A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Emma, and I’m a caring, fun-loving nanny with 3 years of professional childcare experience and over 10 years of hands-on experience helping care for children of all ages. I genuinely love working with kids and take pride in creating a safe, nurturing, and engaging environment where they can thrive.

I’m patient, reliable, and attentive, and I believe in balancing structure with fun. I enjoy planning age-appropriate activities like arts and crafts, outdoor play, reading, and learning games that support children’s development while keeping them happy and active. I also value open communication with parents and work hard to build trusting, long-term relationships. I am excited about the opportunity to make a positive impact on your child's day!

As for availability, I am currently a full-time research assistant at Rady Children's Hospital and am seeking a part-time position. I am available on weekdays after 4 PM and anytime on the weekends.

A little bit about me

Hi families!

My name is Erica, and I’m currently offering babysitting/nannying! I have full availabilities on Mondays, Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays so I’m hoping to fill in those gaps. I’d be happy to step in for mornings or evenings.

I love working with kids and I have over 7 years of experience caring for children from infants through age 11. I’ve worked as an Engish tutor and gymnastics camp counselor in the past as well. I take a no screen approach and love to keep kids engaged with play and activities. In my free time, I enjoy biking, reading, and baking.
I’m CPR and First Aid certified for infants, kids, and adults. My rate starts at $20/hour (depending on age and number of children.) I would be happy to share references. I’m located in central San Diego but willing to drive to you.

I’m excited to meet some new families, reach out anytime!

Hi! My name is Alana, and nurturing young minds is truly my passion! I am dedicated to supporting families by providing loving, reliable, and enriching care that encourages growth, learning, and joy.

From exploring the outdoors and playing educational games to doing hands‑on activities that spark curiosity, I strive to create a safe and nurturing space where children can thrive. I am comfortable caring for children ages 0–10, with a special focus on the 1–5 age range.

I am CPR and First Aid trained, and I am excited for the opportunity to bring my experience, warmth, and enthusiasm to your family.

A little bit about me

My name is KayLeigh and I am about to turn 21 years old this summer. I am currently going to school at UC San Diego, I’m majoring in human biology with plans to become a nurse and I also play on the softball team. My mom runs a full time daycare out of our home so I am constantly around kids and enjoy it. She does not work on weekends so a lot of the time I will watch the kids for their parents, sometimes overnight.
