HI there, For my childcare experience, I was lead preschool teacher at the Montecito YMCA in 2021 for that year. My classroom had around 10-13 children ages 3-4 year olds, and in the afternoon I helped manage the entire school around 34 children :) I had been assisted teacher there in 2018 for about 6 months, before moving onto marketing. Covid layoffs, and then went back to teaching in 2021. I continue to babysit occasionally for esteemed families in Santa Barbara now. I have been a member of Urbansitter since I was going to school at the University of San Francisco and worked for many families there. For the last four years 2[removed], I was working with a Forbes Travel Guide and Virtuoso agency in the marketing dept. My position combined the technical and creative skills of marketing and design with front-of-house representation at trade shows and other industry events. I managed complex b2b and b2c accounts for top clients like Saks Fifth Avenue, Regent Seven Sea Cruises, Carnival Corp & many more. My writing and graphic design has been published in Santa Barbara Magazine, Montecito Journal and beyond. My success thus far stems from my natural ability for language and connection. I also specialize in marketing for mission driven companies and I am passionate about giving back to the community to which I was born. I serve on the Board of Directors for Friendship Center in Montecito, California - an adult day service, the only privately funded model like it in the country! My work with them includes elevating their messaging, branding, keynote speaking, curating luxury travel auction items, and networking at chamber of commerce events and beyond.

Shianne was prompt and the kids enjoyed having her!

I’m a happy, fun-loving, detail oriented mom of 3 teenagers. I own a children’s resale boutique in town and one of the things I like best about it is interacting with the kids and their families! I work in my shop only part time and now that my kids are older I’ve found I have extra time and love to give to families who need a little extra help or a date night or just a break! I love animals and so pets in the home are a bonus for me. I’m also very happy to help with meal prep or tidying up if I’m at your home. I love the park and the beach and am always willing to take kids for walks or on outings or even help with homework. I love board games and drawing or coloring and playing dolls or building legos or any imagination games kids enjoy. I’m fit so I can keep up with them on bikes or scooters or racing around outside! I truly enjoy being silly with kids of all ages and enjoy having fun and engaging with them at their level. Newborns to teens… I love all the stages. I was a full time nanny before and during my tenure at UCSB and started babysitting as soon as I could as a young girl. I think it’s because I have a lot of love to give and my family of origin is very small so I have enjoyed being part of the families that I work with. After UCSB I worked in both educational and residential facilities with severely emotionally disturbed teenagers and learned so much about behavior management and caring for children who need extra support. That was truly an educational experience for me and has positively impacted my relationships with children and as a parent myself. What else? I’m punctual, thoughtful, I have a strong work ethic and I do what I commit to doing. I have a positive outlook on life and that shows in all I do! Let me know if you think I could be of help to you and your family ❤️☺️

Elizabed $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Liz, and I have over three years of experience caring for children from infants to 8 years old. I've worked with multiple families, including children with autism, and I truly enjoy creating a safe, fun, and supportive environment where every child feels comfortable and cared for. I'm patient, dependable, and love keeping kids engaged through crafts, outdoor play, reading, educational activities, and imaginative games. I'm also happy to help with meal preparation, light housekeeping, homework, and maintaining daily routines. I speak both English and Spanish, which allows me to communicate with a variety of families. I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your children, and I always strive to provide reliable, compassionate care while building positive relationships with both parents and kids. I'd love the opportunity to support your family and help your little ones learn, grow, and have fun!
