Anya Chimacum
$30 per hour for 1 child

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.

$25 per hour for 1 child

I am a mother and a grandmother. I raised my three children with love, devotion, a sense of humor, surrounded by grandparents, aunts, uncles and cousins. They are all well adjusted adults. I have also been a caregiver/babysitter for two of my four grandchildren as a regular job, on Bainbridge Island and have taken care of all my grandchildren throughout their lives on many different occasions. I have also been a caregiver for the elderly for the past 6 years for a company that just closed its doors, unfortunately. I have two cats and have had cats all my life. They love me and I love them.

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!

Hi there- my name is Olivia and I’m currently active duty Navy stationed right here in Bremerton I am offering child care for all ages and household services. I love my day job but find myself missing what I had before the navy which was taking care of children. I am no stranger to all ages and I’m very flexible to fit the needs of you as busy families. I am the oldest of 20 children within my immediate family and have been taking care of children as long as I can remember. I am CPR certified, and am very reliable in emergency situations. I also work as a tutor for elementary students weekly. I look forward to meeting you!

Olivia is probably one of the best babysitters you could ever hire! My son loved spending time with her and was so sad when she had to go. We loved Olivia because of her willingness to understand our family values when taking the job so that she could tailor to our family's needs. She took such great care of our son, and gave us so many laughs about the times they shared before she left. We can't wait to hire her again! She honestly is the best!! ❤❤❤❤
