Find an after school nanny in Retsil, WA

I love kids. I have been babysitting since I was 11 yrs old. I am good with kids of all ages!! I also love pets. and I love being a caregiver as well. I love helping others.

I’ve been caring for children and families for most of my life, starting with babysitting at the age of 14. Over the years, that early experience grew into a long-term nanny position where I supported one family for six years, building strong relationships and becoming a trusted part of their daily lives. My approach is centered on creating a safe, engaging, and supportive environment where children can feel comfortable, have fun, and thrive. In addition to childcare, I spent four years as a personal assistant to a woman with advanced multiple sclerosis, which strengthened my patience, compassion, and ability to provide attentive, individualized care. I also have over 15 years of experience in pet sitting and animal care, and I’m very comfortable caring for both children and animals in a household setting. I’m dependable, warm, and highly attentive to the needs of those I care for, and I take pride in being someone families can trust and rely on.

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.
