My name is Bridget! I am an entertainment industry professional who has almost 17 years of childcare experience. I am available on weekday evenings and weekends. I am offering child care, and needed household services. I have been both a date night and evening babysitter and also have worked as a full-time nanny. I have experience caring for newborns, infants, toddlers, and kids. I am also open to household care work while being there including cleaning, cooking etc. I am friendly with pets (mainly dogs and cats) and willing to care for the animals while at your home.
I have a strong background in caring for children and pets, and I genuinely enjoy helping families feel safe and supported. I’ve worked with kids of different ages, assisting with daily routines, playtime, homework, meals, and bedtime. I’m patient, attentive, and dependable, and I always prioritize a child’s safety and well-being. I also have experience pet sitting for dogs and cats, including feeding, walking, administering basic care, and providing plenty of affection and companionship. I understand how important it is to follow routines and respect each pet’s unique personality. I’m organized, reliable, and happy to help with light household tasks when needed. My goal is always to give families peace of mind knowing their kids and pets are in caring, capable hands.
Hello! My name is Nia and I have 15 years babysitting newborns, infants and children. I have professional experience at a daycare for ages 1-4 as well as in my 6th year working through a private babysitting company. I also have experience coaching 6 year old basketball I am also comfortable watching and helping the elderly with basic tasks such as cooking, cleaning around the house and also just providing company. I can keep them quite entertained with my stories. I used to work at the local animal shelter and prior to that was a successful dog walker so I am very comfortable with all animals. I’m very energetic and nurturing so I do really well entertaining my 3 year old perfect nephew when I babysit him weekly.
“Nia was great! She was very cool, down to earth, and our girls really liked her - we would totally have her back!”
Hi, my name is Madison and I just graduated from American University. I was in Girl Scouts for all of my K-12 education, volunteered at a preschool, and also worked at a ballet studio for younger kids so I'm very comfortable working with children. I also worked as a tutor/mentor at a middle school in D.C. I also love animals. I have a dog of my own and this past summer I also helped nurse kittens at Best Friends Animal Society!
Hi! I’m a developmental therapist with a genuine passion for working with children and supporting their growth, confidence, and emotional well-being. I currently work with children ages 3–10 while pursuing my Master’s in Counseling Psychology with a focus on Marriage and Family Therapy. I also have a Bachelor’s degree in Child and Adolescent Development, with a concentration in Youth Work and Out-of-School Time. I’ve spent over six years working with children in a variety of settings, including schools, preschools, camps, and families’ homes. I’ve worked in special education with LAUSD, taught preschool in both San Francisco and Portland, and spent four years as a camp counselor with Camp Galileo. These experiences have given me the opportunity to work with children of different ages, personalities, and needs, and have taught me how important it is to meet each child where they are. I also have several years of nannying experience and have worked with around seven different families. I’ve helped with everything from weekly childcare and school pickups to overnight trips, meal preparation, bedtime routines, arts and crafts, homework, and keeping children engaged throughout the day. I really enjoy creating a balance between structure and fun—whether that means getting creative with an activity, heading outside to play, helping with homework, or simply being a caring and dependable presence for a child. Outside of my professional work, I’ve always been passionate about giving back to children and families. I’ve volunteered with organizations such as Safe & Sound, where I provided peer counseling and support, and Reading Partners, where I tutored elementary school children who were working to improve their reading skills. I would describe myself as warm, patient, responsible, and easygoing. I truly enjoy getting to know each child as an individual and creating a relationship where they feel comfortable, supported, and encouraged to be themselves. I’d love the opportunity to get to know your family and see how I can be a helpful part of your child’s life!
“Janie was an excellent sitter for our two young children (4 and 6). She is warm and calm, listens carefully and responds thoughtfully to our children. She provides constructive guidance to them, helps them stay organized, encourages them to use words to talk out their disputes, and makes them feel safe. She was always on time, and proactive in planning. She helped with school pick-up and prepped dinner and fed our children on some evenings. I would definitely hire Janie again, and recommend her highly for your family.”
