Selena R., Child Care in San Ysidro, CA 92173 with 3 years of paid experience

Hey there! My name is Selena and I am a full time college student studying to obtain my bachelor’s degree in child development. I currently work as a student teacher (TA) at an elementary to gain experience for my future career as a school age teacher. I’ve been working with children for 3 years now! I can honestly say it’s amazing! Gaining their trust is one of my priorities. With the school’s trust, I get to help plan out a schedule and curriculum for them. From helping with homework to doing an educational activity (of course I have to add in arts and crafts for fun right after!)

Selena was great with our little ones. She was very attentive and sent us updates during the night. Our 10 month and 3 year old girls were in very safe and capable hands with Selena. We will definitely be reaching out to her again to care for our girls. Thanks Selena!

Laura  V., Child Care in San Ysidro, CA 92173 with 4 years of paid experience

Professional Childcare Provider – Laura Michelle Vazquez Dear families, My name is Laura Michelle Vazquez, and I am a dedicated childcare professional with a strong background in early childhood education and over four years of hands-on experience supporting children of all ages — from newborns and infants to toddlers and teenagers. I hold an Associate’s Degree in Child Development from Southwestern College, earned in Spring 2023, and bring a solid foundation in both developmental theory and practical application. My approach is rooted in providing safe, nurturing, and developmentally appropriate care that supports the whole child — emotionally, socially, and cognitively. As a parent myself, including to a child with ADHD Combined Type, I have developed deep personal insight into neurodiverse behaviors and needs. Professionally, I have had the privilege of working with children diagnosed with ADHD and Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), supporting them with patience, empathy, and tailored strategies that encourage trust, growth, and confidence. These experiences have strengthened my commitment to inclusive care that meets each child where they are. Now that my own children are in school, I am excited to offer my support to other families seeking a dependable, understanding, and knowledgeable caregiver. I am currently available for occasional babysitting, one-time care, and date nights. Credentials & Availability: • CPR & First Aid Certified • Experience with neurodiverse children (ADHD & Autism) • Background check available upon request • Based in Chula Vista, CA, and willing to commute • Fluent in English and Spanish (optional if applicable) I would be honored to contribute to your child’s care and well-being, and I look forward to the opportunity to support your family with professionalism and heart. Warm regards, Laura Michelle Vazquez

I hired Laura to watch my 10 month old for a few hours a day when we were on vacation in the area. It’s always nerve wracking trusting someone new with your baby, but Laura was great; communicative, prompt, and followed instructions exactly. My daughter seemed happy with her very quickly. Highly recommend Laura if you’re looking for someone to watch your child!

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.

Elizabeth H., Child Care in San Ysidro, CA 92173 with 4 years of paid experience

Hello! My name is Elizabeth, and I’m a responsible and compassionate caregiver with both professional and academic experience working with children. I hold a Master’s and Bachelor’s degree in Business Administration and work full-time as an engineer analyst, but I’m looking to provide after-school care, date-night help, or weekend support for families who need an extra hand. Before my current career, I worked in child care,behavioral health settings and was a swim instructor as well which gave me strong skills in patience, communication, and safety awareness—qualities that naturally carry over to childcare. I’m CPR certified, dependable, and very comfortable helping with homework, preparing meals, light clean-up, and creating fun, structured activities. Families describe me as warm, trustworthy, and attentive. My goal is to make sure your kids feel safe, cared for, and genuinely enjoy their time while you’re away.

Mariana is wonderful! She is very professional, and she is great with my 19-month old son. I recently started a job and needed a sitter on short notice, and she responded to my messages very quickly. She also called before our appointment to get a sense of my kids' interests, allergies, etc, and she was early for our first meeting. I was nervous about starting a new job, but having someone like Mariana take care of my son while I was able to focus on work made me feel much better. I highly recommend Mariana, and I plan to continue working with her in the future!

Yissell was great to work with. She was communicative, punctual, and went above and beyond making our twin boys feel cared for while playing with them and meeting their high energy demands. We are looking for other opportunities to have her babysit for us again in the future.
