Brenda 1 review
$25 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Silver Lake, CA

Hi! My name is Brenda. I absolutely love working with children and creating supportive, engaging, and meaningful experiences for them. I’ve been babysitting since I was 12 years old and have had the joy of caring for some of the same children all the way through their high school years. Building real relationships with families and watching kids grow has been one of the most rewarding parts of my journey. I currently babysit for a wonderful family of three children ages 6, 9, and 12, where I support with dinner, evening routines like reading together, and fun outdoor adventures including hiking and exploring nature. I also occasionally take two girls on cultural and educational excursions around the city, helping them learn through experiences, curiosity, and discovery. I hold a degree in World Arts and Cultures from UCLA, which allows me to bring creativity, storytelling, movement, and arts activities into the time I spend with kids. I value imagination, kindness, learning, and creating an uplifting environment where kids feel safe and supported. For families with teens, I’m also happy to support with college preparation, including guidance on admissions written statements and helping students express their stories and strengths confidently as my professional training centers around supporting students. I’m reliable, patient, nurturing, and genuinely enjoy being part of a child’s world. I would love to support your family, too!

“Brenda helped me with an apartment cleaning job - she was on time and very thorough, and she always had a smile on her face. She's great!”

Hello! I bring decades of experience to your family as I am a mother, and I babysit my nieces and nephews. I am well versed in STEM-based teaching curriculum and arts-based learning. I hold a UCLA degree and am fully fluent in English and Spanish. I am also a trained birth doula to support new parents. I also successfully raised my son, who is now in college. Aside from babysitting, I am willing to run errands and do your family’s grocery shopping. I am community-minded and recently won an award from the LA County for Human Relations - LA vs Hate project, I love to laugh, teach children how to read, write and do crafts and art projects. I can also teach your children some basic capoeira moves. I am willing to commute kids to school and prepare healthy meals. I also love being around elders from your family and am willing to run errands for them as well. Feel free to reach out and I’d be happy to send you my resume.

Fung 3 reviews
$21 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Silver Lake, CA

Hi , my name is Queenie and Fung is my official name. I graduated from East Los Angeles community college. I’m a house wife and a mother of 15 year old son. My family includes my husband, my son and 3 dogs. I enjoy being a babysitter because l love kids. I volunteer at my son’s school, Repetto Elementary School for 3 years, assisting kindergarten teachers with craft projects . Additionally, I have volunteer at the San Gabriel Humane Society Animal Shelter for 8 years, walking with the dogs, doing laundry and helping with events. I also serve as the secretary of the Honor Society at Sunshine Tennis School at Tample City, where my son has been a student for 6 years and my husband volunteers as a coach almost every Sunday morning. Furthermore, I had volunteered at my son’s Boy Scouts workshop at the T286 Troop in Monterey Park since he was 6 years old. Through these experiences, l have learned how to care for and communicate with both children and animals. I cook for my family every day and manage household chores. I am seeking a part time or full time job to continue supporting my family. I hope to hear from you ! l took a Babysitter training with the American Red Cross and also received a certificate on August 3, 2024. I have completed the American Heart Association Basic Life Support (CPR and AED) program and received their certification, along with a First Aid certification card on August 15 and 18, 2024. I attended the CERT (Community Emergency Response Team) basic lifesaving training class at the Monterey Park Fire Department in November 7-10. The CERT certificate will be sent out to participants in a couple of months. I have been caring for a young girl since 2024, starting when she was 9 months old (she is now 2 years and 8 months). Previously, from 2024 to 2025, I spent a year babysitting a 6-year-old girl and her 1-and-a-half-year-old brother.

“Queenie (Fung Yeung) took care of my daughter for almost two years, and I honestly can't say enough good things about her. She didn't just watch my daughter — she genuinely cared for her and went above and beyond every single day. She was patient, warm, and so attentive, and she put real thought into helping my daughter learn and grow, turning everyday moments into little learning opportunities. My daughter adored her, and I always knew she was in the very best hands. We are so grateful to have had Queenie in our lives, and I recommend her wholeheartedly to any family.”

Gwendolyn 1 review
$30 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Silver Lake, CA

Hey there! My name is Gwendolyn, and I have over 15 years of babysitting experience. I have cared for children of all ages, including working as a summer nanny and supporting children on the spectrum. I especially enjoy working with creative and imaginative kids, and I love encouraging fun activities, crafts, and play. In addition to childcare, I regularly care for pets and have experience with senior dogs and cats, including administering medication. I am also available to assist as a household helper-whether that’s light cooking, cleaning, running errands, or helping with day-to-day tasks. And a bit about me: I love all things vintage fashion, Disney, and American Girl dolls. I’m really into history, storytelling, and creative hobbies, which is probably why I get along so well with imaginative kids. I’m friendly, reliable, and genuinely enjoy getting to know and build ongoing relationships with the families I work with.

“Gwen was so great. When I asked my 5 year old if he liked her he said “I love her” 🥰 Will definitely be hiring her again!”

Amelia 1 review
$25 per hour for 1 child

As the oldest of eight cousins on my mom’s side, I’ve been looking after younger kids since I was young. I’ve babysat children of all ages and even ran a kids’ softball camp where I made sure everyone felt included, had fun, and learned new skills in a safe environment. I’m CPR certified and comfortable helping with homework, preparing meals, and planning creative or active playtime. In addition to childcare, I have a big heart for animals. I have my own dog and have also been dog-sitting for over 7 years—feeding, walking, playing, and making sure pets are well cared for while their owners are away. I’m familiar with different breeds and comfortable around large animals and pets that shed. When it comes to household services, I’m happy to help with anything that makes your life easier—cleaning, laundry, running errands, organizing, whatever you need! Whether it’s kids, pets, or general help around the house, I’m here to help however I can!

“Amelia arrived early which is always refreshing. She was so sweet and proactive about wanting to find what interests my kids have. She was so hands on with play, followed my guidelines/rules of the house, and tidied up as requested. She stayed a little later because we were running late. My kids raved all the next day what a fun time they had with her. She is professional yet fun, responsible and trustworthy. We would very highly recommend Amelia.”
