Find experienced child care providers in Lakeside, CA

Hello Families! My name is Antonella, I am 28 years old, originally from Argentina. I came to the US 8 years ago to be an Au Pair and work with young children. I graduated last year with a BA in Psychology and now I work occasionally as a nanny and date nights sitter:) I have 10 years of experience with children of different ages (4 months old - 15 years old) and I enjoy spending time with all of them! Before starting college I was an Au Pair for two years and gained a lot of experience with infants, toddlers, and preschoolers/kindergarteners. I’ve worked as a live in nanny, live out full time and part time, and occasionally nanny for multiple families! I’m happy to teach kids Spanish and I’m comfortable with all their routines (daytime, nap time, evenings, night time, homework). I’m also comfortable driving with them and helping them with their homework! I took Child Development classes at SMC and I learned a lot about, as a caregiver, how to help children to develop their physical, cognitive, and emotional skills. - Fully vaccinated - Own transportation - Reliable references - Driver License - Non-smoker - Comfortable with pets

My name is Kimberly, and caring for children has been the heart of my life for over 30 years. As a mother of four wonderful adult children and a proud grandmother to a spirited 4-year-old, I bring both the wisdom of experience and the warmth of a naturally nurturing personality. I am a highly responsible, dependable, and adaptable nanny with an exceptional record of family satisfaction. Thanks to raising my own children and working with families of all ages and needs, I am confident handling everything from newborn care to busy after-school schedules. I’m calm and creative under pressure, and I respond quickly and thoughtfully to any unusual or challenging situation. I have extensive hands-on childcare experience, including caring for up to six children at once and supporting families with infant twins, toddlers, and school-aged children. I’m mature, patient, fun, and fully present. Children tend to bond with me quickly because I’m warm, engaging, and love getting involved at their level—whether we’re building forts, reading stories, doing sensory play, or supporting growth milestones. I’m CPR/First Aid certified, an excellent cook, and highly organized. My multitasking ability is strong, but my attention to each child as an individual is even stronger. I believe in creating a safe, loving, and structured environment where children feel secure, supported, and free to explore, learn, and be themselves. Families describe me as deeply caring, trustworthy, and easy to communicate with. I take pride in being reliable, consistent, and committed to long-term relationships. My schedule is extremely flexible, including days, evenings, and weekends. Above all, I bring heart into what I do. I genuinely love children, and I invest myself fully in the families I work with.
