A little bit about me

Hi my name is Autumn. I have been nannying since I was 18 years old so for 5 years now. I have also been working in childcare since the age of 16. Kiddos are a passion of mine and I love to nannying because of the smaller ratios of children and the allowance for more individual interaction.

A little bit about me

Hello!
I'm Mariem, I've been nannying for years for various families here and there. I am state CPR/First Aide certified and I accept DSHS. I am also background checked by the state of Washington.
A bit about myself:
I'm currently in college and will graduate with my business degree in Spring 2022. I'm also a stay at home mom to my beautifu daughter (15 months) who I would be bringing with me while nannying. I'm a huge advocate for keeping the kids interactive and not sticking them in front of screens all day; reading, arts and crafts, and spending time outdoors are some of the few things I do to keep kiddos entertained and active. I love hanging out with kids and always do my best to be a friend and a trusted adult.
Since I am a student, it would be important that I am allowed time to do homework if necessary; this would only be a necessity if I will be in your home for more than 5 hours per day, and only within an ample time (kids napping, quiet time, drawing time, etc. etc.)

A little bit about me

Hello! My name is Liv, and growing up I was a babysitter for much of my teen years, I've worked in after school care, and I helped as a pseudo-parent to my much younger sister. All this has given me a lot of experience with a wide variety of kids, and I think at every age and stage there's something great. As a nanny, I hope to be a consistent, positive influence in a child's life, someone they can trust, who also supports the parent's lead in care for their child. I look forward to getting to know each child's unique personality and interests that I work with, and doing what I can to help them thrive and grow!

*If my profile shows that I am not certified in CPR/First Aid, I am in the process of getting re-certified. I do take health and safety seriously, and I am happy to field questions on my timeline for re-certification.

A little bit about me

Hi, my name is Rachel, I was a live-in nanny for 2 different families in my 20’s. I was with each family for 2yrs and created a special bond with not only the children but the entire family. I met my husband and became a stepmother to 2 amazing girls. I entered the corporate world to provide for my family but always yearned to get back into childcare. My girls are now grown (21 & 18) and I’m stepping back into doing what I’ve always loved to do. I’m enrolled in a Postpartum Doula training and have been caring for a 2yr old boy once a week for the last couple months. I’m CPR, First Aid Certified and have my own transportation.

I’m looking to provide childcare, light housekeeping or errands as needed. I will come to your home to care for your child.
