Find an after school nanny in Mountlake Terrace, WA

I’m a devoted mother of two daughters, a professional artist, and an experienced newborn photographer. For many years, I’ve worked with children as an art teacher, creating inspiring and joyful spaces for them to explore their imagination. My background in art has taught me patience, empathy, and the importance of emotional connection in a child’s growth. Currently, I work as a newborn photographer at Evergreen and Overlake hospitals, where I capture the first precious moments of life with care and creativity. I’m also pursuing studies in Art Therapy to deepen my understanding of how art can nurture emotional healing. Working with children—whether through art, photography, or care—has always been one of the most fulfilling parts of my life.

Hi! I’m Ruoxi, a bilingual English and Chinese speaker with a strong passion for children, education, and lifelong learning. I’m currently an entrepreneur and run my own property management business. Before moving to the United States, I founded and managed an English language training school in China, where I served as the school principal. That experience gave me the opportunity to work closely with children, teachers, and families, and it sparked a lasting interest in how children learn, grow, and develop confidence. I’m especially interested in different approaches to education and child development. I enjoy learning about educational philosophies and finding ways to adapt activities to each child’s personality, interests, and learning style. I believe children learn best when they are curious and engaged, so I love the idea of “learning through play and playing through learning.” Rather than simply giving children answers, I enjoy asking questions, encouraging curiosity, and helping them develop the ability to think independently and solve problems on their own. Depending on the child’s age and interests, I enjoy reading together, doing arts and crafts, playing educational games, exploring nature, practicing English or Chinese, and creating activities that make learning feel natural and fun. I have also helped care for my neighbors’ children and genuinely enjoy spending time with kids. I am patient, responsible, organized, and attentive. As someone who has managed both a school and my own businesses, I understand the importance of responsibility, communication, and trust. I am fluent in both English and Chinese and would be happy to incorporate either language into everyday activities if a family is interested in giving their child more exposure to Chinese or supporting a bilingual environment. Above everything else, I believe a child’s safety and well-being always come first. My goal is to provide a safe, positive, and encouraging environment where children feel comfortable being themselves, asking questions, exploring their interests, and becoming more confident and independent.

Hi! My name is Chae (but go by Rachel), and I bring a unique mix of professional experience, academic background, and personal passions to caregiving/childcare. I’m fluent in both Korean and English, hold a Master’s degree in AI Engineering, and was a math Olympiad competitor and 3-time spelling bee champion growing up. I also dabble in classical piano playing and love incorporating music, creative play, and learning (specifically STEM subjects; kindergartners should have the multiplication table memorized, at the very least) into daily routines with kids. My approach is fun, nurturing, and structured; I believe in encouraging independence, healthy emotional expression, and creativity, while also holding clear boundaries. I don’t believe in “babying” kids, but I do value empathy, communication, and respect. I enjoy preparing nutritious, often organic meals, and always tailor care to suit each family’s values and needs. Whether it’s caring for children, pets, or helping manage a household, I bring reliability, warmth, and a thoughtful, educated approach to everything. In addition, I have over 3 years of experience as a top-rated pet sitter on Rover and formerly a veterinary technician, so I’m extremely comfortable with animals of all kinds, including those with medical or behavioral needs.
