La Quinta
$25 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 23 families in Anza, CA

I am a retired early childhood teacher with 25+ years of Elementary School teaching. I love children so I immediately try to establish rapport with them no matter what age. I bring books, toys and games that are age appropriate and will keep your child happy and engaged. I have 3 teenage grandsons so I have experience dealing with all ages. Unfortunately, they are in New York so I treasure getting to know new families.

Lisa is fantastic. She arrived early, brought a bunch of fun toys, and immediately had our daughter entertained. We feel lucky to have found someone as great as Lisa.

Fallbrook
$20 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 2 families in Anza, CA

I started babysitting when I was 12 and have continued to throughout my life. I’m a 50 year old mother of two boys, 22 and 20 and we had a dog and multiple cats along the way. I worked at gym daycares when the kids were little as well as traded babysitting with friends with kids. I myself was raised with a younger sister and many animals including a pony, dogs, cats, fish, birds, a bunny, turtles and rats. I spent my summers at our families ranch in Northern California which has horses, cows, dogs, cats, peacocks, turkeys and pheasants. All in all I’ve had the joy of enjoying and taking care of many children and animals through the years and look forward to doing the same with yours.

Courtney was so incredible with our 1.5 and 3.5 year olds. They loved playing with her and she was so helpful feeding them dinner and putting them to bed. We would love to have her again!
