A little bit about me

Hello my name is Hailey, I’ve just recently graduated high-school and I’m trying to find a part-time summer job before leaving for college. I love caring for children and I have lots of experience doing so through my church as well as babysitting. I am always happy to help entertain and engage a child who may need a little extra care and I always respect a parent’s requests to do so in a manner that they believe suitable. I am willing to work early mornings as well as odd times. I look forward to meeting you and your young ones!

A little bit about me

Hello there! I am a cheerful and positive child care giver with over 10+ years experience with infants, toddlers, preschool, ECAP, pre-kin, AND school age! During my time at Eastern Washington University I worked at a childcare center so I am CPR/First Aid certified, and completed multiple trainings (such as safe sleep and teaching trainings). At the childcare center I worked alone with seven 2 year olds at once. I graduated from EWU in Fall 2020 with a B.S. in Health Psychology.

I do have a reliable car and I am 27 years old. I have a 4 month old daughter who would need to come with me, or would need the kiddo(s) brought to my residence. I can work Mon-Fri. Looking for a part-time nanny position. I look forward to hearing from you!

A little bit about me

Hello! My name is Sky (she/her). Since moving to Washington in 2024, I've maintained contracted employment with local public schools, but I am now looking to change pace with a return to a nanny position. Prior to 2024, I was a full-time nanny for a wonderful family for 4 years. Prior to that, I worked in mental health and education with children and young adults. I have truly enjoyed helping families to continue providing their children with the love and care they need while giving the parents the opportunity to focus on their careers or other ventures outside of parenting. I believe in helping families to achieve this important balance, and I'd be happy to discuss your families needs.

The family I previously nannied for has graciously offered to provide a reference to anyone who feels I may be a good fit for their needs.

A little bit about me

Hello! My name is Bridget. I am a joyful, creative, and loving person. I have my elementary education certificate for K-8 but have found I am most delighted by early childhood, especially ages 6mo-4yrs.
As a nanny, I am very communicative with text and in person updates. I have worked mostly with work-from-home parents and enjoy a dynamic that feels friendly and comfortable.
I enjoy cleaning the kitchen and folding laundry during naptimes, and am open to many other tasks you may have for me.
As a cat person, I am biased towards feline friends but don’t mind if you have dogs.
I have a clean driving record and a safe vehicle. I love to go out to the library, parks, and walks.
It is vulnerable and a big act of trust to choose a nanny to take care of your beloved child, and I will always prioritize your child’s safety, comfort, and happiness. Thank you for your consideration as you choose the best nanny for your child!
