A little bit about me
I love bringing a fun energy into my job and I have many skills and hobbies that I can integrate as well (musically, sports, socially, educationally, etc). I’m currently a senior at University of Washington Bothell and a mother to my 3 year old son who has year-long full-time enrollment in school; allowing me to have some flexibility in my hours. Looking for a job I can incorporate my happiness and fun through, but also encourage a healthy development of these crucial years of childhood.

A little bit about me
Hi! I have been working in childcare since I was 13! I started volunteering at my local childcare centers during summer camps and babysitting for neighbors and family members. I eventually dove into the childcare world as an enrichment teacher with the company Launch in Seattle then COVID hit so I had to change jobs and I ended up working at Home Depot for a year until I joined my team at Hilltop Children’s Center, also in Seattle. I took a year off to do nannying full time and I miss it! I work with a before and after school program at the moment but hopefully I can find a family for long term! I love making connections with the kiddos as well as you, the parents! I know that trusting a stranger with your child can be nerve racking, especially after a pandemic, I am here to earn your entire family's trust and love your kiddos as much as you love them. I love to dance and do fun messy experiments! I love the outdoors so hopefully we can go on walks! I can’t wait to get to know yall!

Recent reference
"Grey would make a great asset to any family. He is caring, empathetic, responsible, and dependable.
Grey has a great sense of anticipating what needs to be done, and executing with minimal direction. He is timely and responsible. He has great natural common sense, that not everyone is able to have.
My family grew attached to Grey during his services. He listens to others well and responds appropriately with empathy. He follows a schedule and when it needs altered due to unforeseen circumstances, he is able to redirect smoothly.
Grey communicates well verbally, in writing, and in electronic communications. He is prompt to respond when we contact him.
I appreciate Grey's natural ability to care for others as well as maintain structure and organization.
He also is a great cook and helps keep the house clean and tidy.
It has been our pleasure to know Grey over the past year and wish him much success in his future endeavors."

Nanny Amy
"Amy made a natural connection quickly with our 4 year old son and has been our go-to babysitter for 1 year and a half now. She engages with him and keeps him well entertained. He is not quick to trust new people, so we were ready for her to be challenged. She handled him very well. She is trustworthy and takes her job seriously. We recommend her to everyone!"
- Sonya
Nanny Amy
"I am still working with Amy but I wanted to let everyone know how highly I would recommend her. She has done overnights with my 3 year old special needs son, and then took care of my one week old baby over multiple overnights when I had to unexpectedly go back to the hospital - she handled everything perfectly and is the only one I trust with kids now!"
