A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Sophia, I’m 21 years old and I’m looking to become a part time nanny beginning in early September. I have been with my current family for the past 11 months and unfortunately our time is coming to an end with them moving into full time daycare. I absolutely adore children, I have Nannied for multiple families so I have references and I am fully vaccinated. I am more than willing to take cpr classes and get certified, although I do have some knowledge and experience on giving cpr and first aid. I have a valid drivers license with reliable transportation and clean driving record. I will be available Monday-Thursday as of September 3rd. I am a licensed cosmetologist as well and the other days of the week I’ll be in the salon!

More About Me

Relevant experience where I also cared for children were...

I have been taking care of the same Child since October of 2025. She was just 2 months when I started watching her and now she’s a little over a year old! It has been an incredibly rewarding journey getting to watch her grow week by week. Witnessing every mile stone and seeing her brain develop has been an honor to watch and help with. Even when her routine shifts I still know all of her signals and habits very well, making things a bit easier when going through phases like teething. Now that she’s older we have the best giggle parties, play with toys, sing songs, and learn new things from books and me teaching them!

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

I love to keep kids off screens and exercise their brain and creativity by playing puzzles, coloring, or make believe, to work their imagination. I’m a very outdoorsy person so spending time outside by going to parks, using chalk, playing sports, or going on walks/bike rides are some activities I enjoy doing with children. When it’s time to wind down I’m a great storyteller and love to read books!

The most important part about being a nanny...

The most important part of being a nanny is having patience and truly understanding who this little being you’re taking care of is. Seeing their patterns and reactions is so important in order to understand them. One of the biggest things though is trust! I do whatever I can to make me and the child’s relationship special so they don’t feel afraid and think of me as a friend, while still understanding that I enforce their rules.

My experience with special needs children...

I have dealt with multiple children that have autism, adhd, and behavioral issues and I have found that every experience is new and different. I’ve always had a great experience and love learning about special needs and how it affects the child but most importantly how to maturely and kindly navigate their struggles. It’s always important to be patient and understand how the child is feeling in order to connect with them!

The most important part about being a nanny...

My favorite moments nannying is watching children become more independent and grow into their own personality. Watching their trials and fails up until the day of success is so exhilarating and just warms my heart to see these little humans navigate such a big world and to see the smiles on their faces from being proud of themselves is just the cherry on top!

Part-Time Child Care Provider Available in Bellingham, WA: Rebecca H.

I have been a nanny for five years and before that I was a toddler and PreK teacher at a preschool. I have just finished my Early Childhood Education Certificate and value the learning and development that occurs during the early years of a child’s life. I believe that creating a comforting relationship is what sets the child up for success. I also believe that children learn more through daily activities such as play and exploration. I value creating an environment where their interests are included and their needs are met.

Outside of work I enjoy being in nature, crafting, and reading.
