A little bit about me
Hi, I’m Zoe! I am a current graduate student, but have spent ~5 years working at summer camps as a counselor and lifeguard, along with babysitting and teaching swim lessons. I love spending my time outside, doing crafts, playing games or watching movies! I am eager to create strong connections with the kids I look after, and strive to make our time extra fun! I am open to part-time nannying over the summer and potentially into the school year. I am first aid/cpr certified, have a car and clean driving record.

A little bit about me
Hi there! I am a mama to a energetic, fun 4yr old boy who is my little work partner. I have about 13yrs of childcare experience between babysitting at a young age, coaching various teams, working in a pediatric dental office and nannying these last 5yrs. My family loves being outdoors and biking. Being a nanny, I strive to make parents feel at ease with their child in my care and provide a loving, nurturing environment.
I have been nannying from my residence especially since most parents are working from home. The reason for this is just because I want parents to feel like they can focus and we can play without being a distraction. Our day consists of music, play based learning, going to playgrounds/parks, reading books and crafts.
I look forward to meeting you and your family!

A little bit about me
Hi there! My name is Emily and I’m a warm, creative, and dependable 26-year-old. I graduated from Western Washington University in 2023 with my Bachelors in Early Childhood Education, and have been working with children for over six years. I first discovered my love for childcare while babysitting in high school, and after a few summers with kids I knew it was my calling.
Most of my experience is with preschoolers, though I also love caring for infants and supporting their rapid growth. I’ve worked as a full-time Preschool Lead Teacher for two years, and before that, I gained experience as both a nanny and assistant teacher. I’m CPR and First Aid certified, have an updated portable background check, and use my training in child development to connect theory with practice.
My style blends structure and fun. I enjoy reading, crafts, outdoor play, and outings, while keeping routines consistent.
Outside of work, I love kayaking, swimming, crafting, and traveling.

A little bit about me
I moved to Bellingham from Seattle a little over a year ago. I’m originally from Wisconsin. I went to school at the Evergreen State College and graduated with a BS in biochemistry.
Recently, I nannied for 2 kids and meal prepped for the mother. Last summer, I worked at a kids camp (ages 5-12). I am also fully vaccinated as of 3/23/21.
Previously, I worked as an assistant teacher at a preschool for 2-3 year olds. I helped with creating and executing monthly lesson plans where there were 5 categories covered for cognitive development. Along with that, I was also a float between classrooms (ages 1-5).
Before that, I was a caregiver for a variety ages. I also have experience working with high school students.
On my free time, I love to cook, bake, bike, and enjoy working out.

Nanny Amelia
"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."
