Brittany K.
- 29 years paid experience
- 11 miles
Hello! My name is Britt. 😊 I grew up in WA state near Seattle and came to CA for college. I have 29 years of experience... Ever since age 13 I’ve babysat for several families at a time and also loved it! I think the best part of it all is getting to see these tiny beings change and grow, seeing their personalities come to light. Many might see babysitting as just a necessity for parents to be able to go out and have adult time, but it’s so much more than that. It’s a chance to have fun, to engage a child’s sense of wonder and their sense of self. I like to do activities with them and be outdoors when possible. I’m very respectful of parents’ preferences and like to follow their same rules set for their kids. I know that being a parent can sometimes be challenging... I can be there to help give you a much needed break or to help make daily life a little easier for you. While I have not been blessed to be a mother yet myself, I’ve learned a wide variety of things from each of the families I’ve had the pleasure to know and love. I have experience with autistic, Down syndrome, as well as behaviorally challenged individuals. I can help with homework, house work, transportation, and errands. I also am available for overnights, weekend stays (or longer if needed) and assistance on family vacations. Any other questions feel free to ask! ☺️

My name is Bailey and I am CPR & AED /First Aide certified. I have always loved kids and spending time with them, as I grew up my mom had a daycare I would help with when I was not at school. I helped take care of newborns up to 10 yr olds. I also have a younger brother that I have helped with. During the summer I would help take the kids to the park, watch them in the pool, do fun activities, and take them on cool field trips to things like the kids museum.

Suraya L.
- 1 year paid experience
- 14 miles
Hello!!! My name is Suraya, but I go by Oliver (he/him)! I had been doing childcare work for a little under a year with the Parks and Recreation youth services and have noticed that I really enjoy my one-on-one opportunities with my kiddos. I have a lot of creative and artistic skills, and I really enjoy using my art to bond with my kids. I’m also able to work children down from frustration or overwhelming feelings. They’re kids, their feelings are very big and very loud. I like to give them the space to feel what they need while making sure they understand the consequences if they did anything they weren’t supposed to. They need to learn, but they need to be allowed to feel too. I have experience with autistic kids as well, as an autistic person myself! I’ve been able to help autistic kiddos out of meltdowns and being overstimulated. Whatever they need, I want to be able to supply! I hope I can help you and your kiddo ♡
