Booked by 35 families in Garden Grove, CA

My name is Markie and I am a 29 year-old with a B.A. in Legal Studies and Politics. I have just completed law school and I am currently awaiting CA Bar results. I am the middle child of 5 children and have always played a huge role in looking after my siblings. I have worked as an au pair or live-in nanny and tutor in Italy for two young children. I absolutely love children and even took several child development classes in my undergraduate career. I am also CPR certified. I have also been told I can make some amazing Mexican food dishes!

“Markie! Is absolutely amazing. We will definitely be reaching out to her again. She was great with my kiddo and super friendly!”

Hi! I’m Karina :) I love working with kids. I’m a responsible, hands-on and patient caregiver who will always make sure your kids feel comfortable and happy. I have experience caring for children ranging from infants to school-aged kids. I worked at an elementary school for six months, supervising groups of 2nd and 5th graders. I’m happy to follow your family’s rules and schedules. I make it my mission to make sure any child I’m watching over is cared for, safe and having fun. I’m big on communication, so I will keep you updated and won’t hesitate to ask questions or reach out if anything comes up! Please note that my standard rates apply to local bookings. For longer-distance travel, rates may be adjusted to account for commute time and transportation costs. Can’t wait to meet you!

“Karina is an exceptional caregiver who consistently demonstrates excellent childcare skills, professionalism, and genuine care for children. We especially appreciate the imagination and creativity she brings to playtime, creating engaging and enriching experiences for our toddler. Karina is proactive when it comes to our child’s safety. For example, she thoughtfully shares her location when taking our toddler on walks, which gives us additional peace of mind. She is also an excellent communicator and keeps us informed while remaining attentive to our preferences and expectations. In addition to providing wonderful childcare, Karina is very helpful around the household. She assists with putting food away, doing the dishes, and supporting our child’s bath time and bedtime routines. She is personable, approachable, and easy to communicate with. Karina is very receptive to feedback and consistently makes an effort to respect and incorporate our wishes. Her experience and confidence as a caregiver are evident in the way she interacts with our child. She does a wonderful job teaching appropriate rules, boundaries, and respect for others in an age-appropriate and positive way. We have been very pleased with Karina’s care and would highly recommend her services to any family looking for a dependable, experienced, and caring childcare provider.”

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 have personal experience caring for my grandparents, but my main focus is providing dependable child care and pet care.
