Lay $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi!Hi! My name is Layyy. If given the opportunity, I’d be thrilled to care for your little one. I’m going into my third year of college as a music major with over several years in the field of youth work and child development– as I am a community organizer, facilitator, and oldest child of five lol.I love creating a safe and joyful place where little ones can explore, learn and just be themselves. With my love for music and art I'd be thrilled to bring lots of creative and playful energy. Singing, dancing, mini jam sessions, museum trips lol, you name it. On top of all of that, I'd say I'm a very reliable and thoughtful person. I am passionate about working with youth and the field of childcare because I believe every child's unique spirit deserves to be celebrated- including yours. Hope to hear from you soon!

Olivia $25 per hour for 1 child

Hello! My name's Olivia and I am a student at Loyola Marymount University, pursuing a career in education, with a passion for cultivating engaging and caring environments for youth! With me, your kids will be in great hands and household tasks will be taken care of. I have a variety of professional and in-home childcare experience including babysitting, dance lessons, swim lessons, summer camps, and ABA. I am also an animal lover with a husky and cat at home. I believe in curiosity-led adventures that allow kids to develop their emotional intelligence and expand their knowledge. This might involve getting active outside, doing science experiments, arts and crafts, and more. I'll work with you to involve as much of your family customs into our day as possible. Additionally, I have the necessary skills and experience to work with kiddos who have sensory challenges, ASD, ADHD, and/or DS. I look forward to working with your family!

Alexis $23 per hour for 1 child

Hi, my names Alexis Navarro I am a 19 year old (20 in October) college student majoring in business administration. I love kids and having 8 siblings, 7 of them being younger, it has only helped me to love them more. Right now I am mainly looking for flexible work such as one or 2 time jobs as I do have another job. I hope you will give me a chance to look after your precious little ones (little humans and even pets!) if the dates are more than a week in advance I can work better with time!

Vanessa $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi, my name is Vanessa, and I look forward to meeting you! I recently graduated from UCLA and currently work part-time on weekends. I am interested in providing baby and childcare services, as well as occasional pet care. I have been babysitting since my teenage years. My knowledge of baby care is still fresh, especially since my baby niece is turning two. While it may seem easy, having an extra hand is always helpful. I possess a driver's license and own a car, which has allowed me to commute from residential areas to highways. I am comfortable with pickups and drop-offs, and I'm also okay with running quick, easy errands. NOTE: I am also open to pet and house-sitting
