Hi there, I am a seasoned Early Childhood Teacher and nanny looking to work for a family that will value and utilize my skills, experience, attention to details and genuine love of being with children. I have worked with young children (infant to 12 years of age) in a variety of settings for many years: preschool teacher, nanny, camp-counselor, dramatic-arts coach, and classroom volunteer. I am TRUSTLINE verified (which is a deeper background check than what is run on this platform). I have a clean driving record and excellent references. Because of my experience and maturity, I bring both wisdom and calm while still embodying youth and vitality. I have been told that I float seamlessly among all age groups and have been referred to as a “Yoga-Mary Poppins”. I have a BA with emphasis in psychology, an AA in Early Childhood Education, CPR/First-Aid certifications and a vast understanding of children with different learning styles. I believe children learn best and thrive when all their needs (social/emotional, physical, cognitive, and creative) are being addressed and met. I am dedicated to the well-being of children and have a natural ability creating nurturing environments where children feel safe, seen, respected and excited. I know how to set boundaries (while still having fun), anticipate meltdowns and redirect with ease. My intention when working with babies and children is to focus on engaging them in active educational play that supports their developmental milestones. I enjoy “play with a purpose” whether it’s park days, interactive games, nature outings, library story-times, arts/crafts or science activities; your baby/child will be learning when they are with me. My number one goal when caring for children is that they feel safe and happy. I look forward to the opportunity of meeting you and your family.

Hi! I'm Victoria — a 22-year-old college student in Tucson (Oro Valley) with a passion for working with children. I'm a certified nursing assistant and caregiver, CPR-certified for all ages, and trained in emergency response. I have a fingerprint clearance card, food safety certification, and a reliable car with a valid driver’s license. I’ve worked with kids ages 8 months to 14 years, including experience as an after-school teacher. I’m fluent in Spanish, love art and animals, and took two years of cooking classes — so I’m happy to help with meals, cleaning, errands, and creating fun, engaging activities. My goal is to become a pediatrician, and I'm gaining hands-on experience while finishing school. I’m available 20–60 hrs/week, live out, but open to overnights if needed. My rate is $20/hr

Hi there! My name is Sabrina and I have over 12 years of combined experience with babysitting, youth program coordinating and youth case management. I love being a caregiver to youngsters of all ages as well as supporting my family and all animals. I have certification in coordinating programs for holistic/Indigenous healing practices for children and families as well as autistic + neurodivergent kiddos. As someone who has sensory processing disorder, I put so much intention behind curating safe and happy spaces for little ones and understand that looks different for each child. I have been an auntie/tia for most of my life now and have been the go to sitter in my family and community simply because I love co-exploring and co-learning with the younger generation from a trauma-informed and play-based approach. As a former flight attendant, I am very confident in my innate and gained skills to respond quickly and efficiently to emergencies and prioritize the safety of your loved ones above all else. I also have an up to date Level 1 Fingerprint Clearance card that I can send a photo of along with my drivers license. I hope to inspire your kiddos as much as I know they will inspire me :-) thank you for considering me as a caregiver and mentor for your little one(s)!

Hi there! My name is Liz Martin and I worked full-time as a nanny in the Tucson area from 2018 to early 2025. I have worked for several different families with kids ranging from newborn to 10 years old. In January 2025 I started nursing school and stopped nannying full time, but have kept a few babysitting clients for when my schedule allowed. I am approaching my last semester and have a little more availability than I did earlier this year. Nights, weekends, and the occasional weekday could fit into my schedule now. I especially like working date nights! Additionally, I am trained as a postpartum doula and have focused much of my nursing school studies on the NICU, so I love babies and I am trained in newborn care.

My name is Lexi, and I am excited to offer my services as a dedicated childcare provider. With over eight years of experience working with children of various ages, I have honed my skills in creating safe, nurturing, and engaging environments. My background includes assisting with transportation, homework support, organizing playtime activities, and establishing effective nap routines. I am currently a nursing student, taking a hiatus to save for tuition. This pause allows me to commit fully to a long-term childcare position, though I am also open to part-time or short-term arrangements. Upon resuming my studies, my classes will be limited to twice a week in the evenings from 6:30 p.m. to 8:30 p.m., ensuring minimal disruption to my availability. I hold certifications in CPR, CPI, and First Aid, and have completed all necessary background checks, including fingerprint clearance. I am more than willing to provide references, a detailed resume, or any additional documentation upon request. Comfortable in homes with pets and open to performing light housekeeping duties, I pride myself on being flexible and accommodating to the unique needs of each family. I have reliable transportation and am committed to punctuality and dependability. My passion for childcare is deeply rooted in my aspiration to integrate pediatric care into my future nursing career. I genuinely love working with children and am dedicated to contributing positively to their growth and well-being. Please feel free to reach out with any questions or concerns. I look forward to the opportunity to become a valued part of your family.
