Vanessa $22 per hour for 1 child

I am a caring, dependable, and energetic caregiver with a strong passion for working with children of all ages. I have over 7+ years of experience. My experience caring for kids has taught me the importance of patience, creativity, and consistency in creating a safe and nurturing environment where children can thrive. I enjoy engaging with kids through play, learning activities, and routines that encourage growth, independence, and confidence. I bring excellent communication and problem-solving skills, allowing me to connect easily with both children and parents. Whether helping with homework, preparing healthy meals, organizing fun activities, or maintaining structure throughout the day, I approach every task with enthusiasm and attention to detail. In addition to my child care experience, I’ve also provided support to seniors, pets, and households—skills that have strengthened my ability to multitask, stay organized, and adapt to different needs and personalities. My compassionate nature and dependable work ethic make me someone families can trust to care for their children. I take pride in being reliable, positive, and calm under pressure, always putting the safety and well-being of children first while fostering a warm, loving environment that encourages learning and joy every day.

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!

Cameron 2 reviews
$30 per hour for 1 child

Hi there! I’m Cameron: a native Angeleno, University of New Orleans graduate, part-time screenwriter, and personal assistant/caregiver who truly loves helping folks (and their furry friends) feel seen and supported. I have years of experience dog-sitting pups of all temperaments, energy levels, and special medical/behavioral needs. No two doggos are the same and I take pride in adapting to each one’s unique routine. I also absolutely love animals so taking care of them is a win-win on all fronts. While I used to sit my little cousins, I recently became a godfather and now have experience babysitting the littlest of babies, too, meaning I’m comfortable caring for kids of all ages with patience, structure, and a sense of fun. I do weekly in-home care for individuals with disabilities, which has taught me the importance of empathy, patience, and clear communication. Like I mentioned earlier, I'm also a trained personal assistant backed by years working in a high-intensity, high-demand TV show writers' room. In addition to the usual household assistant duties, I excel at managing schedules, arranging travel, running errands, and keeping spaces tidy and organized (thank you, diagnosed OCD). I can cook (quite well), clean, problem-solve with the best of them, and am lucky to have built up a long list of happy clients who would be even happier to vouch for me! Have any questions or need a bit more info? Don’t hesitate to reach out!

“Simply put, you will never find a more responsible human than Cameron. I've worked with him multiple times, and he has never failed to meet my exacting standards. He's reliable, professional, and also a truly kind human being. He's taken amazing care of our two dogs and our house on multiple occasions and always leave your abode spotless. Truly, you'll be lucky to get to work with him.”

"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!"
