A little bit about me

During high school, I was in a Teaching Academy class which gave me the opportunity to teach at my old elementary school. I interned at the 4th grade age level and loved it. I have always loved kids because I have two younger brothers that I have cared for since they were born. Since graduating high school I pursued a degree in Elementary Education for the endorsement of K-8 & the major of Special Education. I am attending Western Washington University to get my degree. I hope that when I graduate, I will become a middle school teacher. Some other experience is that I've also helped at my local daycare. I would cook, feed, and do whatever was needed to help the provider out when she needed it. With all that I have also taught in several classrooms in Whatcom county. While doing that I also nannied several families. I have had lots of experience working with children of all ages and abilities.

More About Me

Relevant experience where I also cared for children were...

Throughout my time at Western, I have been in a classroom almost every quarter, so I have lots of experience working with all ages and abilities. Some really eye-opening experiences I have had in my time of nannying are taking care of an 8-month old with Down Syndrome, working with a 9-year-old boy with autism, as well as working with a 13-year-old girl with Prader Willi Syndrome. I really enjoy every experience I am able to have and can't wait to continue my nannying.

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

I love taking kids to the park or working with them on school work. I also enjoy reading and just letting the child use their imagination and playing along with them.

The most important part about being a nanny...

I think the most important thing is making sure the children are safe. Then making sure the children are having fun and are able to express themselves through their creativity. If parents give me the opportunity to help them learn, then I love doing that.

My experience with special needs children...

I have worked with students and children ranging from having developmental disabilities to physical/intellectual disabilities. Childcare wise I have worked with children with Down Syndrome, Prader Willi Syndrome, and Autism.

Mick R. - Seeking Work in Bellingham

Babysitter Available in Bellingham, WA: Mick R.

I'm Mick! I just graduate from college at Fairhaven, where I did an interdisciplinary degree that combined human rights, genocide studies, and women's studies, and plan to start graduate school in the UK in the Fall! In the meantime, I'm looking for some summer work.
I grew up with two younger brothers, one almost 8 years younger than me, and took care of them a lot when we were younger. I also worked with children when I was a teenager teaching dance classes. I am particularly passionate about working with neurodivergent children. I'm neurodivergent myself, and overtime, I've developed a lot of skills to improve my own mental health, something I'd be happy to talk to you more about. I love being outside, watching sports (I like the Seattle Mariners and watching Formula 1 and other kinds of racing in particular), and am always down to do something creative.
I have one cat, Mia, and I grew up with 2 dogs!

Emily S. - Seeking Work in Bellingham

Full-Time Child Care Provider Available in Bellingham, WA: Emily S.

Hi there! My name is Emily and I’m a warm, creative, and dependable 26-year-old. I graduated from Western Washington University in 2023 with my Bachelors in Early Childhood Education, and have been working with children for over six years. I first discovered my love for childcare while babysitting in high school, and after a few summers with kids I knew it was my calling.

Most of my experience is with preschoolers, though I also love caring for infants and supporting their rapid growth. I’ve worked as a full-time Preschool Lead Teacher for two years, and before that, I gained experience as both a nanny and assistant teacher. I’m CPR and First Aid certified, have an updated portable background check, and use my training in child development to connect theory with practice.

My style blends structure and fun. I enjoy reading, crafts, outdoor play, and outings, while keeping routines consistent.

Outside of work, I love kayaking, swimming, crafting, and traveling.
