Find experienced babysitters in Elfin Forest, CA

I have been working with kids since my first job at the YMCA. There I worked in the interactive zone with toddlers up to pre teens. I have been a swim instructor and lifeguard. I previously nannied, while completing my cosmetology degree. My younger brother is 7 years younger than me so, I also grew up watching him and his friends. I absolutely love kids. They are an example of being 100% yourself without being affected by the world yet. I hope to be a mom one day. I’m very patient and I’m very interactive. Nowadays, I think it’s very important to have children doing activities so, they’re not always staring at a screen. I am also CPR certified. Since I work independently for myself as a Hair Stylist, I do have flexible availability! I would describe my personality as outgoing and young at heart. I also love to cook at home, so happy to help with meal prep or laundry or errands if necessary.

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

Hello Parents, Im Lisa, a 52 year old energetic responsible and mature woman with a background check. I'm drug, Alcohol & smoke free. I have a truck, car, car seat, clean driver's license and full insurance. I've been babysitting since I was 12 years old which gives me 34 years of experience. I also pet sit so if you are out of town I can watch your furry baby's too. Other experience; premie babies, 4 days old babies, LOTS of twins and a 3 year old triplets, children with autism, ADHD, Asperger, Down syndrome, asthma and special diets such as gluten-free & dairy free. -2019 I was caring for twin girls since they were 4 months old 2 days a week until they were a year old. - 7/2011 - 7/2017 I was watching Kai from 13 months old till 7. Kai has Autism, delayed walking & speech, many food allergies and some behavioral issues. I watched Kai for an occasional date night & then every Sunday. On Sunday's I picked him up at 8 am at his house in La Jolla. I then drove him to Poway for a soccer class followed by breakfast at a local restaurant. Afterwards we would go to a local park/library/zoo/sea world/movie during the middle of the day. At 3 I would drive him to his 3:30 therapy horseback riding where his parents pick him up at 4. Kai would also sleep over at my home 1 night every couple of months so his parents can have a night away. Kai is gluten free & dairy free so I can follow a stick food program. I also house sit & dog sat when they went out of town. Sadly after watching Kai for 6 years he has moved out of state on July 2016 to be closer to his grandparents. 2- 2009-2018 Samantha age 12 and Stephanie is 9 years old.

This is a VERY small part of my babysitting history. If you have any other questions feel free to ask me. Thank you very much for considering me, Lisa

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!
