Booked by 1 family in Huntington Park, CA

I aim to bring a sense of calm to busy families and always look for ways to ease parents' mental load by helping around the house. I've cared for kids of all ages from infants to teenagers and love finding fun and creative ways to engage kids in imaginative play. Whether your kids love sports, science, art, music, or maybe a cool niche hobby I've never heard of, I'm ready to meet them where they're at offering my full presence and attention.

“Our daughter absolutely loves Kat!! We feel so grateful and lucky!!! Kat has such great energy and presence! She’s completely engaged with our daughter and a wonderful person too! Reliable, sweet and a natural with kids! We couldn’t ask for anything more in a babysitter!! Beyond happy and thank you sooo much!! ”

Shannan $30 per hour for 1 child

Hello, I'm Shannan, an artistpreneuer, here to help you relieve any scheduling pressure. I was a reading interventionist for 5 years for Marietta School System in Atlanta. I've also remotely tutored elementary age students with Reading Partners LA . If your child needs help reading, I'd love to get them on their reading level. During my busy season, I facilitate youth workshops for churches, schools and youth programs to show them the importance of being a servant leader. I was a caretaker for about 2 years as a companion for Seniors doing private duty care. My heart is soft for elders and children. Kindness is what I lead with so I'm dependable and patient. I am a humble servant leader. Careful. I value respect. Transparency, cleanliness, honesty and integrity are traits of my "ideal" clients' family. While I don't have any children of my own, I love the 13 neices and nephews I've been blessed with. Your loved one will be in good hands with me. I love music and marketing. Occasionally, I produce poetry events and I like watching documentaries on PBS. Im a life learner. I love the Lord and I work for him. Hoping to hear from you soon! Shannan

Sydney $22 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m Sydney, a recent architecture graduate from USC, and I’m excited to offer childcare, pet care, and household help. I’ve been caring for children since I was 14 and have four years of experience as a summer nanny for two elementary school-aged kids. My responsibilities included picking them up from camp, preparing meals, doing crafts, and keeping them engaged and entertained throughout the day. In addition to babysitting, I’ve coached a young girls’ kickball team, which helped me develop patience, leadership, and a playful spirit that kids respond to. I haven’t worked with newborns or infants, but I’m comfortable and confident working with toddlers and school-age children. I also offer household assistant services like cooking, cleaning, and running errands—whatever helps your family run more smoothly! I grew up with both dogs and cats, so I’m very comfortable caring for furry family members too. Whether it’s feeding, walking, or just giving them some love and attention, I’m happy to help. Looking forward to connecting!

Misty $35 per hour for 1 child

* I have many excellent local referral/recommendations that I’m happy to send you with phone numbers, etc. (not through this platform, so cannot add) I've raised 4 children, three girls and one boy. I have 4 "favorites". I home educated my older two through graduation. It was an awesome experience. I enjoy children of all ages and consider caring for them to be a blessing and high calling. I'm easy-going, smart, kind, intuitive and full of initiative. The glass is half full to me and gratitude is a daily priority. I enjoy making the most of each moment. I enjoy thrifting, estate sales, reading, exploring and being near the water. I was raised in the Midwest, happily lived in Austin for 15 years and newly arrived in Echo Park. Empty nest, new adventure! I have excellent references for childcare, elder care, personal assistant, clear recent background check, excellent driving record. * Especially interested in: one time jobs, recurring jobs with minimal hours per week, travel jobs-domestic or international of two weeks or less
