Ines $18 per hour for 1 child
Hi parents! My name is Ines, and I’ve been caring for children since I was 13, starting as the go-to babysitter in my neighborhood back in Germany. Working with kids has always been a natural fit for me. When I turned 18, I spent six months as an au pair in Canberra, Australia, where I cared for three energetic boys between the ages of 3 and 9. I planned and carried out their weekly routines, handled grocery shopping, cooked meals, and supported the family with whatever they needed. This experience taught me how to stay calm, organized, patient, and flexible in a busy household. I genuinely love spending time with children and recently became an aunt. I’ve cared for my baby niece since she was just a few months old, and it’s been such a joy to be part of her early life. I’m originally from Germany, speak fluent English, and I have a Green Card. My American husband and I live in Vista, where I also work part-time in retail. Because of my work schedule, I’m fully available Mondays and Thursdays from morning to evening. A few extra things about me: -I absolutely love animals and am happy to help with pet care. - I have a valid driver’s license and am a confident, safe driver. - I’m an easygoing, cheerful person who laughs a lot and brings a positive, relaxed energy to every home. - I enjoy meeting new people and know tons of card and board games for all ages. - I’m very outdoorsy and active — nature and sports are a big part of my life. I’d love to support your family and get to know your little ones. Please feel free to reach out with any questions!
Cheryl $20 per hour for 1 child
As a mother of four sons, with two still at home, I understand the patience, love, and dedication it takes to care for children of all ages. Raising my boys has been the most rewarding experience of my life, and I truly enjoy watching children grow, learn, and gain confidence. I am a dependable, caring, and nurturing caregiver who creates a safe, fun, and supportive environment. Whether it's helping with homework, planning engaging activities, driving children to school, playdates, or sporting events, or simply being a positive and reliable presence, I'm happy to support your family's needs. I believe every child deserves encouragement, kindness, and someone who genuinely enjoys spending time with them. I look forward to building a trusting relationship with your family and providing the same level of care I have always given my own children.

Hi! My name is Mia, and I’m currently in school earning my Master of Arts in Teaching. I have experience as a substitute teacher and private nanny, working with children ranging from 4 weeks to 15 years old. I’m CPR, First Aid, and Mandated Reporter certified, and I have a background in Human Development and Family Sciences with a minor in Psychology. I’m patient, caring, organized, and genuinely enjoy creating a fun, safe, and supportive environment for kids. I’m currently looking for a summer nannying or caregiving position part time and would love the chance to connect with your family!
Anika $25 per hour for 1 child
I’m a super auntie who has loved caring for kids since I was a teenager! I raised my two nieces from infancy and I absolutely adore every moment with children. I work comfortably with infants all the way up to teens. For years I ran an after-school playground program with 75–100 kids, where I worked with all kinds of personalities and backgrounds. I’m patient, attentive, and believe love and kindness come first. I love helping children work through their feelings and problems in a gentle way — kids have such amazing perspectives and they teach us so much! I’m also happy to lend a hand with light housework, elderly care, or pets. Whether it’s playing, doing homework, or just being a warm, reliable presence, I bring fun and care to every family. I’d love to meet yours! 💕
