(I am the female on the left side with black hair) Hello moms and dads, my name is Caitlin. I have had a shared love to help families with their kids when needed. I am in college for that very reason: to work in pediatrics as a counselor! I am a very joyful and caring person who loves to make families and their kids feel safe. I know it can be scary to trust someone with your kids, so I want you to know you can trust me. My whole life I have been the “babysitter” and everyone in my family (and now my friends) have let me watch their baby’s and children when they need a date night, a trip, or just some free time. I’d love to get in further contact with you parents. I am an online college student, CPR/AED certified, and I have my own vehicle.

Hi! I’m a college student studying psychology with a strong interest in human development. I love being a sitter because I enjoy creating a safe, positive, and supportive environment where kids feel comfortable and cared for. I’ve worked as a childcare assistant at an elementary school, helping students with reading, homework, and staying focused after school. I also have lifelong experience helping care for a close relative with ASD, which has taught me patience, attentiveness, and how to adapt to different needs. I’m reliable, calm, and genuinely enjoy helping kids learn, grow, and feel safe.

Hello my name is Lucy!I'm 23 years old and am an Elementary Education major at West LA College (formerly attending Cal State Long Beach) I currently work as a paraprofessional in a 2nd-grade classroom. Working with children isn't just my job, it's something I truly enjoy and hope to continue as a future educator. :)I have experience caring for children from 4 months old through elementary age. Before working in an elementary school, I worked at a daycare with toddlers which gave me hands on experience with every stage of early childhood, from naps and diaper changes to helping school aged kids with homework, building confidence and encouraging independence! ☀️I love creating fun and engaging experiences for kids, whether that's arts and crafts, sensory play, outdoor adventures, reading together, educational games, or simply joining in on whatever sparks their imagination! I'm happy to follow your family's routine and understand that every child has their own unique personality and needs! My goal is to be someone your children are excited to see and someone you can feel completely comfortable leaving them with. I'm patient, dependable, organized and genuinely care about helping children feel safe, supported and encouraged while having fun.I'd love the opportunity to support your family!
