Kaylee $19 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Kaylee, and I recently graduated from an esthetician program. I currently work at a gym and have over two years of experience working in daycare, caring for children from 4 months to 13 years old. I truly enjoy working with children of all ages and creating a fun, safe, and comfortable environment for them. I am patient, responsible, attentive, and happy to help with playtime, meals, homework, and daily routines. Outside of work, I have three Border Collies and love taking them to the park and on walks. I also love dog care and house sitting, and I am very comfortable caring for pets while their families are away. I also have personal experience caring for my grandparents, but my main focus is providing dependable child care and pet care.

Tiffany $23 per hour for 1 child

I’ve been working with kids since 2005, and caring for families has always felt like second nature to me. Over the years I’ve been a live-in nanny and a house manager, so I’m very comfortable juggling busy schedules, helping with homework, keeping the home organized, and making sure kids feel safe and supported. I’ve worked with children of all ages and I really enjoy getting to know each child’s personality and what makes them feel happy and understood. I’m reliable, calm, and confident handling whatever the day brings. My goal is always to make life easier for parents while creating a warm, fun environment for their kids.

Kaya $16 per hour for 1 child

Hi, my name is Kaya! I am currently a student-athlete at Pacific Lutheran University. I am offering childcare, pet care, and household services. I have extensive experience in caregiving and providing support to others. I have worked at children’s camps through SCATS Gymnastics and the Huntington Beach Parks and Recreation summer program, where I supervised and cared for kids in a safe and positive environment. I have also babysat, driven children to and from activities, cared for pets, and house-sat while family and friends are away. As a collegiate student-athlete and nursing student, I have developed strong time management, discipline, and organizational skills. Being part of a team has taught me to be dependable, hardworking, and responsible. I am passionate about caring for others and enjoy creating a safe, supportive, and positive environment. My experience with children, pets, and household responsibilities, combined with my dedication and compassionate nature, make me a reliable and enthusiastic caregiver.

Scott $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Scott and I am a father of two very vivacious kids. As they are Twins, even more so! I can help with whatever is needed as I have probably done it already! I do also gravitate towards helping with any senior care. I had deaf grandparents so helping seniors has been ingrained in me since the beginning. I have a clean driving record and can help with any tasks, cleaning even cooking. I can also assist with any pet needs. I have always had dogs. Hope to help you soon!
