Devon 1 review
$30 per hour for 1 child

I am a dedicated TK Para with a strong professional background in healthcare and behavioral health. I thrive in supportive roles and believe in the power of nurturing environments. My passion truly lies in working with children, | absolutely love kids! This is fueled by my own experience as a mother to two wonderful boys, aged 5 and 14. Balancing the energy of a kindergartner with the curiosity of a teenager gives me unique perspective, patience, and enthusiasm that I bring into both my professional and personal life. I am committed to helping children learn, grow, and succeed! In addition to helping children learn and grow, I can help with light housework work as well as cook and meal preparation.

We’ve had such a great experience with Devon! She’s watched my 3-year-old a few times now for date nights, and each time my daughter has been comfortable, happy, and well cared for. The biggest compliment is that my daughter asked for her again, which says everything. Devon did art projects with my little one, and when we came home there was so much beautiful artwork they had created together. She also cooked my daughter’s dinner and cleaned up, which I truly appreciated. I felt completely at ease leaving my child in her care and would absolutely recommend her to any family looking for a kind, engaging, and trustworthy babysitter.

Katrina 1 review
$27 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I have been working as a child care provider in an array of settings since 2019. After graduating with a BA is psychology from Chapman University I began working as a Nanny as well as becoming a preschool teacher. I fell in love with the Early Educational field and have been working with kids ever since. I have many years experience as a lead teacher for ages infant to pre-k and have worked closely with families to ensure positive and healthy environments for social, emotional and physical growth. I am currently getting my masters in counseling and have been working closely with elementary and middle school aged children as well. I love all things arts, creativity and imagination. In my free time I like to hike and explore new areas around where I live :) I hope to connect and be able to continue to be a positive person for those I work with!

Katrina is the absolute BEST. She was a preschool teacher for both of my boys and they adore her. She is kind, patient, loving, and responsible. She has amazing communication skills and loves teaching kids. She is amazing with all personality types and is reassuring to even the most reluctant kids. My kids love spending time with her.

"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!"
