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.
Hi, my name is Ursula and I'm an experienced nanny with 10 years on and off and 3 years with one high-end family. I have toddler experience and care for kids ages 8, 9, and 11. I’m happy to help with light housekeeping, school drop-off/pick-up, and meal prep. Looking for extra days Mondays, Thursdays, and every other Saturday.
Hi, my name is Alex. I am 26, and offering child care, senior care, pet care, household & prep/ cooking services. I love kids, as my sister has a 1 year old, and I am a godparent to my aunts 7 year old. I am vegan for 9 years now, but that does not stop me; I have cooked for friends and families who majority eat regular foods. Also looking if anyone wants a chef, I love to cook. Currently with 1 family on Monday & Wednesday. I used to be in camp during the summers/winters when i was young. Then I became a camp counselor at the same camps that I went, when I was allowed and of age. I realized I love taking care of kids and did that for a couple years. I also used to volunteer at an elderly home for Alzheimer’s and retired patients during high school. I am familiar with more of being a friend, company while engaging with them, and playing games like bingo. Those were more my duties there. I’m fantastic at games, even blackjack and card games. I can drive to/from school, homework, crafts, tutoring, errands, clean/tidy up. I have a dog of mine, and used to have a cat with an ex partner, so very familiar with pets as well. I love both very much.
Hi! My name is Olivia, and I bring over 7 years of healthcare experience, including my background as a NICU nurse in the Philippines and as a Medical Virtual Assistant. My experience has allowed me to care for newborns, children, adults, and seniors, giving me a strong understanding of the importance of safety, patience, compassion, and dependable care. I’m happy to assist families with childcare, senior care, companionship, light housekeeping, meal preparation, and everyday activities. I’m responsible, organized, attentive, and always mindful of each person’s individual needs and comfort. My healthcare background has taught me how to remain calm and prepared in different situations while providing care with kindness and respect. I understand that inviting someone into your home is a big decision, and my goal is to give families peace of mind knowing their loved ones are in caring and capable hands. I would love the opportunity to learn more about your family and how I can help make your day a little easier!
Hi my name is Cathleen. I am in my second year working at an after school daycare where I work with primarily 7-9 year olds but have experience working with all elementary school ages. In this job I have worked with kids on the spectrum, kids with behavioral issues, and have acquired a wide variety of skills to engage children. I have my certification in CPR and am currently taking classes at College of the Canyons to further my career in working with children. Pet sitting I have been doing for over 3 years now and have lots of experience taking care of dogs, cats, snakes, guinea pigs and more! I have given medication to animals, stayed at houses and have had animals stay at mine!
