Deborah $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi, my name is Deborah Cohen and I would be happy to help out childcare and pet care. I have over 8 years experience taking care of children. I started off volunteering in my teens at my local church, taking care of multiple children of all ages. I eventually took care of a sweet little girl until she was 5 years old. I currently help out a family taking care of two boys. I enjoy being outside with kids, reading with them and playing games. I have experience with homework help, meal planning, baking, and doing crafts. I enjoy interacting with kids and I’m very patient. I also have experience with taking care of cats and dogs. I’ve grown up with animals and then was a pet sitter for my sister. I’ve done pet sitting for several years and have experience with dog walking, distributing medication, and feeding. I’m also open to house sitting. I look forward to helping out in any way

Claire $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’ve been a nanny for many wonderful families for 8 years now. I have primarily worked with children under 5 but have experience with all ages. I’m extremely passionate about children learning through play and exploration with limited screen time. This can be anything from imagination games to more structured academic play. I have a degree in theater from the Liverpool Institute for performing arts where I learned a great appreciation for a nice walk doing wonders for the soul. I am currently with a family with two boys three days out of the week but hoping to fill in a few more hours. I am CPR certified with a clean driving record.

Eden $22 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I am an LA transplant from the Washington, DC area. I have years of experience working with children of busy corporate and government employees during the summers when school is out. I'm a big kid myself--I love video games and outdoor activities! I am a former cheerleader and gymnast and love playing sports with little ones. One of my first jobs was at a sports complex where I taught children from 18 months-5 years old motor skills playing soccer! Working with children is a joy for me. I also have lots of experience with cats, bigger dogs, and turtles! (Fun fact: I grew up with a turtle that is now 25 years old) I am open to the opportunity to care for alternative pets as well.

Hi! My name is Nataliia. I’m a caring, reliable, and energetic babysitter with experience working with children of all ages, including kids with special needs (global developmental delay, Down syndrome, autism, and behavioral challenges). I have a strong background in early childhood care, safety routines, and creating a calm, structured environment. I’m patient, attentive, and always focused on each child’s individual needs. I can support communication, sensory regulation, and daily routines, and I’m comfortable managing unexpected situations. I’m available for one-time babysitting, evenings, weekends, and last-minute bookings. Looking forward to helping your family feel supported and safe!

Rose $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi there! I’m Rose and I’m currently a FT teacher. A little about me: I am a cat mom of 2 adorable babies, born and raised in Los Angeles. I am a fluent English & Korean speaker and conversational in Spanish. I’ve helped run our daycare business with my mother for the past 15+ years in the heart of LA. I completed my undergrad at Parsons in NYC. While studying, I had numerous babysitting/teaching gigs. I’ve taken ECE courses at UCLA extension. I am currently in the process of obtaining my Child Development teachers permit. I am also a private tutor specializing in bilingual education and art. I have some experience with special needs children, more specifically autism and ADHD. My senses are sharp and reflexes quick. My background in art and design inspires me to find creative ways to teach and interact with children. I love children’s curious nature to never stop learning and strive to be like them in this way. I look forward to helping out with your little one/s!
