I am an individual with over eight years of experience in child care and also with older adults with intellectual disabilities. I am currently completing three years of work specifically with adults with intellectual disabilities, where I am dedicated to teaching how to become more independent. For example, I am committed to helping individuals learn how to obtain and maintain a job, complete volunteer hours, improve their educational skills, and maintain good personal presentation. I am also responsible for transporting individuals in my personal vehicle. One of my favorite parts of the job is actively participating in daily activities, like playing with infants, teaching them to speak their first words, or guiding them during mealtime routines. I am certified in CPR and First Aid. I am friendly, reliable, and passionate about building strong connections with both children and adults. I am currently available in the afternoons and on weekends. Communication is very important to me, so please don’t hesitate to reach out to request references or to schedule a call. I am excited to continue sharing my passion and positive attitude with families, something that has brought me years of rewarding experiences.

Hello! My name is Ivonne Marquez and I live in Anaheim. I am 25 years old and I have around 4 years of paid experience. I have had the most wonderful experiences with the families I’ve worked with and it has been so rewarding seeing their little ones grow up. I have experience mostly with 1-3 year olds but have also have experience with older kids. I also have been a designated homeschool teacher for a whole school year, so homework help and tutoring is not a problem. I am comfortable with small children the youngest I cared for has been 9 months and my goal is always for them to be entertained, be taken care of,and to be safe. I gladly stick to any rules parents set with their children and understand when a parent trusts me with their kids it’s a huge deal so I take care of them like if they were my own. I am CPR/ First AID / AED certified, fluent in Spanish, have my own transportation and am really easy to get along both with parents and their children. I respect any precautions that may be needed coming into your home . I can provide negative Covid-19 test results and vaccine record if needed. Also references can be provided upon request. I don’t travel with families on vacations

I want to give a huge thank you to Ivonne for taking care of my baby twice a week for the past six months. She is an amazing caregiver who went above and beyond to keep my baby happy, comfortable, and engaged. Whether it was taking her to the park, drawing pictures, or reading to her, Ivonne always found ways to make my baby smile. I appreciated her reliability and knowledge of toddlers, which gave me peace of mind while I was working. I highly recommend Ivonne to any parent looking for a loving and trustworthy babysitter.

Nanette is the best sitter we've ever had!! She is the only person outside of my family that I have felt 100% comfortable leaving my daughter with. She always knows what to do and you can tell that she's a great mom, which is very important in my opinion! Nanette also looks after our dog when we're out of town, and every time she comes to pick her up, our dog gets overly excited. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Nanette to anyone!

Jessica has taken care of our younger child since she was 5 years old. I have worked with several nannies in the past 14 years between my two children. She is by far the best. I am amazed at her patience and how she gently teaches the child what is right as part of playing. She is always on time. You don’t have to remind her of anything once you gave her the schedule. She is very accommodating and genuinely loves working with children.Unfortunately, we moved much farther to continue working with her, but we still request her services from time to time because our child loves her so much and wants to spend time with her.

Hello ! My name is Leannah and I'm so excited to meet you! I graduated from UC Davis in 2022 and grew up in the Bay Area. My journey as a babysitter began from a young age, having to watch over my younger siblings while my parent was away at work. I have since utilized that experience to help out many families and have had awesome experiences. I find that children have always connected to my personality and my exciting spirit. Aside from babysitting, I have done all sorts of jobs from cashiering to volunteering at pet shelters to even providing care for the elderly. I’ve always loved being a babysitter. It is the most rewarding and fulfilling job out there. Children are a delightful gift: they bring so much joy to my heart and make every day so much better. Playing outside, playing games and encouraging children to use their imagination is something that I am passionate about. The relationship that you’re able to build with a family is something you can’t really find in the work world. Currently, I am an Elementary School Librarian, and work with kids from all ages (starting as little as 2)! I am open to work over the summer and date nights.

I love kids and want to provide better care for kids of all backgrounds with care and understanding. I’m offering child care and light household services while kids are asleep. I love all animals, personally I have 2 cats and 1dog. I love being a babysitter, I’ve been watching babies and toddlers since I was 15! I enjoy activities with kids like coloring, playing outside, reading and singing. With infants I love to put on music, and talking to them is essential for their development as well as plenty of love and attention. I’m always up for a challenge and to try new things! As of now I’m a pharmacy technician and a CNA(certified nursing assistant) although I’m still furthering my nursing career. -Basic Life Support provider certified through the American Heart Association -Hospital Fire and Life Safety certified through SureFire -CPR certified through SureFire

Bertha has watched my daughter a few times now and I think she's a fabulous caregiver. She is great with my daughter. She's fed her meals, taken care of her when sick, and put her down for naps. She stepped into babysitting for us so seamlessly. I can't say enough good things about her!

Roxana is an amazing sitter! We had her watch our little guy and I could tell she had lots of experience with kids. I was pleased with her knowledge of how to handle infants and she was able to get him down for a nap with ease. Definitely recommend!

I have some experience working with babies and 1 year olds up to 3 year olds. I love to play with babies, change them, watch them, and protect them. I have worked at three churches working with babies ages 0-3 and other ages. I can tolerate loud crying, and I can carry them for long periods of time, and sing to them and play with them to keep them calm. I love working with children, and being a support system and guide for them and being an assistance for the parents.

Jessica is fantastic. She’s always on time and has been available even with short notice, which we really appreciate. My daughter felt comfortable with her immediately, even though Jessica was the first person outside our family to care for her. She has such a calm, reassuring energy and a very poised personality. I would definitely work with her again.
