Tashionna 1 review
$30 per hour for 1 child

Hi there, my name is Tashi, I’ve been working with children and seniors for about a decade. I’m a total people’s person so I absolutely love what I do. I know that it is imperative to help the children are seniors that I’m working with to challenge themselves every day. I can help with a variety of things, cooking, cleaning and errands.

“We've met a number of different childcare providers, but no one like Tashionna. Our kids LOVE her! She is so good with them, our youngest always asks "when is Tashionna coming back?!" As parents, we appreciate that she is always reliable and professional. She also helps us out when we need a little extra flexibility. Every parent knows the value of that! Tashionna is bilingual and has been teaching our kids some Spanish. That was something we hadn't thought about, but the educational value of it was a nice surprise. Our oldest is in high school now and he really excels in his foreign language class, I know she was a big influence. She's a fantastic care-giver, we highly recommend her. - Claire”

Bianca $18 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Bianca. I am 23 years old from the SFV area. I’ve been around kids my whole life. Starting since elementary school in 5th grade I was a “buddy” for the younger students because of my love and attention for children. I’ve worked with the City of LA for a couple of years now working at Canoga Park Youth Art Center for kids as well as Reseda Park recreation in the past as a CIT for the summer camp. I occasionally baby sit family members/friends kids. I love spending time the future generation and kids tend to warm up to me quickly. I’m responsible, have a 4 seater car and valid CA DL. I also love animals like of all kinds I have 3 of my own 2 dogs and a cat. I also love to clean and organize.

Hello! I bring decades of experience to your family as I am a mother, and I babysit my nieces and nephews. I am well versed in STEM-based teaching curriculum and arts-based learning. I hold a UCLA degree and am fully fluent in English and Spanish. I am also a trained birth doula to support new parents. I also successfully raised my son, who is now in college. Aside from babysitting, I am willing to run errands and do your family’s grocery shopping. I am community-minded and recently won an award from the LA County for Human Relations - LA vs Hate project, I love to laugh, teach children how to read, write and do crafts and art projects. I can also teach your children some basic capoeira moves. I am willing to commute kids to school and prepare healthy meals.

Booked by 3 families in Sherman Oaks, CA

Hello! I am a PhD Student in Sociology, where I focus on the sociology of childhood and education. Beyond my research, I have had lots of experience working with kids - casually as a babysitter, but also more formally at a variety of summer camps. I am new to Los Angeles (from London, England) and have enjoyed exploring all the wonderful parks and enjoying the sun. Hope I can do more with your child(ren) sometime soon :)

“Kids immediately warmed to Lara and had such fun playing with her! Will definitely hire again. ”
