Traveled from house to house, and at times different facilities, taking care of the elderly and disabled kids as well as a previous NR EMT.

A little bit about me

Nurturing children's growth and development is a personal passion. I'm driven to provide the structure, support, and encouragement every child deserves. With 2+ years of experience caring for children aged 0-3, as well as school-aged, I'm comfortable with 2 children at a time. I'm warm, silly, easy-going, and deeply empathetic. I enjoy time outdoors, educational activities that promote learning, arts and crafts, and engaging the child's imagination! I'm also very comfortable enforcing household rules. I have some college education, First Aid Training, CPR Training, and some Early Child Development Coursework. I'm happy to help with cooking, meal preparation, and light housekeeping. I always follow the parents' preferred communication method. Knowing I can contribute to your child's happiness and well-being brings me immense joy! I'm looking for a family I can grow with as I attend school.

A little bit about me

For over seven years, I have been a leader and guide to children in my care. In 2020, I made the decision to transition from working in a childcare center to private, family-based care as a nanny. It has been a great joy for me to work one-on-one with the child in my care, tailoring my work to their specific needs. Whether through diapering, meal preparation, skill building activities, or child-led exploration, in all areas I strive to encourage my charge’s growth and development.

A little bit about me

I have 3 years of experience in child care, I started off as a nanny, working for various of families throughout a year and eventually worked for 2 separate families full time. I also worked in two different childcare centers as a toddler teacher. I had experience with children from newborn to about 3-4 years old. I love working with kids and teaching them, experiencing the world through a child’s eyes is so fascinating and rewarding. I’m from Oakland, California but moved to Seattle last fall. I love going on walks around downtown, nature, anything art related, dancing, reading and roller skating. I’m very outgoing, but also calm and patient. I love working with kids because it helps me tap into my inner child, I’m also learning along side them and its the most rewarding job I’ve ever had!
