Soyeon 1 review
$25 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 2 families in Monroe, WA

With over 10 years of experience in early childhood education, I have dedicated my career to fostering the development of young children. I have a strong background in creating engaging educational content and books, with over 5 years in content development tailored for infants and toddlers. Additionally, I have spent more than 3 years training fellow educators in play-based learning techniques, emphasizing the importance of interactive and nurturing environments. My comprehensive expertise equips me to provide exceptional care and educational support as a nanny, ensuring each child's growth and happiness.

We are so happy we met Soyeon. She was so engaged while playing with our kiddo. She offered new games and gave us a nice book as a memory. Thanks Soyeon:)

Booked by 6 families in Monroe, WA

Hello my name is Liana and I am a junior at the University of Puget Sound. I offer babysitting services for any age, pet sitting, and house sitting. My experience with kids includes being an assistant volleyball coach for middle schoolers, being an English tutor for a 5th grader, babysitting a 4 year old girl, and having a sister that is 10 years younger than me. In addition my experience for petting sitting + house sitting includes taking care of my cousins cat, dog, and house for 3 weeks. Some of the things that I value as a caregiver is being kind, communicative (with parents), engaging, patient, and having fun.

Booked by 1 family in Monroe, WA

I have worked in school districts for 10 years plus. Most of it was with special education, children. For the last five years, I’ve taken care of my very sick husband.. He goes to Dialysis three times a week of which I have already put into the hours I can work and he also has short-term memory loss. I have a great deal of patience and empathy for those that are younger and those that may have minor mental and emotional problems. I take very seriously what it is that I do. I do not consider these individuals as lesser people. I especially love children. I have 10 grandchildren, and I taught all of them how to swim. I was a major part in their lives and as a result of my support as has been told to me by my children, my grandchildren are stable and productive individuals in the society. But I mostly love and enjoy little one’s handicapped or not.

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.

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!
