A little bit about me

Hello! I currently work at the Veterans Hospital in Lakewood, WA. Mon - Tues but I telework Wed-Fri. I do need another job because i need spending money lol BUT! nevertheless although I will get paid to watch your kids i don't get paid for loving them.

I have a 4 yr old adopted brother who i am basically raising for free. I am also a Christian, on Sunday's and Wednesdays for church service I am usually assigned as a teacher for the babies/ kids under 4 so hopefully that counts as experience. If you have any questions or concerns please reach out.

Thank you! :)

A little bit about me

I could be a nanny because I naturally connect with children and genuinely enjoy caring for them. I’m patient, responsible, and attentive, always making sure kids feel safe, heard, and supported. Whether it’s helping with homework, planning fun activities, or just being a steady presence, I bring warmth and structure to any home. Being a nanny isn’t just a job to me, it’s a role I take seriously with a lot of heart.

A little bit about me

My name is Angelina, I love people and animals. I’ve spent most of my career in a caretaker position. I moved to the corporate side and found that the lake of interaction with people wasn’t for me. I love caring for children helping them grow learn and enjoy life. I work hard and I’m willing to learn the needs required to care for those I work with.
