Jessica $20 per hour for 1 child

I have a full time office job but have free time in the evenings and weekends. I helped raise my sister while my parents worked since I was 13 so I do have experience just not professionally. I used to dog-sit for a couple of years before I moved back to my hometown.

Leanne $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi my name is Leanne! I am 19 years old and I go to Pasadena City College. I am majoring in Nursing to become a Labor and Delivery Nurse. I have my license and a car so if transportation is needed, I am more than happy to help. I have 3 years of experience with children from the infant stages to teenagers. I have 5 siblings from the ages of 1 to 14 so I am experienced with bottle feeding and changing diapers to helping with homework and making sure they're fed. I also work at Boys and Girls Club and I mainly work with TK/Kinders! I have always loved engaging children in fun and educational activities! I am reliable, responsible, and will always prioritize the safety of the children I care for. My goal is to create a positive and enjoyable environment for your children while you are away! Thank you so much for viewing my application! I'm excited to get to know you and your family in any way I can!

I am a third year college student at Ca State Dominguez Hills and I’m majoring in Advertising and Public Relations. I have been taking care of kids ages 0-3 for the last 2 years. I have always loved helping people so becoming a nanny came very naturally. I love reading so reading to babies it’s very beneficial for their language development and fun for me!

"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!"
