Hi! I’m Leslie, I understand how important it is for parents to feel their child is truly cared for. I’m naturally patient, and detail-oriented (comes with being a paralegal) and I bring that same energy into childcare. I love creating calm, safe routines, being attentive to emotional needs, and making sure families feel supported. I’m big on communication, I handle unexpected situations with a clear head, and I genuinely enjoy helping little ones feel secure, understood, and loved. If you’re looking for someone dependable, and easy to work with, I’ve got you!
“Very good with small children, highly recommend her!”
Hi! My name is Frida, and I have over five years of experience working with children in both preschool teacher and teaching assistant roles. I currently work as a preschool lead teacher, where I create a safe, nurturing, and engaging environment for young children while supporting their learning, daily routines, and emotional development. I have a lot of experience with infants and toddlers (4 months all the way to 24 months) but have also worked with kids of all ages as well! I’m bilingual in English and Spanish, highly organized, and believe in maintaining open communication with families. Whether it’s playing, reading, helping with routines, or providing a caring and positive environment, I always strive to make children feel safe, supported, and happy. I would love the opportunity to care for your family and provide dependable, compassionate childcare you can trust
Hi! My name is Tiffany, and I'm currently a senior at the University of San Diego. I am offering child care, tutoring, and pet care. I love working with children and have experience helping in kindergarten and first-grade classrooms, where I've assisted with educational activities, crafts, games, and everyday classroom routines. Through these experiences, I’ve learned how important it is to be patient, responsible, attentive, and adaptable to each child’s needs. I enjoy spending time outdoors, doing arts and crafts, playing games, reading stories, and helping with homework. I love finding activities that kids enjoy while making sure they feel comfortable and cared for. Whether your child needs someone to play with, help with schoolwork, or simply be a dependable caregiver, I’m happy to help! I’m also comfortable with dogs and can help with pet care. I have a Chihuahua mix of my own who I’ve grown up with. I am allergic to cats, so unfortunately I’m unable to provide care in homes with cats. I look forward to meeting your family!
I began babysitting in high school for a 10 month old and a 6 year old which laid a strong foundation for childcare. In college, I babysat for several school aged children and most recently worked as a chauffeur for two middle school boys, handling school drop-off and pick-up. I also help care for my nephew & younger cousins who are 6-9 years old. I have over 10 years of experience house sitting and dog sitting, which I currently do most often. Additionally, I assist an elderly woman with dementia by transporting her from her memory care home to medical appointments. I am a full time medical student at Bastyr University and am reliable, communicative, trustworthy, and personable. I love working with kids and enjoy supporting families while building community!
Hi families! I'm Taylor. I’ve been caring for kids since I was 16, and after 12 years of experience, I’ve developed a true passion for working with children. I have a bachelor's degree in Child Development and am currently in law school, but spending time with kids is still one of my favorite things to do! Over the years, I’ve worked as a nanny and in after-school programs, and I have some wonderful references who can vouch for my skills and dedication. Fun-fact: I’ve worked as a nanny through three trusted nanny agencies nationwide, and I’ve built strong relationships that reflect in my great recommendations. One of my jobs sent me to Finland for a year for newborn care. I'm also CPR certified, have reliable transportation, and always aim to create a fun, safe, and positive environment for the little ones in my care. I'm currently in graduate school and continue to babysit part time and I can wait to add more families! Experience: Newborns: 8 years 1-13: 10 years Looking forward to connecting with you and your family soon!

"Caitlin was awesome and jumped right in to chaperone four girls (10, 9, 8 and 6) at a family wedding (they were bridesmaids) and she was very helpful with the event as well as taking them home and putting them to bed."
Lila P., parent

"McKenna was great with our 3 year old son! She came prepared with a box of fun activities and handled playing, dinner, and bedtime seamlessly... and it was all at our hotel while we were in town for a wedding. Thank you McKenna!"
