*** AS OF NOW, I AM ONLY AVAILABLE FOR DATE NIGHT SITTING OR OVERNIGHT STAY, NOT LONG TERM BABYSITTING DUE TO NEW CAREER. I APPRECIATE EVERYONE REACHING OUT*** Hello! My name is Malissa and welcome to my profile.I love kids and enjoy every aspect of being around them. I volunteered at the Boys and Girls Club of San Diego for over 6 months and enjoyed being able to see all the different personalities in these children. I supervised children ranging from ages 6 years old to 17 years old. I also have a niece and nephew that I was able to watch since they were born and they are now 8 and 10 years old. I have experience being a nanny for a 9 year old girl and 10 year old boy. My main priorities are picking and dropping off to and from school/activities, making sure homework is done, making sure kids are fed in a timely manner, and preparing dinner for the family. I also have experience with light housekeeping such as laundry, and making sure kids play room and kitchen area are clean. I love outdoor activities and will never turn down an offer to take kids to the park, beach, the zoo, and any other wonderful attractions San Diego has to offer. I have my degree in Biology, allied health and have taken CPR, first aid, and child development courses in college. My interests include music, cooking, camping, and being in the beautiful outdoors. I can cook some dishes you have never heard of. I am used to cooking with a wide variety of food choices that include meats and seafood, but if your'e vegetarian I know of some good vegetarian recipes as well. I enjoy healthy eating, healthy living, but also having fun and staying positive! I love to laugh and make kids laugh so hopefully I sound like someone that can be perfect for YOUR family. I have references from my nanny job, Boys and Girls Club, and my sister. Thank you for reading and take care!

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.

Lisa T., Nanny in La Jolla, CA 92037 with 40 years of paid experience

Hello Parents, Im Lisa, a 52 year old energetic responsible and mature woman with a background check. I'm drug, Alcohol & smoke free. I have a truck, car, car seat, clean driver's license and full insurance. I've been babysitting since I was 12 years old which gives me 34 years of experience. I also pet sit so if you are out of town I can watch your furry baby's too. Other experience; premie babies, 4 days old babies, LOTS of twins and a 3 year old triplets, children with autism, ADHD, Asperger, Down syndrome, asthma and special diets such as gluten-free & dairy free. -2019 I was caring for twin girls since they were 4 months old 2 days a week until they were a year old. - 7/2011 - 7/2017 I was watching Kai from 13 months old till 7. Kai has Autism, delayed walking & speech, many food allergies and some behavioral issues. I watched Kai for an occasional date night & then every Sunday. On Sunday's I picked him up at 8 am at his house in La Jolla. I then drove him to Poway for a soccer class followed by breakfast at a local restaurant. Afterwards we would go to a local park/library/zoo/sea world/movie during the middle of the day. At 3 I would drive him to his 3:30 therapy horseback riding where his parents pick him up at 4. Kai would also sleep over at my home 1 night every couple of months so his parents can have a night away. Kai is gluten free & dairy free so I can follow a stick food program. I also house sit & dog sat when they went out of town. Sadly after watching Kai for 6 years he has moved out of state on July 2016 to be closer to his grandparents. 2- 2009-2018 Samantha age 12 and Stephanie is 9 years old. I had been watching the girls since they were 3 years old and 4 months old. I saw this family about once every other month. 3- 2015 - 2018; I had been watching Sam since he was 4 months old and he is now 3 years old . I saw this family every other month. This is a VERY small part of my babysitting history. If you have any other questions feel free to ask me. Thank you very much for considering me, Lisa
