A little bit about me

I've spent most of my life dedicated to the care of animals, seniors and children. I have experience as childcare teacher in a daycare setting working primarily with 3/4 year old children. I also spent this time working one on one with our friends whom where diagnosed with different levels of autism. I worked 10 years in a CNA position for long term care and rehabilitation. After receiving my Phlebotomy certificate I moved on to Dentistry. I received my RNA license and assisted in pediatric dentistry. After taking some personal time off to care for a family member I was blessed to become the nanny of 3 children ages 2(twins boy&girl) and 4(girl). In the year I've been with them we've accomplished potty training, talking, manners, abc's and writing, basic math, and so much more. With all our milestones I like to focus the most on building self-esteem, learning perseverance and giving them the care, support and encouragement needed to learn and grow as a happy fulfilled child.

A little bit about me

I am currently in grad school to become a school counselor. I absolutely love working with kids and feel extremely passionate about providing the best care possible for you and your family. I feel so fortunate to have over 10 years of experience working with kids ages 3 mo - 12 years old as it has given me the opportunity to work alongside all different ages of children and different styles of parenting. I feel that I already have learned so much but am committed to all the future learning to come as I know each child is unique in their own ways. I look forward to connecting with you and your family!

A little bit about me

Hi, my name is Alicia, but everybody calls me CECE I am 36 years old. I have two children of my own a 12 year old son name, Anthony and I also have a 14-year-old daughter name Raquel. I am a single parent, so I take caring for children very seriously I often find myself rather wanting to spend time with children than adults because they’re brutally honest. I am a big child at heart at the same time I have to be responsible. I have another job I work at Safeway as a manager, but considering the fact that I am a single parent of a 14 and 12 year old, I continuously need to generate more money. I hope that you would allow me to take this opportunity to help you guys out and I give you my word your children will be in the best hands I live in Port Orchard and I do have a car and I’m going to take a CPR classes and first aid. Thank you so much and I hope you have a wonderful day.

A little bit about me

I am a passionate and dedicated childcare professional from Washington, with diverse experience working with children of all ages, from infants to pre-teens. My journey began at 14 as a babysitter and evolved into a full-time nanny, where I create safe, nurturing environments that foster growth and development. I also completed an internship at Compass Montessori School, where I gained valuable insights into the Montessori method and further honed my ability to support children’s independence and learning, with certifications in CPR, First Aid, and STARS. Additionally, I volunteered as a Camp Counselor in Training at the Gig Harbor Tom Taylor YMCA, where I developed leadership, teamwork, and communication skills while deepening my passion for working with children. Alongside my childcare experience, I worked as a Barista at Starbucks, where I refined my customer service, multitasking, and problem-solving abilities in a fast-paced environment.
