Howdy! I’m originally from Texas and moved to Los Angeles in 2012 to start a new chapter — and I’ve been here ever since. With over 15 years of experience caring for children from newborns to preteens, I’ve had the joy of supporting many families through their childcare journeys. I look forward to helping with yours next!

Taylor $24 per hour for 1 child

I am a dedicated and compassionate caregiver with over two years of professional experience working in private homes, state facilities, and hospital settings, including Kaiser Permanente. My background spans caring for children of various ages and needs, with a strong emphasis on safety, emotional support, and enrichment. Internationally, I have participated in mission and mentorship programs throughout the Philippines and Thailand, supporting underserved and at-risk children through education, structured activities, and positive guidance. I have supervised classrooms of up to seven children at a time, led mentorship programs for troubled youth, and organized community initiatives such as beach cleanups and educational surf programs that encouraged both discipline and joy. In addition to my caregiving experience, I am currently a holistic chef working with a luxury hotel, where I specialize in creating mindful, nourishing snacks and developing healthy eating habits for children, including those who are selective or hesitant eaters. I enjoy making daily routines fun, engaging, and meaningful while fostering curiosity, confidence, and healthy habits. I am passionate about supporting children’s growth in a way that feels safe, exciting, and nurturing, and I truly value opportunities where I can make a positive impact in a child’s life.

Nicole $22 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Nicole, and I’m a responsible, caring, and dependable college student based in the La Crescenta area. I genuinely enjoy working with kids, helping families, and creating a safe and positive environment. I’m patient, energetic, organized, and easy to communicate with, and I always try to make sure both parents and children feel comfortable and supported. Services I offer include babysitting, nannying, pet care, homework help, light housekeeping, organizing, errands, and helping around the house as needed. Child Care: I have experience caring for children of different ages and personalities, and I enjoy building fun, trusting relationships with kids while still keeping structure and safety a priority. I love doing activities like crafts, games, outdoor play, movie nights, baking, reading, and helping with homework or school projects. I’m also happy to help with routines like meals, bedtime, and keeping kids entertained in a positive way. Some of my strengths include being very patient, emotionally understanding, creative, and attentive. I can also help with tutoring/homework, basic cooking and snacks, and keeping things organized and clean while babysitting. Pet Care: I’m comfortable around a variety of pets and have experience helping care for dogs, cats, and other household pets. I can help with walking, feeding, playing, cleaning up after pets, and making sure they feel comfortable and cared for. I’m also comfortable with larger dogs and pets that shed. Household Services: In addition to childcare and pet care, I’m happy to assist with light housekeeping tasks such as laundry, tidying up, dishes, organizing, meal prep, errands, and helping keep the home running smoothly. I’m reliable, detail-oriented, and always willing to help where needed. I’m looking forward to connecting with families and helping out however I can!
