Ines $18 per hour for 1 child

Hi parents! My name is Ines, and I’ve been caring for children since I was 13, starting as the go-to babysitter in my neighborhood back in Germany. Working with kids has always been a natural fit for me. When I turned 18, I spent six months as an au pair in Canberra, Australia, where I cared for three energetic boys between the ages of 3 and 9. I planned and carried out their weekly routines, handled grocery shopping, cooked meals, and supported the family with whatever they needed. This experience taught me how to stay calm, organized, patient, and flexible in a busy household. I genuinely love spending time with children and recently became an aunt. I’ve cared for my baby niece since she was just a few months old, and it’s been such a joy to be part of her early life. I’m originally from Germany, speak fluent English, and I have a Green Card. My American husband and I live in Vista, where I also work part-time in retail. Because of my work schedule, I’m fully available Mondays and Thursdays from morning to evening. A few extra things about me: -I absolutely love animals and am happy to help with pet care. - I have a valid driver’s license and am a confident, safe driver. - I’m an easygoing, cheerful person who laughs a lot and brings a positive, relaxed energy to every home. - I enjoy meeting new people and know tons of card and board games for all ages. - I’m very outdoorsy and active — nature and sports are a big part of my life. I’d love to support your family and get to know your little ones. Please feel free to reach out with any questions!

Mariah $30 per hour for 1 child

I began babysitting in high school for a 10 month old and a 6 year old which laid a strong foundation for childcare. In college, I babysat for several school aged children and most recently worked as a chauffeur for two middle school boys, handling school drop-off and pick-up. I also help care for my nephew & younger cousins who are 6-9 years old. I have over 10 years of experience house sitting and dog sitting, which I currently do most often. Additionally, I assist an elderly woman with dementia by transporting her from her memory care home to medical appointments. I am a full time medical student at Bastyr University and am reliable, communicative, trustworthy, and personable. I love working with kids and enjoy supporting families while building community!

$25 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Encinitas, CA

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.
