Karlina 2 reviews
$30 per hour for 1 child

Hello! My name is Karlina. I’m a warm, patient, dependable, and caring person who truly enjoys working with children and helping families. I’m originally from Costa Rica and am bilingual in English and Spanish. I’ve been married for 28 years and am a proud mother of three wonderful children, ages 13, 18, and 21. I’m currently looking for a part-time nanny or family assistant position where I can use my experience as a mother, my love for children, and my natural ability to keep a household organized and running smoothly. Childcare Experience As a mother of three, I have many years of hands-on experience caring for children of different ages, including babies and infants. I’m comfortable with bottle-feeding, burping, diaper changes, preparing bottles, nap and feeding routines, and providing attentive, loving care throughout the day. I genuinely enjoy spending time with children—reading, playing, helping with homework, going to the park, and keeping them engaged in fun, age-appropriate activities. I’m also comfortable helping with: * School and activity drop-offs and pick-ups * Preparing simple meals and snacks * Children’s laundry and light tidying * Organizing bedrooms, play areas, and belongings * Homework and daily routines * Errands and general family assistance A Little More About Me I’m naturally organized, responsible, and proactive. I enjoy creating a clean, comfortable environment and am happy to help with tidying, laundry, organizing, and other household tasks. I understand that every family and every child is different, so I value clear communication and following the parents’ preferred routines and instructions. My goal is to be someone a family can truly trust and depend on, while providing their children with a safe, positive, patient, and caring environment. References are available upon request.

“I’m very happy to recommend Karlina for any babysitting or nanny position. She is a genuinely caring, kind, and thoughtful person who connects naturally with children. She is experienced, dependable, and highly capable, with a calm presence that puts both children and parents at ease. She is fun and engaging, and would do a great job balancing play, creativity, and structure. Children truly enjoy spending time with her. What really sets her apart is her reliability and good judgment. She takes her responsibilities seriously, is consistently dependable, and creates a safe, positive environment for kids. She brings warmth and professionalism to everything she does. I would confidently recommend her to families looking for a trustworthy, capable, and engaging babysitter. Thank you, -Sandra”

Booked by 2 families in Bonsall, CA

Hi! I'm a mom of two elementary-aged kids with a degree in Human Development, with a focus in child development, and a background in social work. Along with my professional knowledge, I bring the real-life experience of raising neurodivergent children, which has taught me patience, flexibility, and the importance of redirection over discipline. I love creating a positive, playful environment where kids feel safe, encouraged, and free to be themselves, whether that's through outdoor adventures, crafts, or fun at home. I'm reliable, energetic, and able to manage multiple children at once, and I'm also happy to help with light cleaning, errands, and pets to support the whole family. With my flexible schedule and warm, hands-on approach, I'm passionate about helping children grow in confidence while giving parents peace of mind.

“Kelsey is the absolute best! We have used her 4-5 times now and will definitely be using her regularly going forward! She is so patient with our 4 month old and is always very interactive with him! We could not recommend her enough!”

Brianna $16 per hour for 1 child

I am a college student who is majoring in Child and Adolescent Development and minoring in Psychology. I enjoy working with kids, and I am comfortable working with infants and toddlers aged 1 year and older. I volunteered at Children's Paradise, where I worked with infants. I did that from March to April. I have watched pets before, and I have a dog, and I have watched cats before too, so I love animals. I love taking care of kids because they deserve to be in a comfortable environment, and I think kids are great to be around. I am a kind, respectful person, and I care about what I do.
