Jillian M.
- 1 year paid experience
- 14 miles
Hi! My name is Jillian, and I’m originally from Orange County, California. I’m 24 years old and have spent the past year working in retail, where I’ve developed strong communication and multitasking skills. I’m currently very flexible and available, making it easy to fit your family’s scheduling needs. I have prior babysitting experience, both for families in my community and for my own siblings, which helped me develop a natural sense of patience, responsibility, and creativity when working with kids. I truly enjoy spending time with children — whether it’s helping with homework, playing outside, or keeping them engaged with fun activities. In addition to childcare, I’ve also done dog walking and pet care, so I’m more than happy to help with family pets as well. I’m excited to bring my positive energy, reliability, and nurturing personality to a family that could use an extra helping hand.

Hi! My name is Alyssa. I’m 24 years old. I grew up with a younger sister, who I always enjoyed helping care for. I have always enjoyed being around children, as they bring back that little childhood spark. I hope to not only care for the child, but also help engage their minds. I have had multiple jobs in which I cared for children of all ages. I worked at an after school daycare, which the children were 5-12 years of age. I also worked at a preschool, which the children were 6 wks-4 years of age. I am also CPR certified, as well as Covid vaccinated. Unfortunately, I cannot drive as I have not learned how, but I am dedicated and have no problem walking to and from your house (if close enough). I look forward to talking with you and hopefully working with you!

Hello, My name is Rubia, I am 35 years old and a career nanny/family assistant with 15 years of nannying and family assisting experience.

Elizabeth A.
- 2 years paid experience
- 14 miles
I truly love being a sitter because I enjoy building meaningful connections with children and being someone families can trust. I don’t have children of my own yet, but I hope to one day, and being a sitter allows me to experience and appreciate every stage of childhood now. I have several years of nannying experience and a strong background in healthcare, which has taught me how important patience, safety, and compassion are. I’m CPR certified and currently finishing school for ultrasound, so caring for others is something I’m genuinely passionate about. I’m a very sweet, calm, and compassionate person with a big heart, and I take pride in creating a safe, loving, and positive environment for the children I care for. Helping families and watching kids grow is incredibly rewarding to me.

Madeline H.
- 3 years paid experience
- 1 mile
Hi I’m Madeline, and I’ve worked with children ages 8 weeks & up, on and off since my high school years! I often would babysit during summer time throughout high school, and I worked in a church nursery during college to gain lots of experience. Things like communicating specific child needs/concerns with parents, providing comfort and emotional/physical care to children (i.e. soothing with songs or distracting with toys during distress), as well as observing play activities to identify positive behaviors and implementing behavior redirection when appropriate were all valuable learning experiences I gained during this time, on top of doing the basic tasks like changing diapers and providing snacks/meals. I am also CPR certified as of August 2023. I must say, working with children is one of the most fulfilling jobs I think a girl can have! Even after graduating college, I worked in a pediatric dental office for nearly two years and it was so much fun getting to still be surrounded by kiddos each day. That being said, I am currently in the middle of figuring out my career path and looking for something to fulfill me in the meantime!
