Elizabeth $23 per hour for 1 child

I am a nurse and have been working for 6 years. I have worked the longest (and currently work) in primary care which includes children of all ages. Prior to my nursing degree, I was a nanny and caregiver throughout college (4 years), and I babysat in high school too (all ages). I am hoping to offer nanny services on my off days to help save for our own little one in the next year or so :) I love children of all ages and am excited to meet new families!

Maryam $28 per hour for 1 child

Hello! My name is Maryam and I have been working with kids for the last 7 years. Childcare is something that I care so much about and put my whole heart into. My previous jobs have been an Education Director at the Boys and Girls Club, a youth development professional for before and after school care, an educator, a tutor, and a swim instructor. I'm also certified in First Aid and CPR, fully vaccinated, and passionate about making sure that all of the kids I work with are cared for and happy :) As the middle child of six siblings, l've grown up knowing how important family is, and my natural warmth and responsibility shine through in everything I do. I'm currently pursuing my college education, mostly online, which helps me have a more flexible schedule. So! If you're looking for a babysitter who's fun, friendly, empathetic, dependable, and experienced, then l'd love to meet you and your kiddos!

Mary $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I'm Mary, and I'm looking for a part-time nanny position. I spent 17 years running my own preschool and childcare program, caring for children from newborns through kindergarten. With a business degree and extensive coursework in early childhood education, I bring both professional experience and a true passion for nurturing young minds. I've also had the joy of raising three daughters of my own, all now college graduates, giving me a personal understanding of children's needs. I'm patient, dependable, and love spending time with kids, whether it's reading, playing, helping them learn, or simply making sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for.

Cynthia $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi, I'm Cindy, proud mother of 4 sons. My boys were raised in Bothell where we attended cooperative schools from preschool through elementary school. I was blessed to be a stay at home mom which gave me the opportunity to experience the growth, individual needs, and love of many children. We enjoyed many field trips, community service projects, science and art outings. Each child was supported by our team of parents and teachers. I met lifetime friends, and was a nanny for a family of 3 children for 12 years. I also volunteered at Sunday school, and provided care for children in my home. I became an RN in 2013 when family illnesses required the professional skills for at home care. I have worked with infants, toddlers, preschoolers, primary schoolers, teenagers and seniors. My 2 previous 4 legged companions were rescue labs. Recently, I enjoyed my great niece and 3 great nephews ages 2-6 in New Mexico. I was on several "nana drop off lists", and find myself at the kids table as much as possible. I will be an asset to your family and truly delight in your children! I especially love the energy, honesty, curiosity and sweetness of preschoolers!
