Chandler K., Babysitter in Valley Center, CA 92082 with 8 years of paid experience

Hi I’m Chandler :) I’m a 26 year old former cheerleader/future teacher. I have an associates degree in Child Development and am currently in school for my bachelors so I can teach. :) have been caring for children as a profession since I was 18 and I know I’ll never ever do anything else. I am a respite care provider as well as a babysitter through Sittercity. I was a teachers assistant for 6 years in a special education classroom but left this year to take school on full time. Before this, I did volunteer work for special needs programs while I was a teen. All in all I have 10 years of experience which have molded me into a patient and intuitive caregiver. I have lots of energy to keep up with any child and I truly enjoy their company. I’ve cared for all ages from 2 months old through to adulthood and am very comfortable learning new routines and home rhythms. Every person deserves to be cared for by people who choose to spend their day with them. This is how I spend my days :)

Alyda M., Babysitter in Valley Center, CA 92082 with 10 years of paid experience

Hello, families my name is Alyda and I am 27 years old. I am a very honest, energetic and a loving person. I have been caring for children for as long as I can remember. Most recently, I worked for a family in Fallbrook for four years, but the kiddos have gotten older! I love to cook and do not have any problems doing some light housekeeping (picking up after the children, doing dishes, occasional children’s laundry, etc.). I am excellent at making super fun (healthy) snacks for children! I believe kids should create memories outdoors! I speak English and Spanish fluently. I am non-smoker as well as have a clean driving record. I am also a dog owner so I would definitely not mind being around dogs. I’d be happy to provide references as well as meet or chat on the phone. Looking forward to hearing from you and I wish you the best of luck with your search!

Robbyn S., Babysitter in Valley Center, CA 92082 with 48 years of paid experience

Caring for children of various ages, personalities, intelligence levels, and health conditions has become a lifestyle for me over the years. Helping young people on a close up and personal basis has provided them with the care they need while providing me with a sense of purpose and intrinsic enjoyment. Helping to raise three children over a 16 year period yielded me many experiences and has equipped me with various skills to include: diapering, bathing, grooming, bottle feeding, cooking, serving meals, light housecleaning, laundry, shopping, lunch packing, scheduling the children's appointments and activities, assisting with homework, driving children to and from school, after school activities, to their doctor and dental appointments, sports activities, and social functions, etc. More detailed experience includes full infant care, potty training, nap and bedtime routines, dispensing medications as instructed by the parents, teaching bike riding, swimming, phonetic reading, playtime at the park and beach, singing songs together, picnics, play dates, instructing children in crafts (such as Easter egg dying), teaching budgeting for children with their allowances, how to write thank you letters, teaching pet care, and how to wrap gifts. Have homeschooled students through grades 1-12 with hands-on teaching as well as establishing a home school with the state of California and overseeing an independent high school study program. Experience prepping middle school and high school students for theater auditions, procuring musical instruments/lessons, and finding instructors for children to expand their skills in such things as surfing, voice training, Cotillion, table manners, dog training, drivers' education, etc. Have planned birthday parties and sleepovers. Attended parent/teacher conferences, volunteered as a teacher's aid, and have assisted with school projects. CPR/first aid certified for 30+ years. Have volunteered as an acting instructor, intern director, makeup artist, and costume procurer, and Crew Manager for children's theater. I especially love reading to children, art projects, and helping them learn to cook and bake the foods they love to eat! Relationship building is key. There is a balance between fun, instruction, and discipline. Sharing life’s experiences, feelings, and ideas builds friendships, as well as mutual trust and respect. And of course, an occasional great big belly laugh does everybody a world of good!

Hi! My name is Emma and I am a graduate of Arizona State University. I have been a nanny for the past six years, the past three of which I have been a family assistant. I have traveled with families as well as cared for the children for weeks at a time while parents are away on business or vacations.

I pride myself on being organized and clean, so I am always happy to help around the house. I look forward to hearing from you! Thank you, Emma

Diana S., Babysitter in Valley Center, CA 92082 with 10 years of paid experience

Hello, my name is Diana, and I am a fully qualified Early Childhood Educator with several years of experience supporting children and families. Working with families is more than a job to me, it’s something I genuinely love and value. My passion for childcare began at a young age while assisting my mother, who served as a nursery leader at our church. Over the years, I supported infants and older children in classroom settings, and I continue to serve in children’s ministry today. Professionally, I worked as a nanny for one family for four years and have provided childcare support for multiple families. I later worked in a licensed daycare, caring for infants, toddlers, preschoolers, and school aged children. During this time, I earned my Early Childhood Education units and was promoted to Lead Infant Teacher. In addition to childcare, I have experience supporting homeschooling by assisting with daily routines, age appropriate learning activities, homework help, and creating a structured yet nurturing learning environment.While I loved working in a classroom setting, I am currently continuing my education and working toward my long-term goal of opening my own daycare. At this stage, I am seeking a lower-paced, family-focused environment where I can provide individualized, attentive care and fully dedicate my time and energy to one family.

Hunter K., Babysitter in Valley Center, CA 92082 with 3 years of paid experience

Hi i’m Hunter and i’m 19 years old from Vista California! I’ve been babysitting since I was about 14 years old on and off. From the age of 14-16 I’ve helped families by watching their kids for date nights or throughout their working shifts as well as taking care of their animals. The age group i’ve watched has been from 3-11 years old. I haven’t sat in awhile due to years of hours a week of competitive all star cheerleading training, school and work on top of all of that so balancing it all was rough but made it through. I am currently enrolled in Palomar college taking classes as well as working as a server at Islands in Vista. I absolutely love early morning hikes, working out, playing with my dogs , yoga and beach walks. I am a very active person, I love to be outdoors and I love to get my body moving at all times!
