Booked by 24 families in Chandler, AZ

Hi! I’m Lauren 🙂. I graduated from ASU with my Bachelors in Elementary Education in 2006 and I have 10 years of experience as a substitute teacher with K-12. I also love animals!! I grew up with dogs and cats and recently had a belgian malinois/boxer mix so I am used to dogs who need extra attention :) I am currently a full time teacher and I am looking to supplement my income occasionally on the weekends or possibly week nights. I love working with children and have over 15 years experience as a babysitter/nanny with all ages. I feel that I can provide an excellent learning environment that is very interactive and help kids stay physically active as well!

This was my 1st time using anyone other than family. From the minute Lauren walked in the door I could sense her warm temperament. My 2 year old adored her and I will be booking Lauren again. She’s wonderful!

Hi, my name is Adela! I’m 52 years old and offer both child care and senior care services. As a proud mom of three (all grown now!), I homeschooled them all the way through high school, so I’ve spent many years caring for and guiding children through all stages of development. I truly love being around kids, playing age-appropriate games, reading together, doing crafts, or even heading out to classes or appointments. I’m happy to prepare simple, healthy meals and I’m also very comfortable with pets, so I’d be glad to help care for them too. While I don’t have professional senior care experience, I’m a kind, attentive, and compassionate person who is happy to offer companionship and support when needed. I’m CPR and First Aid certified, and I always keep safety as a top priority. I’m also a Christian and attend Central Christian Church, and I try to bring patience, honesty, and a warm heart into every home I enter. I’d love the chance to support your family and bring a sense of calm, care, and consistency to your daily routine. Please feel free to reach out if you’d like to chat or ask any questions!

I would recommend Adela to anyone who needs a caring and kind person to look after their babies. She was punctual and brought a very calm presence to my household. She’s knowledgeable and patient. I am happy she was able to watch my 10 month old.

$18 per hour for 1 child

With over 10 years of dedicated experience in child care, I’ve had the privilege of working with children across various age groups—from infants to elementary-aged youth. My journey began with hands-on infant care, where I gained extensive experience in feeding, diaper changing, creating soothing routines, and supporting early developmental milestones in a nurturing, safe environment. As I grew in the field, I expanded my role to caring for toddlers and preschool-aged children, guiding them through potty training, language development, and structured play. I’ve always aimed to foster a sense of independence while still offering a warm, supportive presence that encourages confidence and curiosity. In addition to early childhood care, I’ve worked in elementary school settings, teaching kindergarten and first grade. I’ve developed and led classroom activities, managed group dynamics, and supported both academic and emotional growth. I’ve also worked in group homes for older children and adults, providing behavioral support, structure, and a consistent presence for those navigating life transitions or additional needs. My approach to child care is rooted in empathy, patience, and respect. I understand that every child is unique, and I take pride in creating safe, engaging, and inclusive spaces where they can grow and thrive. Whether supporting families in the home, a classroom, or specialized care settings, I bring a strong sense of responsibility, creativity, and heart to everything I do.
