Booked by 1 family in Surfside, CA

I am the oldest of seven children and an aunt of two. I've been caring for children since I was 13. My experience includes working at a daycare and several summer camps. I love all children, am patient, and strongly believe that children deserve the best. I believe children should express themselves and fun with their creativity, while also in a structured environment. No child is the same and they all need different care, I am excited to meet you and your little one(s). Hopefully we can get in contact soon.

Booked by 1 family in Surfside, CA

Hi, my name is Kristyna. I’m a reliable and caring babysitter with several years of hands-on experience working with children of different ages. I spent 2 years as an au pair, where I provided full-time care—managing daily routines, organizing activities, helping with meals, and creating a safe, fun environment for kids to thrive. I genuinely enjoy spending time with children and aim to keep them engaged, happy, and well cared for while giving parents peace of mind. I’m patient, responsible, and attentive to each child’s individual needs and personality. I’m currently looking for date night babysitting opportunities and occasional help. I’m happy to assist with light housekeeping, bedtime routines, homework, and fun activities to keep your kids entertained.

Chelsea Long Beach
$19 per hour for 1 child

Hi, my name is Chelsea. I am 20 years old and a current college student at CSULB. Originally, I am from Riverside, where I get most of my babysitting experience. Professionally I worked with several companies that provide childcare to several different types of children, including those with learning and physical disabilities. I currently work with the YMCA at an elementary school. In this role, I am responsible for 20 students, making sure they complete their homework and providing snacks/supper and enrichment lessons to further their education. Education is very important to me as someone working with kids. Outside of childcare, I do have experience with small dogs and cats and have no problem providing household services. I look forward to working with you and your family. :)

Hi I'm Kimberly! I've been a mother for 12 years. I have multiple children, and have always been the go-to babysitter for friends and family. I enjoy having littles around, as do my children. I believe parents know best, and thus I try my best to provide a personalized approach to each child based on the family's needs.

"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!"
