Find nannies in Encinitas, CA

Hi, I’m Betty. I bring a calm, warm, and dependable presence into the home and truly enjoy supporting children as they grow, learn, and feel secure. I believe in creating a loving environment where children feel safe and happy, while also maintaining gentle structure and consistency throughout the day. I hold three associate degrees in Child Development, Behavioral Science, and Communication, which give me a strong foundation in understanding how children develop and thrive. Along with my education, I have many years of hands-on experience caring for infants, toddlers, and preschool-aged children, guiding them through important milestones with patience and encouragement. I have extensive experience in infant care, including feeding, diapering, and establishing healthy sleep routines. With the Austin family, I provided consistent, attentive care and helped create a peaceful, structured environment. Her parents often shared how much they appreciated my reliability, attentiveness, and the sense of trust and comfort I brought into their home. In addition to my professional experience, I teach religious education for preschool-aged children, which reflects my faith-centered values and my commitment to guiding children with kindness, respect, and purpose. I truly see each child as a gift and feel honored to support families by providing dependable, heartfelt care they can trust.

I’ve nannied for 8 years and feel comfortable with all ages of infants to teens. I’m a warm, fun, caring and responsible babysitter who likes to surf, hike, cook and travel in her free time! I like to taking kids to the park, reading, drawing and age development activities with them! I cherish my time with kids and the families I nanny for. I’m happy to provide references and answer any further questions😊

Hello! I am an aspiring elementary teacher, and am currently substitute teaching Mondays- Fridays. I am primarily looking for caregiving jobs that coincide with typical school break schedules (i.e full time gig in the summer, winter break, spring break, etc). I love kids, and am great with pets as well. I also enjoy cooking as my main passion/ hobby outside of education, so I am more than capable of helping with meals/ meal prep. Please reach out if my availability/ skill set aligns with your family’s needs!

Hello! My name is Cris :). I have been a professional personal child care provider for more than 10 years! I have experience with all ages. Being a child care provider allowed me to obtain experience in organizing children’s daily schedules, which included meals, school, and recreational activities. I also enjoy doing fun art creative projects with the kids. I love to inspire and engage children and youth into the art world and to help them gain a boost of confidence through the creation of art. As a child it is important to develop senses such as self gratitude and self love. I witnessed and absorbed how art is a way that can heal and help a child who struggles to learn academically or who faces emotional and mental challenges. It allows a child to have expression, create coping skills, and strengthen their sense of self. I am certified in CPR. I’m also a responsible, patient, and trustworthy person and I always prioritize the well-being and happiness of the children in my care. I’m also a animal lover and don’t mind being around any fur babies if you have any. I am looking forward to hearing from you and I wish you the best of luck with your search! :)

Hello families, thank you for taking the time to read this! My name is Valerie and I'm a proud mom to my 21 yr old son, my 18 yr old son, and my 15 yr old daughter. With more than two decades raising my three children in Cardiff & Encinitas and managing our busy household of five (seven, counting our pups!), I'm deeply grateful to be able to continue to devote myself to the care and well-being of children and their families. I loved that our home was often the place where my children and their friends chose to play, hangout, or work on school projects together. I'm equally happy and comfortable getting the chance to spend time rocking and soothing your newborn at 2am, sitting on the floor next to your children playing their favorite games, helping with their homework, teaching them how to bake or how to make homemade play-dough, as I am taking them to the beach, to the park, having an impromptu dance party, or being able to drive a carload of children to and from school and their activities, and even hosting your child's birthday party along with 20 of their guests. My priority is always to make sure your children are and feel safe and supported. Even in stressful situations, I am calm and patient, meeting each child where they are in that moment. I am dependable, emotionally mature, and have a high level of energy and the ability to adapt easily to changes. I value clear and open communication. In addition to my years caring for my own children, I bring with me over 40 yrs of experience caring for other families' children, beginning in my early teens babysitting for families in University City. While earning my BA in Psychology at SDSU, I worked for a busy family daycare and as a part-time nanny. I have a social work background working with young adults with developmental disabilities and I have extensive experience supporting (and raising) neurodiverse children. I also volunteered weekly for many years in each of my children's classrooms, from preschool through 6th grade, gaining classroom experience supporting both students and teachers. I understand the trust it takes to allow someone else to care for your child and the importance of finding the right match to fit your family. I look forward to having the opportunity to meet you and your family and finding out how I can best support you!
