Find experienced nannies in Valley Center, CA

I have been active on Sittercity for some time and it has allowed me to connect with many wonderful families with different dynamics and needs! Childcare has always been a passion of mine and because of that I aspire to be an elementary school teacher in the future! I’m currently in collage working towards an AA Degree in Child Development, just one small step in my educational journey! I have a few years of babysitting experience under my belt and I have previously worked at an after school program, where I would look after —mainly— kindergarteners and first graders. I am First Aid + CPR certified and I also have a drivers license and reliable car for travel. I am enthusiastic, calm, and want to help create a safe and supportive environment for the kids that I work with, that is also in tandem with the family’s needs!

Hello Parents, My name is Alejandra, and I am dedicated to providing high-quality care and support for children. Over the years, I’ve gained extensive experience working with children ranging from 5 months to 12 years old. I deeply enjoy my work and take pride in creating a safe, nurturing, and engaging environment where children can thrive. I incorporate elements of the Reggio Emilia approach, fostering curiosity, creativity, and independence in every child. My vaccinations are fully up to date, and I approach my role with professionalism, compassion, and a genuine love for helping children grow and learn.

Hi! My name is Rebeca and I love kids! It's always something new with them and I enjoy seeing their little personalities come out. One of my favorite things I have experienced with working with kids is seeing how every little one is always different in some way or another. I enjoy cooking/baking, reading, and enjoying the outdoors, especially the beach! I am responsible, reliable, communicative, caring, and extremely family-oriented. Although I am young, I have a long history of child care, such as paid child care, camp counseling, children's ministry, and a couple more experiences as well. I am dedicated to giving 100 percent to the things I am committed to, and I love doing everything knowing I am giving it my all! Thank you for your time!

I have a passion to work and learn with children. I come from a big family and have always dove right into helping, understanding, play time, nap time and over all day to day todo’s for baby and mama. I worked at the YMCA Child Care I found myself excited for new challenges and little fun moments that laid ahead. I want to provide a safe, encouraging and fun environment for parents and children. I am always ready to jump in and give some extra hands while having fun and making a difference.

My name is Karina Jimenez. I am a student at Miracosta College with an AA in Child Development. I love seeing children grow and be able to provide fun activities and watch them learn in their own way. I am very patient with children and families to make sure everyone gets their needs met.

Hello, my name is Diana, and I am a fully qualified Early Childhood Educator with several years of experience supporting children and families. Working with families is more than a job to me, it’s something I genuinely love and value. My passion for childcare began at a young age while assisting my mother, who served as a nursery leader at our church. Over the years, I supported infants and older children in classroom settings, and I continue to serve in children’s ministry today. Professionally, I worked as a nanny for one family for four years and have provided childcare support for multiple families. I later worked in a licensed daycare, caring for infants, toddlers, preschoolers, and school aged children. During this time, I earned my Early Childhood Education units and was promoted to Lead Infant Teacher. In addition to childcare, I have experience supporting homeschooling by assisting with daily routines, age appropriate learning activities, homework help, and creating a structured yet nurturing learning environment.While I loved working in a classroom setting, I am currently continuing my education and working toward my long-term goal of opening my own daycare. At this stage, I am seeking a lower-paced, family-focused environment where I can provide individualized, attentive care and fully dedicate my time and energy to one family.

Caring for children of various ages, personalities, intelligence levels, and health conditions has become a lifestyle for me over the years. Helping young people on a close up and personal basis has provided them with the care they need while providing me with a sense of purpose and intrinsic enjoyment. Helping to raise three children over a 16 year period yielded me many experiences and has equipped me with various skills to include: diapering, bathing, grooming, bottle feeding, cooking, serving meals, light housecleaning, laundry, shopping, lunch packing, scheduling the children's appointments and activities, assisting with homework, driving children to and from school, after school activities, to their doctor and dental appointments, sports activities, and social functions, etc. More detailed experience includes full infant care, potty training, nap and bedtime routines, dispensing medications as instructed by the parents, teaching bike riding, swimming, phonetic reading, playtime at the park and beach, singing songs together, picnics, play dates, instructing children in crafts (such as Easter egg dying), teaching budgeting for children with their allowances, how to write thank you letters, teaching pet care, and how to wrap gifts. Have homeschooled students through grades 1-12 with hands-on teaching as well as establishing a home school with the state of California and overseeing an independent high school study program. Experience prepping middle school and high school students for theater auditions, procuring musical instruments/lessons, and finding instructors for children to expand their skills in such things as surfing, voice training, Cotillion, table manners, dog training, drivers' education, etc. Have planned birthday parties and sleepovers. Attended parent/teacher conferences, volunteered as a teacher's aid, and have assisted with school projects. CPR/first aid certified for 30+ years. Have volunteered as an acting instructor, intern director, makeup artist, and costume procurer, and Crew Manager for children's theater. I especially love reading to children, art projects, and helping them learn to cook and bake the foods they love to eat! Relationship building is key. There is a balance between fun, instruction, and discipline. Sharing life’s experiences, feelings, and ideas builds friendships, as well as mutual trust and respect. And of course, an occasional great big belly laugh does everybody a world of good!

Hi my name is Ashley! I have 16+ years experience with children of all Ages. I have my CPR/AED& FIRST AIDE CERTIFICATE. I started out as a babysitter at 14 and got a job at TLC, an after school daycare program and was working there at the age of 16. We would take the children during the summer to amusement parks like wild rivers, Knottsberry farm, Sea world, Disneyland, movie theaters and etc... so it was a lot of patience and responsibility to make sure they were safe and having fun at the same time. I absolutely loved it . After working at TLC I was offered a nanny job by one of the parents. I watched the children for a while and then they grew up like all children do hehehe I then went on to nanny after that for a three and six-year-old and just kept being a nanny. I eventually started working at Us Too Gymnasitcs for a couple of years. It is a non-profit Organization working with children that have special needs and children without any special needs.. the ages range from1& a half all the ways to 23 years old. We worked on behavior, taking turns, helping children that are non-verbal speak and we do a lot there and the parents instead of calling it an actual gym they call it a gem... so sweet. I also work as Respite care taker for special needs but the hours are on my terms. I am looking mostly for a Full-time position as a nanny or also it could be maybe 2 part-time jobs. I adore working with children. I have great references and can start immediately ....also I LOVE animals if you have any!! I am nurturing, kind, respectful, VERY patient, fun, reliable, clean, honest, creative and just a very down to earth happy person that enjoys to live life. I love the outdoors, taking children to their favorite parks, listening to music, doing arts and crafts, sports, and help with reading/homework, encouraging them and whatever the children are interested in..I'm up for it!!..Pretty much having fun happens while I'm with the kids!!! I always want to put smiles on their faces the whole time I'm with them and hopefully after I leave too hehe.. I am very flexible and like I said, I could start today or tomorrow. I am open to anything. Thank you for your time and I look forward to meeting you!! ~Ashley
