Hi there! My name is Monica. I have about 8 years paid experience in babysitting and been babysitting family members on and off since high school. I am also certified in First Aid/ CPR/ AED. I love kids. I enjoy watching, playing as well as teaching them. I love to nurture their interests and development whichever way they chose. Listening to their silly story and witnessing their small milestones are definitely some of my favorite most rewarding things as a sitter! A little more about myself, I grew up drawing a lot of cartoon characters and many of the kids I sit love and enjoy their drawing/coloring session with me! Aside from working, I love going on a hike. Always looking forward to going to the National Parks, or the next glacier trip. Currently, I’m babysitting kids ranging from 1 year old to 11 years old whenever my schedule permits. My schedule is flexible since I work from home. I also tutor, specializing in math. I will charge a different rate per discussion. For older kids, pick up & drop off, rates may vary. Minimum 4hrs of booking. If booked under 4hrs, $5/ per hour additional charge would be added. Safety and communication is my top priority! Love dogs and cats! I’m vaccinated and boosted, and I DO NOT work with sick children. My calendar is not always updated, so please do message me for availability. Please feel free to reach out to me for any questions. Looking forward to hearing from you. Thank you!

“Highly recommend! Great communication, punctual, considerate, and provided great energy to make kids comfortable.”

Booked by 6 families in Altadena, CA

Hi, I'm a college student who loves to help others! When I’m not working with children at a museum, I’m looking after families like yours. I use empathy, patience, and years of experience to care for your loved ones. I have reliable transportation and am always ready on short notice. I’d love to meet and assist you in any way possible!

“Ruby is a wonderful babysitter—calm, intelligent, and compassionate. She quickly understands what needs to be done, takes initiative without being asked, and is always ready to help in any situation. Her thoughtful and gentle approach creates a safe, happy environment for children, and her quick thinking gives parents peace of mind. Highly recommended. ”

Booked by 18 families in Altadena, CA

Hey Families! Are you in need of a nurturing, fun and loving caregiver? Look no more! My name is Marisol, a 29 year old nature, sports, arts & crafts, and plant enthusiast who is the oldest of 20 grandchildren. Being the oldest of 20 grandchildren, has not only allowed me to have a love for caring for children but has allowed me to understand the importance in having a memorable time as a child, unconditionally cared for, and guided to becoming their most loved self. I have assisted with four different families for one to three years each as well. I am looking for the opportunity to help a new set of parents with the care of their children. Date nights, daily help or emergencies, do not hesitate to reach out! If you have any pets that’s no problem! I am a mama bear of a few pets myself and at the end of the day they are apart of the family! Looking forward to chatting soon about any potential arrangements!
