Caring for a child means supporting their safety, growth, and emotional well-being with consistency, respect, and compassion. I bring those values to every family I serve. I am an experienced, energetic caregiver and mother, CPR/AED and CPI certified, with formal study in child development as part of my degree requirements. I am active, dependable, and thrive in supportive, structured environments that help children build confidence, healthy habits, and strong social skills. Beyond my professional experience, I volunteer with children in the special needs community and youth sports, which has strengthened my ability to adapt, lead with patience, and respond calmly in high-stress situations. I take pride in being fair, trustworthy, and genuinely invested in each child’s well-being. I would be honored to support your family and provide a loving, safe, and encouraging environment for your loved one.

Hello! It’s great to meet you ! I work as a substitute teacher during the school year and pick up occasional jobs here as well. I teach Kindergarten through twelfth grade and am very familiar and comfortable with that wide age range! Besides that, I have also worked in other school districts as an after school leader, where I was used to working one on one with students as well as leading large groups of kiddos as well. I have also nannied for a family with two babies, ages 2 1/2 and 9 months until I started working as a permanent substitute. I find kids’ energetic and kind personalities a joy to be around and I love working with kids for those reasons! I have a clean driving record and happily offer pickup and drop off from school if needed. I can offer school related assistance including homework help, arts and crafts, light tidying around the household, and anything else that I may be of help in. My priority is always to ensure that this is a great experience for both the family and children, as for me as a caretaker! Please let me know if you have any questions or concerns and I will be more than happy to answer them! I am excited to meet you and potentially work with your family and little ones! I am fully vaccinated as well as have all of the boosters and am CPR Certified for all ages.

Hello, my name is Ashley. I am punctual, trustworthy, energetic, and patient. I am bilingual in Spanish and fluently speak it as well. I have been babysitting for neighbors since I was a teen. Now, my nanny families come from word of mouth. I have worked with children in various settings (as a tutor, therapist, & teacher's assistant). I enjoy spending time outdoors, doing crafts, and creative play. I have watched children as young as three weeks old and up to younger adults (with autism and intellectual disabilities). I have experience watching multiple children at a time. I have taken child development courses and am certified in Adult, Child, and Infant, Pediatric CPR/AED and First Aid.

“Always kind, professional and great with the kids.”

I have over 30 years of experience as a caregiver to children, pets and the elderly. I have been responsible for multiples, pick-ups, drop-offs, meals, homework help, bathing, bedtime and overnight stays. I am an animal lover so I am more than happy to help with pet sitting and care as well. I also have experience working with special needs children. I was previously an Intensive Behavior Instructional Assistant for the Garden Grove Unified School District for over 8 years. I have my AA in Social & Behavioral Science, Child & Adolescent Development and Psychology. ***My per child amount is always negotiable.

“Elizabeth helped me with my new puppy and old cranky pup and was very reliable. She communicated well, was on time and my pups were very happy when I got home. I would definitely use her again.”

Hi, I'm a college student who loves to help others! When I’m not working with children at a museum, I’m looking after families like yours. I use empathy, patience, and years of experience to care for your loved ones. I have reliable transportation and am always ready on short notice. I’d love to meet and assist you in any way possible!

“Ruby is a wonderful babysitter—calm, intelligent, and compassionate. She quickly understands what needs to be done, takes initiative without being asked, and is always ready to help in any situation. Her thoughtful and gentle approach creates a safe, happy environment for children, and her quick thinking gives parents peace of mind. Highly recommended. ”
