Hi! I’m Maddy, a reliable, energetic, and caring nanny who truly enjoys helping children learn, grow, and have fun. I have experience caring for children of different ages and understand the importance of creating a safe, nurturing, and engaging environment where they feel comfortable and supported.

A little bit about me

Hello,
I'm a professional and a single mom of a 14 yr old. I worked with children while going through college as babysitter and a live-in nanny.
I am currently unemployed and looking to keep myself busy, so due to my live for children I am naturally driving to childcare. I am a pretty good cook, if I say so myself. 😊 open to cooking & light housekeeping if needed. Love animals as well, so if there is any need with your pet(s), I am flexible with that as well. I live in Del Mar Heights, so preference would be a family close to my area of town.

A little bit about me

Hi! I'm Marie, and I'm a freshman at SDSU currently as an English major. As the eldest of 4, I've basically been a free nanny for the past decade, and my siblings are the most important people in my life. I've been an avid reader since I was three when my mom and I would go on library dates together, and my grandma taught me the basics for cooking and just overall housework and how to maintain a household. Although I live on campus, I'm a San Diego local and chose to stay close to my family, friends, and city which I adore, and I've had so much fun taking people from school on adventures throughout the city and showing it off. My dream in life is to become a mother, and my goal is simply to work as a teacher hopefully abroad in Spain where my family is from.

Hi there! My name is Karson Hauck, and I’m originally from Orange County but have been loving life in San Diego for the past year. I enjoy long walks, arts and crafts, and spending time at church. I have hands-on experience as a full-time nanny for a wonderful family, caring for a newborn, a 1-year-old, a 6-year-old, and an 8-year-old—often all at once! From naptimes and playtime to school pick-ups and homework help, I’ve done it all and truly love being part of a child’s growth and joy.
