I’d love to help out your family as an after-school nanny or your go-to date night babysitter! I've been babysitting for as long as I can remember and have all younger cousins so am used to being around little kids. I enjoy being around kids and doing fun activities with them. I was also a lifeguard and taught swim lessons from age 14-22. Feel free to reach out if you think it’d be a good fit!

Maritza $20 per hour for 1 child

Hello! My name is Mari. I’m a 65-year-old retired and widowed teacher living in a peaceful, gated community in Chula Vista (91910). I’m CPR certified and have a lifelong love for children, along with a passion for arts and crafts. I’ve raised four children, including one with significant disabilities who is now a thriving adult. Through that journey, I’ve gained not only deep parenting experience but also a great deal of patience, adaptability, and compassion—qualities I bring into my child care. I’m currently offering full-time child care for one child under the age of 5. Your child will be cared for in a safe, calm, and structured home environment where they’ll receive personalized attention, healthy meals, and fun, age-appropriate learning activities. I’m available Monday through Friday and am happy to work with your work schedule to provide consistency and peace of mind. While I don’t offer transportation, I’m committed to following your routines and any special preferences you have for your child’s care and development. The monthly rate is $950, which includes full-day care, meals, and learning enrichment. If you’re looking for a safe, experienced, and reliable caregiver, I would love to connect with you. Warmly, Mari 📍 Chula Vista, CA 91910

Ma. Chantal $35 per hour for 1 child

Hello! I am a professional educator currently working within the San Diego Unified School District as a TK teacher at a Mandarin immersion school. I have been in the education sector since 2007. I have a Master of Science degree in Education with a Concentration in Literacy and Reading. I am a single parent to a high schooler and a shih tzu. My Professional Background: Teaching experience: I started out my career as an educator as a Child Development Center Assistant then took on the role of an Independence Facilitator. I worked my way up to becoming a teacher while taking Child Development courses, and completing my master's degree as well as a Graduate Certificate in Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages. Specialized experience: I have had the privilege to work as a behavioral therapist (trained in ABA) for five years for private non-profit organizations. Foster care: I proudly served as a foster parent to children with special needs for eight years. My caregiving philosophy: I love being a teacher! It is my absolute pleasure watching young children grow, learn, and meet their developmental milestones. Inside the home, I bring the same organization, loving structure, and accountability that I use in my classroom. For example, I teach my 3-5 year old students how to be responsible by guiding them through routines such as cleaning up after themselves. I ensure every child receives equal and individualized attention tailored to their own unique personality. I love to read, cook, and bake. I enjoy talking with children about random things under the sun. It is my greatest joy to learn from them just as much as they learn from me. I am seeking a rewarding supplemental role and be productive during school breaks and in the afternoons or evenings when I have down time. I am comfortable working in homes with friendly dogs and cats. If you believe my educational background and experience align with your family's needs, I would love to connect!
