“Sara was great. Very friendly and my son loved her.”
Hi my name is Karina and I’m currently going to school for cosmetology! I’m offering childcare services. I love being a babysitter, I’ve watched kids from the age range of 4-10. I used to babysit for a family watching 2 kids at a time for about 2 years! I would help clean up after the kids, make sure they did homework if they had any, do some coloring and outdoor activities if they wanted to, make sure they took a bath before bedtime and provided a safe environment in the comfort of their own home!
Hi! I'm a college student pursuing a career in healthcare, and I have experience caring for children through babysitting. I'm responsible, patient, caring, and attentive, and I genuinely enjoy spending time with kids and creating a fun, safe, and positive environment for them. I also have experience in healthcare through a nursing internship at Hoag Hospital and am currently completing a Medical Assistant program. These experiences have strengthened my communication skills, patience, and ability to stay calm in different situations. I'm happy to help with homework, activities, meal preparation, and light household tasks. I'm also an animal lover and feel comfortable caring for pets, whether that involves feeding, walking, playing with them, or simply keeping them company. My goal is to make sure children and pets feel comfortable, supported, and well cared for while giving families peace of mind!
15 years of nursing. Worked in home health with both pediatric and elderly patients. I am very friendly and love taking care of children/adults who need me. I take pride in doing my best with each case and each challenge. I am also an animal lover, and pet owner. I have a cat and a dog. They are both very mellow and friendly. I am honest and reliable and I am looking for a good family who may need my help.
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.
