A little bit about me

I’m a Minnesota native looking for a live-in nanny position in a warmer climate! While in high school, I received my CNA and worked on a memory care unit in a nursing home. After attending the College of St. Benedict, I started working as a live-in PCA/Nanny for a special needs child. I’ve worked in childcare settings off and on for the past two decades, and have taken continuing ed courses in Children’s Mental Health. I have two grown boys of my own, both with minor mental health challenges. My experiences have taught me how to be loving, patient, and supportive. I live a lifestyle free of alcohol and other non-prescribed substances, but I don’t judge others who choose a different path. I’m a multitalented creative individual and love teaching and doing fun activities with kids! I do have a well behaved 5 year old Catahoula Leopard Dog that I am very bonded with, and require a family who is open to him residing with me in a live-in position. He loves kids and is a great therapy dog.

The most important part about being a nanny...

The young boy I was a live-in PCA & Nanny for in the 90s had ASD. Every evening his mom allowed us to have “movie time” and every single night, he chose The Lion King! Both him and I knew the entire soundtrack. He was mostly non-verbal, but I would sing to him and he would hum along to the music. It was a special bonding experience for us both and a memory I will cherish forever.

Jenna M. - Seeking Work in San Diego

Part-Time Child Care Provider Available in San Diego, CA: Jenna M.

Hi there! I am a mom to four wonderful children, so I know firsthand that raising a family is the most rewarding—and challenging—job in the world. Because of this, I know exactly what parents need: a trustworthy partner who treats their children like their own.

My background is a bit unique! While I have many years of experience as a nanny and caregiver, I spent the last three years working at a children’s hospital. Before that, I was a newborn hearing screener. These roles have given me a special expertise in infant care and early childhood development. I am very comfortable with newborns and have a "baby whisperer" touch that comes from both mothering four children and professionally screening hundreds of newborns.

I am looking for a family where I can provide reliability, warmth, and expert care. Whether it’s helping a toddler hit a milestone, soothing a fussy newborn, or just keeping the household running smoothly while you are at work, I am here to help.

Hello! My name is Bri, I am 29 and currently live in the North Park area. I started working in early childhood education when I was in high school and continued that career until 2020.

In the summer of 2020, one of the families I worked for offered me a full time live in nanny position, which I accepted.

Heidi N. - Seeking Work in San Diego

Full-Time Nanny Available in San Diego, CA: Heidi N.

Hi! I am reliable, trustworthy and organized individual. I went to Indiana University to study Elementary Education to further educate myself on young children. I started babysitting when I was 13yr and continued to nanny/babysit through college. A job that sticks out to me the most was during COVID. The ages were 3 months, 4 and 6. I was working 5 days a week cooking, cleaning, laundry, were jobs expected. I followed this family when they moved from Chicago to San Diego to help assist with the move and take care of the children. I believe my best trait is that I absolutely adore children. I have learned a lot through the years and continue to strive to provide children and families with a safe, fun and healthy environment.
