Azalia $25 per hour for 1 child

My name is Azalia and I am currently in my last semester of school. I am offering babysitting and dog-sitting services. I believe that I am great with kids and I enjoy creating a fun space for them. I have experience caring for toddlers between the ages of 3 and 6 years old and limited experience with caring for infants. I eventually want to become a child therapist after graduating from college, so having more experience with children would be amazing for me. I like to create fun activities for kids like creating art, playing games, just activities that would keep them busy! I have a BLS certification as well. I am very patient with kids, so I think my personality is perfect for babysitting!

Natalie $20 per hour for 1 child

I am a third year college student at Ca State Dominguez Hills and I’m majoring in Advertising and Public Relations. I have been taking care of kids ages 0-3 for the last 2 years. I have always loved helping people so becoming a nanny came very naturally. I love reading so reading to babies it’s very beneficial for their language development and fun for me!

Hi! I'm Polly. I work in the film industry and also teach yoga in the early mornings. I own a small business where I lead children's yoga, Mommy & Me classes, and arts and crafts experiences designed to encourage creativity, confidence, and mindfulness. I'm a creative person who loves working with children and creating fun, engaging, and safe environments where they can learn and grow. For the past three and a half years, I've worked as a part-time nanny with multiple families from different backgrounds and have built strong, long-term relationships with them. I have excellent references available upon request. I'm comfortable with pets, have a clean driving record, and am a confident driver. I speak English, Portuguese, and Spanish, which allows me to connect with families from diverse backgrounds. I'd love the opportunity to support your family :)

“Polly is a wonderful caregiver! She has cared for my 5 year old son and 3 year old daughter many times and they absolutely adore her. Polly is able to adapt to their different interests and personalities perfectly. I highly recommend Polly, she’s a gem!”

Youn $25 per hour for 1 child

I have various experience with children from teaching after school enrichment to elementary school kids, to tutoring elementary through high school kids, to working summer camp, and babysitting over the years. I enjoy watching kids grow in creativity and character. I like to encourage children in their gifts. I like to work on children’s individualism. I also am a pet sitter and an auntie to many fur babies and kids. I am the friend that everybody asks to watch their pets while they’re out of town. I very much enjoy pets and children and have a lot of experience in both. I have my certification for Adult and Pediatric First Aid/CPR/AED. I also have clearance to work at several schools in the area as part of my background check for the after school enrichment program. Please reach out if you’d like to discuss further. Schedule is pretty flexible and changing, so open to discuss. Thank you! Youn

Hi families! I’m Ki! I have three years of experience caring for children ages 4 and up, working with multiple families and getting to know kids with all kinds of personalities! I’d describe myself as energetic, empathetic, patient, and creative. I love bringing a little imagination into everyday activities, whether that means coming up with fun games, getting crafty, or turning an ordinary afternoon into an adventure! I’m currently pursuing my MBA at UCLA and outside of school, I’ve always enjoyed connecting with people and making a positive difference in their lives. I’m also a proud dog mom to my pitbull, Mozzy, so I understand how important it is to have someone you trust caring for your pets, too! Above all, I want families to feel at ease knowing their loved ones are with someone who is attentive, dependable, and genuinely cares. I’d love the opportunity to get to know your family!

“I wholeheartedly recommend Ki as a babysitter. She is one of the most genuine, honest, sweet, attentive, and loving people you could ever meet. Children naturally gravitate toward her, and it is easy to see why—they feel loved, comfortable, and genuinely cared for in her presence. After losing my grandmother during COVID, who was such an important source of support in my life, I was terrified and understandably nervous about having someone else care for my child. Having Ki there for us was truly a blessing. The love, reassurance, and peace of mind she gave me as a parent meant more than words can express. My child still talks about how much he misses her presence and how much he loved spending time with her. That speaks volumes about the kind of person she is and the lasting impression she leaves on children. She is trustworthy, dependable, nurturing, and truly exceptional. I would confidently recommend her to any family looking for someone who will care for their children with genuine love and compassion. Any child would be lucky to have her, and any parent would be fortunate to have the peace of mind that comes with knowing their little one is in such loving hands. She is truly the best!”
