Remi 1 review
$22 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Lynnwood, WA

Hi families! My name is Remi, and I am an enthusiastic childcare professional with over five years of experience. I am currently a student at the University of Washington and work as both a substitute teacher and nanny. I began my journey in childcare at a center where I worked with all age groups, from infants to school-age children. I later became a lead teacher of a toddler classroom and transitioned to leading a preschool classroom at another center. I hold an associate’s degree in Early Childhood Education as well as the following certifications: Certificate in State Early Childhood Education and Certificate of Specialization in State Short Early Childhood Education - General. Other relevant certifications include First Aid, Pediatric and Adult CPR US, and Food Handler Permit. I am deeply passionate about fostering diversity and creating inclusive, mindful environments for children. I strive to promote culturally sensitive practices and take the time to learn about the families I work with to better meet their needs. Working with children has been one of the most rewarding experiences of my life. I love being part of their growth and development, and I look forward to the opportunity to support your family!

I highly recommend Remi! She has been an incredible support to our family, especially during the early days when my baby was a newborn. Whether it was during the day or late at night, Remi was always there, providing the care and help I needed. Her experience and confidence in handling babies are truly remarkable. She knows exactly how to calm, comfort, and care for little ones, even in the most challenging moments. Her calm demeanor and nurturing personality made a world of difference for me as a new parent. Remi is dependable, attentive, and always follows instructions carefully. She also offered helpful advice based on her experience, which was reassuring. Knowing that my baby was in such capable and loving hands allowed me to rest and focus when I needed to. If you’re looking for someone who is reliable, compassionate, and experienced, Remi is the perfect choice. I would not hesitate to hire her again—she’s truly exceptional!

Laura Valentina $27 per hour for 1 child

Hi, my name is Valentina and I have been caring for children since I was 17, with about five years of experience. I have worked with babies, toddlers, and children up to 10 years old, including experience in daycare settings. I love planning age-appropriate activities such as arts and crafts, music, reading time, and playing at the park to support each child’s development in a fun and creative way. As a person, I am very calm, respectful, and patient, and I believe in teaching children healthy habits through daily routines and example. I care for every child with love, respect, and a strong sense of responsibility, always prioritizing their safety and emotional well-being. I am also comfortable helping with light housekeeping and keeping the children’s spaces organized and tidy.
