Anna $21 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I am Anna. I am a high school graduate and hoping to start college in the spring. Right now I am coaching soccer with young children aged 2 to 12. I am the middle child of three daughters and have experience helping out with my younger sibling and also babysitting since I was in high school. I grew up with two cats and a large dog so I am very experienced with pets. I love caregiving because it makes me feel like I am doing something rewarding and meaningful. I enjoy being with children and doing sports, arts and music with them.

Hi parents! My name is Priscilla and I am 34 years old, living in Clairemont area. I do have two beautiful babies (2y and 3y old ) I am currently working as an overnight nanny to a 8 weeks old every Monday & Wednesdays. So looking to an occasional jobs or extra 2/3 nights as an overnight nanny. I've been a caregiver for many different families for over 8 years with children ranging newborn to 14 years old. I love to be fun and creative with children, do arts and crafts, sing and play music and also enjoy visiting playgrounds, museums, and libraries. :) I describe myself as honest, trustworthy, hardworking, and achievement driven. I'm a very happy and positive person and would love to find a family that I can create a close bond with. I'm very comfortable driving kids place to place and I love animals. - I do have two car seats in my car. Please contact me with any questions or other concern. Thank you very much for your time and consideration.

“She arrived early, and was sweet and friendly. My 1 yr old daughter took to her right away. Received updates and took great care of her. She filled in last minute when our other sitter canceled. Would use her again.”

Katherine $20 per hour for 1 child

I’ve always been surrounded by kids and genuinely love spending time with them! I have 11 years of experience helping a family with three girls and two boys, 2 years of experience watching up to eight children while their parents played tennis, and 3 years of experience caring for a family with four boys. I also come from a big family with lots of cousins, so being around children has always been a natural part of my life. More recently, I’ve enjoyed helping care for my 7-month-old nephew. Through these experiences, I’ve become comfortable caring for children of different ages, managing multiple kids at once, and creating a fun, safe, and positive environment. Babysitting has always been something I genuinely enjoy!

Molly $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi families! I’m a responsible, dependable, and outgoing person who genuinely enjoys spending time with kids. I have a calm, patient personality and am someone you can count on to be organized, attentive, and adaptable. I love being active, getting outside, and making everyday activities fun! I understand how important it is for parents to feel comfortable and confident leaving their children in someone’s care. I’m also a huge animal lover! I grew up with both dogs and cats, so being around pets has always been a big part of my life. I’m very comfortable caring for furry family members, whether that means walks, feeding, playtime, or just giving them some extra attention and love. I’m happy to help with household tasks and whatever else makes your day a little easier. My goal is to create a safe, fun, and positive environment where both kids and pets feel happy, comfortable, and cared for!

Taylor $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi families! I'm Taylor. I’ve been caring for kids since I was 16, and after 12 years of experience, I’ve developed a true passion for working with children. I have a bachelor's degree in Child Development and am currently in law school, but spending time with kids is still one of my favorite things to do! Over the years, I’ve worked as a nanny and in after-school programs, and I have some wonderful references who can vouch for my skills and dedication. Fun-fact: I’ve worked as a nanny through three trusted nanny agencies nationwide, and I’ve built strong relationships that reflect in my great recommendations. One of my jobs sent me to Finland for a year for newborn care. I'm also CPR certified, have reliable transportation, and always aim to create a fun, safe, and positive environment for the little ones in my care. I'm currently in graduate school and continue to babysit part time and I can wait to add more families! Experience: Newborns: 8 years 1-13: 10 years Looking forward to connecting with you and your family soon!
