A little bit about me
Hi there! I am a long-time resident of the pnw and a lifelong lover of all things outdoors, moving to the Seattle Area in March! I've had the pleasure of nannying on and off for 8 years with up to five children at a time. In the past, I've also spent time as a Camp Counselor, an orphanage nanny, a volunteer at the MaryBridge Children's Hospital, and a volunteer music teacher. I am CPR and First Aid certified and have nannied four newborns into their early toddler years. I'm a proud auntie of three little boys and graduated in 2021 from Western Washington University with a BA in Communications and a BA in Political Science. I am currently a nanny for a darling 9 month old but will be moving to the Seattle area in march for my husband's job. I'm vaxed, boosted, and would love to chat!

A little bit about me
Hello My name is Zainab! I have been working as a nanny and child care provider for a little over 4 years now. I am also currently working a home Daycare in Des Moines, WA, which i really love. I am fluent in English and Somali. I am also going to school for Business Technology and to teach outside the country. I truly believe that it does take a village to rise a child in order for that child to grow in a safe, and loving environment. I believe it’s crucial for not only the child, but for the parents as well.
