Jasmine $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi families! My name is Jasmine, and I’m currently a rising junior at Wellesley College double majoring in Education and Psychology. I have always loved working with children because I understand how important it is for them to have someone who is patient, supportive, and trustworthy in their lives. I also understand that choosing someone to care for your child is a big decision, and I never take that trust lightly. My goal is to create an environment where children feel safe, comfortable, and encouraged to be themselves. My experience caring for children has grown naturally through my family and the relationships I have built with the children I have cared for. As an older sister, I have always helped support and look after my siblings, which taught me responsibility, patience, and the importance of being attentive to each child’s individual needs. I have also had the opportunity to care for my younger cousin from infancy through his toddler years, and watching him grow has taught me so much about the importance of patience, consistency, and creating a nurturing environment. While attending Wellesley, I have also gained babysitting experience in Boston, where I have enjoyed getting to know families and helping create a safe and positive space for their children. I have experience connecting with children at different ages and stages, and I love being someone they can feel comfortable with, whether that means helping with routines, playing, learning, or simply being there to support them. I would describe myself as dependable, caring, patient, and responsible. I enjoy creating activities that allow children to explore and have fun, such as reading, music, dancing, creative activities, outdoor walks, and helping with homework. My background in Education and Psychology has also helped me better understand children’s development, emotions, and the importance of making them feel valued and heard. I also have a SafeChokeSaver certification, which has strengthened my knowledge of child safety and preparedness. I would love the opportunity to support your family and provide a caring, safe, and positive environment where your child feels happy, supported, and able to be themselves.

Evita $30 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Evita, and I'm a graduate student at USC pursuing my Master's in Marriage and Family Therapy after earning my degree in Psychology. I offer babysitting, tutoring, homework help, and light household assistance, and I'm passionate about creating a safe, fun, and supportive environment for children. I have experience working with children ages 3–5 through a community program where I helped build social-emotional skills, school readiness, healthy routines, and positive learning experiences. In addition to childcare, I enjoy helping with homework, reading, arts and crafts, educational activities, meal preparation, and keeping children engaged in creative play. As a psychology student and former teacher assistent I'm patient, dependable, and comfortable helping children learn while making sure they feel encouraged and cared for. Families can count on me to be responsible, attentive, and communicative. My goal is to provide dependable care that gives parents peace of mind while making sure every child feels safe, happy, and supported.

Booked by 1 family in Inglewood, CA

I have 10+ years of experience for newborn-11 years old, have a PhD in engineering, tutor/professor experience, and am BLS, CPR, and NREMT certified. I’m a fun, reliable, and caring babysitter who loves working with children of all ages—from tiny tots to teens! Whether it’s bedtime stories, overnights, or busy after-school evenings, I’m here to make your routines smoother and your kids feel safe, happy, and loved. 💕 I’m all about creating engaging educational activities, and am also happy to cook, help tidy up, and keep things running smoothly so parents can relax knowing everything’s taken care of on date nights out of the house!

“Jamie took wonderful care of our toddler. She was able to watch him, take him to the playground, feed him dinner, do bath time and put him to sleep to allow us to have a relaxing date night. She shared pictures during the whole time and sent updates. She is wonderful with kids and we will hire her again! ”

Vanessa $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi, my name is Vanessa, and I look forward to meeting you! I recently graduated from UCLA and currently work part-time on weekends. I am interested in providing baby and childcare services, as well as occasional pet care. I have been babysitting since my teenage years. My knowledge of baby care is still fresh, especially since my baby niece is turning two. While it may seem easy, having an extra hand is always helpful. I possess a driver's license and own a car, which has allowed me to commute from residential areas to highways. I am comfortable with pickups and drop-offs, and I'm also okay with running quick, easy errands. NOTE: I am also open to pet and house-sitting
