I AM in good health, live in Encinitas, am on SS and basically retired with my husband.  I work currently on a periodic basis basis for a seven-year old boy I have had since he was 10 months in 2014.

Jillian R., Babysitter in Carlsbad, CA 92009 with 10 years of paid experience

Hi there! My name is Jillian, and I’m a local student based in the Oceanside/San Diego area, currently pursuing my B.A. in Sociology at CSUSM. I’m a free-spirited, joyful person who loves to laugh, read, work on cars, go to the gym, enjoy the outdoors, and hunt for unique vintage finds while thrifting! I bring nearly a decade of hands-on childcare experience, working with children from newborns to teens (typically ages 0–14). I genuinely love creating engaging and imaginative activities that help kids learn and grow—whether we’re crafting, reading, exploring outside, or just enjoying a cozy day at home. I also have light experience with Montessori-style caregiving, if that aligns with your family’s values. I’ve worked long-term with several families (5+ years) and would be happy to provide references upon request. I’m comfortable managing larger groups, with plenty of experience caring for 4–6 children at a time. If you have any questions or would like to connect, feel free to reach out—I’d love to chat!

Tsering Y., Babysitter in Carlsbad, CA 92009 with 5 years of paid experience

I am a nanny with five years of paid experience and have cared for infants, toddlers, young kids & pre-teens. The safety of the kid (s) is my first priority. I always try to keep them engaged in educational activities such as reading, singing, playing, and drawing to foster their educational as well as psychosocial development. I limit screen time with younger kids and encourage them to read/play instead. I believe in gentle parenting. I am very compassionate in nature and love the kids like my own kids. I can give you excellent references from current & previous families. What sets me apart from other sitters is my passion for the kids, and also I have a degree in child psychology :) I am CPR trained, covid vaccinated/boosted, non-smoker, have my own car, and an animal lover! If you think I am a good fit, I look forward to chatting with you. Thank you!

Ranee  M., Babysitter in Carlsbad, CA 92009 with 2 years of paid experience

I have been active on Sittercity for some time and it has allowed me to connect with many wonderful families with different dynamics and needs! Childcare has always been a passion of mine and because of that I aspire to be an elementary school teacher in the future! I’m currently in collage working towards an AA Degree in Child Development, just one small step in my educational journey! I have a few years of babysitting experience under my belt and I have previously worked at an after school program, where I would look after —mainly— kindergarteners and first graders. I am First Aid + CPR certified and I also have a drivers license and reliable car for travel. I am enthusiastic, calm, and want to help create a safe and supportive environment for the kids that I work with, that is also in tandem with the family’s needs!

Olivia  B., Babysitter in Carlsbad, CA 92009 with 6 years of paid experience

Hi, I lead a life focused on creating a positive atmosphere for both myself and those around me. I would consider myself reserved, yet in the right environment my bubbly side shines through. I would consider myself a busy body so schedules and organization have always been a big part of my life. I love to clean and in most cases find it relaxing. Thanks to my mom I love to cook and have a lot of experiences with easy meals that are super delicious. I have a lot of experience working with kids and find that they bring out the bubbly side in me the most. I have experience working as an intern at Pilgrims Preschool from 2018 to 2019. From this, I was able to learn fun activities and the proper ways to teach children from ages 2-4. From 2014-2020 I also volunteered in my church nursery, working with kids ages 0 to 2. I believe teaching and playing through art and nature is a major step in the personal growth of children! During my first nanny job I was responsible for caring for a 1yr old, 3 yr old and 5yr old. I was responsible for getting them dressed and cooking breakfast in the morning. I would then pack snacks and the diaper bag for the days adventure. After the park I cooked lunch and nap time started. During nap time I would clean and do laundry as well as organize anything the parents needed me to. I was also responsible for organizing the children’s schedule as well as looking after the children’s fabulous 99yr old great grandmother. More recently I worked for a 18month and 3yr old (now 3 and 5) and I was their nanny for a year till I started my college journey but I still babysit them frequently and consider them family! My last nanny job was for 8month old twins (now 22 months) and I was with them for over a year part time but I am now moving and I will miss them so much! Over all as a nanny my goal is to make the children happy and the parents lives easier so that they can spend the most time with their kids once I leave. Only the best to come, Olivia
