A little bit about me

I am super passionate about working with kids, especially babies. I have worked with all ages of kids, and kids with special needs. My grandma used me as her main sitter for her multiple foster adopts, who had many behavioral and emotional problems.

I have worked with kids since I was around 8, but I have been getting more serious recently. I currently volunteer at an elementary school once a week, as well as watching my baby cousin. Looking for a full time job for the summer, maybe leading to something part time during the school year.

A little bit about me

Hi ! I’m Miyeko, I’m a big kid at heart so taking care of little ones is a true passion of mine. Crafts are always my go to but next to that is cooking, I see cooking as a tasty science experiment and I love seeing kids try new things that seem different to them. I am born & raised in Tacoma Wa, I’m a very good tutor I try to make learning fun & something that they will be able to remember and really grasp. I’m quick on my feet and very reliable and understanding. Aside from nannying I also take care of my grandmother which I’ve been doing since about 2017 and I really enjoy that as well. I hope to create a genuine bond with the children & family as a whole and hoping to see what the future looks like !
