A little bit about me

My friends and their kiddos call me Mama K. I am a compassionate woman who knows how to attune to the needs of others and highlight their positive attributes. I believe in respecting the truths spoken by children and in helping them find constructive ways to speak their truth.

I majored in Home Ec/Spanish in college and am a good cook and a natural teacher. I believe children need to feel capable in developmentally appropriate ways and strive to facilitate daily experiences for them to do so.


I am a mother of two beautiful and vivacious girls, who are my greatest teachers. My youngest is an old soul, a compassionate girl with wisdom and wit beyond her years. My oldest is a quiet creative who delights in comedy and scary stories. I homeschooled my girls until they began attending Tacoma Waldorf School in 2015, and they currently attend Harbor Montessori. My girls are with me 2 days per week as their father is retired and I work full-time.

A little bit about me

Hi! I'm khaliyah, I'm 26 years old and I've been nannying/ working in childcare for about 5 years now. I grew up taking care of younger family members and it inspired me to go towards an education and career in childcare. I was a Floater in a kiddie academy school working with all age children from infant to kindergarten , a pre school teacher for about 2 years until I moved up to pre K teacher, and am looking to change my career path to nanny. I have experience in montessori teaching as well as more standard ways. I love to dance, paint, build with Legos, and take nature walks with my dog Montgomery in my spare time.

A little bit about me

Hello all!! My name is Victoria and just moved back to Washington in late August after living in Hawaii on the Big Island for the last year! There, I was a full time nanny to two energetic, imaginative, great kiddos and I’m so sad our time together has ended. Since then I am working full time as a licensing and permitting agent, and have availability on the weekends or after work (4pm) for childcare. I am willing to do random baby sitting or work with a set family! I have tons of experience with children, I’ve passed security back ground checks for the DoD and I’d love to help your family in any way! Feel free to reach out.

Thanks!
