I have had several years of experience working with children of all ages. Working with children is something that I am very passionate about. I graduated from Seattle University Law School and am available currently studying for the bar exam. I am looking for a part-time position and have flexible study hours.
“10/10 would recommend! Kailey babysat our daughter along with two of our friends’ children and it went so well! The girls had a blast and felt comfortable with Kailey. It’s awesome that she charges a reasonable price for multiple kiddos. We’re all looking forward to next double date night knowing we have someone to watch the kids.”

Asma

$30 per hour for 1 childBooked by 3 families in Carnation, WA
Hi there! My name is Asma and I can’t wait to work with you. A little about me, I am originally from Ethiopia and eventually made my way to the States in 1998. Since then, I am lucky enough to have birthed 4 beautiful kids here: 3 boys (9, 16, 18) and 1 girl (19)! Aside from the motherhood experience, I’ve worked with seniors and children of all ages for over a decade. I have been employed as an Assistant Teacher at the Goddard School in Snoqualmie, Washington since 2016. At the Goddard School, I have been an assistant teacher to several teachers and have cared for ages newborn to 5, just until they’re headed to Kindergarten. In doing so, my responsibilities included: creating a calm, safe and nurturing environment to meet the physical, emotional and cognitive needs of infants, diaper changing, playing indoor & outdoors, etc. Furthermore, from 2005 to 2010, I was employed as a Home Care Assistance through Chesterfield in Seattle, Washington where I was responsible for caring for several seniors. My responsibilities included: mobility support, assisting with maintaining personal hygiene by bathing, brushing their hair and teeth or applying skincare, etc. I truly love working with seniors and children as they both provide me with a sense of joy and happiness. With each child or senior that I care for, I am committed to providing a safe and comfortable relationship with one another to ensure that they are best cared for. I would love to expand on my experience, if needed. Please feel free to reach out at anytime. Before accepting a booking, please be aware that I am unable to work with dogs and/or cats. Nevertheless, I am so excited to meet you! Additional Info: ⁃ Cleared for TB ⁃ MMR Immunization
