Hello! My name is Ivadny, I’m 22, and I’m a responsible & caring caregiver with 3 years of babysitting experience and experience working with over 20+ families and children of various ages. I’m currently a Health Sciences student, which has strengthened my focus on safety, organization, and communication. I enjoy creating a fun, calm, and structured environment where children feel comfortable and supported. I’m happy to help with light housekeeping, meals, bedtime routines, homework, and pets. I speak English and Spanish.
Hi there! I come from a big family, so caring for kids has always come naturally to me. Along with that hands-on experience, I’ve babysat for families and can provide references upon request. I’m a recent USC graduate and currently part of an HR leadership development program here in Carlsbad, which has sharpened my organization, responsibility, and people skills. I love keeping kids engaged, safe, and happy whether that’s helping with homework, playing games, or being a reliable extra set of hands for parents.
I’m a super auntie who has loved caring for kids since I was a teenager! I raised my two nieces from infancy and I absolutely adore every moment with children. I work comfortably with infants all the way up to teens. For years I ran an after-school playground program with 75–100 kids, where I worked with all kinds of personalities and backgrounds. I’m patient, attentive, and believe love and kindness come first. I love helping children work through their feelings and problems in a gentle way — kids have such amazing perspectives and they teach us so much! I’m also happy to lend a hand with light housework, elderly care, or pets. Whether it’s playing, doing homework, or just being a warm, reliable presence, I bring fun and care to every family. I’d love to meet yours! 💕

Bonjour, My name is Sylviane. I am a native of Switzerland and have been living in California now for the last 24 years. I have had the opportunity to be a stay at home mom while homeschooling my two children. My children are my best resume as they are kind, confident and considerate human beings. I am proud of them...as you can see :-) Here is a quick summary of my child care/education experience: French is my mother tongue and I have taught beginning and conversational French to students age 4-17, in small private group settings and in private tutoring. Also, for 4 years, I participated and taught in a neighborhood preschool with a group of 3-6 children. We mainly focused on values like creativity, kindness, cooperation, uniqueness and joy. In the last 3 years I have been a nanny for a family with a 9 month old and a 3 years old. That was the children's ages when I started. I can provide reference info. Feedbacks I have received describe me as a calm, loving, fun and creative person. I enjoy reinforcing children's interests through hands-on activities, reading and outdoor exploration. My approach focuses on nurturing and encouraging their natural curiosity and imagination, offering guidance when needed for problem solving, respectful communication and self regulation of emotions. Now that my children are grown and independent I am available and thrilled to offer my assistance and experience to your family. I look forward to meeting you and your child/ren. Please, feel free to reach out if you have any questions or need more information. Sylviane
“Sylviane was an absolute delight - kind, thoughtful, experienced, organized, responsive, punctual. She went above and beyond to immediately connect with our four-year-old and make her feel at ease. We were visiting San Diego from out of town, and Sylviane brought a bag full of books and crafts that they could play with. As a mom who was anxious about our daughter staying with someone new in a new city, Sylviane put us completely at ease. I cannot recommend her highly enough - I only wish she lived in Dallas!”
