Elizabeth $23 per hour for 1 child

Hello folks! I am Elizabeth and am so excited to meet you! I am happy to offer child care, senior care, and household services. I have a car and am available to help with driving tasks. I have over five years of experience in healthcare. As a float pool nurse, I worked in units all across the age spectrum from adolescent psychiatry to geriatric care. Therefore, I am very comfortable working with children and folks of all ages and abilities. I have my basic and advanced life support licenses and an overall focus on the well-being and joy of those I interact with. Additionally, I have a background in outdoor education. I’ve worked as camp counselor, soccer coach, and as well as a facilitator for team building workshops. I love to be outside and I love to help others explore the world around them in order to discover and grow into themselves. Happy to work with families with dogs, but I am allergic to cats. Thank you!

Cheri $17 per hour for 1 child

Hi - My name is Cheri and I have cared for preemie babies to grade school age. My daughter had quintuplets so I had the unique experience of caring for all ages and many kids at the same time. I love reading to children and playing games with them or just listening to what they have to say. I love to take walks with children and point out wild flowers and birds and squirrels. I have a corgi and walk him on the Clear Creek trail often and if parents would like me to walk with their kids at Clear Creek it is an amazing safe and interesting place for kids. I also am willing to assist with household stuff and running errands. I love cats and dogs so I’m open to feeding or taking walks with pets. My last job was working with people with special needs in a work environment. During that time I worked with young people with autism and Down syndrome. I’m seeking part-time hours and would be available to care for families in Silverdale, Poulsbo and Bremerton.

Hi! My name is Kelly. I have over 6 years of experience working with children, and I currently work full-time as a Marketing Director at a school. Since we're on summer break, I'm looking for an opportunity to earn some extra income. I've cared for children of all ages, with extensive experience caring for infants and toddlers.

"We were incredibly grateful that Maya was able to help us out with a last-minute childcare emergency. She matched our 9-year-old's energy with arts & crafts, some quiet reading, and a walk around the neighborhood. We'd have Maya back in a heartbeat!"
