A little bit about me
Hi there, I'm Karla from Ecuador, I'm 29 years old and I'm a former au pair, I've been working for an amazing family for 1 year and a half, now kids are starting school so I'm looking for a new family to work for. I have 5 years of experience with kids 6 mo. till 9 yo but mostly I've worked with toddlers. I started working with kids when I was in college as part of my student schedule, I worked in a kinder Garten for few months before to come to the States and I did child care as part of my au pair training as well. I'm very active and sportive, I like to take the kids in outdoor activities and places. My strengths are patience, kindness and strong minded, but I'm very sensitive and empathic at the same time. I'm a strong driver (11 years of experience) Also I'm CPR certificated, and good swimmer.

A little bit about me
My name is Helena and taking care of children brings me so much joy! I am currently seeking a full-time nanny position. I would love to find a long-term, full-time nanny position with a family that is a great fit. After spending some time pursuing real estate, I realized that working with children is my true passion and I'm so excited to devote all my time to it.
I have 5+ years of experience in childcare with children ranging from 2 months - 10 years. I am Red Cross Certified in Pediatric CPR and First Aid. I am a college graduate and have completed relevant courses in Psychology, Human Development, and Counseling Techniques. I am more than happy to grocery shop, run errands, meal prep, and help with laundry and cleaning around the house.
I am a patient, loving, and enthusiastic nanny. With the kids I take care of, I love listening to music, dancing, doing crafts, playing outside, going to the playground, etc.
Looking forward to connecting!

A little bit about me
I am 25 years old and I live in Encinitas. My main job workload permits me extra time and I want to fill that with doing things that I love. I have been nannying since I was a little girl. I am innately a caregiver and get along with children very easily. I come from a family of five other brothers and sisters. My mom used to keep me home from school somedays when she was overwhelmed because I was always such a good helper. Some things never change! I am very OCD and will leave everything better than I found it. I look forward to letting you know more about me!

A little bit about me
Hello! I moved Into San Diego in 2019, from the east coast and I’ll be moving to mission bay in two weeks. I run an online health and wellness coaching business, that I’ve done for about four years. But due to Covid, I was laid off from my other full time job in March 2020, working with a property management company. I’ll be looking for around 30 hours a week of work, starting in the late summer to early fall of 2021. I graduated from Virginia Tech with a communications major in 2015. And I have a golden retriever that I love! I worked as a nanny for a few months, in the military community when I lived In Jacksonville, Florida. I was home with the 3 year old during the day, cooking meals, playing and helping around the apartment with her and the dog. Then in the afternoon I’d pick the 6 year old up from school. I’m very clean and organized and enjoy cooking and being outside. I cant wait to meet you!

Hello! My name is Emillie Urbino, I’m 25 and very new to the San Diego area. I grew up in Santa Monica California, went on to attend the university of oregon, did a short stint in Chicago for an internship, and am now looking to more permanently lay roots here back in my home of Southern California. I have been watching children independently for a decade, have ample training, experience, and absolutely love contributing to a wonderful family. My degree is in political science and I’m at crossroads to do more school (law school or to continue to do my best looking for work in the public sector.) my COVID-19 exposure is v minimal because my boyfriend works from home and I have no other roommates. My driving record and background check are squeaky clean and I am open to giving you any and all personal information. I love working with children, i always have found it so educational and enjoyable. Thank you so much for your time and consideration. I look forward to hearing from you!

Nanny Hanna
"Hanna had a warm and patient approach to connect with the children of different ages.
She was supportive and encouraging of each student and trying to help them learn, interact, and build confidence.
I believe her skills and conduct will transfer well into a nanny position."

Nanny Sofi
"My kids love Sofi! Sofi is the kindest and sweetest. She helped with my kids while I had to work. I was nervous at first finding someone to trust with my kids but soon realized I had nothing to worry about with Sofi. She stared with our family when my kids were 4, 6 and 9. She formed relationships with each of my kids and took such good care for them. I highly recommend Sofi!!"
