Hi there! My name is Ariella, and I’m excited to share a bit about myself. I’m an experienced and reliable caregiver passionate about providing the best care for children. Growing up in a big family, I spent much time looking after my nieces and nephews, where my love for childcare began. Since then, I’ve enjoyed working with many other families, helping their kids grow, learn, and have fun! I’m also proud of my background—I’m African American and bilingual, with French as my first language and English as my second. Speaking both languages has been a big part of my life. When I’m not babysitting, you’ll often find me enjoying my other passions—listening to music, exploring art and cinema, photography, and going to school. I’m also a Christian, and my faith shapes my belief in kindness, patience, and the importance of helping others. For me, caregiving isn’t just a job—it’s something I truly love doing. I believe that when you follow your passion, it shines through in the care and attention you give. I'm looking forward to meeting you and your little ones!

She was very cordial and my son really enjoyed her company. She made my son feel very comfortable and played (Puzzles, Stories, books, walk in the stroller) with her the whole time. Just perfect!

I truly love Alyssa. She is very professional, reliable and loving. Her energy is amazing and my son adores her. I only wish I could keep her to myself lol. She is just a joy. I was very apprehensive using a site to assist me with care for my 3 year old son. I did countless interviews but as soon as I interviewed her I knew she was the one. I only hope that one day I can afford to keep her full-time. Thank you for loving and caring for my baby .

My family and I are from NJ, and we are staying at the Four Seasons Hotel in Westlake Village, CA. I have a 21 month old son and a 4 year old. Gail agreed to meet my family at our hotel for an interview and she arrived early. She spoke openly to my children and to me and my husband. We were very comfortable with her. Gail arrived arrived on time for her first shift and she immediately jumped into the routine with the kids. I was worried about my son because he usually takes a few days to adjust to new people. I watched quietly from the side as Gail dressed him. Initially, he started to fuss until Gail turned his fussing into a game. His fussing soon turned into a game.My daughter was very comfortable with Gail too. My daughter is very talkative and immediately started telling Gail about her toys and her day. Gail listened attentively and asked questions. She was able to keep my daughter engaged an excited. Gail also told me that she noticed that my son was swallowing a lot. That was before I told her that he had a poor appetite, a cough and a mild case of acid reflux. That showed me that she was not only friendly and playful with the kids, but attentive to the kid's behaviors. Overall, Gail is kind, reliable, professional, soft spoken, gentle and engaging. I would definitely use Gail again if she is available. I would definitely recommend her to another family and provide a verbal reference if necessary. Nadine Fuller

Hi! I'm Lexy! I have been an animal lover my whole life and have my own pet family. I enjoy spending time with other people's pets when they go on vacation or they are a little too busy. I have had dogs and cats my whole life and have about 3 years of experience working as a pet sitter! Although my main speciality is pet care for dogs and cats, I am also available to help with babysitting, household assistant tasks such as running errands, groceries, laundry, dishes, cleaning, helping with meal prep, etc., senior care such as driving to appointments, running errands, prescription pick up, keeping them company, etc. I have minimal experience working with children through my seasonal full time job as a school yearbook photographer. Although I do not have much experience working with children, I am reliable, responsible, and a quick learner. I don't drink alcohol, do drugs (including weed), and I don't smoke. I have a valid driver's license.
