Hello there, thank you for taking to time to look into me as a potential caregiver! A little bit about me: I am a nanny/ babysitter splitting my time between New Orleans and the Bay Area. I am certified in Pediatric First Aid and CPR. I received my diploma in massage therapy and health education from the National Holistic Institute in 2012. I'm a local musician, and enjoy dancing, skateboarding, and hiking in my free time. I started my childcare career when I was 19 years old in 2011, as an Au pair in Oxford, England. There, I lived with a with a wonderful family and cared for their daughter who was 3 years old. My responsibilities included childcare 30-40 hours a week, organizing and structuring stimulating and engaging activities, chores, errands and light housework. This family became very special to me as I lived with and worked for them. After massage school, I found my way back to caring for children with babysitting and had a client base of 30+ families in California before moving to Nola. I love them all dearly and can't believe how fast they grow! I have experience with newborns all the way to 15 years old. Nannying has given me the chance to make lifelong friendship and family bonds with so many beautiful people all these years; something that I truly treasure. I would love to learn more about you, your family and your unique needs. Looking forward to meeting you!

Amethyst was fantastic with our daughter. We will definitely use her as a sitter again!

Booked by 1 family in Violet, LA

I am an experienced pet sitter and house sitter living in the Seventh Ward of New Orleans. I primarily take care of dogs and cats, but I have also cared for guinea pigs, rabbits, and one very large Vietnamese pot belly pig. I am available for walks if nearby, but I primarily do overnights and stay with the animals in their own home while their people are away for work or vacation. I also take care of looking after the household while you are out of town.

Katie is an absolute gem of a pet sitter! She recently cared for our two Pomeranians, Loki and Watson, and went above and beyond to make sure they were happy, healthy, and loved while we were away. From the moment we met Katie, her warmth and genuine love for animals were immediately clear. She took the time to understand their routines, quirks, and personalities, which put us completely at ease. Loki and Watson can be a bit high-maintenance, but Katie handled them like a pro. She sent us regular updates with photos and videos, and it was so comforting to see how happy and relaxed they were in her care. It’s clear she treated them like her own pets. When we returned, they were calm, content, and even better behaved—Katie’s care and attention made all the difference. If you’re looking for someone who will love and care for your pets as much as you do, Katie is the one. Her reliability, kindness, and professionalism deserve more than five stars! We’ll definitely be booking her again!

Megan $22 per hour for 1 child

Hello, my name is Megan. As a caregiver I am fun, attentive, and patient. I treat children with kindness and the utmost respect. I love the outdoors, music, and literature. I am energetic and enjoy playing games and going on outdoor treks and adventures. I love to play guitar, piano, and sing. I know a lot of kids songs, including a few originals. I have a great deal of experience of caring for children, ages 6 months - 11 years old. I have earned 30+ units of early childhood education credits and am CPR and First aid certified. I get an extreme sense of joy spending time with children and seeing them grow into their own unique person. Positive reinforcement and providing opportunities to succeed are, I believe, the key to witness a child thrive. If you give me your email address I can send you my resume. Thank you for your time I look forward to connecting with you.

Alexey $15 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Alexey and I am a 25 year old artist living in New Orleans. Caring for children has always been an interest of mine. I taught swim lessons to children back in my home town and I have also volunteered once a year at orphanages in underprivileged countries for the past 5 years. Pets also have a special place in my heart because I come from a family of farmers and grew up on a ranch. I have 2 kitties of my own now! In my grandparents final years I took them to appointments, took care of their home, and loved spending time with them and hearing their stories. I have a lot of free time so if you are in need of a care giver of any kind, at any time- I’m your girl! :)

I am a trained art teacher and have taught art to up to 30 children at a time all through my life. More recently I work as an art teacher for Art Klub and Camp 504. I am a playful, creative, compassionate care taker of all creatures young, old and furry.
