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.

Paige $20 per hour for 1 child

I have 3 years of babysitting experience and have always loved creating a fun, safe, and supportive environment for kids. Most recently, I've worked at The Little Gym for over a year and a half, where I've helped children ages 1-12 build confidence, learn new skills, and have fun through movement and play. In high school, I also spent 2 years in Crossage P.E., where I traveled to a local elementary school to teach P.E. to 1st and 2nd graders. As a first-year college student, I bring a lot of energy, patience, and responsibility to care giving. I'm very protective, dependable, and genuinely enjoy connecting with children of all ages. Whether it's helping with homework, playing games, keeping routines on track, or simply being a positive role model, I love being someone kids feel safe and excited to be around. In addition to childcare, I'm also very comfortable caring for animals. I've grown up around fish, large and small dogs, cats, reptiles, and even insects, so I'm confident working with a wide variety of pets. During my previous babysitting jobs, I regularly helped with household chores and cleaning, and I also prepared meals for the families I worked with. I'm always willing to help around the house however I can. I also have my own car and a valid driver's license, which allows me to commute reliably and provide transportation if needed.

Ines $18 per hour for 1 child

Hi parents! My name is Ines, and I’ve been caring for children since I was 13, starting as the go-to babysitter in my neighborhood back in Germany. Working with kids has always been a natural fit for me. When I turned 18, I spent six months as an au pair in Canberra, Australia, where I cared for three energetic boys between the ages of 3 and 9. I planned and carried out their weekly routines, handled grocery shopping, cooked meals, and supported the family with whatever they needed. This experience taught me how to stay calm, organized, patient, and flexible in a busy household. I genuinely love spending time with children and recently became an aunt. I’ve cared for my baby niece since she was just a few months old, and it’s been such a joy to be part of her early life. I’m originally from Germany, speak fluent English, and I have a Green Card. My American husband and I live in Vista, where I also work part-time in retail. Because of my work schedule, I’m fully available Mondays and Thursdays from morning to evening. A few extra things about me: -I absolutely love animals and am happy to help with pet care. - I have a valid driver’s license and am a confident, safe driver. - I’m an easygoing, cheerful person who laughs a lot and brings a positive, relaxed energy to every home. - I enjoy meeting new people and know tons of card and board games for all ages. - I’m very outdoorsy and active — nature and sports are a big part of my life. I’d love to support your family and get to know your little ones. Please feel free to reach out with any questions!
