Hi families! I’m Val 😊 I’m a 27-year-old experienced nanny based in University City, currently looking for occasional or recurring babysitting. I have experience with multiple children of different ages, and I also worked as an Au Pair, which gave me valuable hands-on experience with daily routines, structure, and building strong bonds with kids. I’m CPR and First Aid certified, fully vaccinated, and bilingual (Spanish & English). I’m also very active (I was a national swimmer for 6 years), so I love keeping kids engaged through play, outdoor activities, and a healthy routine. Non-smoker, pet-friendly, and no allergies. Feel free to reach out! I’d love to connect and learn more about your family’s needs!

Gifted expertise with children of all ages! Newborn to 18 Hello! My name is AJ and I love children! Every child is unique and special; they deserve nothing less than my absolute best! Having 6 siblings myself, I have also worked with children in many capacities by advocating and caring for them through direct care, supervisory administrative roles & non profit boards. My formal education includes having an associates and bachelors degree in psychology. In addition to earning a Masters of Science in Clinical Mental Health Counseling, I will complete my HTR for horticultural therapy in September. I am a gentle spirited, advanced clinical counseling therapist trainee at a local psychoanalytic clinic pursuing licensure for private practice. In my free time, I enjoy stand-up comedy; as a hobby I raise chickens, bees and grow a large fruit and vegetable garden. I enjoy cooking, landscaping and staring at the stars :) :) I am here to meet the needs of your family! It’s my pleasure & joy. Please openly cater your experience with me by informing me of what your child enjoys most: academics, nature, gaming, festivals or quiet time. Rest easy in the comfort of knowing your child’s safety, curiosity, interests and fun are my top priority.

I’m a sophomore at WashU studying math and have 10 years of babysitting experience with kids from the ages of 1 to 13. My go to activity when babysitting is to either take the kids out to the park, or if rainy, enjoy an indoor crafting session! I have my own car, so I could easily drive to wherever you’re located! I’m also CPR and First Aid certified (expires and will be renewed July 2027).

Hi! My name is Merritt :) I am a recent graduate from Butler University with a BS in Biochemistry and a minor in Healthcare Administration. I am currently taking a gap year while applying to medical schools with goals to pursue a career as a physician scientist specializing in pediatric oncology. I am passionate about providing children with safe, joyful, and nurturing care. I have spent the last 7 years working with children of all ages--from newborns to teenagers-- and multiples (up to four children at any one time, including nanny share) as well as children with both medical and developmental special needs. My background working and volunteering in healthcare and childcare allows me to approach every situation with a level-head, confidence, and compassion. I am EMT-B trained as well as certified in CPR/First-Aid and "Stop the Silence" CSA prevention. I am happy to assist with meal prep, light cleaning, laundry, errands, and pet care. I love the outdoors, animals, crafts, puzzles, and creating hands-on activities that spark curiosity and creativity in kids. I am always looking for a long-term opportunity with a family who values warmth, structure, and strong communication; I am open to overnight positions (with negotiable rates). Please reach out with any questions--I'd love to learn more about your family's needs!

I have 10 years of early childcare experience. I have experience with babysitting, leading summer camps, and working in early childcare centers. I can help with daily routines, remote learning/small lesson plans, and sometimes travel for example. I have both my Bachelors and Masters in Criminal Justice & Criminology. Throughout my years in school, I also took many courses centered around childcare and development. I am currently CPR and First Aid/Oxygen certified and also have up to date clock hours. I have primarily worked with infants through 5 year olds; however, I do have experience working with school aged and older children.

Hi! My name is Olive, and I have several years of experience caring for children of all ages through nanying, regular babysitting, transportation help, and camp counseling. I currently work for multiple families on both a regular and occasional basis, helping with school pickups and drop-offs, after-school care, playtime, meals, routines, and keeping kids engaged in a safe and supportive environment. I previously worked as a nanny for a family of five, caring for three children ages 3-7, where I was heavily involved in daily routines, activities, meals, outings, and family trips. I've served as a junior camp counselor at Central Studio, helping young campers engage in creative activities while ensuring a fun and structured environment. Beyond childcare, I have experience in customer service and team leadership, working at Oberweis Dairy and as a manager at Snarf's Sandwiches. These roles have strengthened my responsibility, patience, and multitasking skills, which I bring to every babysitting job. I love working with kids, whether it's through creative play, outdoor activities, or helping with homework. Looking forward to meeting your family! - Olive

Hello! My name is Samantha! I currently work as a CPR certified personal trainer with a Bachelor's in Foods and Nutrition from SDSU. Despite my current field in health and nutrition, I have worked with kids since i before I was 13 years old. Most of my experience has been volunteer through my churches, but I also have years worth of babysitting experiencing kids of different ages. I also have experience as a tutor. When I was in junior high, I used to help out with the preschool and toddler classes at church. By the time I was 13, I was a teacher for the preschool class. I did this for five years, and I often babysat for the kids in my class as well. It broke my heart to say goodbye to all of my students when I moved to San Diego to pursue a degree in nutrition. After moving to San Diego, I spent a couple of years working in the 2 year old class at my church. I had to stop when the church closed down. The last couple years have been focused entirely on my degree. However, I really miss working with kids. I enjoys making up fun games to play and listening to their crazy made up stories. I know how hard it can be to pick a sitter for your child. I would love to meet up with you in person and let you interview me so that you can feel more comfortable.

Hi, my name is Simone! I recently graduated from the University of Maryland and am starting law school in the fall. I have loved working with kids my entire life. My favorite age group is toddlers/preschoolers, but I have experience with kids of all ages. I am looking for summer nannying or babysitting opportunities, as well as part-time opportunities during the school year. I have 6 years of experience working with kids as a camp counselor and babysitter, including children with special needs. I am CPR and First Aid certified and have my own car. My focus is to provide a safe, routine-focused, and supportive space for your child where they will be able to learn and grow. I love crafts, baking, pretend play, encouraging independent time, and spending time outdoors. I am firm but kind and I approach childcare with empathy, patience, and respect. In my personal time, I enjoy trying new recipes, playing piano, reading, playing chess, and sewing. I look forward to meeting you!
