A little bit about me
Hello! I have been nannying since I moved here in 2018 for college. I have not added every job I have worked, because some have been only for short amount of times, due to situations such as covid outbreaks and job changes. I have worked with kiddos from 0-12 and I adore every age - especially infants! I was going to Western to earn a degree in Elementary Education, but recently left the program. Working with young kids is my biggest passion. Meeting a family to connect with and become part of their family is an amazing experience. I am looking forward to hearing from you, and to see if I would be a good fit for your needs.

Hi!
My name is Levi, and I am currently pursuing a PhD in developmental psychology. I have been working with children since my teens, and it is one of my favorite things. I love being able to connect with and show care to children- I think we can learn new things from them everyday, and it is such a rewarding experience. I have experience as a special education paraprofessional to a five year old, as well as being a camp counselor in a more generalized setting with the same age group (though I have also been a more general classroom aid to older age groups). I love playing games with kids and sharing interests with them- it is so cool to be able to watch them do what they are passionate about and see their face light up with a smile while they do it.

A little bit about me
Hi! My name is Jenna Lenssen, and I’m a dependable, caring, and energetic nanny with a true passion for working with children. I have experience caring for children of various ages and always strive to create a safe, nurturing, and engaging environment where kids can thrive. I'm patient, organized, and proactive—happy to assist with daily routines, playtime, homework help, light housekeeping, and meal prep. I believe in encouraging creativity, kindness, and learning through play. I’m excited about the opportunity to support your family and provide loving care for your little ones! I recently moved to Washington from Montana, where I worked as a full-time nanny for two years, caring for four amazing kids. I am currently a part time nanny to three kids under 5- working Mondays and Wednesdays. I also recently had my first, his name is Jack, and he loves hanging out with the kiddos! I truly believe that caring for children is my calling! I would love the opportunity to meet your family!

A little bit about me
I have grown up around kids ever since I was one myself. I was raised in a large family that loves and values children, and have siblings that have had kids since I was little. I truly believe I have been blessed with the gift of a nurturing spirit, and I absolutely adore children! I have had experience watching up to 6 kids at a time (including twin babies). I would not only love to engage in fun and educational activities, but I will also cook, clean, etc. Looking for full time nanny work (40+hrs/wk) in the Snohomish County area. Open availability including weekends. Thank you!

"Very nurturing, honest and most of all, took care and loved my children and my family like her own. We truly treasured her presence in our lives."
- Genevieve
Nanny EmmaLee
"Bee has been our family babysitter since 2023. They have been a total joy to work with, very professional and adored by our kids. Bee has watched our kids on at least 10 occasions, for a few hours up to 8 hrs, and a few times with additional kids. They are extremely capable and responsible, and great at communicating. I cannot recommend Bee enough!"

"Bee watches my kids periodically. They absolutely adore Bee. Bee is seriously the best with kids. All ages. They can get my 4yr old who is a handful to follow direction perfectly. They are wonderful with hands on play time. Very good with carseat safety as well which id a big thing for me. If they cant watch my kids then I ain’t going because they're the only person I really trust to babysit."
