Unique $25 per hour for 1 child

I'm a compassionate and dedicated nanny with 2 years of experience working with children of various ages, ranging from infant to 8 years. During my senior year of high school over the weekends I cared for a very artsy, and outgoing girl who enjoyed nature walks and coloring in color books. We often spent our time reading, playing different games, and conversing with each other. I ensured she was washed, feed, and in bed on time. I enjoy babysitting because it's fun and keeps me on my toes as well as provides me with life skills such as responsibility and patience. Furthermore it's a rewarding way to earn money. I just turned 18 and graduated this June from Internet Academy. I enjoying reading, painting, going on walks, capturing photos of the outside scenery, and meal prepping.

Booked by 1 family in Redmond, WA

Hi, my name is Reese! I'm a caring and responsible babysitter who enjoys spending time with kids of all ages. I have plenty of childcare experience and always make sure children are safe, engaged, and having fun. Whether it's playing games, going on walks, reading books, or helping with routines, I’m very attentive and patient. Recently, I worked for a family with 1 infant and 1 toddler. Some of our favorite things to do were going on walks to the playground and library. In addition to babysitting, I would consider myself an active person who enjoys working out, hiking, and horseback riding. I would describe myself as friendly, dependable, respectful, and I always strive to create a positive environment for the families I work with. I recently graduated from college with a bachelors degree and I plan to pursue a career as a paralegal in the future.

Reese was a great babysitter for our infant son! We would happily work with her again and recommend her for other families. She was very professional, timely, and responded quickly to messages. She took care of our little one while we were out for an evening. She played with him, fed him dinner, and put him through the bed time routine.
