Hello... I am a mature lady with abundant energy and fun-loving disposition...I am a very experienced babysitter... Mother of six /Grandmother, too! I live in Santee but occasionally spend time in La Jolla or Laguna Niguel at my children’s homes and when I do I apply for work in those areas, as well as, when I am at home in Santee🙂 I loved spending many years helping my grown children by taking care of their little ones💗while they were working! Besides helping them out I experienced a great deal of happiness being with my grandchildren! Here in California I have two beautiful Grand-daughters that I love spending time with when their busy schedules permit! I am on call for babysitting on date night for my kids and the families I babysit for, also! I have movie night on some Fridays with my 10 year old and 13 year old Grand-sons! A little something about me: I'm from Maine, and have resided in some awesome cities, such as, Palm Beach, San Francisco, Los Angeles, where I've had the great pleasure of singing with the Agape choir, performing with talented artists like John Legend, and now currently living in San Diego! I am a published artist, love theater, and have especially loved watching my six kids grow into successful, creative, kind, individuals! I have plenty of available time for babysitting and babysitting for families who need child care is a continuation of doing what I love to do... So far most of the families I have done babysitting for have paid me in cash....which is my preference! Would that work for you? I am often paid by Venmo or Zelle and that is fine, as well🙂 I do have some availability in my schedule and would like to discuss the specifics of what you will be requiring to meet the needs of your family! Sad to say but because of the high cost of gas I’ve had to increase my rate from $18 to $20 for one child & $25 for two or more children, also, I have to require a 4 hour minimum☹️ I look forward to hearing from you! Have a great day! Carol🌷

My name is Shireen. I graduated from UCLA, and I’m currently in nursing school at CSUSM. I work really well with kids, I enjoy playing and taking care of them. I am a responsible and reliable young lady. I have been babysitting/ nannying for 10 years with all ranges of age. I have been used to kids my whole life because I come from a big family. I have 4 siblings, and I used to take care of my little siblings since I was 12 years old. I can help tutor, play with them, and be a good role model. I love being a good influence towards children, and I have a passion for caring about them. I would treat them just like if I were to have my own kid. If you have anymore questions feel free to contact me!

Hi families! 😊 My name is Alyssa, and I’m a 27-year-old kindergarten teacher who recently moved to San Diego. I’ve been babysitting for about 9 years while living in San Francisco, and I’m excited to start building meaningful, trusting connections with families here in SD. I’m a fun, energetic, and caring sitter with experience caring for children of all ages—from newborns to teens. I genuinely love spending time with kids through reading stories, playing games, doing crafts, and creating engaging activities that feel both fun and safe. I’m currently teaching kindergarten, so I’m available for weeknight and weekend babysitting. I have a reliable car and clean driving record if transportation is needed, and I’m CPR certified for both infants and adults. If you’re looking for a warm, dependable sitter who truly enjoys working with children, I’d love to connect. Feel free to message me with any questions—thank you! 💛

Hello! My name is Chloe and I am an enthusiastic childcare professional dedicated to encouraging the development of the whole, healthy child. I am available occasional weekday evenings and weekends for sitting. I have my Bachelor's of Science in Developmental Psychology with a minor in sociology and more than enough Early Childhood Education and Development credits under my belt. In regards to my experience in the early childhood field, I have spent the majority of my time for the past 10 years working with young children of different ages and aptitudes, in both schools and in the home. I started nannying during my undergraduate career and then worked in a private French-American preschool for 2 years prior to temporarily moving to LA. During my 6 months in LA, I worked as a lead infant teacher in an early learning center. Now that I’m back in San Diego, I have been caring for 2 kiddos full-time and working occasional date-nights and weekends (if COVID precautions have been taken). I have experience with children of all ages from newborns to 13 year olds, as well as children with special needs (autism, behavioral problems, visual impairments). I specialize in early childhood, so the majority of the jobs I take are with children under 5 years old. I am very patient and understanding but also a believer in firmness and care/love. My outgoing personality and high level of energy allow me to keep up with even the most rambunctious little ones. My babysitting style is characterized by playing, creativity, exploration, and books/reading, and I do my best to keep TVs/tablets off when I babysit. In my free time I enjoy being outside, hiking, rollerskating, swimming, reading, spending time with my family, and seeing all the children I had cared for. It is my goal to provide enriching, enjoyable, and meaningful experiences for your children while making sure they feel safe and loved. Magda Gerber says it best: “When we help a child to feel secure, feel appreciated, feel that ‘somebody is deeply, truly interested in me’, by the way we just look, the way we just listen, we influence that child’s whole personality, the way that child sees life.” If you have any questions or would like to know more about what I did as a nanny for each family, please let me know; I'd be happy to answer any questions about my previous employment and am more than happy to send a resume and references.

“Kind, fun, brought her own fun activities for the kids, was attentive to their needs, and was thorough in remembering bedtime routines. Appreciate it!!!”
