Booked by 3 families in Federal Way, WA

Hi, My name is Griselda, I worked at Easter Seals Angle Lake Child Development Center as a teacher's assistant while I was studying child development in Green River College. I am CPR and First Aid certified. I love taking care of babies and children. I encourage learning through playing, exploring, and music. I enjoy reading to babies and children in Spanish and English. I can pick children up from school and drive them to after school activities. I like to go with babies and children to the library and the park. I help children with their homework and reading. My goal as a nanny is to help babies and children grow physically, intellectually, socially and emotionally. I do this by providing a safe and nurturing environment and planning daily fun educational activities for them. Thanks Griselda M.

Emily $22 per hour for 1 child

Hi there! My name is Em, and I am an experienced, compassionate, and energy-loving individual who is dedicated to the world of childcare and development. With a background in child development and theater, I aspire to provide the space our children need to grow confidently, blending knowledge and teaching moments with silliness and empathy. I had the privilege to practice exactly this in my year-long experience at The Little Gym, where I worked as an instructor for ages ranging from 1-12. My specific experience lies primarily in ages 1-5, as I taught the classes involved with parents learning alongside their kiddos, as well as the independent preschool classes. Never a dull moment in these classes! We were always on our feet, learning with our bodies and brains simultaneously. My passion lies in child development, meaning that I am aware and understanding of the varying levels and differing needs of every child, no matter the age. I can identify and apply my knowledge of development and education to a wide variety of scenarios, whether it be tailoring a meal plan for our picky 2-year-old, (I cook too!) or developing a homework system together with our curious 3rd grader. I believe myself to be particularly skilled in allowing children to feel listened to and seen, ESPECIALLY in tough moments involving big emotions. On top of this, I also come with the skills of activity-planning, culinary arts, crafts, and my certifications in First Aid and CPR. I also feel it’s important to mention that I have specific knowledge and skills in children with special needs, as I was raised alongside a brother with severe ASD and grew to be very familiar with what it looks like and the special care it requires. Above everything, it is most important to me that you know that I deeply care about our kids and that there is nothing I want more than for you to feel comfortable with who you’re leaving to care for your little ones. I want you to step out that front door feeling confident that you’re in safe hands. No matter if your kiddo is at the stage where they’ve just recently made the miraculous discovery of travel by feet, perfecting belting their ABC’s to proudly show off to their school companions, or navigating the awkward independence of impending teenage-hood, I can guarantee I will be prepared for all of it every step of the way. I hope to meet you and your family soon!

"Johanna is AMAZING! My two boys love her - she does everything from amazing arts & crafts, to helping with homework, to getting them playing outside! She also drives them and does everything involved with after school activities: packing snacks, getting the right gear, etc."

"When we hired Amani, we felt like we hit the jackpot. We were very lucky to find her on UrbanSitter at the beginning of school year. She was picking up kids from school, taking them to afternoon activities, helping them with assignments. She prepped food for them, helped organize their closets and keep their spaces neat and orderly. We would hire her again in a heartbeat."
