Hi! I’m Thais, 32, originally from Brazil, now a permanent resident in San Diego - CA. I’ve been caring for kids for the past 8 years, starting as a full-time nanny and now babysitting on nights and weekends around my marketing job. I’m right at home with bottle feeds, nap schedules, snack time meltdowns, and all the fun. What I care about most is that your kids are safe, happy, and looked after, not just watched. I keep things playful when they’ve got energy to burn and calm when it’s time to wind down. Bedtime routines, mealtimes, screen limits, whatever your house rules are, I follow them. Being a former full-time nanny taught me to stay steady when things get hectic and to really communicate with parents. You’ll hear from me if anything comes up, and I’ll leave you a quick rundown of how it went. I’m reliable, and I show up on time. I’m comfortable driving and happy to travel to you. I also love pets, so a dog or cat in the mix is a bonus, not a problem. Feel free to reach out with any questions. I’d love to meet your family. My Facebook is:[removed] I’m happy to provide references. Thank you!
“I’m delighted to recommend Thais as a nanny and childcare provider. She has cared for our family for almost four years, starting when our oldest son was just 1 year old, and now helps look after both of our children (currently almost 5 and 3½ years old). Over these years, Thais has proven to be exceptionally reliable and trustworthy — we have never had to worry when the kids are in her care. She is wonderful with children: attentive, patient, and genuinely engaged with them, always noticing their needs before we even have to ask. She’s proactive in anticipating what the kids need day to day, and she consistently keeps their spaces and belongings tidy and organized. Our family trust her completely, and our children adore her. Any family would be lucky to have her as part of their team.”
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!”
Hello, my name is Ava and I am a current freshman studying business at San Diego State. I am a middle child of 6 kids. I have 3 younger siblings and 2 older. I often take care of my younger siblings, some who used to be newborns. I have also been babysitting in my old neighborhood since I was 13 years old. Additionally, I have done volunteer work at orphanages in Peru.
My name is Sheila ! I am originally from San Francisco California, but currently a senior at San Diego State. I am fluent in both English and Spanish. I worked at my school’s child center for both semesters last year. I was placed in an infant classroom where I worked with 10-18 month olds. I have my CPR certification as well. I am willing to do small house chores/ extra home activities but pay is negotiable on that aspect depending on what you’d like me to do.
With over 10 years of hands-on experience caring for children ranging from 6 weeks old to school-aged, I am a dedicated and nurturing babysitter who truly loves working with kids. My background includes working with infants, toddlers, and young children, adapting to each stage of development with patience, warmth, and understanding. Most recently, I’ve had the pleasure of caring for a 2-year-old and a 3-year-old, providing full-day care including school drop-offs and pick-ups, preparing light meals, and planning fun, age-appropriate activities that support learning and development. I take pride in creating a safe, supportive, and engaging environment where children feel secure and families feel confident in the care I provide. Whether it’s tummy time for infants, imaginative play for toddlers, I approach each day with compassion, reliability, and a genuine passion for helping children thrive. I am allergic to cats but happy to work with families with dogs.
“Vivianne is amazing with kids! She connected so well with my daughter. My husband and I work very demanding law enforcement jobs and having Vivianne taking care of our daughter gave us so much peace in our hearts and minds. Vivianne went above and beyond to make our daughter feel comfortable with her. Vivianne is so organized and communicative that my husband and I felt comfortable at work and were able to perform our duties and were worried about our daughter. Vivianne is a very trust worthy person and she is reliable. We deeply recommend Vivianne to take care of your child.”

"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."
