A little bit about me

I am an experienced nanny/babysitter. I graduated from Florida State University majoring in Biological Sciences on a pre-med track. My career goals are to one day own a Health, Beauty and Wellness Center. Currently I am based in San Diego, CA and I am in a transitional period in my career. I just recently got married to a Marine stationed here in San Diego and can’t wait to start a family of my own, but until then I’d love to help out families with their busy schedules. I love children and enjoy watching them grow.

A little bit about me

I'm a native San Diegan. I love going to the beach, enjoying nature and spending time with my family. I love the Lord Jesus Christ and getting to know Him and His love more and more is my life's passion. I enjoy working with children and was blessed to be able to home-school my son for about 4/5 years. He is now in high school. I've also had the privilege of providing childcare to children at church, which I've found very rewarding. I'm looking to provide part-time childcare and be a blessing wherever the Lord leads, and I pray for anyone that comes across this post that the Lord would lead you and guide you and your family in His peace and to find the best fit for your family. Thank you 😊

A little bit about me

Hi I’m Trinity Haskett I am 20 years old and I have been babysitting/ nannying for 8 years. I started off watching my nephews and cousins. Then I found this website and started working with an amazing family in 2020 but they sadly moved after working with them for 3 months. After that family I found another family on nannylane which I had cared for a 3 month old baby girl for a year and 6 months they had decided they wanted to have her in daycare so I got let go. Also I occasionally watch this special needs baby boy who is about 3 every few months when the Family comes to visit San Diego. I love playing games/ teaching them puzzles games, I love to read them stories, go on walks, take them to the park (only if it’s comfortable with you) and I love to occasionally bring them gifts every once in a while:) I get along with really about any age group of kids:)
