Amrawit $20 per hour for 1 child

I have a bachelor’s degree in International Affairs, and I’ve been babysitting for the past 3 years. I currently babysit and have experience caring for children of different ages, and I really enjoy keeping them engaged through activities, walks, games, and just having fun together. I love caregiving because I genuinely enjoy being around kids and being someone they can feel comfortable and safe with. A little something about me: I’m a big soccer fan, love being outdoors, and I’m always up for a fun activity or adventure!

Hulya $30 per hour for 1 child

Hello! My name is Hulya, and I am a caring, responsible, and dependable person who enjoys spending time with children. I am a former dentist, which has given me strong skills in patience, communication, attention to detail, and maintaining a safe and healthy environment. Throughout my life, I have had experience caring for children, starting with my younger brother. I helped take care of him when he was a baby and continued to support and look after him as he grew older. This experience taught me the importance of responsibility, empathy, and creating a nurturing atmosphere. Since moving to the United States, I have also been doing occasional babysitting for families in my community. Through these experiences, I have cared for children of different ages, helping with playtime, meals, homework, bedtime routines, and ensuring they feel comfortable and secure while their parents are away. I understand that every child is unique, and I strive to provide attentive, patient, and individualized care. My goal is to create a positive, safe, and engaging environment where children can have fun, learn, and feel supported. I would be honored to help your family and provide reliable childcare you can trust.

Booked by 1 family in Pacoima, CA

Hi! I’m Vitória, and I have over 7 years of experience supporting families throughout Los Angeles as a nanny, household assistant, and personal organizer. I’ve cared for children from 3 months to 13 years old, with most of my experience being with families of three children between the ages of 2 and 9. My responsibilities have included school pick ups and drop offs, meal preparation, daily routines, activities, homework support, and creating a calm, organized home environment. Beyond childcare, I’ve also supported families with household management, running errands and organizing spaces. I’m currently looking for part time nanny or house assistant opportunities while I transition career and continue growing my personal organizing/personal assistant business. I especially enjoy helping families through seasons of change whether you’re relocating, searching for the right long term nanny, or simply need an extra set of hands during a busy chapter. I also love supporting first time moms as they settle into parenthood by creating thoughtful systems, routines, and an organized home that helps their new lifestyle feel a little more manageable. I’m warm, dependable, proactive, and truly enjoy making life easier for the families I work with. I look forward to connecting with you!

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
