A little bit about me

Hi everyone! My name is Brooke and I have 4.5 years of nannying experience and 9 years as a babysitter! When I’m not working I enjoy being outside (hiking, skiing, sitting and enjoying the sounds of birds), reading books, learning new recipes and traveling! I live with my boyfriend of 4.5 years and my sweet kitty (Ophelia) who is 4 years old. I grew up in Wisconsin with my parents and my older sister, my mom ran a in home daycare until I turned 18. After turning 18 I moved to Colorado where I met my boyfriend and have been since! I’ve worked with children ages 5wks-8 years old, I’m comfortable watching multiple children (up to three currently but always up for a challenge of more), I currently hold my CNA also so I am CPR/First aid certified and can react calmly and efficiently under immense pressure. More than welcome to provide amazing references!

A little bit about me

hi everyone! my name is rida and a little bit about me is I have years of experience caring for children, starting with raising my own younger siblings, nieces, and nephews. I previously worked as a CNA, which helped me build strong skills in safety, patience, and responsibility, and I am also CPR certified. I babysat a little boy named Gabe from age 1 to 5 while his mom worked long hours, so I understand the trust and consistency families need. I’m currently a child development major, which helps me support children’s growth in simple, caring ways. I’m reliable, gentle, and truly love working with kids, and I always make sure they feel safe, happy, and well cared for.

A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Jasmine. I have 6+ years of nanny experience and have worked with children of all ages. I am currently a nanny part-time in the afternoons and am looking for another nanny job during the days for the summer. Preferably, 2-3 days a week and hours ranging anywhere from 8-4.
I have my own car and clean driving record. Just some insight on my experience; I've done summer nannying off and on since I was 15. My last nanny job was a nanny share. I started with watching one girl age 4 and a couple months after I started nannying 3 more kids along with her. I was with these two families for 4 years! Also, in that time they had a baby which added one more to the bunch and I got a ton of experience with infants and toddlers. I love nannying because it's not only fun but it's personal and I have built great long lasting relation ships with my previous families that I am very grateful! I looking forward to find another great family to work for!

A little bit about me

Hi, my name is Fatima I was born & raised in Hood River, OR. After graduating High School I moved to Los Angeles where I learned to be on my own, manage bills & overall be a responsible young adult. I now live in San Diego & would love to get back into the nanny world. I was a nanny for about one year & absolutely loved it, I eventually parted ways as I wanted to see what else I loved working in. I’ve worked at cafes/restaurants until now as I love working with people & am also in the mids of starting my company and getting into real estate. I’m outgoing & fun & enjoy helping younger kids to with anything, whether it’s with homework or tying their shoes. I love mentoring & pushing younger children to be their best which is why I enjoy babysitting. Kids & animals are my favorite & having the ability to help tend them with anything is a blessing.

A little bit about me

Hi, my name is Italia. I’m 22 years old and moving to Scripps Ranch. I am a Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) and a certified ABA technician with a genuine passion for caring for others. I have extensive experience working with children and infants, beginning at a young age.

I was raised in a home that provided in-home daycare until I was 12, followed by exposure to group homes for adults with developmental disabilities, where I spent much of my free time. These experiences shaped my patience, compassion, and strong understanding of individualized care.

I take great pride in my work, bring a positive and nurturing energy to every family I support, and remain a child at heart while maintaining professionalism and reliability. I would love the opportunity to care for and support your family.

Recent reference

"I am the principal a large private school in Korea and have 20+ years of experience. Hanna worked for us in the capacity of English language teacher for 5- and 6-year-old children, and young elementary children. She was not with us for long, so I can only speak about her character and personality, and her behavior in the classroom. Based on what I observed, I believe Hanna is sensitive, gentle, sincere, honest, patient, thoughtful, and cares about children. The students were engaged and responded to her well and she was a good influence on them. It was also apparent that Hanna has some knowledge about children with respect to education, and how to interact with children and guide them in traditional and creative ways and enjoys being around children. I am not available by phone, but I am available by email. If you would like to get in touch with me as part of conducting a reference check, or the like, please send an email to judychoi316@gmail.com."
