$25 per hour for 1 child

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!”
