Hi! My name is Kayla, and I’m currently a law student at USC. I’m excited to spend my summer helping families with dependable, attentive, and engaging childcare. I’ve always loved working with children and have experience through tutoring, as well as growing up as 1 of 10 kids with many nieces and nephews. Being part of a big family has given me plenty of hands-on experience caring for children of different ages, and I genuinely enjoy creating a safe, positive, and fun environment where kids feel comfortable being themselves. Whether that means helping with homework, reading stories, getting creative with arts and crafts, exploring at the park, or doing mini science experiments, I love finding activities that keep children engaged and excited to learn. I’m responsible, organized, patient, and comfortable balancing busy schedules and high levels of responsibility. I’m happy to help wherever needed, whether that’s preparing simple meals, keeping routines on track, or lending an extra set of hands to make your family’s day run more smoothly. I also understand how important trust and communication are when it comes to childcare, and I strive to make both parents and children feel supported and at ease. I’m also very comfortable around pets! As the proud owner of a Saint Bernard and a Bernese Mountain Dog, I have plenty of experience caring for large dogs and would be happy to help in pet-friendly households (including homes with cats!). I would love the opportunity to connect with your family this summer and provide a caring, reliable presence for your children!

“Kayla is absolutely wonderful! She is easygoing and thoughtful, and my son loved his time with her. ”

Hi, I’m Wendy! I’m a dedicated babysitter with over 10 years of experience caring for children of all ages, including those with ADHD and Autism. I have a strong understanding of RIE teaching methods, which help foster independence, confidence, and a nurturing environment for children to thrive. Originally from Los Angeles, I went to school for Business but my true passion has always been working with kids. I love incorporating outdoor activities, art, and cooking into my babysitting style to create engaging and fun experiences. My goal is to provide a safe, supportive, and enriching environment for every child I care for. I’m also a big dog lover, so pets are always a welcome part of the experience! I’d love to connect with your family—feel free to reach out with any questions!

Booked by 305 families in La Crescenta, CA

Hello parents! My expertise ranges from newborns, to school aged children, and occasionally preteens. I know how to change diapers and make bottles to prepare healthy snacks and play while learning. From my experiences with children, it seems to me that children tend to easily bond with me as I am fun while providing a sense of trust and security. Family life is my passion as my own family means a lot to me. *I would gladly appreciate if you send me message first describing your needs. I can accept the job without a phone interview should we exchange messages with all the details. Ps.s. Last minute cancelations made within 6 hours of the start time would require payment for three hours of my time.

“Lanae was amazing!! She was on time, so sweet with my newborn, and made me feel completely comfortable from the start. We used her for several nights and she was wonderful every time. She cleaned bottles without being asked and paid attention to all the little details. She even surprised my friend’s little boy with a new toy after he lost his, which was so thoughtful. I felt completely at ease leaving my baby with her and would absolutely recommend her.”

Hi, I was born and raised in Honolulu. I attended La Pietra Hawaii School for Girls at Diamond Head from 6th grade to 12th. I graduated with my BS in Global Media from The New School in NYC May 2021. I graduated with my Masters in Liberal & Media Studies, May 2022 from The New School of Social Research. I grew up with a houseful of pets! I am Red Cross certified in pediatric first aid, CPR, AED and child care training. I have a fully clear background check. I love children and they love me! I have a car and can transport children as needed - with mileage reimbursement in addition to my hourly rate, or I can drive the family car. I do not have a car seat. I am looking for occasional afternoon and/or weeknight sitting. I recently started a full-time pre-K teaching assignment at a Manhattan Beach area elementary school so I prefer weekday afternoons to be near my school. Contact me if you think I would be a good fit for your family! Chase

“Chase is terrific! Our son took to her right away, and when she left he told us "we really really had a lot of fun". Chase was punctual, smart, friendly and of course, great with kids :). Look forward to working ith her again!”

AVAILABLE FOR BACKUP CARE TRUSTLINE REGISTERED Not too long ago it was a tradition for an extended family member to step in as a caregiver for working parents. Now, there are many families who have moved to a new city for a career without a family member nearby. I specialize in taking loving care of children in my role as caregiver. I strive to prepare healthy kid-friendly meals and snacks for children. And I make use of other sites to find activities for little learners. I can keep your child engaged with reading books aloud and other fun and educational activities. I am very resourceful and patient with a sense of humor! For the past couple of years, I have worked as a nanny in share, and with one child alone. Those parents are very willing to be a reference for me. And I had a very successful run in Washington DC with many families from the region. Maybe I have cared for your family or friends in DC; I have more than 400 bookings there. I really look forward to working with your family!
