Find infant babysitters in Rainier, WA

Hi! My name is Sally and I love children & pets and serving parents’ needs for care, transporting, light cooking, cleaning, as well as errand-running when needed. I have operated my own loving and successful licensed childcare when my own children were young. I have worked both professional and labor jobs in my community. I approach my work with a positive attitude and its important to me that each child feels safe and know that they are loved, unique, capable, and important. I respect boundaries & apply a Safety-First mindset. Besides raising my own 2 children who are now grown, I have extensive experience as a co-leader of a Kids Club program that served inner-city children & youth in South Seattle. I also have some special needs experience both before and after having my own children. Additionally, I have life-long experience caring for large & small dogs and a variety of cats of my own and others, including hamsters, a lizard and a turtle. Others’ dogs and cats seem to really love me, so it’s mutual😊🐶🐈‍⬛. I also have a masters degree in public administration, have worked for years doing social work throughout Thurston, Pierce and Mason counties and I have worked various labor jobs from food & auto parts delivery to pulling fenceboards at a sawmill. I bring a positive, can-do attitude and strong work ethic. I have received more trainings than i can list here, including first aid & CPR and mental health first aid. I support movement/exercise & can share about nutrition of foods in a positive, encouraging way. I am also quite capable with household odd jobs and I own my home, doing most updating work myself. I may be higher on the hourly rate chart, but I am more than worth it. I am open to negotiation as well & i give a slight discount to single moms & families in hardship situations. Most importantly, I am engaging with each child according to their personality and comfort. I consistently support parents’ expectations of their child(ren), and am ALWAYS honest, trustworthy and transparent. I am genuine & flexible. I am excited to meet you, your child(ren) & any pet family members too! Last, but not least, i wash my hands upon entry each time and practice careful food handling and prevention of spreading germs, etc. I am so rarely sick and have no allergies, so you never have to second guess about whether or not I am well and i have no problem caring for sick children when parent(s) absolutely must be at work.

I have returned to full-time, school-based work as a Certified Behavior Technician, and I’m passionate about helping children grow into confident, curious, and independent individuals. 🌱 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 and BLS- and CPR-certified, and 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 Fridays beginning at 1:45 p.m., as well as 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! ☀️
