Hello families! My name is Noora, and I am a new graduate Registered Nurse with almost two years of experience working in a licensed home childcare setting and 3 years on Care. com. Working with children has always been something I genuinely enjoy, and I love creating a safe and fun environment where kids can comfortably learn, and play. My approach to childcare is creative and individualized. Every child is different, and I enjoy getting to know their personalities, interests, and what helps them thrive. I love finding fun and engaging activities that match each child's unique needs. I do not smoke, have reliable transportation and CPR verified. I am comfortable with pets but unfortunately allergic to cats. As the oldest sibling in my family, caring for others has always come naturally to me. I value open communication and building trusting relationships with both children and parents. I'd describe my personality as caring, creative, and understanding. In my spare time, I enjoy painting, going to the beach, and spending time with family and friends. Looking forward to be apart of your child's care!
Hello, I recently worked for a local preschool and am working towards my STARS certification. I have a current food handlers card and child, infant, and adult CPR. I’m awesome with the elderly, children, and animals. Also very experienced in professional house cleaning. I am a current student in the Neuro Diagnostic Technologist program at Bellevue college. For the next two years. Looking for steady reliable employment:)
Hi! I'm Sara, a mom with over 15 years of experience caring for children of all ages, from newborns to 18-year-olds. I offer babysitting, errand-running, and house-sitting services, and I truly enjoy spending time with kids. In my free time, I love working out, swimming, reading my Bible, and going for walks. I also have more than 10 years of experience in healthcare and have received CPR training multiple times. Caring for children has always been a passion of mine, as I find joy in nurturing their curiosity and watching them grow. My experience ranges from babysitting for family and friends to volunteering in community programs, where I learned the importance of patience and creativity in engaging young minds. As a parent myself, I have a deeper appreciation for the challenges and rewards of raising a child. This personal journey has only strengthened my commitment to providing a supportive and loving environment for all children in my care, fostering their development and helping them flourish.
I adore children and have two boys myself which I feel is enough for me. I enjoy playing with them especially under 5 when they are cute and fun. But at the end at the day, I would prefer to return to their parents. I can be gentle yet firm for children that like to test boundaries- it allows me to be creative, playful and enjoy seeing their little wheels spinning when I interact with them. In addition, I like pets, but my household have allergy to pet dander so this is one way I can get my baby/ pet fix without having to raise them.
