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 💛

Booked by 9 families in Coronado, CA

hello! My name is Taylor. I am 25 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!

Hello, my full name is Fe Kara but most people call me ‘Kara’. I am interested in applying for your babysitting position. I have eight years experience working as a babysitter. The children's ages were from infant to 6th grade. I value the trust that families have shown me, and make sure I reciprocate the trust back with the families I meet. I have done overnight and weekend care. I have raised two daughters who are adults now. My family has a dog and I enjoy having pets in the house. I am a non smoker. I have a clean driving record and drive a reliable car. Prior to childcare, I worked as a teacher’s assistant for the Chula Vista Elementary school District. I have 16 years experience working in the classroom. I can help with homework, tutoring and cooking. I take pride in being reliable and dependable. I look forward to connecting with you & your family, and in assisting you with your childcare needs.

Booked by 5 families in Coronado, CA

I am a caring and reliable individual looking to help out families when I am available. My primary experience is with infants and toddlers but, I have babysat/nannied for ages 2 mos-16 yrs. I graduated from the University of San Diego with a BA in Behavioral Neuroscience and then spent most of 2022 traveling abroad. I love animals and enjoy going for walks, spending time at the beach, traveling, and caring for children! :)

We’ve hired Brennan twice now to watch our 3.5 year old and our 1.5 year old, and she’s been kind, dependable, and professional! She jumps right in as soon as she arrives, maintains routines, and asks all the right questions! Our 1.5 year old has separation anxiety, but she felt comfortable in Brennan’s very capable hands! Highly recommend!
