My name is Miley and I have 8.5 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.

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!

Hi families! I’m Dani 😊 I’m an experienced nanny who truly cares about creating a safe, loving, and fun environment for kids. My priority is always making sure children feel comfortable, supported. I have several years of hands-on experience with infants, toddlers, and young children, including working as a preschool teacher in a Montessori school, an au pair in the U.S., and a full-time nanny. Today, I focus on providing attentive personalized care, whether that’s keeping little ones on their routines, planning age-appropriate activities, or simply being present and responsive to their needs. I’m responsible, patient, organized, and very attentive to safety. I also love creating fun moments with kids through play, creativity, and outdoor time when possible. I’m a strong driver (10+ years of experience), fully vaccinated with booster, CPR & First Aid certified, and a non-smoker. I’d love the opportunity to connect and see how I can support your family. Feel free to reach out if you have any questions! Looking forward to hearing from you ☺️

Dani did an amazing job taking care of our daughter. She was very professional and great at engaging with our five year old. We would recommend her highly to other families and hope to have her come back to take care of our daughter again.

Booked by 1 family in Bainbridge Island, WA

I spent my freshmen and Sophomore year (2[removed]) at college working with preschool English language learners. From 2015 to 2018 I worked at Green Tree Early Education center in Downtown Seattle. After graduating from the University of Washington with a degree in Early Education, I went for a Masters in Computer Science from Northeastern University. During my corporate career, I worked EST which allowed me to be an afterschool nanny/manny starting during the pandemic. I have worked with 7 different families and my undergraduate education was focused on infants and toddlers. Most of my experience is in transitional care / mothers helper while the families are on a waitlist for childcare centers. However my most recent experience was as a nanny/manny for two boys with Autism Spectrum disorder. I have an outdated first aid and CPR certification but I am almost certain there has not been any significant changes since 2017. I am comfortable around pets

Brian responded to my post looking for a last minute sitter for my 3 kids (11, 8, 4) when our regular sitter cancelled. He arrived 10 mins early to get settled, and immediately engaged with my 11 year old. He had a creative dinner idea for the kids, even got our 4yo to eat a lot, and I came home to happy kids who couldn’t wait to tell me about all the fun they had. He even got my 4yo to play with him, and she’s usually very hesitant towards new people. He followed her multi-step bedtime routine successfully too. Full disclosure: Brian is my coworker’s husband, so I knew and had met him before hiring him. After rave reviews from my kids, I will definitely be hiring him again.
