A little bit about me

Hello all! I am a professional nanny looking for a new family to work with after my move to Tacoma. I have worked as a nanny for 6+ years, and have experience with many ages from infants to tweens! I am a former preschool teacher, and I am currently studying to become an infant and child sleep specialist, which I am very enthusiastic about :)
I am passionate about early childhood education, and giving kids access art and nature. I am infant/child CPR certified and Positive Discipline certified (and if you are unfamiliar with positive discipline, it is not discipline! It’s a very gentle, compassionate approach to parenting/teaching). Please reach out if you are interested in working with me, and we can discuss rates and timelines. Thank you!

A little bit about me

Hi, my name is Holly and I have 10 years of experience working with children of all ages. I believe in creating a fun, stimulating and safe environment for children to thrive. I'm particularly skilled at helping children with their social and emotional needs. I'm also CPR and first aid certified. I recently had the opportunity to be a stepmother to three children over the past 7 years which taught me so much more about being compassionate and caring during instrumental ages. I'm looking forward to joining your family and helping your child grow and learn.
--Also willing to do side day by day babysitting if need please feel free to message for availability for specific days

A little bit about me

Hi there! I am passionate about supporting special needs kiddos and have training in crisis intervention as well as a background in high support-needs behavior intervention. Based on my experience, I can provide specialized care for neurodivergent individuals and families with a wide variety of tools and an approach that sees every individual as unique. I am hoping to pursue a degree in neuroscience to further support my desire to work in disability advocacy spaces, and am excited to work as a team with my next nanny family!
