A little bit about me
Into the wild and could benefit from some energetically appropriate, ethical, on site live-in household ssistance? Hello and thank you for considering me as I am available to arrive in your household as early as September 21 and can stay as long as necessary :) I have lived in O'ahu, Hawai'i predominantly as a professional LIVE IN nanny who was PRIMARILY an after-school tutor because I have a Bachelor of Arts degree from UCLA and a Master's Degree in the Healing Arts which makes me super mellow, clean, and peaceful. Now I am relocating to Bellingham, Washington as of August 13, and am excited to begin life anew. I am a devotee of Vipassana Meditation (www.dhamma.org), the global movement which strictly adheres to silence / tranquility, vegetarianism, and celibacy. I also have published three #1 international bestsellers on health and wellness. Finally I have won multiple major awards as an environmentalist. All these facts are verifiable online. You wouldn't be just moving a nanny into your home, you would have a steward of the environment with a spiritual slant. Kindly email me for my full resume with numerous references to book me as I don't always receive phone reception. Unless I am at your place :) so you can relax about that, because I prefer a full time live in position, which would not require the hourly rate. We could have a housing exchange for nannying. Thank you, for your consideration. Namaste.

A little bit about me
Hello! I am an experienced babysitter/nanny with CPR and First Aid Certification who is looking for a part-time job in the Bellingham area. I genuinely enjoy working with kids of all ages (primarily up to 12 years old) and getting to connect with them through their hobbies and interests. My objective is to always guarantee a safe and encouraging environment while I am working with children, while also making sure I am meeting the needs of each family. I am a Western Washington University student who lives on campus and has a very flexible class schedule, with consistent availability after 12:00pm on weekdays, as well as weekend availability. I am responsible, patient, and dependable, and I always strive to make children feel comfortable, supported, and cared for. I would love the opportunity to get to know your family and become someone you can rely on for your childcare needs.

A little bit about me
I am currently attending Woodring College of Education, entering my second-to-last year. Right now, I’m working at a childcare and learning center in Bellingham, WA, where I have the opportunity to work with children of different ages, personalities, and developmental stages. Working with children is something I am genuinely passionate about, and my experience in childcare, along with my education, has only strengthened my desire to pursue a career working with and supporting children. I would describe myself as caring, patient, responsible, dependable, and enthusiastic. I believe that every child is unique and deserves to be treated with kindness, respect, and understanding. I enjoy getting to know each child individually, learning about their interests and personalities, and finding ways to make our time together fun, engaging, and meaningful.
