Hi! My name is Jenn! Currently living in La Quinta but was born and raised in Massachusetts (Rhode Island for college) and lived in LA for ten years. I am a freelance make-up & hair artist which leaves me with a flexible schedule. I'm best used for one off and last minute sitting. I travel with a sunny disposition, a creative mind and a lot of patience. I love playing outdoors, doing arts & crafts, helping with homework, and making kids laugh. I have been known to bring art supplies, make-up and special effects supplies (painting fake latex fingers is always a crowd pleaser) to keep kids entertained. Also, I don't mind doing a little light cleaning & cooking if you need it. I have worked with children of all ages since I was about 15. While living in Rhode Island, post college, I worked as a Home Based Therapist for children with special needs for almost 5 years before moving to LA. In that position I was trained in crisis prevention, CPR and Sign Language. Then while living in LA, I nannied part time and babysat for other families who were regulars.
“Jenn was great! Super communicative and the kids liked her a lot. We were staying in a hotel room and she wasn’t phased by the tight quarters. Would recommend!”
I am a retired early childhood teacher with 25+ years of Elementary School teaching. I love children so I immediately try to establish rapport with them no matter what age. I bring books, toys and games that are age appropriate and will keep your child happy and engaged. I have 3 teenage grandsons so I have experience dealing with all ages. Unfortunately, they are in New York so I treasure getting to know new families.
“Lisa is fantastic. She arrived early, brought a bunch of fun toys, and immediately had our daughter entertained. We feel lucky to have found someone as great as Lisa. ”
Hello, I'm Alecea. I am 27 and have always loved children. I have gotten myself involved in anything babysitting related from watching babies during Sunday church services to babysitting family and family friends children. I am CPR and First Aid Certified because it's always better to be on the safer side. I have a B.S. in Elementary and Special Needs Education and a M.A. in Curriculum and Instruction. I am currently a Special Needs Teacher for 2nd - 5th grade here in the Coachella Valley. I am very attentive, loving and friendly. I enjoy and love children beyond words and I hope that you can have trust in me to take care of your child.
“Alecea babysat our daughters while we were visiting for the weekend! Prompt, communicative and the girls loved her.”
Hey! My name is Naomi and I have my Bachelor’s Degree in Psychology, with my AA in Early Childhood Education. With that being said, I have been working with children for a little over a decade now and I love every minute of it! I currently work full-time in a private learning center where I work as a Lead Teacher in the infant classroom. I’ve worked with infants, toddlers, pre-school, school-age, middle & high schoolers! I am CPR & First-Aid certified, have my reliable transportation & I love working with kids!! I have younger siblings so I use them as my guinea pigs for creative fun activities for us to do. Well I’ve said too much, thank you all for taking the time to read this. As far as pricing goes, I can be very reasonable and fair, as long as we communicate and work something out! I do have a standard rate of charging an extra +$3-5 when it involves an infant-toddler as this is my specialty. Of course, my pricing also depends on the occasion, day, holiday, every factor counts! Let me know if you have any questions, I’m here to help you out ! I should also mention this- my policy is, whether the sitting ends before the original designated time you had requested for me, I would still expect the pay for the time you scheduled. My rates are hourly & begin hourly (if it’s less than 3 hours), so for example if the time is less than 1 hour, I would still be paid for 1 full hour. If it’s less than 3, I would be paid for the full 3 hours. Due to the fact that my day is already planned around the time of the sitting so it is only fair, I get paid for my time, which includes mileage. Thank you in advance!
