Arianna $22 per hour for 1 child

Hi, I’m Arianna! I’m currently working part-time as a Pediatric Physical Therapy Assistant, and I’m looking to continue nannying and babysitting part-time or on an as-needed basis. I have several years of experience caring for children of different ages, including providing a safe, fun, and nurturing environment while parents are away. My experience includes supervising children, preparing meals and snacks, helping with homework, planning age-appropriate activities, maintaining routines, and assisting with bedtime and daily care. Working in pediatric physical therapy has also given me additional experience working with children and supporting their individual needs and development. I’m responsible, patient, caring, and dependable, and I truly enjoy working with children!

Shirley $35 per hour for 1 child

I began babysitting as a teenager and have cared for children of many different ages over the years. I’m also a mother of two grown children, so I have firsthand experience caring for children through every stage, from infancy to adulthood. I completed Early Childhood Education coursework and spent much of my professional career supporting children, mothers, and families as a Domestic Violence Counselor/Advocate and through a Riverside County family treatment program. I’m patient, dependable, safety-conscious, and committed to helping children feel comfortable, respected, and cared for. I enjoy reading, crafts, outdoor activities, and encouraging children to learn through play. I’m currently looking for occasional babysitting opportunities and would love to provide a local family with warm, reliable, and compassionate care.

Soumaya $30 per hour for 1 child

Hi Mom and Dads! You can call me Maya. I recently moved back to California after living in Honolulu and am excited to connect with wonderful families in the area! I have accumulated now 10 years of babysitting/nannying experience as I’ve babysat toddlers to teens. I truly enjoy being around children and getting to know their unique personalities as I come from a big family. 🤗 I’m very attentive at my job and love interacting with children while being creative and making time spent being responsible, fun, nurturing and patient. I make every child I babysit a priority and insure reliability. I hope to meet you soon!
