The most important part about being a nanny...

As a nanny I prioritize safety as the most important part of my job.
I also believe that a very important and fulfilling part of my job is supporting families as they grow and raise their little ones into confident, kind, and curious people. It is critical as a caregiver that I affirm the household expectations and boundaries with kiddos and create a cohesive and routine experience with them.

My experience with special needs children...

chronically ill 4-month-old infant + her toddler sibling (2023), Northlake UU Church Staff Teacher working with neurodivergent and disabled children [phone number hidden]), nanny of a 6-year-old autistic non-speaking kiddo [phone number hidden] years of experience babysitting children with various support and sensory needs

The most important part about being a nanny...

When faced with a consistently tricky transition for a child, I often use music or melodic intonation to help move them through the moment.
For example, I recently cared for a three-year-old who had a hard time moving from lunchtime to her nap. During lunch I introduced a rhyme to prime her into the transition: "first lunch, then potty, then book, then bed". After a few days of practice she was confident in the routine and began doing the "nap plan song" at the start of lunch and then moving calmly through the transitions with minimal prompting. I am so proud of her and am honored to have been able to help make a tricky part of the day smooth and dependable for everyone and help her feel more prepared and independent in her daily life.

Teesa R. - Seeking Work in Seattle

Part-Time Nanny Available in Seattle, WA: Teesa R.

Hi! My name is Teesa, and I'm 21 years old. I recently moved from Utah to Seattle and I'm looking for a wonderful family to work with while I continue my prerequisites to become a nurse midwife.

My childcare experience comes from teaching, church work, and babysitting. I spent a few years helping lead a children's class at my church with kids ages 3-9, and I previously taught a dance class for ages 6-10. I've also babysat for cousins, family friends, and neighbors, caring for kids of all ages except infants under 1 and teens older than 13. I also worked as a lifeguard, which taught me how to stay calm, alert, and safety-focused.

I'd describe myself as patient, gentle, responsible, and creative. I love crafts, reading, going on walks, and creating fun activities that keep kids engaged. I'm CPR certified and happy to help with tidying, meal prep, or homework. I'm excited to meet a great family and create a safe, positive environment for your kids!
