Meriam $28 per hour for 1 child

Hello, I’m Meriam! I’m a 26 year old woman living in Playa del Rey. I recently moved here after finishing school in Michigan. I have experience babysitting my nieces and nephews from their diaper days all the way into their teenage years. I love being in the company of children and understand the importance of having warm, positive, considerate role models around. I’m more than happy to accomodate any special needs and to help with school work and studying. I also have experience housesitting for family members and family friends, as well as dog walking! I have a dog and two cats of my own, so I’m very familiar with pet personalities, feeding times, ailments, etc. I’m very detail oriented, patient, and empathetic. I value clear, professional communication and maintain high respect for all children, adults, and homes. I’m highly punctual and understand the value of your time! My work background mostly consists of restaurant service, administrative office work, and creative marketing. I’m happy to handle a number of household chores while I’m watching over your child(ren), as well as feed them pre-made meals or snacks! But, I am unable to meal prep or cook family size meals myself, due to strong personal preferences. I spend most of my free time studying for the LSAT, attending fitness classes, reading books, creative writing and drawing, and exploring the beautiful nature and city scenes California has to offer! :) Looking forward to discussing your family’s needs and seeing if I may be an ideal fit.

$28 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I'm Polly. I work in the film industry and also teach yoga in the early mornings. I own a small business where I lead children's yoga, Mommy & Me classes, and arts and crafts experiences designed to encourage creativity, confidence, and mindfulness. I'm a creative person who loves working with children and creating fun, engaging, and safe environments where they can learn and grow. For the past three and a half years, I've worked as a part-time nanny with multiple families from different backgrounds and have built strong, long-term relationships with them. I have excellent references available upon request. I'm comfortable with pets, have a clean driving record, and am a confident driver. I speak English, Portuguese, and Spanish, which allows me to connect with families from diverse backgrounds. I'd love the opportunity to support your family :)

“Polly is a wonderful caregiver! She has cared for my 5 year old son and 3 year old daughter many times and they absolutely adore her. Polly is able to adapt to their different interests and personalities perfectly. I highly recommend Polly, she’s a gem!”

Crystal $25 per hour for 1 child

Hello, I'm Crystal I’m a mother of two teenagers and have always loved working with children. For the past four years, I’ve worked as a paraprofessional in a school, supporting children from kindergarten through third grade. This experience has taught me the importance of patience, compassion, and understanding each child’s individual needs. I truly enjoy spending time with children and creating a safe, caring, and positive environment for them. Outside of work, I enjoy reading, visiting museums, and watching movies. As a babysitter, my goal is not only to care for your children but also to help parents feel confident, comfortable, and reassured while they’re away. I understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your children, and I would treat your family with the same care and respect I would want for my own.

Azalia $25 per hour for 1 child

My name is Azalia and I am currently in my last semester of school. I am offering babysitting and dog-sitting services. I believe that I am great with kids and I enjoy creating a fun space for them. I have experience caring for toddlers between the ages of 3 and 6 years old and limited experience with caring for infants. I eventually want to become a child therapist after graduating from college, so having more experience with children would be amazing for me. I like to create fun activities for kids like creating art, playing games, just activities that would keep them busy! I have a BLS certification as well. I am very patient with kids, so I think my personality is perfect for babysitting!

Vanessa $22 per hour for 1 child

I am a caring, dependable, and energetic caregiver with a strong passion for working with children of all ages. I have over 7+ years of experience. My experience caring for kids has taught me the importance of patience, creativity, and consistency in creating a safe and nurturing environment where children can thrive. I enjoy engaging with kids through play, learning activities, and routines that encourage growth, independence, and confidence. I bring excellent communication and problem-solving skills, allowing me to connect easily with both children and parents. Whether helping with homework, preparing healthy meals, organizing fun activities, or maintaining structure throughout the day, I approach every task with enthusiasm and attention to detail. In addition to my child care experience, I’ve also provided support to seniors, pets, and households—skills that have strengthened my ability to multitask, stay organized, and adapt to different needs and personalities. My compassionate nature and dependable work ethic make me someone families can trust to care for their children. I take pride in being reliable, positive, and calm under pressure, always putting the safety and well-being of children first while fostering a warm, loving environment that encourages learning and joy every day.

"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!"
