I currently work in higher education and with preschoolers. My background is in child development and early childhood education for almost 20 years, with a specialization in trauma studies. I am in school, working on my master’s thesis in human development and looking to gain perspective with my time here (with you). I love the littles, babies are my niche. I incorporate a lot of structure and developmentally appropriate design for consistency in care based on family dynamics. I am pro active in holistic wellness *Psa* Infant care and/or special needs will be at higher rate listed. Day of cancellations will require a deposit of half of booked time slot. Please message before booking. I am not on daily to update my calendar as I have full schedule that fluctuates. It may reflect changes due to last bookings and may not reflect my current availability.

“Jaime is amazing! She instantly made my girls super comfortable. It was our first babysitter experience so we were pretty nervous, however Jaime kept us in the loop so we didn't feel anxious and could enjoy our time away. We definitely will have her back! ”

Hello, my name is Crystal. I’m 31 years old and earned my B.A. in Child Development and Family Studies from CSULB in 2018. I recently received my Multiple Subject Teaching Credential and am excited to continue growing in the field of education. I have always had a passion for working with children and began babysitting at 15 years old, caring for my younger sibling and cousins. Throughout high school, I volunteered in after-school programs where I worked with elementary-aged children, helping them complete homework and build strong study skills. After graduating, I worked as a program leader, managing a class of about 20 children. My responsibilities included planning engaging activities, ensuring safety, serving snacks, collaborating with families and staff, and creating a fun, nurturing, and structured environment. I also have experience as an elementary tutor and a full-time preschool teacher, where I built strong relationships with families and provided additional babysitting support when needed. During COVID, I worked as a full-time nanny for multiple families until 2023. Since January 2023, I have been working as a substitute teacher while continuing my education. I would describe myself as nurturing, kind, patient, and dependable. I truly enjoy being part of a child’s growth, helping them learn, supporting their needs, and creating a safe, positive, and fun environment. I am currently available for summer babysitting from June through mid-August and am open to part-time or full-time opportunities during that time. I would love the opportunity to support your family and provide attentive, caring, and enriching care for your children!

“Great interaction with the kids with keeping them occupied, creative and engaged.”
