Booked by 1 family in Montebello, CA

Hi! I’m Ella and I’ll be a sophomore at Biola University. I love babysitting and I’ve also volunteered at lots of kids camps of many ages. My aspiration is to be a teacher so I’d love the opportunity to help with schoolwork! I’m willing to run errands and drive your kids anywhere, I’ve had my license for over three years. I’m more than happy to do any chores and take care of pets as well!

Elisabeth $30 per hour for 1 child

Hello! My name is Lizzy and I'm offering my services as a creative and arts-focused babysitter. I grew up in an artist family and have a lot of experience with exploring all the arts. I have a knack for inspiring kids to get drawing, painting, singing, sculpture, dancing, and playing. I was raised biculutrally French and American and I can easily adapt to international families. I speak fluent French and I have a B1.3 level in Spanish. I can also speak conversational German. I’ve lived in Germany and France as well, and spent some time in Italy, Mexico, and Portugal. I'm allergic to cats and dogs unfortunately, but can be around hypoallergenic dogs without problems. I'm a tidy person, and good at organising! I can help tidy and organise your house, do shopping, etc. Thank you and hope to hear from you!

Keauntra $25 per hour for 1 child

Hello. I have 10+ years working with kids from newborns to teenagers. I am also third oldest of seven kids, so some of that experience did come from watching my siblings growing up. I work in the food industry and have 14years experience. I have 2 elder dogs, they are a terrier mix that I had the opportunity of taking in as puppies (3-4 weeks,) they just turned 15 years, so I have experience with dogs, smaller dogs, but I love all dogs regardless. I mainly love baking and creating fun little treats but I do know my way around a kitchen as well. I’ve been a creative person my whole life, so both visual arts and performing arts are things I’m passionate about. I’m a very neat, organized and detail oriented person, so helping with household chores is something I can assist with as well. My fulltime job was affected by the LA fires (Jan. 2025) and I’ve yet to find another full time job to work in tandem with my part time job. I’m looking for something with a set schedule, and preferably something earlier in the day.

Priscilla $28 per hour for 1 child

Hello everyone!!! I am an experienced sitter for every necessary help. I love kids and pets so I don't have any problem with babysitting or petsitting. I have been helping my family take care of kids for as long as I can remember and can handle a baby. I have been an experienced behavior analyst for the past 4 years so I have worked with kids with special needs. I used to be a teacher's aid as well as a teacher for kindergarden kiddos. I also have had pets for the past 16 years. I can cat sit or dog sit. I can do dog walking. I can shower them. I can pick up their poop, or clean litter boxes. I really do what you need around the house. I can prep dinners, I can do errands, I can clean. I enjoy organization. I am first aid and cpr certified because I have to be for work purposes. Please let me know if you have any questions for me. If necessary, I can also give you a reference or two. I live in Baldwin Park/West Covina. My availability is M/T/TH 9am-2:30pm W/F 9am-6pm.
