** 20 YEARS EXPERIENCE (coach, mentor and child care/companion) Hi! I'm a mature, experienced male caregiver offering an alternative to the traditional sitter. Still youthful but in my 50s now, I bring the reliability of a seasoned adult with the energy and playfulness of a "fun uncle" who keeps kids safe, active and involved, and genuinely enjoying their time. I'm patient, dependable, and fully engaged--never just supervising. I'm UCLA-educated, semi-retired after a 30-year career in IT, and have over 20 years of coaching and mentoring experience. I've worked with nearly 750 children and connect 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 school drop offs, activities, and adventures to parks, beaches, museums or other educational venues. I value clear communication with parents, so care always matches your routines and expectations. Long-term connection is desired.
As a single mom of an 8-year-old, finding someone I could truly trust with my son was incredibly important, and Kevin exceeded every expectation. He was dependable, communicative, and wonderful with my child—helping with school pickups, getting him to activities, and keeping him engaged and happy. What stood out most was the genuine connection he built with my son; he became not just a caregiver but a trusted friend of our family and a steady, positive male role model. My son always looked forward to the time they spent together, and I felt completely confident knowing he was in caring, capable hands. We only stopped working together because our family moved, and I wholeheartedly recommend him to any family looking for a responsible, kind, and trustworthy caregiver.
