My name is Maddie Miller, I graduated 2019 from SBHS, I am 18 years old and have decided to take a gap year before attending school next fall. I’ve been working in restaurants & retail since I was 14. I have a large family so caring for someone comes naturally to me. I enjoy outside activity mostly. I have a 3 month old chocolate lab, so I spend my time working & being with him at home or outside. I hope to meet your lovely kid(s) ! :)
Thank you for your time.

At a young age I found my passion in child care. I started locally, sitting for neighbors, friends and family, then grew into a full time nanny. My entire life I participated in sports including soccer, volleyball, swimming and track and was a girl scout up until high school. I have received my associates and bachelor degree from the University of California Santa Barbara. I was a full time nanny for a family from [phone number hidden]

I worked as a full time nanny who assisted in pick up/drop off from school and extracurricular activities. I also have experience in caring for children while their parents are away on business trips. I am also experienced with kids having disabilities. Helping kids grow and succeed while still having fun is a passion of mine that I received from my mom who is a first grade teacher! With the experience in the classroom as well as in the home, your children are in professional and loving hands.

Hye won Kim

Santa Barbara$18/hr | 6 yrs experience

I am a loving mother of two grown daughters and am looking for a new family to care for. I have been nannying for one family for the past 6 years, for a now 6-year-old boy and a 7-year-old girl. I have been with the family since the boy was an infant, and am well experienced with infants and toddlers. I am very reliable, sensitive, caring, warm, and loving. I am very punctual and never cancel last minute, as I understand how difficult that can be for the parent. I am also very clean and organized. I love to cook, which the family I was with really enjoyed and appreciated. I am looking for a full time position in a family that I can become a helpful & trustworthy "family" member to!

Santa Barbara$25/hr | < 1 yr experience

Hi! I am a professional runner who just moved to Santa Barbara to further my aspirations in athletics, and my career. As a graduate of California State University Chico, I have Bachelor's Degrees in both Child Development and Psychology, with a minor in Health and Wellness. I have experience working within preschool settings, and have lead and created activities in day camp settings. I have also cared for infants, toddlers, and middle-aged children, while occasionally taking care of their animals as well. I have experience working with large groups of children swimming in pools/lake, and am trained in water safety. I am interested in nannying and babysitting, because I love what I can learn from children. Throughout my experience, I have found myself intrigued by what children think about, and how smart/creative they are. When working with children, I have found it important to balance valuing a child's autonomy and independence, while keeping them safe and feeling heard.
