Hey there parents, my name is Ashley. I graduated from San Diego State University with my BA in Speech, Language, and Hearing Sciences. My degree is highly focused on childrens’ language development and because of this, I really enjoy spending time with children. I have two years experience an a Behavioral Therapist for children on the Autism Spectrum and 8 years experience as a nanny for infants and toddlers primarily. CPR and First Aid certified for all ages. I’m very passionate about creating a safe, nurturing, and engaging environment where children can grow, explore, and develop. I have extensive experience managing daily routines such as feedings, naps, developmental play, and age-appropriate activities. If you are seeking a trustworthy, experienced, and loving caregiver look no further. I’ve maintained long-term relationships with many families I’ve worked with. Please don’t hesitate to reach out to see how I can assist your family :) ***Note: I have a 4 hour minimum for all bookings and if a job is at a hotel you are responsible for parking fees. Cancellations with less than 24 hours notice must be paid in full. I budget based on bookings and when a booking is cancelled without prior notice it directly affects my budget. Please be understanding as this is my livelihood.***
“Ashley was amazing with our two boys. She kept me in the loop of how they were doing and got our kids to sleep earlier than usual, and they both slept in the next day! She made me feel like we had family watching our kids so we will definitely be hiring her again. ”
Hi parents! I work as a nanny for a family already but would love to talk about occasional opportunities when I’m available! I have experience with working with kids as a babysitter, nanny, respite worker and behavior therapist working with children anywhere from four months old to eighteen years old. I have around 3 years of experience working with kids with developmental disabilities including nonverbal kids with AAC or PECS devices. I’m very outgoing and love going to farmers markets, a park, Legoland (have a yearly membership since I go with my niece so much) or anywhere really! I also love to be at home sometimes to relax and read, build lego sets or participate in creative hobbies! I love doing puzzles, magnet tiles, building forts and basically anything the kids love to play. I have two large dogs and a cat so I’m experienced with taking care of animals and always willing to learn for any other animal to help take care of them! I’d be happy to help with pick ups/drop offs, taking kids to the park or elsewhere and getting to know your kids hobbies so I can make sure to have fun stuff for us to do and talk about while I babysit. I would be open to discussing how I can help you with daily life while babysitting as well! Please feel free to reach out with occasional opportunities!
“Kiara was incredible with our baby. Very attentive to his needs and made us as parents feel very comfortable. ”
Hi. I am a mom to a college graduate. I enjoy taking care of kids and helping parents. I am the oldest of 4 children. I babysat infants, toddlers, and kids when I was in high school. I was home full-time with my daughter from the day she was born until 1st grade. Then I did some contract work, but was mostly with her after her school days. I love interacting with kids and witnessing them learn and experience all the things in their life. I am young at heart and love kid activities like playing games, arts & crafts, legos, going to the park, blowing bubbles, reading books and many more. I have more free time now. My daughter doesn't need me anymore. :) I am caring, friendly, easy-going, and down to earth. I graduated from SDSU in 1990 with a B.A. in Psychology. The ages I have babysat recently are 12 to 1 years old and 11 months to 7 weeks. I have mostly had 2 kids.
“Diane was amazing with my 3 year old. She was warm, and engaging and my son was immediately comfortable with her. I will definitely be considering Diane for future babysitting.”
Hello! My name is Kylie! I am a mom of 4 and a military wife to a Marine. We live in military housing and have a house with a fully fenced 25x25 yard with grass. Dogs get free roam of the house most of the day since I work from home. We have 2 dogs of our own, Tizzy and Guilia, who are half australian cattle dog and half german shepherd
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🌷
