids. She is communicative, energetic and fun-loving. We feel very lucky that she is working with our family. She bonded with our kids quickly and they are excited to see her. And she is respectful of our way of being. Izzy is a gem. ”

"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!"
