A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Madeleine and I have been babysitting the past 4 years. I've worked with children of all ages from infancy to preteens but have the most experience with children 6 mo- 4 years. Outside of babysitting I work with kids at children's a outdoor adventure camp, lifeguard, and teach swim lessons. In my free time I love to surf, hike, and read. I'm graduating early, this February, from Santa Barbara High School and looking for a family to nanny for once I graduate. I love kids and I want to provide parents with reliable childcare while I keep kids entertained and having fun.

A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Natani, and I was born and raised in Santa Barbara. I went to Bishop Diego High School and then committed to St. Lawrence University, where I played collegiate soccer.

I love being outside and staying active—surfing, playing sports, or just getting kids out in the fresh air and having fun. I am the middle of five half-sisters, so I’ve been around kids my whole life.

I’ve had experience caring for children and enjoy creating a fun, safe, and positive environment for them. Whether it’s helping with homework, keeping a routine on track, or just playing games and being silly, I’m happy to do it all. I’m patient, energetic, and easygoing, but I also know how important it is to be dependable and attentive.

I’m also more than happy to help with things like light meal prep, tidying up, or driving to activities if needed. Overall, I would love to help. :)

A little bit about me

I’m a current Junior at Westmont college studying political science! I grew up with three brothers and an array of pets in the Portland metro area. Raised in a tight knit community where lots of child care was needed, so I’ve been babysitting since 13!

I love the outdoors, animals, sports, photography, and any activity that teaches me something new!

I look forward to any opportunity to meet your family and spend time with your Little’s!

A little bit about me

Hi! I am CPR and first aid certified for both adults and children. I am also vaccinated. I have about 7 years of nannying experience ranging from 4months-10years. I graduated with a BA in Liberal Studies with the focus of teaching & I am studying to become an elementary school teacher. I have worked as an assistant preschool summer teacher, an assistant teacher in a fourth grade classroom (for two years), and have taught children 3-5 how to swim (for six years). I am enthusiastic, caring, and energetic. I am always looking for corrective criticism & will adapt to your parenting style! I am looking for a family that I can become apart of, as I think a close relationship with all members of the family is important in the help of raising a little one. I will be relocating to Santa Barbara April 26th and currently my availability is wide open.
