A little bit about me…

My name is Bella- lovely to meet you. I live and work in the Santa Barbara area. I have over two years of experience working with children as a nanny and babysitter. It is a challenge, but it is incredibly rewarding. I am currently working on getting more ECE units under my belt. As a Montessori Center alumnus, I feel I’ve been instilled with a unique skill set, and a sense of empathy and patience. I have reliable transportation, and enjoy going for walks and park trips with the children. I am more than happy to help with light housekeeping and meal prep. I am comfortable with pets, including cats, dogs, reptiles, etc. I have worked with children from the ages of three to twelve. My base rate is $22 for mornings and $27 for nights, but happy to negotiate. Please do not hesitate to reach out if you have any inquiries for me, or if you need to see any references, my former employers would be more than happy to chat and put in a great word. Thank you for your time and consideration!

"Katie is absolutely lovely. She has watched my girls for the past year now. I’m a stay at home mom so I unfortunately don’t get to call on her often but it’s always such a delight when I do. I always come home to a sparkling house and she even somehow gets the girls to do art projects ( gasp)! She’s also incredible with my newborn as well. I would recommend her to all!"

Hi, my name is Kamori! I am an experienced and responsible babysitter with 2 years of childcare experience.

Carly E. - Seeking Work in Santa Barbara

Nanny Carly

Santa Barbara, CA
$25/hr
Full-time (nanny)
8 years experience

A little bit about me…

I'm Carly. I have been a nanny since 2012. I'm 28. I have worked as a licensed CNA, as a lab tech (yay DNA extraction!), as a tutor, and I also have my own organic makeup business that I am trying to grow. I am a single Mom to a 7 year old boy who attends school during the day. I would like to work while he is away, or even after I pick him up if he may tag along as well/I can find care for him if he cannot tag along for those hours. I have a degree in biology and psychology. My thesis was about how traumatic events experienced in childhood effect development throughout the lifespan. That being said, I only believe in redirecting unwanted behaviors and never being harsh! My nanny/parenting style is bougie hippy and science based. I love nature and don't believe kids should have screen time. I have experience tutoring. I love organizing and cleaning is relaxing to me. I am one of ten siblings, I have nannies for 5 kids under 6 years old, I can handle multitasking and chaos well!
