Hello ! ! ! Graduated from the University of Alabama in 2019. I work for a real estate tech start up during the week. I have always enjoyed babysitting and love picking up a babysitting gig here and there. It has always been a fun thing for me and a great way to meet families! I began my babysitting career in middle school and since then I have worked as a mothers help, date night sitter, summer break nanny, and weekend overnight sitter. For 3 years of high school I worked at a local yoga studio in childcare, and spent three summers as a camp counselor. I have a wide range of experience with all ages throughout the past 12+ years of working for a wide range of families!

Giovanna $30 per hour for 1 child

Hi there! I’m a loving, proactive, and compassionate nanny and house assistant with over seven years of experience caring for children ages 2 to 16. I’m super energetic, patient, and always bring positive energy into the home. I truly love what I do, helping families stay organized, keeping the home running smoothly, and creating a safe, fun, and nurturing environment for kids to grow and feel loved. Right now, I care for two wonderful kids (ages 12, and 9). My days include school drop-offs, organizing after-school activities like sports and tutoring, helping with errands, managing the family calendar, and keeping the home clean and tidy. Before that, I cared for an amazing 12-year-old boy with autism for almost three years, supporting his daily routine, school, and therapies with patience and consistency, while also helping with light housekeeping, errands, and pet care. Over the years, I’ve gained a lot of experience balancing family routines, promoting positive behavior, and creating a calm and joyful environment. I’m CPR certified, fully vaccinated, a non-smoker, and have a clean driving record. I’m looking for a wonderful family that feels like the right fit, where I can bring my heart, energy, and experience to make everyday life easier and happier. I’d love to hear from you! ✨

Sadie $22 per hour for 1 child

Hello, My name is Sadie, I am 19 years old and am currently studying early childhood education at Orange Coast College. I live in Newport Beach, across from the Back Bay and graduated from Newport Harbor High School. I worked for 5+ years as a childcare provider for a local family of three boys (ranging in ages from 4-9), assisting with light house cleaning, meal preparation, and transporting to activities. I also have interned at the Environmental Nature Center as an assistant for the early childhood program (Little Naturalists and Mini Naturalists) and summer camp. I have two rescue dogs and can assist with meal preparation, walks, and medication for family pets. I am not familiar with caring for cats but am open to learning and love all animals. In my spare time I enjoy doing art, sewing, crocheting, etc. I enjoy creating activities for children and encourage outdoor time. I look forward to meeting you and your families!
