Find an after school nanny in Indianola, WA

Hi my name is balkhais, I’m currently a 4th year student at the university of Washington. I am a caring, patient and reliable individual with a genuine love for working with children. I prioritize creating a safe, nurturing and engaging environment where children can grow, learn and feel supported. I’m attentive to children’s routines, needs, and emotional well-being and I’m comfortable assisting with feeding, diaper changes, naps, playtime and light household tasks related to childcare. I pride myself on being dependable, communicative and respectable of family values and I always aim to provide families with peace of mind while their child is in my care.

Hi, I'm Aimee! I'm a practicing Speech-Language Pathologist (SLP) and a trilingual caregiver fluent in ASL, Spanish, and English. I have 7+ years of paid childcare experience across WA, DC, and NY, working in daycares, preschools, and private homes. I am originally from Long Island, NY, and relocated to the greater Seattle area in the summer of 2024 (love it here!). I have experience caring for infants (as young as three months old) through school-age children and am comfortable caring for up to three children at a time. My style is playful, flexible, and child-led. I enjoy connecting with each child in a way that works best for them and supporting their independence through everyday routines. My background in speech-language pathology helps me bring patience, awareness, and strong communication skills to caregiving. I have a reliable car, am comfortable with pets (proud husky mom), and can assist with light household tasks as needed. I'm currently available for one-time or seasonal daytime gigs!

Please note: I have over 10 reviews (all 5-stars) on another platform which I can share. (I’m new to this platform.) My goal for the children I care for is that they are excited to see me and know that I have a genuine interest in getting to know them. As someone who studied Early Childhood Development and has 20 years experience, I deeply understand respect must be given to children to receive it back and trust is earned. I make sure every family I work for has peace of mind when their children are in my care. I am punctual and committed to keeping my promises to maintain a smooth flow for everyone. And, I like to have fun with kids; playing games, art, dancing, laughing, etc. Any child I provide long term care for, I attempt to build a relationship with them that positively influences their lives.

Hello, my name is Ezgi, I am 21 years old. I have been actively taking care of children for 5 years. I get along very well with children. I can take care of children in the morning or on a boarding stance. I also took care of dogs. You can contact me for child or dog care, thank you very much.

Caring for others has always been a constant in my life. I grew up babysitting and became involved in mentor programs starting at age 14, which set the foundation for my love of working with children, families, and people of all ages. I have extensive experience with older children and teens through my role as a mentor with Rainier Athletes, where I support high school students with goal-setting, confidence-building, emotional regulation, and navigating everyday challenges. I’m especially comfortable building trust with older kids and being a steady, positive role model. In college, I worked internationally as an au pair in Spain, teaching English and supporting a local family, and later became a live-in nanny in London for a one- and three-year-old. These roles gave me hands-on experience with early childhood routines, developmental milestones, structure, and patience—while also teaching me adaptability, communication, and cultural sensitivity. I also have experience with seniors and caregiving environments. My mother is a hospice caregiver, so I grew up around senior care and understand the importance of compassion, dignity, and attentiveness when supporting older adults. In addition, I am extremely comfortable with pets and home care. I’m a former member of TrustedHousesitters and have traveled internationally caring for homes and animals, managing everything from daily routines and medications to long-term stays. Animals are a joy for me, and I treat every home and pet as if they were my own. Personality-wise, families describe me as: • Warm, calm, and empathetic • Responsible and dependable • Fun, engaging, and emotionally aware • Great at communication and boundaries I’m someone who takes caregiving seriously while still bringing humor, creativity, and genuine care into every role. Whether I’m supporting kids, seniors, or pets, my goal is always the same: to make people feel safe, supported, and truly cared for.
