Hailey $23 per hour for 1 child

I have over 6 years of childcare and 2 years of infant care experience. I have cared for children of various ages, which has helped me develop patience, reliability, strong communication skills, and a nurturing approach. I also have work experience with children of special needs and those on the spectrum. I am CPR and first aid certified, I am attentive, compassionate, and organized, with a natural ability to build trust and create a safe, positive environment. My experience includes supervising daily activities, homework help/tutoring, assisting with routines, meal preps, light household tasks relating to the child’s needs or any pet needs. I love animals and strongly believe that pets are a part of the family. In previous years I have helped with taking pets for walks, assisting with medical needs such as shots or giving medications with meals, as well as keeping them company while family members are traveling. I genuinely enjoy helping others and am eager to bring the same level of care, companionship, and dependability to any family that requires help.

Jayda $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi, I am Jayda! I have spent the last three years working as a pediatric dental assistant with over 3,000 hours of hands on experience with children ranging from 6 months to 19 years old. Working with kids is not something I fell into, it is something I have actively pursued my whole life through volunteering, mission work, and now graduate school. I hold a BA in Biology and am currently enrolled in a Master's program in Occupational Therapy with a pediatric focus because working with children is truly my calling. I have extensive experience with high needs children including those with ADHD, autism, and sensory processing disorders. I know how to read a child, meet them where they are, and turn a hard moment into a good one. I am calm under pressure and genuinely love the challenge of connecting with kids who need a little extra patience and creativity. Beyond my clinical background I have volunteered at a children's museum, taught Sunday school, and traveled to Jamaica to lead a sports camp for underprivileged youth. I grew up on a small farm in upstate New York in a tight knit small town community where neighbors looked out for each other and family came first. That upbringing gave me a grounded, nurturing nature that I carry into everything I do with kids. I am BLS and First Aid certified, comfortable preparing home cooked meals, and experienced cooking for dietary restrictions including gluten free. If you are looking for someone who is warm, reliable, highly experienced, and will genuinely invest in your children, I would love to connect with your family.

Sadie $22 per hour for 1 child

Hello, My name is Sadie, I am 19 years old and am currently studying early childhood education at Orange Coast College. I live in Newport Beach, across from the Back Bay and graduated from Newport Harbor High School. I worked for 5+ years as a childcare provider for a local family of three boys (ranging in ages from 4-9), assisting with light house cleaning, meal preparation, and transporting to activities. I also have interned at the Environmental Nature Center as an assistant for the early childhood program (Little Naturalists and Mini Naturalists) and summer camp. I have two rescue dogs and can assist with meal preparation, walks, and medication for family pets. I am not familiar with caring for cats but am open to learning and love all animals. In my spare time I enjoy doing art, sewing, crocheting, etc. I enjoy creating activities for children and encourage outdoor time. I look forward to meeting you and your families!
