A little bit about me
Hello!
I’m a 27 year old Master's in Social Work Student located in the Greenlake area, but willing to work anywhere in Seattle.
I am a positive, hardworking individual. I am dedicated to the children I work with, and hope to spend my career supporting children and families! I'm a former preschool and toddler teacher, a camp counselor, and have worked as a one-on-one aide to students with Autism.
I speak intermediate Spanish, I'm CPR certified, and have my own reliable transportation.
I'm looking to find a part time, ideally regular afterschool nannying gig - would be perfect for families looking for a weekly date night (or two!) and weekend care.
I love art, nature, bird watching and traveling.

"Emma was a fantastic nanny. We hired her because she had a structured background in chairs care, but the awareness and tenderness to be a full-time nanny. She built strong relationships with both my children that I still see as part of their experiences with others today. Emma is a great listener, proactive on action, and always putting the relationship and experience of the children first. We wish we could’ve kept her in our family unit longer, but life happens. She is a true gem and would recommend her to anyone wanting a best in class experience with childcare."

A little bit about me
Hello! I have a passion for music and the outdoors, and I love getting kiddos involved in nature and art projects. I play violin, guitar and ukulele. I enjoy Kayaking, hiking, cooking, camping, painting and drawing, reading and writing.
My childcare experience has been a wide range, from infants to teenagers.
I grew up on a farm in Missouri with a family of 8, so I am comfortable in chaos and cool as a cucumber in stressful situations.

"Abigail was such a joy to have. She was always on time, went above and beyond always doing more than I asked of her. My boys loved her (she came at 6 weeks old with our first) and stayed through potty training, teething and everything in between. Honest, reliable and really loves kids."

"I highly recommend Diana as a babysitter! She has worked for me in the past and was absolutely amazing. My boys loved spending time with her, and I could see how much she genuinely cared for them. Not only did she keep them safe and entertained, but they also picked up a few words in Spanish, which was such a fun bonus!
Diana was dependable, kind, and a pleasure to work with during the time we needed her. I truly appreciated her warmth and the positive energy she brought into our home. I would definitely hire her again and confidently recommend her to any family in need of a caring and responsible babysitter."
