A little bit about me

Hello! My name is Jose Camacho and I am a second year at UCSD majoring in Electrical Engineering. I have experience in taking care of children as I am the oldest of 2 siblings, where I spent most of my time taking care of them when my family isn’t around. I also help around in taking care of other family members when I have spare time. I believe in helping out others as much as I can so they can concentrate on their work so doing babysitting is a great way to help people concentrate on work or take some time off with their loved ones. It’s nice to meet you.

A little bit about me

Hey!!! My name is Mylie and I’ll be a student at USD this fall. I have lots of nanny and babysitting experience, and have also worked as a gymnastics coach and tutor for kids.

I’m looking for work during the school year starting September 1st! I have my own car that I can drive your kids with and am looking to do some after school care. Preferably 10-15 hours a week (Aprox 2pm-6pm are open hours for me). I can do after school pickup, drop off at school activities, homework help, and snack time!

I love being with kids, and super extroverted, love hearing all about their day, and keeping them entertained. I absolutely love getting to know the families that I work with and becoming part of one.

My rate is $25 an hour as well as some gas compensation depending on the amount of driving needed!

Please please reach out to me and I’d love to tell you some more about myself! I’m willing to drive 20 mins from USD, serving mainly Linda Vista and Mission Valley areas.

A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Mayra. I'm 33 years old I'm from Bogotá, Colombia I love share time with kids I'm a single mom of a beautiful girl. She is 9 years old and She's my biggest expirience about caring child I need to add that in my country is very common that We help each other in family caring babies so I used to share a lot of time with my nephews and nieces. I consider that expiriences part of my habilites now for this kind of job. I'm a photographer and use to work in media and film a pretty fun job with longs hours of work each day so I decide change just to have more time and found new experiences. I love cook. I don't smoke.
Honestly for me kids are masters that come to teach us the meaning of life that We just start to forget when get adults. So be close to kids is an opportunity to connect with our innocent side and learn about the simplicity of life.
