Hi there! My name is Anya and I’ll be moving to Port Townsend in May. I would love to find a part time nannying/babysitting position! I’ve had a love for teaching children since I was 16, when I first started babysitting. Since then I’ve had many jobs in the field; Outdoor Ed Teacher, Summer Camp Counselor, Associate Toddler Teacher, Waldorf Kindergarten & Elementary school Teacher, and Nanny. I have experience working with a wide range of ages from newborns to teenagers. I have the most experience with ages 1-6 years old! I think it’s so fun getting to see their personalities come out and begin to explore life. I believe establishing trust with children is very important along with having fun and just being a kid! I have a Bachelor’s in Outdoor Education so I love going outside and exploring nature with the kids. I also love doing crafts, reading, coming up with new games to play, baking with them, & letting their imagination and creativity shine through! I am reliable, adventurous, trust worthy, attentive, caring, communicative, and have a very flexible schedule! I’m fine doing house hold chores and am comfortable with dogs & cats as well.
My name is Carolina, and I am 28 years old. I’m a nanny in the Seattle area, and I’m looking for occasional babysitting jobs. Kids have always been a huge part of my life, I have two nephews and a younger sister whom I helped raise and absolutely adore. Outside of my family, I have over six years of experience caring for children of all ages. In my free time, I enjoy hiking and exploring nature, as well as reading, cooking, and photography. I’m happy to drive the kids, I have a valid WA driver’s license and my own car. I’m also willing to prepare meals. Looking forward to hearing from you!
“Carolina was amazing and jumped right in taking care of our 9.5 month old baby girl!”
Howdy! My name is Kiara, and thank you for considering me to watch some of the most valuable beings in your life. I am 22 years old, and grew up as the eldest in my family with 2 significantly younger sisters, and several cousins, whom I have helped keep an eye on. Children bring a sense of wonder and curiosity many adults have lost, which is why I believe it is our responsibility as caretakers to responsibly foster these traits in a safe environment. I believe the best way to do this is to play, imagine, discover, and grow with those whom I watch. They have as much to teach me, as I do to them. Pets are family too, which is why I understand the love and compassion needed to care take for them as well. From walks, to playtime, or even cleaning up after accidents, I am here to care for them in your steed as you go on adventures of your own!
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:)
Hello, My name is Maimouna, you can call me Mayu (May-you), I am 21 years old. Responsible and reliable. I am bilingual (Arabic and English). I am CPR certified and have reliable transportation (will need parking.) I’ve been a caregiver for my mother for 4 years, recently started working as a Para Educator in the Everett school district. I’ve worked with adult students as well as pre-k and 1st grade students with disabilities. I do cleaning, running errands (in the area.), babysitting, housesitting, and petsitting. I am allergic to dogs but I am happy to work with families with cats. I do not do toileting or diaper changes. Due to religious beliefs and practices I will only work with clients who are clothed and toilet independent.
