Hi! My name is Jenny and I have over 15 years experience in childcare. I graduated from the University of Illinois at Chicago and worked in the children's department of a library for several years. I did storytime, crafts, and helped children with homework and research at the library. I also love painting and drawing and enjoy teaching children how to draw, instilling in them my passion for the arts. I'm a lifelong bookworm, love reading with children, and hope I encourage their own love of books. Books, art, and a great role model can enrich a child's life and watching a child's development is very rewarding. I have worked primarily as a nanny the last five years since moving to Los Angeles. The wonderful families and children I've worked with and grown close to has sustained me in LA. I'm lucky to have created a network of families I babysit for and to have a role in their children's lives. I have the best parents in the world and I model the selfless, gentle, and devoted way I was raised. Being a parent is the hardest job in the world and I will do anything I can to make a parent's life easier.

Hi, I’m Rosa! I am an experienced, multi-certified caregiver offering dedicated support for children, pets, and seniors. I understand how important reliable care is. At the moment I am only available for part time or one day jobs. Child Care: I’ve been babysitting since I was 15, working with all ages from newborns to school-aged children. I’m happy to help with "new mommy" tasks, tummy time, school transport, and creative activities like arts and crafts. Pet & House Sitting: I’ve provided pet and home care since I was 18. Whether it’s long walks, park play, feeding, or bathing, your furry friends are in great hands. I also provide light housekeeping to keep your home running smoothly. Senior Care: Having cared for my own grandfather, I am comfortable assisting seniors with meal prep, driving to appointments, and running errands. I’m also a great Bingo partner!

Rosa was a fantastic sitter for our toddler. She was prompt,communicative and flexible with last minute change in plans.
