Hello! My name is Alex and Iβm a college student studying archaeology. If your child has an interest in dinosaurs, museums, and art & crafts Iβm more than happy to nurture and facilitate that interest with my experience working in the field. I also run a pet sitting business from home with nearly 200 five star reviews on Rover! While fur babies and children are vastly different, I understand the trust, communication, and responsibility necessary to care for your most precious family members. In my youth, I babysat for my neighborhood, Iβve run museum cart tour days at San Bernardino County museum, and Iβm a proud big sis of 6 younger siblings! I like to create a fun and comfortable environment for children to express themselves while maintaining the upmost professionalism, safety, and respect with my clients. Iβm also comfortable with housekeeping tasks, ensuring your home is clean from any activities before I leave. Iβd be honored for the opportunity to be your sitter and look forward to meeting you!

Hello families! Working with children has always been a super rewarding experience for me, which is why I am entering my third summer as a residential camp counselor, where I work with kids ages 7-17. I have a clean driving record, and am CPR and first aid certified. I love doing anything outdoors (especially in this California weather!), reading, watching movies, and playing games. I have always been described as being very responsible, patient, organized, and helpful. I am more than happy to help with date nights, after school care, and anything else I can fit around my class schedule. Looking forward to meeting you!!

Hi! My name is Bailey and I am a sophomore at Cal Poly. Cal Poly was my top choice school and it still feels like a dream to get to wake up here each day. I continue to discover new amazing things about the SLO community and my love grows more and more for this beautiful city I get to call home. My hometown is Ventura/Ojai and I feel extra fortunate to be close to my family while away at college!I have experience working in a Montessori childcare with toddler and preschool aged children, as well as a summer camp with elementary school children. I love the opportunity to be creative- whether we are making art, inventing imaginative games inside, exploring backyards or parks and everything in between! There is nothing better than a childβs imagination being able to run free in my opinion. In my free time I am usually reading, hiking, doing yoga/pilates, or anything that lets me be outdoors. I love all animals (especially dogs!) but truly all animals- big and small. I am looking forward to connecting with a few families either for consistent childcare needs or on an as needed basis. I love being a part of childβs world to celebrate their victories and share their curiosities is truly a gift π

Hi! Iβm a recent college graduate and a retired college athlete with years of hands-on childcare experience. Throughout college, I regularly babysat for families with children of all ages, balancing responsibility, fun, and safety. As the oldest of four siblings, caring for kids has always been a natural part of my life, from helping with homework to keeping everyone entertained and on schedule. I genuinely love working with children and creating a positive, supportive environment where they feel safe, happy, and cared for. Parents can trust that their kids are in reliable, energetic, and patient hands with me!
