Hi. I am a mom to a college graduate. I enjoy taking care of kids and helping parents. I am the oldest of 4 children. I babysat infants, toddlers, and kids when I was in high school. I was home full-time with my daughter from the day she was born until 1st grade. Then I did some contract work, but was mostly with her after her school days. I love interacting with kids and witnessing them learn and experience all the things in their life. I am young at heart and love kid activities like playing games, arts & crafts, legos, going to the park, blowing bubbles, reading books and many more. I have more free time now. My daughter doesn't need me anymore. :) I am caring, friendly, easy-going, and down to earth. I graduated from SDSU in 1990 with a B.A. in Psychology. The ages I have babysat recently are 12 to 1 years old and 11 months to 7 weeks. I have mostly had 2 kids.

Diane was amazing with my 3 year old. She was warm, and engaging and my son was immediately comfortable with her. I will definitely be considering Diane for future babysitting.

As a dedicated caregiver and mother of three school-aged children, I am deeply committed to nurturing every child's growth, learning, and happiness. With years of hands-on experience caring for children of all ages, I bring warmth, patience, and creativity to every babysitting role. I go beyond basic supervision-I love engaging kids in both indoor and outdoor play, helping with homework, and creating fun, memorable activities that let them shine. Safety and trust are at the heart of my care; I always strive to create a supportive, secure environment where children feel comfortable and parents have complete peace of mind. I am flexible with scheduling, available for both daytime and evening care, and am happy to provide references from local families I have supported. Helping families achieve balance matters deeply to me, and I aim to support your household so every family member thrives. I would be excited to meet your family and become a trusted part of your support network.

Olga was great!!

I'm a dependable and caring animal lover who enjoys spending time with pets of all kinds. I understand that every pet has a unique personality and routine, and I'm committed to making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. Whether it's walks, playtime, feeding, or simply providing companionship, I treat every pet as if they were my own. I'm responsible, attentive to detail, and always strive to give pet owners peace of mind by providing reliable care and regular updates.

I'm passionate about caring for children, with 6 years of experience as a nanny/babysitter. I have a graduate degree in communication and am certified CNA, have a CPR and First Aid. I'm fluent in English, Portuguese and know Spanish. I have a creative and friendly personality, and I'm reserved when it comes to respecting families' privacy and maintaining professionalism. I communicate with parents through written daily reports and verbal communication, and I'm very comfortable enforcing household rules. I love playing outdoor sports, board games, and educational games with children. I can comfortably care for multiple kids at the same time, even with an age gap. But at the moment would love to find a job to care for only one kid. I would love to help your family :)

I highly recommend Lili! She was a regular sitter for my son before he turned one year old, and occasionally watched my two daughters (4 and 6) when they were out of school. She is an active, engaging, no TV, no cell phone, super reliable type of caregiver. A rare find. And my kids still ask for her when we need a sitter!!

Hi there! My name is Sabrina, I’m 19 years old, and I recently moved to San Diego from the Bay Area in March to later go to school. I currently intern at a law firm and work as a restaurant host, and I’m looking to explore new hobbies and opportunities in my free time I love creating a fun, positive, and comfortable environment where children can feel safe, happy, and free to be themselves. I’m happy to help with things like playing games, arts and crafts, preparing simple meals and snacks, bedtime routines, homework help, and keeping children entertained. I understand how important it is for parents to have someone they can trust, so I take being reliable, communicative, and punctual seriously. I also have reliable transportation, which allows me to get to and from jobs dependably and on time. My schedule can vary, but I keep my availability updated and am happy to discuss scheduling in advance. I’d love the opportunity to meet your family and help make your life a little easier!

"We were incredibly grateful that Maya was able to help us out with a last-minute childcare emergency. She matched our 9-year-old's energy with arts & crafts, some quiet reading, and a walk around the neighborhood. We'd have Maya back in a heartbeat!"
