Find nannies in Lakeside, CA

Hi! My name is Vanessa and I’m a caring, patient, and reliable caregiver with experience working with children of all ages. I currently serve as a kids’ ministry leader at my church, where I help support and teach young children in a safe, positive, and structured environment. I’ve also been a regular babysitter for several families over the years, helping with date nights, after-school care, and last-minute needs. Because of this, I’m very comfortable with routines, meals, homework help, crafts, bedtime, and keeping kids entertained without screens. Families describe me as gentle, responsible, and easy for kids to connect with. I’m also great with pets and can help with light cleaning while I’m here. My priority is always to make sure your children feel safe, cared for, and happy while you’re away. I’d love to support your family whenever you need an extra set of hands!

Hi! My name is Hayden, and I'm a creative and emotionally attuned caregiver with a deep love for helping children grow, express themselves, and feel safe being who they are. I have 5 years of experience caring for children of all ages - from toddlers to preteens - and I take an intentional approach that blends art, psychology, and mindful communication. I love helping kids express themselves through creativity, whether that's painting, storytelling, music, outdoor play, or reflective activities that support emotional awareness and self- esteem. My personal background in psychology and communication has changed my outlook and direction in life. I am a passionate autodidact, some of my favorite writers are Carl Yung and Joe Dispenza. It now helps me understand and connect with each child's unique personality and needs. Families and organizations have described me as grounded, dependable, and intuitive - someone who brings both warmth and structure into any environment. In addition to childcare, I'm happy to assist with household support, errands, school drop-off, pick-ups, sport events, homework. I'd love to provide exercises and activities to stimulate personal growth and healing. Understanding who you are, and what you are passionate about is a core structure that builds your foundation of reality in childhood. I take pride in creating an uplifting, balanced environment where children feel seen, safe, and inspired to grow. I'm looking for a family that wants a long-term teammate to assist in their children's growth. In addition to traditional childcare, I have traveled through to volunteer all throughout high school in the lowest income areas of our country to provide daycare for families who cannot afford this luxury. Everyday, my co-leader and I would lead a group of 10-15 children for eight hours through different activities and meals. I was working in the sector that emphasized creativity/art. Each activity was curated with structure, while allowing the children freedom to express themselves creatively. I have spent the last 3 years in the service industry, and I recognize it does not hold the passion and purpose that I feel called to do. It has helped me learn about myself and those around me, as I have had the pleasure of meeting thousands of different people. I recognize that it was lacking the empathy and emotional growth I am looking for. Nannying is the direction I've been guided towards to be aligned with my authentic self and purpose

I provide child care in my own home. I have 5 years of experience caring for children from infants to 13 years old. My home is safe, clean, and welcoming for children.

I am a caring, patient, and dependable nanny with a strong passion for working with babies and toddlers. I began caring for young children at the age of 15, primarily within my family, which gave me early hands-on experience and a strong sense of responsibility. Over the years, I have become confident in providing consistent, nurturing care during the most important early stages of development. I am comfortable with diaper changes, bottle feeding, nap schedules, tummy time, and age-appropriate play. I pay close attention to children’s cues and needs and focus on creating a calm, safe, and loving environment where babies and toddlers feel secure. I understand the importance of routines and always follow parents’ preferences closely. I am patient during fussy moments, gentle during transitions, and attentive at all times. I enjoy reading, singing, floor play, and helping toddlers explore their world safely. My goal is to support each child’s growth while giving parents peace of mind, knowing their child is being cared for with patience, respect, and genuine love.

I am 52 years old and have 24 year old twins, I am a Licensed Occupational Therapy Assistant and I work a very part time job in a out pt pediatric clinic for children birth to 3 years with special needs. I am currently attending Vanguard University to get my teaching credential.
