Sandra has been watching our baby regularly for a few months now, and we love her professionalism and transparency. She always confirms with us every time and communicates often if her schedule ever shifts or she is running behind. Sandra is up front with her expectations as a caregiver and will provide guidance as an experienced childcare professional. I would recommend her to any family looking for routines and structured care.

Tana H., Nanny in Lakeside, CA 92040 with 7 years of paid experience

Hi! My name is Tana Hoppe, and I am a responsible, energetic, and experienced 23-year-old nanny looking for a summer nanny position in San Diego from June 5th – August 12th. I have been nannying and babysitting for most of my life and have extensive experience caring for children ranging from 4 months old through 12 years old. I genuinely love working with children and strive to create a safe, fun, nurturing, and engaging environment where kids feel supported, cared for, and encouraged to learn and have fun. I am CPR certified, have a completely clean driving record, and am very comfortable transporting children to activities, camps, sports, appointments, playdates, or wherever they may need to go. I am also pet friendly, love spending time outdoors, and enjoy keeping kids active through outdoor activities, swimming, beach days, parks, crafts, games, and fun summer adventures. In addition to childcare, I truly enjoy helping families keep their homes running smoothly. I am happy to assist with children’s laundry, tidying and organizing, meal and snack prep, making lunches, light housekeeping related to the children, and cleaning up throughout the day. I naturally enjoy keeping spaces clean and organized and love being an extra helping hand for busy families. Professionally, I work in sales, which has strengthened my communication, organization, reliability, and problem-solving skills. I will be in California for the summer while my husband completes his finance internship and would love the opportunity to support a wonderful family during that time. I served a full time ads mission and work every Sunday as a teacher for kids 8 - 10. I love kids all ages. I am available Monday–Friday, can start as early as needed, and am available until approximately 6:00 PM each day. I am happy to be flexible when needed to best support your family’s schedule. I also have multiple strong references available upon request and would love the opportunity to connect to see if I would be a great fit for your family!

I am currently a student studying to become a speech pathologist, with the intention of working in schools one day! I love working with kids, during the school year I work at a daycare with ages ranging from infants - 6 years old. This semester I also started working with Right At School in Berrien Springs Public Schools, with grades kindergarten-5th. I am also a big animal person and would enjoy watching over your pets as well, as I frequently cat and dog sit and have a couple cats myself. I would love to get to know you and your family:)

Monica B., Nanny in Lakeside, CA 92040 with 20 years of paid experience

I am now available most days, nights or overnights! Either full (5 days/nights) or part time (1,2, or 3 days/nights) per week. I am used to working long hours, as most of my jobs have been for families within the medical community. In the meantime, I am also available for evening, your date nights, or overnights should you need a weekend away. Whatever your schedule is, please ask me, I may be able to help you, or work something out on a temporary basis. I graduated from C.E.R.T. (community emergency response team) Academy, taught by San Diego Fire-Rescue Dept. I am happy to be of service to my community in case of a disaster or terrorist attack. I have all three CPR certificates for infant, child, and adult. My first aid training exceeds that of the general public. I love babies/kids of all ages and they love me! I appreciate the hard work and sacrifice of our military families and I give military family discounts! If your child has any special needs, such as medical or behavioral, I may charge a little more. You may contact me by text message or calling. Please leave a message with your name, number, area you live in, and the times and date you are looking for a sitter and I will be happy to return your call as soon as I am able. Thank you!

Alicia is amazing. We were fortunate to have her care for our 2 year old daughter as a nanny for 8 months. We couldn't recommend her more highly. She is extremely patient, wonderfully creative, reliable and trustworthy. We're big fans, and believe she's destined for grand things. If we get the chance to have her care for our daughter again we wouldn't hesitate.

Hello Families! My name is Antonella, I am 29 years old, originally from Argentina. I came to the US 8 years ago to be an Au Pair and work with young children. I graduated last year with a BA in Psychology and now I work occasionally as a nanny and date nights sitter:) I have 10 years of experience with children of different ages (4 months old - 15 years old) and I enjoy spending time with all of them! Before starting college I was an Au Pair for two years and gained a lot of experience with infants, toddlers, and preschoolers/kindergarteners. I’ve worked as a live in nanny, live out full time and part time, and occasionally nanny for multiple families! I’m happy to teach kids Spanish and I’m comfortable with all their routines (daytime, nap time, evenings, night time, homework). I’m also comfortable driving with them and helping them with their homework! I took Child Development classes at SMC and I learned a lot about, as a caregiver, how to help children to develop their physical, cognitive, and emotional skills. - Fully vaccinated - Own transportation - Reliable references - Driver License - Non-smoker - Comfortable with pets

Anto has been working for us as a part-time nanny for over a year and we have nothing but good things to say! She is super helpful, easy to work with, and does a stellar job taking care of our two kids who are now 7 and 9. She consistently picks up our kids from school and activities on time, in her own car, and without issue. Beyond that she makes healthy snacks and meals for the kids without direction or assistance, and is a great communicator. Anto makes sure that the kids do the things they need to do while under her care, and makes time to play with them as well. She is also really nice, and both kids truly enjoy her company. We're very thankful to have Anto's help, and will continue to work with her as long as she is available. Highly recommended!!

Jen is an outstanding and reliable babysitter! She consistently shows initiative and creativity. She offered to help with potty training and is very knowledgeable about child development, having worked with children with ASD. She plays creatively with children and truly honors our screen-free policy. It’s clear she genuinely loves interacting with kids, and our daughter, who is particularly picky, absolutely loves her. We feel very lucky to have Jen!

Zoe arrived promptly and was immediately sweet with our kiddo. She engaged with our kid throughout the morning and gave us a sense of peace of mind. She sent us pictures of our kid while we were away which was appreciated. We look forward to having her babysit again.
