About Marita
Experience: 10 yrs
COVID-19 vaccinated
Hi Moms and Dads! Thank you visiting my profile! I was born and raised in San Diego and I'm the oldest of 3 girls. I'm a dependable, energetic, and loving babysitter with 15+ years of experience providing exceptional care to children of all ages, from newborns to teenagers. I'm skilled in managing multiple children, coordinating activities, and providing reliable support for busy families. I enjoy engaging with kids in creative, fun, and educational ways. I have experience working with kids as a camp counselor, soccer referee and lifeguard. I like playing with kids outside, doing arts and crafts, playing board games, baking, swimming, going on fun outings, and more! I graduated with honors in journalism from the University of Oregon in 2014 and then moved back to San Diego. I'm CPR/First Aid certified, I'm fully vaccinated, I do not smoke, I have my own car, I'm comfortable with pets, and I have a clear background check from August 2024. I'd also be happy to provide references!

The excitement on my kids' faces when Marita comes over says it all. From the first time she came (on very short notice!) I knew she was one of the good ones. The best thing about Marita is the way she truly engages with my kids. She puts time and effort into getting to know them and really gets on their level and plays. She has taken my kids to do fun things like visiting the fire station, the train museum, the playground, and stops for a treat on the way home. At home she engages them in crafts, puzzles, games, and whatever else they want to do. She is patient, kind, thoughtful, trustworthy and warm and just a pleasure to be around. She feeds them a good meal and snacks and sits with them while they eat! She is thorough when it comes to their cleanliness and well being. She is always on time and checks in the day before to confirm timing and is always cleans up/helps around the house during down time. Anyone would be lucky to have Marita watch their kiddos.
