My name is Shireen. I graduated from UCLA, and I’m currently in nursing school at CSUSM. I work really well with kids, I enjoy playing and taking care of them. I am a responsible and reliable young lady. I have been babysitting/ nannying for 9 years with all ranges of age. I have been used to kids my whole life because I come from a big family. I have 4 siblings, and I used to take care of my little siblings since I was 12 years old. I can help tutor, play with them, and be a good role model. I love being a good influence towards children, and I have a passion for caring about them. I would treat them just like if I were to have my own kid. If you have anymore questions feel free to contact me!

Shireen was so great with our daughters on our date night and we really appreciate how much time she spent playing and doing crafts with them! They can't wait to see her again!

Hi families!! I'm a 20-year-old third-year nursing student at Point Loma Nazarene University. I'm BLS CPR certified and have over 200 hours of clinical experience through my nursing program. I bring 4+ years of paid babysitting experience, currently work as a director at a children's summer day camp, and work as a daycare teacher during the school year. I'm confident caring for kids of all ages, happy to help with household needs, and great with pets, too. I have a clean driving record, reliable transportation, and a clear background check. I'd love to support your family!

We loved working with Sam! Perfect balance of attentiveness and care for our 10 month old. Will certainly reach out to her for more babysitting opportunities if she’s available.

Hello I'm Sabrina! I'm 26 and been a nanny/babysitter for 5 years. I have experience with children newborn-12 years. I worked in a preschool for a few months pre-Covid. I worked in the 2 year old “growing together” (similar to a mommy and me) class and 5 year old class. I also filled in in other classes with other age groups. Feel free to reach out with any questions! Thank you for your time and consideration, I look forward to hearing from you.

Hi! My name is Mariagracia, but I go by MG. I’m fluent in both English and Spanish and currently majoring in Environmental Studies at San Francisco State University. I’ve always loved caring for kids—whether they were cousins, family friends, or neighbors. I’ve worked with children of all ages, from 2 months to 12 years old, and I’m comfortable caring for up to three kids at a time. I’m CPR, AED, and First Aid certified. Safety is always my top priority when working with kids. I can help with homework, school pick-ups, meal/snack prep, daily walks, playdates, swimming, and keeping kids engaged and entertained. I’m also happy to help with light housekeeping and tidying up play areas. On top of that, I’ve house sat for multiple families over the years and have experience caring for both dogs and cats—so if you have pets, that’s a big plus for me! I bring a calm, caring, and responsible energy to every family I work with and always aim to create a safe and fun environment for kids to thrive in.

So thoughtful and attentive to detail. Our 4 year old loved her play and walk with MG!
