Evita $30 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Evita, and I'm a graduate student at USC pursuing my Master's in Marriage and Family Therapy after earning my degree in Psychology. I offer babysitting, tutoring, homework help, and light household assistance, and I'm passionate about creating a safe, fun, and supportive environment for children. I have experience working with children ages 3–5 through a community program where I helped build social-emotional skills, school readiness, healthy routines, and positive learning experiences. In addition to childcare, I enjoy helping with homework, reading, arts and crafts, educational activities, meal preparation, and keeping children engaged in creative play. As a psychology student and former teacher assistent I'm patient, dependable, and comfortable helping children learn while making sure they feel encouraged and cared for. Families can count on me to be responsible, attentive, and communicative. My goal is to provide dependable care that gives parents peace of mind while making sure every child feels safe, happy, and supported.

I have 10+ years of experience for newborn-11 years old, have a PhD in engineering, tutor/professor experience, and am BLS, CPR, and NREMT certified. I’m a fun, reliable, and caring babysitter who loves working with children of all ages—from tiny tots to teens! Whether it’s bedtime stories, overnights, or busy after-school evenings, I’m here to make your routines smoother and your kids feel safe, happy, and loved. 💕 I’m all about creating engaging educational activities, and am also happy to cook, help tidy up, and keep things running smoothly so parents can relax knowing everything’s taken care of on date nights out of the house!

“Jamie took wonderful care of our toddler. She was able to watch him, take him to the playground, feed him dinner, do bath time and put him to sleep to allow us to have a relaxing date night. She shared pictures during the whole time and sent updates. She is wonderful with kids and we will hire her again! ”
