As a dedicated caregiver and mother of three school-aged children, I am deeply committed to nurturing every child's growth, learning, and happiness. With years of hands-on experience caring for children of all ages, I bring warmth, patience, and creativity to every babysitting role. I go beyond basic supervision-I love engaging kids in both indoor and outdoor play, helping with homework, and creating fun, memorable activities that let them shine. Safety and trust are at the heart of my care; I always strive to create a supportive, secure environment where children feel comfortable and parents have complete peace of mind. I am flexible with scheduling, available for both daytime and evening care, and am happy to provide references from local families I have supported. Helping families achieve balance matters deeply to me, and I aim to support your household so every family member thrives. I would be excited to meet your family and become a trusted part of your support network.

Olga was great!!

Booked by 3 families in Coronado, CA

Hi there! I’m Melody, a former early childhood educator with over 10 years of experience supporting families. I’ve worked as a nanny, mother’s helper, and household manager, caring for children from newborns to school-age. My approach is heart-led, organized, and rooted in creating a calm, fun, and safe environment where kids can thrive. I’m currently a corporate professional in between roles, seeking occasional, one-time, and temporary PT/FT roles while I explore my next long-term career step. Families can count on me for reliability, compassion, and clear communication, whether it’s daily routines, creative play, or bedtime stories. Supporting families has always been at the heart of what I do, and I’m honored to help parents find peace of mind knowing their little ones are cared for with patience and love.

Melody is incredibly sweet, excellent at communication and great with my kid. Melody gave me a date night off to go out, instantly bonded with my kid and made him feel safe and comfortable, and got him to sleep in a hotel room just like it was any other night.

Hi, Im Lyn! I recently moved to North Park. ideally, I'm looking for 1-2 families who would like help on a regular basis. I'm a people person who finds joy in engaging with and caring for people of all ages. I am offering child care, senior care, and household services, including pet care. My background includes babysitting, chauffeuring, non-medical elder care, guided therapeutic movement, and athletic coaching. I also love animals and have lots of experience caring for them as part of the family! I'm experienced with keeping house, cooking, and tackling light admin/errands to lighten the load for parents and caregivers. I have experience with first aid and CPR (I am not currently certified, but would consider recertifying at clients request)

We had a wonderful experience with Lyn. She is consistently punctual and communicative. She took the time to understand and follow our pet's dietary requirements carefully, which gave us great peace of mind. Would gladly recommend her to anyone looking for trustworthy pet care.

Adrina $22 per hour for 1 child

Hello families! My name is Adrina and I am 22 years old. Originally from the Bay Area, I moved here in 2021 for school and currently working towards my business degree (online). My experience started when I was only 12 years old, as I have a younger sister who is now 12yo, as well as 4 younger boy cousins. I was always the trusted babysitter for friends and family 🥰 I am currently working with 3 different families (ages 3 & 5 boys, ages 7 & 9 boys, and 2, 3 & 4 one boy and two girls), but have time on my hands for occasional work. In San Diego I have worked with plenty of families ranging from age 3 months-10yo. I took a break for a little over 2 years as I had a full time job, which I am no longer doing. I am located downtown but willing to drive up to 30 mins as I have a reliable car and clean driving record! I look forward to meeting your families 🤍

Ciel $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Graciela, but you can call me Ciel (SEE-EL). I have been professionally working with kids ages 22mo to 12 years old for about ~2 years. I am currently working as a Behavior Consultant for kids with autism, so I am confident in taking care of children who display intense behaviors. Some of the responsibilities I can provide include driving children (with provided car seat), homework help, cleaning, making meals, community/public outings, and of COURSE engaging kids! I am comfortable and have experience with taking care of cats and dogs. I myself have a beautiful American shorthair cat who is named Pesto. I look forward to hearing from you, and I can’t wait to meet your little one(s)!
