Booked by 1 family in Spring Valley, CA

My name is Harper, and I am a San Diego State University student studying Musical Theatre with a minor in Business. Alongside my studies, I work in retail, which has strengthened my work ethic, time management, and ability to connect with people. I have over five years of experience working with kids, particularly ages four and up, and was a nanny throughout high school. I love engaging with children, making them smile and laugh, and creating a fun yet safe environment for them to grow. I also have two dogs and a deep love for animals, so I’m more than comfortable caring for pets as well. My passion for caregiving, coupled with my strong sense of responsibility and enthusiasm, makes me a great fit for any family. I am happy to provide references upon request!

Harper has been absolutely great with our 4 year old! She has been punctual, communicative, and attentive!

Booked by 1 family in Spring Valley, CA

Hi! My name is Wenddy 💗 I’m a mom of two (my kids are now older), so I truly understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your children. Most of my childcare experience comes from raising my own kids and helping care for children within my family over the years. I really enjoy creating a calm, safe, and loving environment where kids feel comfortable, supported, and cared for like family. I also have caregiving experience, including caring for my grandmother, who has since passed and is now in heaven 🤍 That time in my life deeply shaped my patience, compassion, and the way I care for others with kindness and respect. At this time, I’m only available for occasional babysitting. When I do care for children, I bring a warm, calm presence and always treat them with genuine care and attention. Families describe me as dependable, patient, and very caring. I take trust seriously and always show up with heart and responsibility. I’m bilingual (English & Spanish), have a Live Scan background check, clean driving record, reliable transportation, and I’m fully vaccinated. I would love the opportunity to support a family who needs occasional, trustworthy care 💗

Enjoyed using Wenddy. I would use her again.
