Booked by 1 family in Washougal, WA

Hiya! I hold National Board Certification in Early Childhood, an active AZ Teaching License, and a handful of other education licenses! I have 23 years experience in education, teaching Pre-K through 5th grade, and executive experience in curriculum and leadership. Happy to babysit, tutor, provide educational experiences—whatever you need!

Caroline helped to babysit our 15 month toddler for two days. It’s like having your private ms Rachel at home. She’s energetic and very patient with our fussy toddler. She also understands baby’s needs and provides good suggestions to parents. Will hire her again!

Hanna $16 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Hanna. I’m a graduate college student with a degree in English, currently living in Northeast Portland. I come from a big, loving family with four rowdy brothers, so I’m no stranger to energetic households! My childcare experience began in high school, where I spent my junior and senior years nannying a toddler with fetal alcohol syndrome. It was some of the most challenging, yet rewarding, work I’ve ever done. Since then, I’ve cared for children ranging from infants to middle schoolers. At my local church, I’ve volunteered in nursery care, taught classes, and mentored middle school students over the years. I also worked closely with special needs students in high school—participating in P.E. classes, supporting talent shows, and building strong, inclusive friendships. Currently, I work as a substitute teacher and also as a barista at Starbucks, where I love greeting people with a smile and helping make their day a little brighter. As a mom myself, I know how important it is to create a safe, nurturing environment. I’m available for babysitting during the summertime and on weekends. I look forward to connecting with families in need of dependable, experienced care.

Sophia $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi my name is Sophia! I am currently a student at MHCC studying for nursing! I am offering child, senior, and pet care as well as some house keeping. I have been working in assisted memory senior care as an in-home care giver and also in a facility for about 5 years now. There, I prepared food, I did transferring, changes, cleaning, showering, medical applications, monitoring, feeding and behavioral and mental health as well. I don’t have much experience with children other than babysitting my nieces and nephew(toddlers and older)a little bit when I was younger but I really want to have more experience and learn more since I am currently taking a course on child development for my studies. I love children and I hope to learn more on how to care for them and how to do it well in the physical and mental aspects. I will try my best to provide a good and healthy environment for the children so they can learn and be their best selves. I have only learned to cook and clean at home and I find myself to be organized and a good thorough cleaner. So I don’t mind to offer some of my services in that! I grew up with dogs and caring for them and I love them so much as well as cats! I currently have two lovely cats and have lots of experience with cats as well. I am happy to offer dog or cat sitting services as well.
