Nanny shares, the best of both worlds

The Sylvester Family
We chose a nanny share because it allowed us to make sure that our child was getting great, individual attention from a person that we could trust while helping us to manage costs. We couldn't afford to have one nanny, and found another family that was in a similar situation and shared our values.

A little bit about me

Hello! I'm Lydia, 20 year-old a college student in San Diego county looking for a part-time nanny position.
(My college classes can be MWF or TUTH depending on what days you need. Until Dec 2026 my classes are MWF.)

I'm working towards a human biology degree at UC San Diego since early childhood development and biology are such a big interest of mine.

A little bit about myself: I enjoy going out on the weekends to music festivals, small art projects, and playing with my pet hamster!
I am open and quick to learn, always have a calm and positive demeanor, a hardworker, and own a vehicle with a license + registration.

I was raised by babysitters myself so I'm simply hoping to give back to my community!

A little bit about me

Hello My name is Blanca I have been babysitting since I was 12 years old. As I was growing up I started taking care of new born babies. I was 15 when it was my first time with a new born. As years passed I was studying to be a nurse/CNA . I took some classes and passed I've moved from place to place my whole life. I did stop at some point with babysitting but now I'm coming back. I love baby's and children no matter what age we've always had fun!
I love going out for walks, dancing doing karaoke nights as well . 😌
