Meet college nannies and sitters from University of Hawaii at Manoa

Hello! I'm a 23-year-old with seven years of babysitting experience located in San Diego, CA. I enjoy reading, going to the beach, and film photography. I prioritize bonding with kids through quality time, reading, crafts, and exciting adventures.

Hello! I am a fun, responsible, patient, dependable college student who loves children and pets. I have about 7 years of experience looking after children of all ages, from infants to teens. I gained a lot of my experience sitting for family and family friends, but also from my previous job teaching kids as a Polynesian Dance Instructor and as a Teacher's Assistant for ages 2-18. I have also worked as an academic tutor as well. I also have my Basic Life Support (BLS) certification, meaning I am also CPR certified for infants, children and adults. I am a great multitasker and a quick learner. I can help with a multitude of things like arts and crafts, homework, carpooling, games, swimming supervision, going on walks, running errands, organization, etc. As a sitter you can trust me to provide updates with pictures or videos of what we are up to and/or phone calls and Facetimes.

Aloha! I am a current student at the University of Hawaii at Manoa and majoring in Elementary Education. As my mom is a long time elementary educator, I have always been surrounded by teachers and childcare. I assisted my mother and other teachers in their classrooms since I can remember and was also a after-school A+ leader during high school. Working with kids is my passion and I truly believe that allowing children to learn and grow in safe environments is extremely important. I am fun loving but also set clear boundaries with the kids I work with to ensure an enjoyable, but safe, time.

While I am new to the caregiving scene, I am apart of a huge family, and I am the second eldest so taking caring for people is something I am familiar with. My family owns an assisted living facility so I am familiar with what is expected of a caregiver. As far as personality traits go, I consider myself to be an empathetic person. Understanding the emotions of others is very important in caregiving as it allows me to truly hear and understand the individual I am caring for. I also would say I am a great multitasker and problem solver. I also like to have a positive and outgoing mindset which helps my communication skills and overall disposition in life.

My name is Peyton I am originally from Pleasanton, California. I moved to Oahu to attend the University of Hawaii at Manoa, I am a Freshman. My major is social work. I started babysitting when I was 12 years old, and turned it into a successful form of income. For the last two years before coming here (16-18 years old), I worked 15-20+ hours per week, balancing with school and friends. I love kids, childcare is my passion. I have experience with newborns and up!

Hello! My name is Josie :) I live in the beautiful Lake Tahoe and working with children is my passion! My journey began with positive babysitting experiences and grew into a desire to make a real difference in children's lives. With three years of experience, I offer attentive care for one child at a time. I am patient, creative, and approachable, so I easily connect with children. I communicate with parents using their preferred method, whether that's a quick chat at pickup or regular updates via text. I'm comfortable enforcing household rules while encouraging fun through outdoor games, board games, and educational activities. I am currently in college studying elementary education with big dreams of working with kids and becoming a teacher one day! First Aid Training, CPR Training, and Early Child Development Coursework. I'm also happy to help with cooking, carpooling, light housekeeping, travel, and swimming supervision. I am willing to use my skills to provide a safe, enriching environment for your child.
