A little bit about me
Hi! My name's Julia, I'm 21 and currently a psychology major at UW. I'm originally from Spain and speak both English and Spanish fluently.
I'm a positive, reliable, active and energetic person with more than 2 years of experience with kids, comfortable taking care of kids of all ages. I have the most experience with toddlers and pre-teens. I will make sure that your kids get the appropriate care and are in a safe space; for me, they are not only someone to take care of and respect, but to learn from and assist in the exciting life-long process that is growing. I consider myself resilient, responsible and organized, but also fun and outgoing. I understand that kiddos need the best of both worlds, so I will provide a supervised and safe environment for them, as well as a creative and playful one.

A little bit about me
Hello! My name is Regan and I have loved working with children for more than a decade. I started independently in 2016 after I graduated high school and eventually became a live-in nanny for the family I was working with after homeschooling their three children for a period of eight years. I have more than a decade of experience in early childhood education as well as working with special needs children. I have worked with children with autism for most of my career. The most important thing for me is ensuring all children are supported with love, care, and compassion. Education and empathy are qualities I strive to instill in all my practices.

A little bit about me
I've been a nanny consistently for about 6 years now, but babysat regularly beforehand for about 7 years. I have experience with a wide age range from infant - teenager. I've worked with disabled/special needs children as well. All of my previous families have become family to me so I see nannying as much more than just a job. I love it because I love working with and being around children, helping them grow and learn in their day to day lives. I'm a very creative/artistic person as well so I love setting up arts and crafts, painting, and coloring. I'm very attentive and detail oriented and learn quickly. I make sure all of the child's needs are met as well as the needs of the home. I'm willing to cook, clean, and meal prep, along with homework help if needed. I am CPR certified for all ages including infants!

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!"

Nanny Alexis
