Hi! My name is Diane, and I would love to help your family! I am new to Oceanside and currently looking for regular part-time or occasional employment. As a babysitter, I have 20+ years of childcare experience with children of all ages and in all kinds of environments, including traveling abroad. I am an energetic and positive individual with an unbeatable work ethic, and I consciously strive to anticipate and take care of a family's needs. I am willing to lend a hand anywhere I see a need, including doing laundry, buying groceries, mailing packages, organizing closets, helping with homework, and more. I love to bake, travel, listen to music, read, be outside, make crafts, go on adventures, and dance anywhere. A ballet dancer since the age of three, I performed professionally for 10+ years before transitioning into a career as a dance educator and teaching artist. After graduating from Read more NYU with a M.A. in Dance Education, I spent five years in Chicago working for The Joffrey Ballet. I am thrilled to have recently returned to the West Coast where I can pursue my newfound passion for surfing as well as meet and work with wonderful new families; I hope to hear from you soon!

We've worked with Diane for the past 18 months and she's fabulous. Search no further. Smart, professional, caring and conscientious. Don't hesitate, she's the best!

I cannot say enough good things about Diane! She is reliable, prompt, well-organized and great with my 3yo daughter who just adores her. Communication is very open and clear with her and for me, planning ahead is key and she's on the same page. I rarely have to double check to make sure she'll be here when we need her to be bc she is always prompt and will let you know if she's behind (which is rare). She is also a quick learn and can anticipate the needs of your child sooner rather than later so there's no need to micromanage her. We love Diane and you will too!
