Booked by 10 families in Coronado, CA

Hi I'm Meijia! I recently moved to San Diego from Denver. I am looking to find some great families to help out since I had to say goodbye to the ones in Denver! I love spending time with young kids and being around their fun-loving energy. I enjoy being outside, doing crafts, and playing games!! I have babysat for various families over the years. In addition to babysitting when I can, I have also taught swim lessons for kids ages 3-12, worked at a park district summer camp for kids ages 4-13, and volunteered at a camp for children with special needs. I have also nannied daily for a family with two young girls, so I can get creative with staying busy and active!

Meijia was a wonderful sitter! She was on time, played games with our kids and her communication was great. We will book her again.

Hello! My name is Chloe and I am an enthusiastic childcare professional dedicated to encouraging the development of the whole, healthy child. I am available occasional weekday evenings and weekends for sitting. I have my Bachelor's of Science in Developmental Psychology with a minor in sociology and more than enough Early Childhood Education and Development credits under my belt. In regards to my experience in the early childhood field, I have spent the majority of my time for the past 10 years working with young children of different ages and aptitudes, in both schools and in the home. I started nannying during my undergraduate career and then worked in a private French-American preschool for 2 years prior to temporarily moving to LA. During my 6 months in LA, I worked as a lead infant teacher in an early learning center. Now that I’m back in San Diego, I have been caring for 2 kiddos full-time and working occasional date-nights and weekends (if COVID precautions have been taken). I have experience with children of all ages from newborns to 13 year olds, as well as children with special needs (autism, behavioral problems, visual impairments). I specialize in early childhood, so the majority of the jobs I take are with children under 5 years old. I am very patient and understanding but also a believer in firmness and care/love. My outgoing personality and high level of energy allow me to keep up with even the most rambunctious little ones. My babysitting style is characterized by playing, creativity, exploration, and books/reading, and I do my best to keep TVs/tablets off when I babysit. In my free time I enjoy being outside, hiking, rollerskating, swimming, reading, spending time with my family, and seeing all the children I had cared for. It is my goal to provide enriching, enjoyable, and meaningful experiences for your children while making sure they feel safe and loved. Magda Gerber says it best: “When we help a child to feel secure, feel appreciated, feel that ‘somebody is deeply, truly interested in me’, by the way we just look, the way we just listen, we influence that child’s whole personality, the way that child sees life.” If you have any questions or would like to know more about what I did as a nanny for each family, please let me know; I'd be happy to answer any questions about my previous employment and am more than happy to send a resume and references.

Kind, fun, brought her own fun activities for the kids, was attentive to their needs, and was thorough in remembering bedtime routines. Appreciate it!!!

Booked by 9 families in Coronado, CA

hello! My name is Taylor. I am 26 years old and have over 10+ years experience in babysitting, nannying and day care work with children ranging from infants to middle schoolers. I love being able to hang out with the kids & help them in any way possible! I currently work as a behavior technician with children in schools! As a behavior technician I implement ABA strategies to help children! I’m good at engaging children through multiple activities in order to meet their educational & physical needs. I am CPR certified and first aid certified! I am also fully vaccinated! I am interested in a occasional nannying position. I am located in San Diego! I am able to start ASAP!!

Taylor is the best. 2 minutes after meeting her I felt so comfortable leaving my 3 month old with her. My daughter had a great time playing with Taylor every day. Taylor really helped us out over a period of 2 weeks where we needed childcare. I only wish we could use her full time. We will definitely be asking Taylor to babysit again!

Hi! I’m Sydney :) the kind of sitter kids adore and parents trust. I’ve babysat for over 50 families and nannied for 5, from snuggly newborns to too-cool teens (and everything in between). Whether your child is shy, energetic, sensitive, or strong-willed…I meet them where they’re at and we always click. I’m big on fun, but even bigger on safety. I know how to soothe a baby, handle meltdowns like a pro, and keep older kids engaged (yes, even without screens!). I also have experience with special needs, including autism. I show up on time, I communicate clearly, and I’ve been asked back by almost every family I’ve worked with. Most even skip the app and text me directly now! Looking forward to meeting your family and bringing some extra joy (and calm!) to your day. — Sydney 💛
