Hello there! My name is Clare - I’m a female identifying 26 year old currently living in Capitol Hill. After recently returning from working at the local clinic on San Juan Island this winter, and teaching English to elementary students in Spain last fall, I’m looking forward to spending this next chapter at Seattle University obtaining my Nurse Practitioner Doctorate! With a professional history of 3 years at Seattle Children’s Hospital working as a nursing assistant, supporting a Montessori preschool in north Seattle after graduating from UW in 2022, and extensive childcare experience throughout high school, I’m excited to be able to support another wonderful family. I am CPR certified for infants, children and adults, have experience working on a small organic farm with goats and chickens, and am fully licensed to drive with a personal vehicle as well as a current Washington State CNA license for more extensive care needs. I’m so happy to provide more information about myself and my background as desired, and I so look forward to sharing and connecting!
I'm 26 years old, I'm currently a Full-Time Nanny and I watch over children since I was 14 years old for occasional date nights or community volunteering at events and talent shows. All my experiences are with children between newborn and 12 years old. I love learning with them and helping them to develop their skills. I appreciate a good and open communication and working with the parents to provide their kids the best support and care
I am a caring, patient, and responsible person with strong experience caring for children and managing a home. As a mother, I understand children’s needs, routines, and safety. I enjoy helping kids learn, play, and feel comfortable. I am organized, trustworthy, and happy to support families with childcare and light household tasks.
Hi!! My name Giulia, I’m 26 and years old, and I’m from Brazil! I’m offering child care service, I’m pet friendly and comfortable with light house duties. I love being a babysitter and to watch them learn and grow! I started to work with kids at my church in Brazil, watching multiple kids at the same classroom, and babysit for some family friends during the week. I came to the US in 2018, taking care of kids from the age of 15 months to 12 years old. I love during arts and crafts, taking them to parks, museums, always engaging with them indoors or outdoors!! I drive kids to school and extra activities they have during the day.
Hey! I am Joyce and am 34 years old originally from Brazil. Currently, I work as a Mental Health Therapist in a school based program (elementary school). I have a strong background in childcare and child development. In Brazil, I spent two years working at a bilingual school with children aged 3 to 24 months. I also worked as an au pair for two years, caring for children from 3 months to kindergarten age. Additionally, I have experience in a clinical setting, providing Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) therapy for children on the autism spectrum, ranging from 2 to 10 years old. Currently, I provide mental health services to children in elementary schools. Working with children is my passion—I love seeing them grow, develop, and thrive. I am currently looking for occasional opportunities as a nanny. In my free time, I enjoy spending time outdoors, especially hiking, visiting parks. I also love reading. Thank you for taking the time to learn a little about me. I look forward to meeting you! Joyce

"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!"
