Hello! My name is Jorgea andI'm an 18 year old student in college. I currently work for an afterschool program where I provide a safe environment for children ages 4-12, as well as assist in homework, create fun crafts, and engage in fun, tech-free activities. I love getting to watch each kid grow and help in guiding them to find the type of person they'd like to be! I also grew up looking after younger siblings and cousins since I was 14. I would be happy to help in driving to and from places. I am allergic to cats but am happy to help with families with dogs.
Hi there! I am a dedicated caregiver with over 6 years of experience specializing in special needs care. With a professional background in recreational therapy and adaptive sports, combined with my training in Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA), I love creating structured, positive, and inclusive environments where kids of all abilities can thrive. I am fully CPR-certified and passionate about using positive behavior support to help children succeed. My goal is to ensure your child feels supported, active, and valued while giving you complete peace of mind
Hi! My name is Megan, and I am currently looking for occasional/ part time babysitting or petsitting jobs while I take some gap years before graduate school. I've been babysitting for about 10 years now, but as the oldest sister I've been helping out with my siblings since I was young. I graduated from UCLA in 2023 with a BA in Psychology and a minor in Anthropology. I enjoy learning about health and medicine in the contexts of development and society. Some of my hobbies include drawing, yoga, and eating good food :) I’ve worked with children of different ages, ranging from babies to teenagers, though I have the most experience with babies and kids ages 2 - 5. I find caregiving to be a fun and rewarding job. While kids learn a lot from us, I find that we learn a lot from them as well. I value patience and respect, and these are qualities I show to the kids I work with. I look forward to working with you!
Hi, my name is Brenda! I am a student nurse and am certified in CPR for both children and adults. I’m currently available for occasional babysitting and pet sitting! I’ve grown up around children of all ages and have always enjoyed caring for them. Their safety is my top priority, and I’m always attentive to their needs and respectful of any instructions provided by parents or guardians. I have experience with: • Driving kids to and from school or activities • Swimming / Pool day • Helping with crafts, sports, and playtime • Preparing meals, snacks, and bedtime routines • Bottle-feeding toddlers • Assisting with homework • Running errands • Caring for pets I love spending time with kids and creating a safe, fun, and engaging environment for them. I’m flexible, responsible, and happy to accommodate each family’s unique needs. Feel free to reach out with any questions—I’d be happy to help!
I am a passionate and fun mom and grandma. I have cared for my grandchildren (now 11, 8, and 3) since they were born. I have a Master's in Social Work and have had a long career in child welfare (foster care and adoption), helping nurture children's physical, emotional and psychological needs. I also worked in an elementary school providing health care back-up, office assistance, and classroom help. I have always been an animal lover. I have had dogs and cats and have provided care for pets, both occasionally and for long periods when their owners were on vacation. I am comfortable feeding, playing, walking, and administering meds. I would also love to provide companionship for seniors and am genuinely interested in their stories and unique points of view. I have a car and can provide reliable and safe transportation.

"Caitlin was awesome and jumped right in to chaperone four girls (10, 9, 8 and 6) at a family wedding (they were bridesmaids) and she was very helpful with the event as well as taking them home and putting them to bed."
Lila P., parent

"McKenna was great with our 3 year old son! She came prepared with a box of fun activities and handled playing, dinner, and bedtime seamlessly... and it was all at our hotel while we were in town for a wedding. Thank you McKenna!"
