Ryan $22 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Ryan. I am 22 years old and I am currently an undergraduate student at Cal State Fullerton for my Bachelor’s degree in Psychology. I am offering child care and pet care! I am a Registered Behavioral Technician (RBT) with over two years of experience working with children with autism and other developmental disabilities. I use ABA (Applied Behavior Analysis) therapy techniques to help kids build new skills, reach their goals, and improve daily behaviors in a clinic or home setting. This work has taught me patience, empathy, and how to adapt to each child’s unique personality and needs. Before becoming an RBT, I spent years as a competitive dancer since age 3 and later worked as an assistant dance teacher for children ages 4–12. I love bringing creativity, movement, and play into my time with kids to keep things fun and engaging. I grew up in Palm Springs but now live in Orange County, and I occasionally visit my hometown, so I’m open to jobs in both areas. I’m also happy to provide pet care! My family has a beagle, and I have hands-on experience with dog walking, feeding, and playtime (cats included!). I’m comfortable caring for large animals too. Outside of work, I love music, dancing, festivals, concerts, fashion, shopping, arts and crafts, reading, movies, and anything creative. I’d describe myself as outgoing and adventurous, with a genuine passion for helping others and learning new things.

Mackenzie $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m Mackenzie I’m a college student at cal state Fullerton. I’m offering babysitting and pet sitting services. I don’t have too much one on one experience taking care of children but I was a lifeguard for 2 summers at a waterpark working with children all day where I was also cpr and first aid trained. I’ve always been pretty good with kids taking care of younger family members and family friends. I do have experience taking care of pets though. I’m very friendly and I have a pretty flexible schedule. I’m a good cook and I can drive although my daily car is pretty small. I can help with household chores and errands as needed. I could also help with homework and projects.
