Hello Parents, my name is Deanna. I am a certified postpartum doula and childcare professional with over 10 years of experience caring for children from infancy through elementary school age. Families trust me because I combine expertise, patience, and a warm, dependable presence. I specialize in newborn and infant care—supporting feeding, sleep routines, and early development—but I also love engaging with toddlers, preschoolers, and school-aged children. Whether it’s creating structured play for little ones, helping with homework, or keeping kids active and entertained, I tailor my approach to meet each child’s needs. What I provide: • Safe, nurturing care for infants with focus on early milestones • Creative and educational play for toddlers and preschoolers • Homework help and after-school support for elementary-age children • Calm, reliable presence that gives parents peace of mind • Household support to ease busy family routines Parents often describe me as professional, patient, and someone their children connect with right away. I understand the trust it takes to invite someone into your home, and I take that responsibility seriously. If you’re looking for a caregiver who can grow with your family—supporting your little one from the baby stage all the way through the school years—I’d love to connect. If your interested in booking me, please read my policy. Once you have scheduled a job with me, I assume you agree to the terms of this agreement. I look forward to meeting your family! Payment Policy: I plan my time and budget according to hours booked, so I require that I am paid for the entire booking regardless of hours actually worked. Booking Policy: If your looking to book me, I have a 4 hour minimum. (except for interviews) Cancellation Policy: Since I am requested by a lot of parents, I need a 24 to 48 hour notice of cancellation so I can book another family. If you do not cancel within that time frame, I request half payment of what would have made during the original booking. If I must cancel because I am either sick or have an emergency. I will make every effort to find you a replacement sitter. Additionally, on the next job, I will babysit an hour for free since I know cancelling can be an inconvenience.

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.

I have been working with children in various capacities for over 10 years. For 2 years, I worked as an actor on a traveling theatre group that performs shows on bullying prevention and other social issues at schools throughout the greater Seattle area, and then spent 2 years as the Education and Outreach Program Coordinator for that same theatre company. I now work as an Education Programs Specialist at the Skirball Cultural Center in Los Angeles, where I develop museum programming for students and teachers. In terms of childcare, I have worked with dozens of families, ages ranging from 11 weeks to 13 years old, and I am comfortable and experienced working with all ages and up to three children at a time (or more if necessary). I have learned so much from little ones over the past years and being able to play a role in their growth and development is a great joy. I'm passionate about social-emotional learning and creating opportunities to grow in respect and kindness. I love cooking, crafts, and books!
