My name is Miley and I have 9 years of experience working with children in a variety of different settings including traditional daycare, Montessori school, nannying, residential, and after school care settings. I have experience with all age groups aged 0-17, however most of my experience has been with young children ages 0-3. I graduated in December 2025 from Portland State with a bachelors degree in psychology, and am currently attending graduate school at the University of Washington for applied child and adolescent psychology. Right now I’m mostly looking for date night type of gigs while I’m in grad school.

*looking for full time-part time regular positions for this summer starting July 1* Hello/hola! My name is Marilyn, I’m a 24 year old, bilingual (English/Spanish), student with over 6 years of childcare and senior care experience. I have 3 years of experience working for the YMCA as a before/after school instructor, summer camp counselor, and a early learning center floater. I have also nannied for three families and have been an on call babysitter for five others. I live in the Issaquah/Newcastle area and would love to find families to provide childcare for! I genuinely enjoy it and am working to have a bit of money while in nursing school at Bellevue College. I have many wonderful references and would love to chat if interested. Pay range negotiable and cash is preferred.

“Our kids really enjoyed having Marilyn spend time with them! She was on time, easy to talk too, and a great communicator. She also agreed to house sit and keep an eye on our dogs while we are away for a night.”

Hello! I am a student in the honors program at the University of Washington in Seattle. I have my drivers license and I am a very responsible driver. I am very creative and I love reading, playing games, doing art, and singing with the kids I babysit for! I speak English and Spanish and I am learning Mandarin. I have two younger sisters who I love and I have experience babysitting children ages 6 months to 14 years old. I am good at problem solving and hope to create a safe and grounded environment for your children. I like to have fun and I have a lot of energy but I also love to be cozy and chill depending on the needs of every family. I love animals and I have experience dog sitting and cat sitting. Let me know if I sound like a good fit for your family!
