Stevana $23 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Evie and I am 21 years old. I am a student at Cañada College majoring in Social Work. My passions include working with kids, art, and cooking. My five years of professional childcare experience include working summer camps, being a teachers assistant, working at two daycares, babysitting, and tutoring. I have worked with kids of all ages. When I show up for work I will always show up prepared. I often will plan crafts and activities that the kiddo will like. In the past I've taken my kiddos to the park. I am happy to cook, clean, and provide transportation regularly or as needed. I also am happy to help with homework. I have a safe car and a clean driving record. I hope you consider me as an option to be your babysitter!

Hi all, I am a graduate student and have just finished 8 years as a high school teacher. I have over 10 years of childcare experience and I am looking for a family to support as I complete my graduate program. I have experience working with families with kids ranging in age from newborn-teens. In the past I have managed a summer camp, taught outdoor education, worked as a full-time nanny, and now I am a teacher. I am active, caring and creative and enjoy spending time outside, crafts, cooking, and more. I am looking forward to getting to know your family!

Hi! I'm Maya, a senior at Chapman University studying Computer Science and Neuroscience. I am looking for a part time job for the summer. I've been babysitting for 7 years, mostly with elementary-aged kids. My responsibilities have included driving kids to/from activities, crafts, and light cleaning/cooking. I also have two younger siblings, 11 and 19, and being a big sister has taught me patience and empathy. I enjoy the wild imagination that kids have as well as their endless amounts of energy! I'm warm, responsible and make it my first priority to create a safe and positive environment for the kids I care for.

Maya was wonderful with our children. She helped them bring art projects to life, she helped them eat their vegetables, she was gentle and kind with skinned knees. We hired her for a summer babysitting job and got to know her over three months. I highly recommend her!!

Maya $26 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Maya, and I’m a 20-year-old junior at UCLA, double majoring in Architecture and Geography. I’m originally from San Francisco and currently living in Los Angeles for school. I have several years of experience babysitting and have also worked as a camp counselor at the Bay Club for multiple summers, where I supervised groups of children of different ages, planned activities, handled conflict resolution, and ensured a safe and fun environment. Through this experience, I’ve developed strong skills in communication, patience, organization, creativity, and responsibility. I genuinely love working with kids and enjoy engaging them in games, crafts, outdoor activities, and homework help. I’m calm under pressure, attentive to children’s needs, and always prioritize safety while making sure kids feel supported and happy. I’m also very comfortable with pets and dog sitting, as I love animals and have experience caring for them as well. Whether it’s babysitting, caregiving, or pet sitting, I’m reliable, punctual, and take pride in being someone families can trust. I’d love the opportunity to support your family, feel free to reach out!

"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!"
