Hello, I am a retired social worker, who has experience raising two adults and two grandchildren. Most recently, I was employed with a family with a 9 year old daughter. I worked three afternoons a week. I would pick her up at school in the unversity district , drive her home to Edmonds. Unless she had after school activity or tutoring, when home I would perpare a snack, look at her homework. At time she needed encouragement to complete her homework, I was able to help her with getting it done before dinner. One or two days a week she attended math toutering, one other days she would have swimming or gymantic. I would wait for her until her activity, and then return her home. Most evening i stays with her until 6 or 7 pm. If her parents were working late, I would prepare her dinner and hang out with her until her parents retiurned. If she was bored we would plays games or watch a parent approved show. At time I would be flexiable and stay later or changes schedules depends on the parents needs. vess she had an activiety she needed to attend. She had several extra the granddaughter full time nanny, from ages 6 months until she was 3. In addition to my life experiences with infants and children, part of my education, was courses in infant mental health and child development. I would like to share my calm, easygoing, nurturing grandmother personality with other families. After years of raising children, while living busy lives, I truly understand the need for a safe,secure and nurturing environment for children best development. In addition, I understand how difficult it can be to raise children, without help..I would love to meet your family and see if I can be an asset to your household I will look forward to hearing from you.

Hello, my name is Hattie! I am a graduate from Western Washington University and recently moved to the Seattle area. I offer child care, pet care, and housekeeping services. I have five years of experience caring for toddlers and school age children, and two years of experience in infant care. However, I have been a sitter for friends and family now and then for about eight years. I love children and specifically enjoy crafting, cooking, and reading with them. I have past experience giving music lessons and tutoring so I am happy to incorporate that into child care as well! Additionally, I love pets and have extensive experience with dog and cat-sitting. I am able to board them in my home, care for them in your home, and/or do daily visits. I have experience with all breeds, so no pet is out of the question. Finally, I can offer household services, such as cleaning, cooking, laundry, running errands, general house sitting, and yard work!
