Hi! My name is Tana Hoppe, and I am a responsible, energetic, and experienced 23-year-old nanny looking for a summer nanny position in San Diego from June 5th – August 12th. I have been nannying and babysitting for most of my life and have extensive experience caring for children ranging from 4 months old through 12 years old. I genuinely love working with children and strive to create a safe, fun, nurturing, and engaging environment where kids feel supported, cared for, and encouraged to learn and have fun. I am CPR certified, have a completely clean driving record, and am very comfortable transporting children to activities, camps, sports, appointments, playdates, or wherever they may need to go. I am also pet friendly, love spending time outdoors, and enjoy keeping kids active through outdoor activities, swimming, beach days, parks, crafts, games, and fun summer adventures. In addition to childcare, I truly enjoy helping families keep their homes running smoothly. I am happy to assist with children’s laundry, tidying and organizing, meal and snack prep, making lunches, light housekeeping related to the children, and cleaning up throughout the day. I naturally enjoy keeping spaces clean and organized and love being an extra helping hand for busy families. Professionally, I work in sales, which has strengthened my communication, organization, reliability, and problem-solving skills. I will be in California for the summer while my husband completes his finance internship and would love the opportunity to support a wonderful family during that time. I served a full time ads mission and work every Sunday as a teacher for kids 8 - 10. I love kids all ages. I am available Monday–Friday, can start as early as needed, and am available until approximately 6:00 PM each day. I am happy to be flexible when needed to best support your family’s schedule. I also have multiple strong references available upon request and would love the opportunity to connect to see if I would be a great fit for your family!

Sandra has been watching our baby regularly for a few months now, and we love her professionalism and transparency. She always confirms with us every time and communicates often if her schedule ever shifts or she is running behind. Sandra is up front with her expectations as a caregiver and will provide guidance as an experienced childcare professional. I would recommend her to any family looking for routines and structured care.

Hello, my name is Mayte, I am a college graduate and have an associates degree in Liberal Arts. I have over 15 years experience in caring for small children ages 4 months to 12 years old. I worked at the Boys and Girls Club for a little over a year and enjoyed being a group leader, I was in charge of a group of 20 kids and had to follow a daily curriculum. I currently work as a instructional assistant, and have experience with children from elementary to high school. I work with kids with special needs mod/severe. Additionally, I have volunteered at a preschool in which I supervised the children during play time, helped them get to sleep at nap time, assisted them at lunch, and anything else the teacher needed assistance with. Lastly, my earliest experience would be taking care of my three nephews and one niece all at once, I changed their diapers, fed them, and kept them entertained. I am a kid at heart and I would enjoy doing any activities your child may like, from watching cartoons to playing video games, board games, playing outside, arts and crafts, you name it. I have been hired by different families in the past where I have changed baby's diapers, bathed, fed, put them to bed, picked them up from school, entertained them, getting them ready for school, and everything in between. Since I work from 8am to 3pm I am available for after school care, date nights, school holiday breaks, and most weekends. (I am willing to undergo a background check) Thank you.

Antigone helped with our 3 school age kids at the hotel resort 2 days in a row. The kids really enjoyed her and were glad to have her back. She entertained them in ways we hadn’t even considered. Traffic in this area along with road work is an issue but we had given ourselves a cushion for time and parking. She followed directions well. Would definitely hire again.

Nelina is amazing! She is warm, fun, responsible, professional, and everything I would ever want in a sitter. Both my 5 year old and my 8 year old adore her (and so do I)! When I get home from work, all homework is done, my little one is ready for bed, and everyone is happy, including the dogs. I can’t think of enough good things to say about her. Of anyone reading this wants details, feel free to reach out to me.
