More About Me

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

Art and crafts, walks or bike rides, baking as well as kitchen safety, try to get them to clean up after themselves.

The most important part about being a nanny...

I like playing with the children, helping out other people, watch the children learn as they play.

My experience with special needs children...

I do not have experience working with children with special needs, however I have been dealing with my own ADHD.

The most important part about being a nanny...

There are so many of these moments but, I will tell you about my favorite three. First up would have to be when one of my girls just became a big sister and she asked when sissy could come play and move around like her. well, the day came when sissy started crawling and I hear Nanny get her away from me she is breaking my Lego tower. Another, was when I really had to go potty and right when I do so, the baby starts crying so I hurry out and see the 3 older brothers around the crib sing L O V E to little brother to go back to sleep.
Last, is when I was to take over for older sister and found all 4 of the girls asleep cuddled into each other with the oldest have the 5 Harry Potter book open across her lap and the others had fallen asleep to a movie.

Hi! I'm Georgia, a passionate and caring childcare provider with a degree in Food Systems. Nutrition and Health from the University of Washington School of Public Health! I spent a full school year nannying three wonderful young children ages 1, 2, and 5 full time, where I provided academic support, helped with homework, and made sure their days ran smoothly with consistent routines and plenty of fun! I pride myself on my strong communication with families and always keep parents updated throughout the day!

I truly love helping kids learn, grow, and feel safe, and I strive to create a warm, nurturing environment where they can thrive!
