Find nannies in Bellingham, WA

Hi parents my name is Nadine. I am a responsible, caring, fun and reliable nanny. I've lived in Washington State for about 10 years now. I've been working with kids since I was 14 and love it. I started by watching my younger siblings and cousins, then kids in my neighborhood. I also volunteered as a teacher’s aide during my junior and senior year in high school. Afterwards I joined urbansitter when I started college and have been with them since then. An example of some of the things I like to do with kids are taking them outside to either the park or just the backyard to get away from the screen, if the weather permits, but if not, I keep them occupied at home with arts and crafts, reading, board games, etc. I would be a great date-night, part-time and/or weekend sitter. Minimum hours: 3 hours Cancellation policy: If possible if a parent needs to cancel a job please let me know 24 hours in advance. If the booking in cancelled in less than 12 hours I do expect to be paid 50% of the agreed hours.

Throughout high school and college I was a nanny for two kids in elementary school. Once I graduated, I got a job as a first grade teacher. Then I moved to teach 5th and 6th grade, as well as coach middle school soccer. During this time I spent my evenings babysitting young toddlers and babies in my neighborhood. Now I have my own kids, 1 and 3. We enjoy spending our days outside, climbing trees, and playing in the dirt.

Hello! I'm a compassionate, responsible, and dedicated caregiver with several years of professional experience providing care, comfort, and companionship to others.

I'm currently a sophomore at Western Washington University where I'm developing an interdisciplinary major that combines Neuroscience (particularly fear sciences), messaging, and comparative cultural studies. Prior to moving out west I lived in Norway and went to Voss Folk School where I 'studied' backcountry skiing and analog photography. In my free time I love to be outdoors either taking the time to slow down or get my heart racing. In addition to being outside I love to work with my hands crafting. I love to try new things and would consider myself a jack of all trades. Childcare experience: Throughout high school I nannied for two families (Nevilles: 3 girls and two boys ranging 4-12 years old + Dientenbergers: 2 boys and one girl ranging 2-10 years old). I grew up on the same block as both of these families and have a lot of love for them. Watching them grow has been a pleasure and I still get together with them every time I'm back home. My work for these families varied over the years, but generally I'd watch them after school and late on weekends helping them with homework, going on adventures, crafting and doing household chores. For the past 3 summers I've worked at Camp du Nord, a family camp near the Boundary Water Canoe Area. My first two years working at du Nord I was on program staff. Each week on program staff I was assigned an age group ranging from 0-14 years old that I would look after in the morning. In the afternoons I would lead activities (such as paddling 101, soccer, beading etc) for kids and adults. This year I took on a lead position in the garden. In the mornings I'd have age groups and adults come into the garden and tell them about what I was growing, different agricultural techniques, fun facts and practical uses for plants. In the afternoons I'd lead classes such as pickling, making plant dyes, and tea foraging hikes. I love working with kids and feel I can learn a lot from them. I find their curiosity and enthusiasm eye opening and hope to preserve a positive view of our world. I understand how receptive and malleable young minds are and hope that in every interaction I can facilitate their development. I'm all about having fun, but also know how to take control and assert myself when needed.
