A little bit about me

Hi my name is Sarah. I live in the Stadium district of Tacoma. Things of interest outside nannying include cooking, macrame, yoga, music, nature, friends and family,.

I have worked as a caregiver/ nanny/ child care provider for over 15 years and have experience with special needs children and young adults. I worked with one family for 8 years. Along with nannying I run a small side business where I teach diy craft classes (macrame, wreaths, wood crafts, and food crafts)

I realize the importance of finding the right fit for a nanny. My goal is to make your lives easier, bring fun and care into the home while keeping things clean and tidy and setting an example for the children to do so as well.

I have been practicing social distancing and keeping up on Covid requirements such as vaccines and masking when appropriate.

While I live in Tacoma I am willing to commute for the right position!

Hope to speak with you and meet your family soon!

A little bit about me

I am very caring, gentle, fun, reliable, and respectful. I want what’s best for all everyone, especially children. I love watching them explore, learn and grow. I personally love reading, books, animals and art so that’s something I encourage a lot. I have experience with all ages, children/people with different challenges. One of my many job experiences is with security, so I’m very observant and aware of safety concerns. I am CPR and first aid certified. I have my COVID vaccination. I’m going back into working with children because it’s something that I feel passionately about and it makes me happy.

A little bit about me

Hey, my name is Maliyah. I'm a child of 10 so I've been taking care of kids my whole life. I can assure that I'm qualified. While in school i helped with the kids special needs. I also look for way to improve. I take safety courses to assure what to do in any case of emergency. If you would like for your kid to be around other children or not is an option. For teens i can be considered a friend rather than a babysitter. I'm open to any and all ideas. I love helping others and being around kind people. I hope you'll take me into consideration. Thank You!!

My name is Mystique, I am currently a college student pursuing a career as a dental assistant, and I hold CPR and First Aid certifications, ensuring your child's safety is my top priority.
