A little bit about me

Hi, my name is Laura. I am currently working as a full time nanny and am looking for part time or evening work. I have been a professional full time nanny since 2015. Previously, I worked as a local elementary classroom teacher for 10 years. I can personal assist, nanny, and tutor, as I have taught across the grade levels. I have been working with infants and children of all ages; I worked seven summers as a camp counselor, three years as a nursery director, years as a nanny and babysitter for many families, and as a school teacher. I live in Ocean Beach (grew up in Point Loma). I have a reliable vehicle and clean driving record. I am extremely experienced and have references available. I am organized and can help with light housework, running errands, or cooking meals. I have CPR certification, current flu shot, tdap vacccine, and have been fingerprinted and background checked. I am very responsible, dependable, and look forward to hearing from you soon! Thank you!

A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Isabella and I am 25 years old. I recently moved to San Diego from Upstate New York. I am a caring, reasonable, and dependable nanny who genuinely enjoys working with children. I am CPR certified. I have experience caring for children of all ages and find so much joy creating a fun, safe and comfortable environment where kids can feel happy and supported. I am patient, attentive, personable and reliable. I enjoy everything from doing crafts, being outdoors, helping with homework, and being there for everything else in between. I have 4 years of experience working with children, including nannying and behavioral analysis. I am happy to provide references for all positions I have fulfilled. I understand how important it is for parents to feel comfortable in the person caring for their children and I'd love the opportunity to get to know your family and become someone your family can rely on and hopefully build a genuine connection with your kids along the way!

A little bit about me

I’m an experienced nanny and the oldest of four, with more than a decade of hands‑on childcare under my belt. I’ve cared for children of all ages, from infants to preteens, and even managed a household for three months while the parent was abroad. I’m CPR and First Aid certified, passionate about helping kids learn and grow, and excited to support a family that values kindness, creativity, and consistency. I love creating a safe, fun, and supportive environment for every child I work with.

I’m also very comfortable around animals — my family has chickens, rabbits, dogs, and cats — so pets are never a problem and always a bonus.

A little bit about me

Hi, I'm Sophie, a career nanny and I have a big passion for early childhood education and development. For the past two years I've been a preschool teacher at an inclusion school for neurodiverse children. Prior to teaching preschoolers, I was an RBT but quickly learned that the morals and motives behind ABA and I do not align. During college was when I found my love for nannying and working with big, busy, families that like to go places! For most of my career I have cared for children with ASD and I would consider it my specialty but love working with all neuro types! I truly put my whole heart into everything I do and take my nannying career very seriously!
