My name is lola i’m 18 years old and i’ve been babysitting for over 10 years now with all different age groups starting from 1-13 years old with boys and girls and people with special needs as well. I’m a super welcoming and inviting person who believes everyone deserves to be loved and cared for.
With a decade of experience caring for children and seniors, I have developed strong skills in providing reliable, compassionate, and attentive care. My background includes adapting to various needs, and creating safe, engaging environments for children. From managing daily routines and meal prep to organizing activities that foster learning and creativity, I am committed to ensuring a nurturing experience. In addition to caregiving, I am currently an Office Manager at a medical clinic, where I oversee scheduling, medical records, and administrative tasks. My diverse experience reflects my dedication to responsibility, organization, and providing quality care.
I love spending time with kids, pets, and seniors. I have a Bachelors degree in Nursing and worked at Swedish Hospital until I had a family of my own. My children are grown and I like to watercolor, play board games, hang out in nature, line dance and cook.
Hi! My name is Shamsa, and I am a childcare professional with over four years of experience working with infants and young children in licensed childcare settings, Bright Horizons. I bring a strong foundation in child development, structured routines, and creating calm, engaging environments where children feel safe and supported. I transitioned into nannying to provide individualized, development-focused care. I take an intentional approach by observing each child's needs, thoughtfully adjusting their environment, and creating meaningful, play-based experiences that support growth, independence, and confidence. I have experience in inclusive settings, including supporting children on the autism spectrum. I provide consistent, detailed updates so families feel informed, reassured, and connected throughout the day. I am CPR and First Aid certified, reliable, and available am fully vaccinated. (Dedicated to providing consistent, reliable care families can depend on.)
Hi, I'm Francis! I am a passionate, career-focused educator offering over 10 years of private nanny experience alongside a decade of professional childcare center experience. I hold an AA in Early Childhood Education and a Specialized Infant and Toddler Certificate from Bellevue College. Additionally, I am fully up to date on all safety, background, and CPR certifications, including Food Handlers and Safe Sleep guidelines. My extensive career spans every age group, allowing me to tailor my care to your family's exact needs: - Infants & Toddlers: I specialize in the Magda Gerber (RIE) philosophy, prioritizing respectful, attentive care that honors a child’s natural pace, emotional expression, and independence. - Preschool & School-Age: I currently serve as a Special Education Para-educator in the Bellevue School District and have previous experience as a Lead Teacher at Bellevue College ELC. I excel at keeping kids active, helping them navigate complex emotions, and building positive habits through gentle but firm boundaries. - Active & Outdoor Fun: I love nature walks and am always excited to take older kids hiking! I thrive on keeping children engaged with the outdoors, exploring local trails, and staying active in a fun, safe environment. - Bonus for Pet Owners: I am an animal lover! I have my own dog, Miko, and am always happy to provide pet sitting or love to your furry family members alongside your children. I love what I do, and I look forward to supporting your family during evenings, weekends, and school breaks!
