I have years of experience babysitting kids, from babies through 12 years old, and I raised two puppies until their old age, so I’m comfortable with dogs. I feel my greatest strengths are love for children, being trustworthy, reliable, and safety-minded, which includes CPR training. I can also do overnight babysitting or housesitting.

Alex $24 per hour for 1 child

Hi, my name is Alex. I am 26, and offering child care, senior care, pet care, household & prep/ cooking services. I love kids, as my sister has a 1 year old, and I am a godparent to my aunts 7 year old. I am vegan for 9 years now, but that does not stop me; I have cooked for friends and families who majority eat regular foods. Also looking if anyone wants a chef, I love to cook. Currently with 1 family on Monday & Wednesday. I used to be in camp during the summers/winters when i was young. Then I became a camp counselor at the same camps that I went, when I was allowed and of age. I realized I love taking care of kids and did that for a couple years. I also used to volunteer at an elderly home for Alzheimer’s and retired patients during high school. I am familiar with more of being a friend, company while engaging with them, and playing games like bingo. Those were more my duties there. I’m fantastic at games, even blackjack and card games. I can drive to/from school, homework, crafts, tutoring, errands, clean/tidy up. I have a dog of mine, and used to have a cat with an ex partner, so very familiar with pets as well. I love both very much.

Aloha

$25 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Reseda, CA

Hello, My name is Aloha, I'm 24 years old, and I'm currently an au pair for a family of three children, ages 7, 14, and 17. The 14-year-old is autistic, so I'm able to look after a child with a mild disability. I'm French but I speak good English. In France, I also looked after children between the ages of 3 and 6. I've also looked after toddlers a few times, so I'm able to do so with clear instructions about their needs. I am offering child care, pets care, and household services. I can cook, drive to appointments, or other tasks. Looking forward to helping you :)

Rachel $22 per hour for 1 child

Hello! My name is Rachel, and I am a recent college graduate and former student-athlete who recently moved back to California for my gap year before attending graduate school and pursuing a Doctorate in Physical Therapy. I am looking to earn extra income while doing work that I genuinely enjoy and find meaningful. I am offering child care, senior care, pet care, and household services. I have reliable transportation, and I am dependable, responsible, energetic, and committed to creating a safe, positive environment for everyone I work with. I love working with children and have experience caring for younger family members from a young age. In addition, I have worked with with preschool-aged children with complex special needs, visual impairments, and children on the autism spectrum. These experiences have helped me develop patience, creativity, strong communication skills, and the ability to adapt to each child's unique needs. I enjoy keeping children engaged through a variety of activities, including sports, outdoor play, board games, arts and crafts, reading, imaginative play, and educational activities. I strive to make every child feel supported, included, and encouraged while having fun. As someone pursuing a career in healthcare, I am passionate about helping others and building meaningful connections with families. Whether you need assistance with child care, pet care, household tasks, or support for a senior family member, I would love the opportunity to help.
