A little bit about me

Hello! My name is Kailey Thompson, and I’m a student at California State University, San Marcos, majoring in Child Development. I’ll be graduating in the spring of 2026, and I’m passionate about helping children learn, grow, and feel supported.
I’ve been babysitting for about seven years and have cared for children of many different ages. I truly enjoy spending time with kids, whether that means playing games, helping with homework, going on walks, or doing arts and crafts. I always aim to create a fun, safe, and nurturing environment where children feel comfortable and happy.
I consider myself a friendly, active, and positive person who loves making people around me smile. I’m dependable, patient, and always do my best to adapt to each family’s needs and routines. In addition to childcare, I’m happy to help with light housekeeping to help keep things running smoothly at home.
I look forward to connecting with families who value kindness, creativity, and care.

A little bit about me

Hi, I'm Katie! I'm a 17-year-old student at San Marcos High School and I'm really excited about the possibility of being a nanny. I have experience babysitting my younger cousins when they were newborns and toddlers, and I've also helped out with family friends' kids. I genuinely love being around children and find it so rewarding to watch them learn and grow.

Besides babysitting, I also volunteer at the local food bank. It's important to me to give back to my community, and I really enjoy helping families in need. My volunteer work has also given me more experience interacting with people of all ages and backgrounds.

A little bit about me

I currently live in San Marcos/Carlsbad. I’ve have been watching kids for the majority of my life since middle school. So approximately 7-8 years. I have watched all ages and have handled multiple kids at one time. So I can multi task. I am really great with kids and interacting with them. Playing games or toys with them, arts and crafts, taking them fo the park, etc. I have watched new borns, toddlers, young children, teens, and up. I have done light house work so i tidy up after playing with toys, dishes, laundry etc. I can help around the house if you need it. I do have reliable transportation. I am looking to work long term. Not a summer job or temporary. I’m trying to look for decent hours. And 18 per hour for a kid. But if you have multiple children we can work something out. I am available any days. I like to more mon-Friday usually but if you need a weekend day for date night or anything I’m flexible.

What Is a Weekend Nanny?

A weekend nanny cares for your children on Saturdays, Sundays, or both. Some weekend nannies work every weekend, and others are available for the occasional weekend when you have an event, a trip, or a work commitment. Many have another job during the week, so they are often flexible about shorter shifts and one-off dates.

Common Responsibilities of Weekend Nannies in San Marcos, CA

Weekend care looks a lot like any other nanny job: supervising play, preparing meals and snacks, getting children to activities, and keeping to nap and bedtime routines. Because weekends are often busier and more active, you may also ask for help with outings, birthday parties, sports games, or family errands.

What to Consider Before You Hire

Be clear about the days and hours you need, whether the schedule is regular or occasional, and how much notice you can give. Rates and pay rules, including how weekend hours are paid, vary by state or province, so agree the details in writing and consider using nanny payroll to keep it simple. If you only need a few weekends a year, say so up front so nannies can plan around it.

Weekend Nanny Interview Questions

Once you find a promising candidate, invite them for an interview to see if they would be a great fit for your family. Here are some questions you can ask:

  • Which weekends are you available, and how much notice do you need?
  • Do you work every weekend or only occasionally?
  • Are you comfortable with outings and activities, and with driving the children if needed?
  • Are you trained in First Aid or CPR?
  • What rate do you charge for weekend shifts?

At this stage, request their references and ask their references some questions. After preparing the job offer or contract, we recommend that you run a background check before the start date.
