Find an after school nanny in Maple Valley, WA

About Me I am a caring and responsible mother of three young adults. My childcare experience comes from raising my own children and helping care for my grandson since he was born. I have truly enjoyed the time I have spent with my grandson over the past five years. I love taking him to the park when the weather allows, going on short walks, and spending calm, quality time together in a safe and positive environment. I am patient, dependable, and attentive. I take pride in being trustworthy and providing gentle, supportive care. I have First Aid and CPR training. I have my own car, I am comfortable with pets, and I speak Spanish and English. I can also help with child-related housekeeping. I prefer caring for one child at a time so I can give them my full attention. I would be happy to support your family and provide loving care for your child.

I am a mother of two beautiful daughters I haves good speaking skills to provide direction or information effectively and good listening skills to understand parents' instructions.

Highly personable and experienced nanny! Multiple years of Montessori & Reggio Emilio focused work in childcare centers as a lead. Currently working on my master's degree! I have lead camps at Woodland Park Zoo, the Seattle Aquarium, and Seattle Recreative. I'm looking forward to providing quality, enriching care for your family.

I raised 5 of my own children, 4 boys and 1 daughter, from birth to adulthood. I also have 2 granddaughters 5 and 7 years old. I have lots of patience, tons of energy for many activities children love to do, and a lot of love and caring to give. Children are such a blessing and a great joy. I will always carry out your wishes for your family because you have sacrificed, and your role and wishes are very important. I do really love animals, and I have cared for two dogs, cats, rabbits, and birds, that were part of my family. If someone asked me what I would do, if their child did not do as they were asked while I was caring for them on a babysitting job, I would tell them… I would like to have had a conversation with the parents before they left their children in my care, as to how they wanted me to handle that situation. I would like to follow what the parents wishes are, because you cannot make a child do anything. although you can make the parents happy by following their wishes. I have had two previous jobs working with seniors in the past. The first one was mostly companionship, but I also cooked, took her to appointments and to run errands, we would also go walking for a little exercise, and to keep her agile and able to have balance and strength. She had great stories that I would listen to, and we would connect over them… she was a great lady. The second job was working with a gentleman who needed driving to appointments, grocery stores and to the gym. He had macular degeneration so he could see, but not enough to drive. I was very patient and understanding with him, as he did suffer from some age related dementia (he was in his early 90s). I would help him with household cleaning, chores and companionship, he liked to share his life over lunch that I would prepare for him. I also helped him with his finances and writing checks to pay his bills. He was very spunky and entertaining, and he liked to talk about his life when his wife was still alive.

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.
