Find an after school nanny in Bainbridge Island, WA

Hi - My name is Emily and I’m currently a sophomore student at the University of Washington. I am offering child care and pet care. My most recent babysitting experience was for a family friend’s toddler for about a year periodically. I also have a younger brother who is 6 years old who I spent a majority of my time babysitting as he grew up. I feel as though I have a good amount of experience in each stage and age. I am very adaptable and a quick learner to accurately adjust to each child I babysit and meet parent expectations. I grew up owning multiple dogs and most recently a cat. I love animals and am capable of checking up on them and assuring their necessities are met.

Nurturing children and witnessing their growth has always been a passion of mine. My positive experiences babysitting led me to pursue three years of professional childcare. I hold a graduate degree and am a certified teacher with First Aid Training and CPR Training. I enjoy playing outdoor sports, board games, and educational games with children of all ages (0-12+). I am comfortable caring for up to three children. I am patient, creative, and friendly. I am also very comfortable enforcing household rules. I communicate with parents using their preferred method, providing regular updates. I am happy to assist with cooking, light housekeeping, carpooling, travel, and swimming supervision. Speaking English, Portuguese, and Spanish allows me to connect with more families. I am eager to bring my skills and enthusiasm to your family and help your children thrive.

I have been caring for children most of my life. I was a nanny while in high school and have a lot of nieces and nephews that I have cared for including overnight stays. I have three dogs of my own and have fostered 5 cats within the last two years. I have cared for seniors, including an elderly woman with Alzheimer's disease. I am an outgoing person who enjoys getting to know people and animals. I like to be helpful and am willing to do household chores and outside tasks that need to be taken care of. I am honest, reliable, respectful, creative, and fun!
