Hi! My name is Olivia and I am currently a full-time graduate student at California State University, Monterey Bay, studying Speech-Language Pathology with the goal of being a pediatric Speech-Language Pathologist for children with special needs. I am CPR-BLS certified and can provide you with my certificate! I have worked with children ranging from infants to teenagers for almost a decade! In the past five years, I have worked as a lead teacher for after-school group care at elementary schools throughout San Luis Obispo, and most recently as an assistant teacher at a special-needs preschool with children ages 2-5. Additionally, I have experience and a deep passion towards caring for children with special needs, including but not limited to the autism spectrum, Down syndrome, and other behavioral needs, as well as familiarity with children using augmentative and alternative communication devices (AAC). I strongly believe that every child deserves nothing less than top notch care and advocacy for their unique needs. I’m also a huge supporter of creativity and the arts! I received my bachelor’s degree in 2024 from California Polytechnic State University, San Luis Obispo in Studio Arts (painting and drawing), and have taught various art camps and classes for kids ages 3-14 including painting, ceramics, papier-mâché, and more. I’m a pet lover and have two dogs of my own! I’m happy to help with feeding, walking, playing, or just keeping them company. I understand that your children are your greatest gift, and thank you so much for trusting me with that care. I look forward to meeting you!
I am a college student majoring in Elementary Education. I have three years experience babysitting children of all ages, and caregiving for special needs children and teenagers, and medical assistance for elderly patients. I am patient, attentive, and nurturing. Having two siblings with autism, I am passionate about helping people and supporting their individual needs.

Hi! My name is Nicole and I am a current Speech-Language Pathology Masters student at CSUMB. I graduated with my BS in Child Development from Cal Poly, San Luis Obispo in June of 2025 and have 10 years of nannying/babysitting experience. I am passionate about individualized care and have a thorough knowledge of social, emotional, and physical needs across development. I am looking for part time and occasional care positions and would love to connect if I seem like a good fit for your family!
My name is Caroline, and I bring many years of childcare experience working with children from 3 months to 14 years of age. I am passionate about creating a safe, nurturing, and supportive environment while helping families add ease and balance to their daily lives. In addition to my childcare background, I am a locally registered nurse, which allows me to provide an extra level of care, confidence, and attentiveness to children’s health and wellbeing. I love supporting children’s growth through play, learning, and meaningful connection. Outside of caregiving, I enjoy exploring all the amazing spots around the Peninsula, embracing nature, and encouraging curiosity and adventure in everyday moments.
Hi! I’m Ella and I’ll be a sophomore at Biola University. I love babysitting and I’ve also volunteered at lots of kids camps of many ages. My aspiration is to be a teacher so I’d love the opportunity to help with schoolwork! I’m willing to run errands and drive your kids anywhere, I’ve had my license for over three years. I’m more than happy to do any chores and take care of pets as well!

"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!"
