Felicia $30 per hour for 1 child

I’m a part-time teacher who enjoys supporting families by providing dependable, caring, and flexible childcare. My professional background is in fashion and sustainability, but being an auntie has given me a special love for caring for the many children in my life. I believe in creating a safe, comfortable, nurturing, and positive environment where children feel supported and parents feel confident knowing their little ones are in good hands. I currently work in the nursery at my local church, caring for children ages 1–3. For four years, I cared for a little boy from the time he was 6 months old through age 4. More recently, I have also helped care for a 2-year-old and newborn twins. I bring patience, kindness, creativity, and dependability to every family I support. I enjoy helping children learn, grow, and feel cared for while providing families with reliable support they can trust.

Sophia $30 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Newhall, CA

Hi! I’m Sophia 🌿 I have twenty years of experience working with children in a variety of settings—supporting kids on the autism spectrum (ages 2–18), working as a summer camp counselor teaching kayaking, and spending summers working at a beach camp in Santa Monica with kids ages 3–13. As well as an away camp working with kids of all ages for a summer when I was 18. I’ve also assisted in a Montessori classroom for ages 3–6 and have two sweet nephews (Ray Ray, 12, and Theo, 8) whom I adore and have helped care for regularly. I have been babysitting for different families since I was 12 years old. I studied psychology at the University of Colorado Boulder, where I developed a deep love for the outdoors. Whether I’m hiking, biking, or surfing, being in nature is a big part of my life. I love working with children because it brings out my playful and nurturing side. I’m known for being calm, kind, and grounded, and I bring a lot of presence and care into the spaces I hold with kids. Friends and colleagues often describe me as genuine, patient, and full of heart. Fun facts about me: I love swing dancing, singing circles, and playing the ukulele. I’m also a certified Reiki Master and integrative health coach and run a coaching business focused on healing and personal growth. I bring emotional attunement, nervous system regulation and loving presence into my childcare. I’m currently looking for a summer position and am available until mid-September. Looking forward to connecting with you and your family!

Christina $22 per hour for 1 child

Hi I am a mother of three amazing adult kids. My oldest (27) is a college graduate working as a Computer Engineer. My middle child is a Biology graduate from University of San Francisco and last but not least my youngest daughter (19) is in the arts and loves all things music. A side from my love of being a mom, I'm passionate about health and fitness. Now that my kids are independent, I would love to be a part of your kids growth and have tons of fun while doing so! I'm always open to starting with a call to see if we are a good fit for each other.

Gabriela $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi – my name is Gabriela. I’m a college graduate and currently work part-time. I’m offering child care, senior care, and household support services. I’ve worked with toddlers and school-aged children through babysitting jobs, as an activities coordinator, after-school coach and as a Teacher’s Assistant. Whether it’s helping with homework, preparing snacks, organizing fun activities, or handling school pick-ups, I love creating a safe and engaging environment where kids feel supported and cared for. In addition to child care, I’m experienced with household tasks like cooking, cleaning, and running errands. I’m organized, dependable, and happy to help make your daily routine a little easier. Please let me know if you'd think we would be a good fit or if you have any questions!

Constanza $30 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Constanza. I am a responsible, patient, and caring person who really enjoys spending time with children 😊 I have experience with babies and young kids since I was 15 years old because my younger sister was born when I was a teenager, so I helped take care of her a lot. This gave me my first experience with babies and taught me how to be attentive and loving with children. Currently, I take care of an 11-month-old baby and an almost 3-year-old boy for about 8 hours a day. I have known them for almost a year, so I am very familiar with their routines and needs. I help with feeding, playing, keeping them safe, and making sure they have a fun and positive day. I really enjoy doing activities with kids like playing, reading stories, going for walks, and helping them learn new things. I always try to create a safe, fun, and caring environment where children feel comfortable and happy
