Hello parents! I'm a bilingual nanny (PT/EN) with over eight years of experience providing care for children, from newborns all the way to teenagers! I’m looking for long-term occasional babysitting opportunities, where I can develop a relationship with the family. 😊 I consider myself to be attentive, sensitive, patient, kind and loving with kids. I believe in creating a partnership with the parents I work with to help raise their kids to grow up being the best humans they can: smart, respectful, curious, compassionate and loving, and I do that by creating a safe, nurturing and enriching environment. Additionally, I’m fully covid vaccinated and boosted, have a valid driver’s license, and a clean driving record. I’m also CPR/First Aid Certified. Both resumé and references can be provided upon request!

Letícia was excellent with our almost two year old and even got him to sleep quicker than we can most nights. I would definitely recommend her and will be happy to have her take care of our child again.

Hi Parents! If you have any questions after reading my profile, I encourage you to reach out to me, and I will do my best to get back to you right away. I have been caring for children since I was 11 years old, and I started working as a Professional Nanny/Household Manager/Mary Poppins when I was 17 until I was 33. At the age of 30, I opened the sought-after nanny agency in Seattle, The Nanny Consultant. During the course of my nanny career, I took dozens of classes supporting children in everything from sleep to development, and I feel like I have read every parenting book under the sun. Since then, I have had three children, who are now 4, 5, and 7, whom I homeschool. Years ago, I completed the basic skills exam from the INA with 100% accuracy. I have also completed the National Nanny Training Day in San Diego in 2013 and in Seattle in 2016, Nannypolozza in Orlando in 2015 and Vancouver Nanny Training in 2016 and spoke there in 2017. I most recently attended a newborn care specialist class. I truly love this profession as it is a true passion of mine. I am in it for the long run. I currently only provide back up care and date nights. My objective is to offer families the best and complete care for their children with love, nourishment, and guidance and to make sure the health, well-being, education, and safety of the children are never jeopardized. I undertake all tasks related to the care of the entire household. I support children by providing physical, social, emotional, creative, and intellectual play to ensure proper development. I always maintain good, open communication with parents and usually come with a nanny bag with books, coloring sheets, and a puzzle that is age-appropriate. "I have extensive experience in childcare and treat the children under my care as if they were my own. I have a natural ability to connect with children, and they tend to gravitate towards me (even animals too!). My priority is providing quality care to the children and creating a safe and enjoyable environment for them."

Kyla was wonderful! She even reorganized our toy area!!

Hi - My name is Christina, I’m 30 years old and I'm currently in school to get a degree in Public Health. Once I complete my degree, I would love to have the title, “child and maternal health advocate”! I started working in child care 10 years ago as a lead teacher in a toddler classroom at a daycare. After a few years there, I moved on to becoming a nanny. I’ve been a nanny to two amazing families since 2016. Im thankful to have held long term positions. While my work week is filled with my current position, I do enjoy babysitting on the side. Im open to one time and occasional babysitting depending on the families needs. I love being a babysitter and have been watching newborns, infants, toddlers, and kids (including twins!) since was 18 years old. My responsibilities as a babysitter have included bed time routines, prepping meals, cleaning up as well as entertaining the children. Naturally, I have a calm demeanor and a nurturing personality. I believe it goes hand in hand while being a caretaker. Although I am unavailable for for a full/part time position, I am open for date nights and such! Please feel free to contact I me. I can also provide my resume. *updated Aug. 2023

We hired Christina to take care of our 3 year old daughter for the afternoon/evening. She did a wonderful job with Eliana in engaging her, taking her to play at the park, and making sure she got all the steps to her bedtime routine done--always a challenge. She quickly noticed and cleaned up when our daughter almost started painting the wall while I was showing Christina around right after she arrived. She also cleaned up after our daughter had a potty accident. Christina was very professional, arrived early, and has a very calm, patient, and thoughtful demeanor. We highly recommend her to other families, and hope to have the opportunity to hire her again.

Hi! My name is Christine! I am a mental health counselor desiring to work part-time/per diem for nannying and babysitting. I currently live near Green Lake. I very much enjoy working with kids, exploring new places (especially outdoors!), playing games, crafting, and finding creative ways to have fun with kids. Most of my professional and volunteer experience has been working with kids, and I desire to continue to work with children in therapeutic settings in the future. I have worked in preschool and nannying settings for the past year and half, and prior have worked with children therapeutically in an inpatient psychiatric setting, day and overnight camps, and babysitting, mostly with infants through 12 year olds. In previous nannying and babysitting, I help with laundry, housekeeping, and meal and snack prep, and am open to doing that alongside child care as well. Personally, I enjoy being outdoors, hiking, decorating, cooking and baking, and spending time with friends. I very much appreciate you considering me to work with your family!

Wonderful with our daughters
