A little bit about me
Hi there!
My name is Samantha Borer, I am currently a junior at Washington State University studying Elementary Education. I am a qualified nanny looking for work for the summer months. I previously worked at the Bothell Bright Horizons early education center and absolutely loved my time there! During my time there I cared for children from infancy to kinder prep on a daily basis. Prior to Bright Horizons I worked as a nanny for a family of three in Woodinville, also a family of two the next summer. I am very flexible and looking forward to finding a family that’s a great fit!

A little bit about me
Hi there! I'm a 25-year-old American artist, caregiver, teacher, friend, and babysitter! Here's a little bit about me. I've spent the last two years living in Australia and New Zealand but am now back in the USA. I'm energetic, ambitious and generally a very happy person. I was most previously working as a preschool teacher in New Zealand and absolutely loved it. I'm very eager to get back to working in a preschool! I also presently work for a New Zealand company teaching English online to students in China. I have quite a bit of experience as a caregiver and now as a teacher, so I'm very comfortable guiding both children and adults to complete tasks of all sorts. I am always sure to put creativity into my caregiving and teaching where I can. My passion for life and drive to help those around me is what motivates me as a teacher and I hope to apply all of my skills to this position soon! Hopefully, this gives you a better idea of who I am, and I look forward to hearing from you soon.

A little bit about me
Hi there! I’ve been working with kids either as a nanny or teacher for over 10 years. My favorite job I’ve had was working for a nonprofit at a middle/high school, giving kids who were struggling counsel and resources. That job made me realize I want to finish my degree and become a school counselor. I think nannying would be the perfect fit while I take these classes. I have cared for every age group. I am big on music and arts/crafts at any age! I love cooking, and I am also happy to do light housekeeping. I’m sure you’ll have many inquiries to see if I’m the right fit, so feel free to ask away!

A little bit about me
Although my professional career has taken me into management and human resources, some of my most rewarding work has been caring for children. During both college and law school I worked part-time as a private nanny for two families with multiple children. I love creating fun, engaging experiences while ensuring children feel safe, supported, and cared for. I am looking for a close to full time, or full time position with one family.

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!"
