My name is Bridget! I am an entertainment industry professional who has almost 17 years of childcare experience. I am available on weekday evenings and weekends. I am offering child care, and needed household services. I have been both a date night and evening babysitter and also have worked as a full-time nanny. I have experience caring for newborns, infants, toddlers, and kids. I am also open to household care work while being there including cleaning, cooking etc. I am friendly with pets (mainly dogs and cats) and willing to care for the animals while at your home.
Hello! 👋 I love working with children and making family life smoother! I have experience with 2+ and up; Plus some hands-on time with toddlers and babies through church nursery volunteering. I am committed to providing a nurturing and safe environment for children. :)
“Grace was really calm, respectful and engaging with our toddler! ”
I’m so happy to be a nanny! I’ve had the pleasure of caring for infants, toddlers, and older kids. My job involved supporting families with their children’s needs, such as feeding, helping them learn, and making sure they had fun with walks to the park or library, or even driving them to and from school. I speak both English and Spanish, and I’m CPR certified with a clean driving record. I have my own transportation with a clean driving record; else, I’m a non-smoker. I’m also quite flexible with my schedule and can work some weekends. Sorry I don’t have too many reviews, but I’ve been working with the same families for a while.
“Ana was great and flexible with my changing schedule. She was kind and communicative and went above and beyond to help out ”

Hi! My name is Brenda. I absolutely love working with children and creating supportive, engaging, and meaningful experiences for them. I’ve been babysitting since I was 12 years old and have had the joy of caring for some of the same children all the way through their high school years. Building real relationships with families and watching kids grow has been one of the most rewarding parts of my journey. I currently babysit for a wonderful family of three children ages 6, 9, and 12, where I support with dinner, evening routines like reading together, and fun outdoor adventures including hiking and exploring nature. I also occasionally take two girls on cultural and educational excursions around the city, helping them learn through experiences, curiosity, and discovery. I hold a degree in World Arts and Cultures from UCLA, which allows me to bring creativity, storytelling, movement, and arts activities into the time I spend with kids. I value imagination, kindness, learning, and creating an uplifting environment where kids feel safe and supported. For families with teens, I’m also happy to support with college preparation, including guidance on admissions written statements and helping students express their stories and strengths confidently as my professional training centers around supporting students. I’m reliable, patient, nurturing, and genuinely enjoy being part of a child’s world. I would love to support your family, too!
“Brenda helped me with an apartment cleaning job - she was on time and very thorough, and she always had a smile on her face. She's great!”
