** 20 Years Experience (coach, mentor and child care/companion) I’m a fun, trusted and experienced male caregiver offering an alternative to the traditional sitter. Still youthful and active, I bring the reliability of a seasoned adult with the energy and playfulness of a “fun uncle” who keeps kids safe, engaged, and genuinely enjoying their time. I'm patient, dependable, and fully engaged--never just supervising. I'm UCLA-educated with a background in computers and business, and I have worked with nearly 750 children, connecting naturally with kids of all ages. I balance fun with responsibility for homework help, games, outings, and being a steady, positive presence. I'm happy to help with driving to/from school and activities, homework (I'm also a tutor), plus adventures to parks, beaches, museums or other educational venues. I believe in clear communication with parents, so that my care follows your expectations and routines, making sure we’re aligned as a Read more team. Long-term connection is desired. For your peace of mind, I have: • Live Scan (fingerprints) and background-checks through AYSO, YMCA, and other organizations • Safe driving record • Local references available • 20+ hours of child-safety training completed through various programs If you’re open to a dependable, mature male sitter who brings both structure and playfulness, I’d love to support your family. How can I help make your kids’ day a little brighter?

As a single mom with an 8-year-old son, finding someone I could genuinely trust was extremely important to me, and Kevin turned out to be an exceptional caregiver. He was consistently reliable and communicative, helping with school pickups, transportation to activities, and making sure my son was always engaged and having fun. More than that, he built a meaningful bond with my son and became a trusted part of our family—a positive, steady male role model my child really looked up to. My son always enjoyed the time they spent together, and I had complete peace of mind knowing he was being cared for so well. Our arrangement only ended because we moved, and I would enthusiastically recommend him to any family looking for a caring, dependable, and trustworthy caregiver.

Kevin was fantastic with our family! He regularly cared for our two boys (6yo and 10yo) and was always dependable, patient, attentive, and great at keeping them engaged. He spent time with them both at home and on outings—like trips to the beach, the park, museums, and even mini golf during school breaks—and we always felt comfortable knowing they were safe and well cared for. He also helped with homework, handled school pick-ups, and got the kids to and from their activities, managing their busy schedules without any issues. One thing we particularly appreciated was how communicative he was—he always kept us in the loop, which meant a lot to us and gave us peace of mind. Our boys genuinely loved spending time with Kevin, and he did an excellent job balancing fun with structure and responsibility. We would absolutely recommend him to any family looking for a trustworthy, caring sitter.
