Ryan $22 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Ryan. I am 22 years old and I am currently an undergraduate student at Cal State Fullerton for my Bachelor’s degree in Psychology. I am offering child care and pet care! I am a Registered Behavioral Technician (RBT) with over two years of experience working with children with autism and other developmental disabilities. I use ABA (Applied Behavior Analysis) therapy techniques to help kids build new skills, reach their goals, and improve daily behaviors in a clinic or home setting. This work has taught me patience, empathy, and how to adapt to each child’s unique personality and needs. Before becoming an RBT, I spent years as a competitive dancer since age 3 and later worked as an assistant dance teacher for children ages 4–12. I love bringing creativity, movement, and play into my time with kids to keep things fun and engaging. I grew up in Palm Springs but now live in Orange County, and I occasionally visit my hometown, so I’m open to jobs in both areas. I’m also happy to provide pet care! My family has a beagle, and I have hands-on experience with dog walking, feeding, and playtime (cats included!). I’m comfortable caring for large animals too. Outside of work, I love music, dancing, festivals, concerts, fashion, shopping, arts and crafts, reading, movies, and anything creative. I’d describe myself as outgoing and adventurous, with a genuine passion for helping others and learning new things.

Emma $26 per hour for 1 child

Hi, my name is Emma and I'm currently available for pet sitting services for dogs, cats, and other loved friends! I've grown up with animals my whole life and have a genuine love of caring for them. I have experience caring for dogs of all sizes from small breeds to large active pups, and I'm comfortable with cats of every personality, from shy snugglers to outgoing explorers. I also have a special fondness for senior animals and find their calm, gentle nature incredibly rewarding to care for. Whether your pet is young or old, high energy or a career homebody, I'll meet them right where they are. My services include daily walks, playtime, feeding, medication administration, and overnight stays in your home so your pets can stick to their routines. I'm also happy to water plants, bring in mail, and send you photo updates so you have peace of mind while you're away. I'm reliable, patient, and attentive to each pet's unique needs. Whether your dog needs a long hike or your cat prefers quiet company, I'll make sure they feel safe and loved while you're gone. I look forward to caring for your furry family members!

Mackenzie $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m Mackenzie I’m a college student at cal state Fullerton. I’m offering babysitting and pet sitting services. I don’t have too much one on one experience taking care of children but I was a lifeguard for 2 summers at a waterpark working with children all day where I was also cpr and first aid trained. I’ve always been pretty good with kids taking care of younger family members and family friends. I do have experience taking care of pets though. I’m very friendly and I have a pretty flexible schedule. I’m a good cook and I can drive although my daily car is pretty small. I can help with household chores and errands as needed. I could also help with homework and projects.

Shirley $35 per hour for 1 child

I began babysitting as a teenager and have cared for children of many different ages over the years. I’m also a mother of two grown children, so I have firsthand experience caring for children through every stage, from infancy to adulthood. I completed Early Childhood Education coursework and spent much of my professional career supporting children, mothers, and families as a Domestic Violence Counselor/Advocate and through a Riverside County family treatment program. I’m patient, dependable, safety-conscious, and committed to helping children feel comfortable, respected, and cared for. I enjoy reading, crafts, outdoor activities, and encouraging children to learn through play. I’m currently looking for occasional babysitting opportunities and would love to provide a local family with warm, reliable, and compassionate care.

Elena 3 reviews
$25 per hour for 1 child

Hello! My name is Elena, I am 63 years old, and I would love to become a caring and reliable part of your family’s support system. I bring 15 years of childcare experience along with the invaluable perspective of being a mother myself — I have raised three successful, well-mannered children. Families describe me as patient, responsible, and warm-hearted. I create a safe and structured environment where children feel supported and motivated. I especially enjoy providing homework help, after-school care, and reliable school pick-up and drop-off. In addition to childcare, I can assist with meal prep and light housekeeping to help your household run smoothly. I am fluent in both English and Russian, and I love sharing cultural perspectives that broaden children’s horizons. I have a flexible schedule and am available for full-time, weekdays and weekends if needed. Parents can rely on me as a trustworthy, experienced caregiver who is dedicated to children’s happiness, safety, and growth.

“Я с огромным удовольствием рекомендую Елену как внимательного, надежного, грамотного и ответственного педагога и помощника. Она более 5 лет обучала нашего ребенка русскому языку, помогала выполнять школьные задания, объясняла математику, развивала логическое мышление и мелкую моторику, играла, сопровождала на кружки. Всегда пунктуальна, организованна и очень надежна. Мы полностью доверяли ей нашего ребенка — неоднократно даже оставляли её с ней, когда вылетали в другую страну. Благодаря Лене всё прошло спокойно, ребенок был под заботливым и внимательным присмотром. Очень благодарны за сотрудничество и с уверенностью рекомендуем ее другим семьям. С уважением,
Жанна”
