Hello Moms & Dads, I'm a warm and loving 36-year-old babysitter born and raised in San Diego. I work full-time during the week but love babysitting for date nights after 5 p.m. on weekdays or anytime on weekends. As an only child, I've always adored children, and babysitting gives me the chance to nurture and connect until I have my own someday. I have experience caring for children of all ages, from newborns to teens. Whether it's date nights, overnight stays, or nanny jobs, I'm dedicated to ensuring your kids are safe, happy, and engaged. I enjoy playing games, organizing educational activities, coloring, or heading out to fun places like the zoo, museums, parks, or even the pool. Details: 3-hour minimum Overnight: $150 (sleeping hours) + hourly rate (wake hours) Hourly rate varies by age/location Fully vaccinated I'd love the opportunity to provide your family with reliable and caring babysitting. Feel free to reach out!

Seeking Nannywork &/or Babysitting. I believe in learning through play. I organized first Art Program for Homeschoolers in Northwestern Oklahoma, was Head Potter at Leonardo's Children's Museum, & have taught Music & Art for over 20 years, & Astronomy & Etiquette. Due to Allergies (mammalian), a Vegetarian, Peskitarian, or Vegan Family would be ideal. I am a Christian & accepting of other cultures & religions. Religion in general, was one of my minors in college. I received the best of 2015 & 2016 Piano Instructor award, & received featured Business Spotlight, La Mesa, California, through Thumbtack. I have Passport & PassCard. Will consider travel. Parents are responsible for transport, travel, travel insurance (when necessary), costs, activity expenses, & child-related activity costs or other child related expenses. Piano &/or Art Lessons, are roughly $40-$60, all supplies included. Sickness Policy: Typically. I will not care for sick children. However, It depends on what they have. As someone who has kids at home & works with other families, I don't want to risk getting them sick. If it's contagious, I leave it to the parents to be parents & I stay home to avoid spreading it from one household to the other. Just like if my kids at home were sick, I wouldn't take their germs to work with me. If it isn't contagious, then I stick to whatever needs to be done: medicine, cuddling & fluids. My favorite sports are: Baseball, Basketball, Bowling, Dance (Ballet, Tap, Jazz, Contemporary, Ballroom), Fishing, Hula-hooping, Jump Rope, kickball, Roller Skating, Swimming, Tennis, Twirling, Yoga. When necessary, I can pick or disable most bedroom or bathroom locks. I’ve also completed basic self-defense, gun safety, conceal & carry classes within State of Oklahoma. Some of my favorite activities: Astronomy, Aquarium, Visiting Museums, Travel, Reading, Sewing and Design, Building things (remodeling, basic carpentry, fix-it, models or miniatures such as cars/ houses/ airplane's), Music and Art, Classic Cars, Agriculture, Movies. Favorite Games: Cards, Chinese Checker's, Monopoly, Checker's, Domino's, Hopscotch, Marbles, Jacks, Jinga, Tetris, Castlevanis, freeze tag, tether ball.

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!

Hi! I have a lifelong passion for education and extensive experience caring for children of all ages, from infants to middle schoolers, and even teenagers. My background includes working at the YMCA, babysitting children across a wide age range, and helping raise my younger siblings and cousins. I taught Spanish at UCSD for 3 years and continue to provide private Spanish lessons to children to this day. I love incorporating outdoor activities and expressive arts into childcare to inspire creativity and growth. With a strong focus on education, I aim to create enriching, fun, and supportive experiences for every child I care for.

In addition, I am a mother of four children. All of my daughters are currently furthering their education in college. In addition, I have a seven year old son that is adored by all of us. As the children are now at school, my job as their full time mother has allowed me to have various hours to continue my passion of working with children and the elderly population and people. I love children and just enjoy working with people. I take my responsibilities very seriously and assure you of my honesty and integrity.
