Child Care I have experience working with children of various ages, from toddlers to early teens. I enjoy hands on, engaging activities like arts and crafts, baking, reading time, outdoor play, and helping with homework. I’m patient, energetic, and great at keeping kids entertained while also maintaining structure. I’m comfortable helping with school pick-ups, meal prep, bedtime routines, or light tutoring as needed. Pet Care I’ve worked with small to medium breeds. I’m comfortable with walking, feeding, playtime. Whether your pet needs high-energy outdoor time or just loving companionship, I’m happy to accommodate. Household Services I offer a variety of home assistance such as cleaning, organizing, meal prep, laundry, running errands, and general tidying. I take pride in being detail-oriented and making sure things not only look neat, but feel peaceful and functional. I am adaptable to whatever systems or routines you prefer in your home. If you’re looking for someone dependable, caring, and easy to work with, I’d love to help! Let me know what you need, and I’ll do my best to make your life a little easier. I am certified in CPR
With experience in fire service, caregiving, and fine-dining kitchens, I provide calm, professional, detail-oriented care and exceptional service tailored to each client.
Professional Childcare Provider – Laura Michelle Vazquez Dear families, My name is Laura Michelle Vazquez, and I am a dedicated childcare professional with a strong background in early childhood education and over four years of hands-on experience supporting children of all ages — from newborns and infants to toddlers and teenagers. I hold an Associate’s Degree in Child Development from Southwestern College, earned in Spring 2023, and bring a solid foundation in both developmental theory and practical application. My approach is rooted in providing safe, nurturing, and developmentally appropriate care that supports the whole child — emotionally, socially, and cognitively. As a parent myself, including to a child with ADHD Combined Type, I have developed deep personal insight into neurodiverse behaviors and needs. Professionally, I have had the privilege of working with children diagnosed with ADHD and Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), supporting them with patience, empathy, and tailored strategies that encourage trust, growth, and confidence. These experiences have strengthened my commitment to inclusive care that meets each child where they are. Now that my own children are in school, I am excited to offer my support to other families seeking a dependable, understanding, and knowledgeable caregiver. I am currently available for occasional babysitting, one-time care, date nights and overnight. Credentials & Availability: • CPR • Experience with neurodiverse children (ADHD & Autism) • Background check available upon request • Based in Chula Vista, CA, and willing to commute • Fluent in English and Spanish (optional if applicable) I would be honored to contribute to your child’s care and well-being, and I look forward to the opportunity to support your family with professionalism and heart. Warm regards, Laura Michelle Vazquez
Hello! My name is Cecilia. I have been substitute teaching for the past three years and am an aspiring meteorologist. While I have the summer off I am hoping to babysit in order to save up for graduate school. I love math, music, and outdoor adventures! I have experience with kids of all ages and abilities. I also dog sit.
Hi! I’m Leslie, I understand how important it is for parents to feel their child is truly cared for. I’m naturally patient, and detail-oriented (comes with being a paralegal) and I bring that same energy into childcare. I love creating calm, safe routines, being attentive to emotional needs, and making sure families feel supported. I’m big on communication, I handle unexpected situations with a clear head, and I genuinely enjoy helping little ones feel secure, understood, and loved. If you’re looking for someone dependable, and easy to work with, I’ve got you!

"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!"
