Welcome to my profile, I’m Kensy, a bilingual (English & Spanish) caregiver with years of hands-on experience supporting children from infancy through school age. I’ve worked as a nanny, daycare assistant, and currently serve as a paraeducator in a dual language elementary school. I’m confident caring for infants, including feeding, changing, naps, and soothing routines, and I truly enjoy helping little ones feel secure and loved. My approach is rooted in patience, creativity, and respect for each child’s individuality. I have experience incorporating Montessori-inspired methods that encourage independence, exploration, and meaningful play. Whether we’re doing arts and crafts, reading, or singing songs, I strive to make each day engaging and enriching. I’m also happy to support families with light household help and simple meal prep. If you’re looking for a dependable, nurturing, and experienced caregiver, I’d love to be a part of your child’s journey!
Hello my name is Haely I'm a dental assistant offering child care & household services. I'm 21 years old and have 10+ years of experience caring for children from ages newborn to kids. I’m attentive to children’s needs, enjoy creating fun and engaging activities, and understand the importance of safety, routines, and clear communication. I’m responsible, organized, and happy to help with meals, light household tasks, homework, playtime, and bedtime routines. I treat every child with kindness and respect and strive to create a safe, positive environment where they can feel comfortable and have fun. I have my license and CPR Certification.
I have more than 20 years experience caring for children in both a home and school setting. I raised children of my own, and had a small home daycare before they were school age. I then began working in the school system. I currently work as a certified behavior technician in Pierce county schools. As a caretaker, I love creating a calm, playful, and creative environment where children feel safe to explore, learn, express themselves, and build independence at their own pace. I believe meaningful growth happens through everyday experiences—spending time outdoors, connecting with the community, trying new things, being creative, and having a trusted adult nearby to offer encouragement and support. I am trauma-informed, BT, BLS- and CPR-certified. I bring patience, compassion, and thoughtful care to every family I work with. Although my professional background as a Certified Behavior Technician informs the care I provide, I do not offer CBT or any other in-home behavioral therapy or services through this platform or any other. When caring for your family member, I am working specifically in the role of a nanny or caretaker. I simply draw on my experience and training to provide informed, compassionate, and attentive care. My current availability is Monday and Wednesday 3:30-12:00am, Fridays beginning at 1:45 p.m., and all day Saturdays and Sundays. I’d love to chat, learn more about your family and what you’re looking for, and see if we might be a great fit! ☀️
“Brandi was awesome with my kid. She came on time and kept him engaged.”
Hi there! I like to go by Andy. I am three years into a graduate program in School Psychology and I am well-versed in child development and education. I'm caring, patient, flexible, and I love working with kids! I have combined seven years of experience babysitting, tutoring, and working as a peer mentor for school-aged kids, including neurodivergent youth. I have also been counseling and teaching social-emotional lessons to students through my program. I am working full time at an elementary school this year, but looking for part time summer gigs with kids in the Tacoma area between June-Aug.
“Andy was fantastic with our daughter. We appreciated his attention to detail, great communication, and taking the extra effort to tidy up our hectic home. Our kid can’t wait for Andy to come back again.”
I am a stay-at-home mom to a 4-year-old and 10-month-old. I have a background in IT Risk & Compliance, Bookkeeping, and Early Child Development. With my own kids, I emphasize mannerism and self-sufficiency. Things we love include, library visits, playground time, arts and crafts, baking, visits to the Y, and even mini history lessons— I try to make everyday moments fun and educational. Services I offer: • Babysitting (children) and companion sitting (seniors) (can incorporate Spanish) • Light cooking (simple, easy meals) • Errands • Light cleaning (cleaning products provided by client) A bit more about me: I’m passionate about traveling, music, soccer, going on walks, and trying new activities — especially with my kids.

"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!"
