Hi, I’m Paige and I’m an HCC teacher in Seattle Public Schools. I am certificated to teach K-8, with ample childcare experience. I am CPR certified. I also have experience providing care and support to elders. I am comfortable and confident managing and taking care of multiple people (and pets!) at once. I also have plenty of housekeeping and cleaning experience. I love working with people and getting to know families!
Hi - My name is Cheri and I have cared for preemie babies to grade school age. My daughter had quintuplets so I had the unique experience of caring for all ages and many kids at the same time. I love reading to children and playing games with them or just listening to what they have to say. I love to take walks with children and point out wild flowers and birds and squirrels. I have a corgi and walk him on the Clear Creek trail often and if parents would like me to walk with their kids at Clear Creek it is an amazing safe and interesting place for kids. I also am willing to assist with household stuff and running errands. I love cats and dogs so I’m open to feeding or taking walks with pets. My last job was working with people with special needs in a work environment. During that time I worked with young people with autism and Down syndrome. I’m seeking part-time hours and would be available to care for families in Silverdale, Poulsbo and Bremerton.
Hi - I’m Joey - I'm 61 and full of energy! I am offering child care and household services. Also- special event services/catering, party help. I'm semi-retired, after some amazing careers (from clothing design, baby boutique owner, event planning to catering)- and now I'm focusing on my art and working part time at a few of my interests. I spend a lot of time in nature walking and hiking with my dog Blue- rain or shine. (Also, spend a lot of time at Pickleball!) I love babies and kids- I'm a very patient, helpful, friendly person and love meeting new people. My adult daughters always tell me that I should be a caregiver/babysitter/nanny. I'm happy to help with homework, reading, doing crafts, going for walks etc. My baby/child care started very early- When I was 10 my mom had #5 and basically handed her over. We are very close now still. I can cook, clean, drive to appointments, or do other tasks. I have helped my 81 year mother quite a bit and am comfortable with senior care. I have always had dogs and cats and am happy to take care of those as well! I have current CPR and First Aid certificates. Love to meet in person! Joey
“Joey helped us out on very short notice. I really appreciated her flexibly, since I hadn't had time to really make plans. She got along great with our toddler and was warm, attentive, and professional.”
I LOVE being with children! Growing up in a huge family, I've always been surrounded by kids, so it's been a pretty easy task to take care of them. I started babysitting when I was 11, and then gradually it turned into a regular thing. I have been a part-time nanny, and now that I'm a full time Esthetician, I pick up babysitting shifts and date nights regularly! I baby-sit at least three times a month. I have watched children from the ages of new born to 11 years of age.
Hello my name is Maria. The past few years I have primarily worked within restaurants while assisting families with household cleaning on the weekends. Currently I have a couple days a week available in which I can take care of tasks around the house or provide childcare which I have previously done as well! I can provide references as needed.
