Ainsley $20 per hour for 1 child

I have been working with children for about 8 years now. I started off volunteering in my home church nursery with 1-2 year olds, I did this for about 3 years! I also while in high school worked at a YMCA as a summer camp counselor and also working in their afterschool childcare program! I also spent 3 years in college working for a babysitting referral company in Tampa! Throughout my time with this agency I worked with many different families doing both occasional/one time sitting jobs while also nannying!

RaNese $30 per hour for 1 child

Caring for a child means supporting their safety, growth, and emotional well-being with consistency, respect, and compassion. I bring those values to every family I serve. I am an experienced, energetic caregiver and mother, CPR/AED and CPI certified, with formal study in child development as part of my degree requirements. I am active, dependable, and thrive in supportive, structured environments that help children build confidence, healthy habits, and strong social skills. Beyond my professional experience, I volunteer with children in the special needs community and youth sports, which has strengthened my ability to adapt, lead with patience, and respond calmly in high-stress situations. I take pride in being fair, trustworthy, and genuinely invested in each child’s well-being. I would be honored to support your family and provide a loving, safe, and encouraging environment for your loved one.

Hi. My name is Jaki and I'm living in Rancho Cucamonga. I am offering child care. I love being a babysitter and spend time with kids. I have been watching infants, toddlers, and kids (including triplets) since I was almost 20 years old. I have experience caring for children and creating a safe, calm, and organized environment. I follow daily routines such as nap time and meal schedules, and I keep play areas and baby items like bottles clean and organized. I also engage in early stimulation activities, playtime, and walks to support development, and I can assist with outings, playdates, and transportation as needed.

“Jaki has been working with our son for 3 weeks, and she does such a great job with him. She's done a great job helping us introduce him to solid food and is supporting him learning how to stand up and crawl. He has the biggest smile on his face whenever she walks in the door. We will continue to book with Jaki as long as she's available :)”

Hello, my name is Ashley. I am punctual, trustworthy, energetic, and patient. I am bilingual in Spanish and fluently speak it as well. I have been babysitting for neighbors since I was a teen. Now, my nanny families come from word of mouth. I have worked with children in various settings (as a tutor, therapist, & teacher's assistant). I enjoy spending time outdoors, doing crafts, and creative play. I have watched children as young as three weeks old and up to younger adults (with autism and intellectual disabilities). I have experience watching multiple children at a time. I have taken child development courses and am certified in Adult, Child, and Infant, Pediatric CPR/AED and First Aid.

“Always kind, professional and great with the kids.”
