Find an after school nanny in Tacoma, WA

Hi! I am a college softball player at University of Puget Sound, and I am from Spokane, Wa! For the past 8 years, I have been nannying for the same family at home in Spokane, during the school years and summers. They have three boys, who when I started were aged 1, 3, and 5, and they are now 8, 10, and 12! I also have experience with children as young as 8 months, so I’m comfortable with a variety of ages! I have picked up and dropped off kids at school, done bedtime routines, cooked all meals throughout the day, helped kids with homework, and supervised/driven kids to many after school activities! I also have experience working with a child diagnosed with ADHD and autism. I have helped the family with his outbursts, and give him his medications throughout the day! I love having fun with the kids, but am firm with rules and expectations. I consider myself to be a patient person, especially after working with a child with special needs.

I have been caring for children for most of my life. I have experience with infants, toddlers, middle and high school aged children. Professionally caring for children and adults for 10+ years. I was a Home Care Aide for elderly and adults with disabilities. I have a Bachelor of Science degree in Family & Consumer Sciences Education that focused on Child Development and Parenting Strategies. I am currently a full time high school teacher, seeking part-time evening and weekend employment. I am comfortable working with all types of people and families. Great housekeeper, tutor, childcare professional, etc.

Experience: I have been caregiving and caretaking since I was 12 years old. It began when my dad would drop us off at his friend’s daycare center and I remember helping prepare food, assisting with art projects, changing of diapers and connecting with the little ones. I have previous work history with SitterTree based out of Georgia and I worked there before the COVID quarantine, it was truly such a special time. I felt a special connection to each family I worked for and we were all sad when we had to part ways. One of my favorite stories about my time with SitterTree was how a family nicknamed me “Poppy” because I would bring a suitcase of art supplies and toys to play with the kids and it reminded them of Mary Poppins. Fun Facts: I am the eldest of 5 kids and my youngest sibling is 16. I am a multimedia artist and I love connecting with children through art/creative projects.

I am an “animal whisperer” and tend to forge special bonds with animals of all shapes and sizes. I have a 7 year old kitty named Aspen.
