Find nannies in Brinnon, WA

I’ve been caring for children and families for most of my life, starting with babysitting at the age of 14. Over the years, that early experience grew into a long-term nanny position where I supported one family for six years, building strong relationships and becoming a trusted part of their daily lives. My approach is centered on creating a safe, engaging, and supportive environment where children can feel comfortable, have fun, and thrive. In addition to childcare, I spent four years as a personal assistant to a woman with advanced multiple sclerosis, which strengthened my patience, compassion, and ability to provide attentive, individualized care. I also have over 15 years of experience in pet sitting and animal care, and I’m very comfortable caring for both children and animals in a household setting. I’m dependable, warm, and highly attentive to the needs of those I care for, and I take pride in being someone families can trust and rely on.

I have a bachelor's degree in Child Development and Family Relations and have been employed as a caregiver for many families over many years. I have cared various ages ranging from newborn to teen and have experience working with developmentally disabled children with autism, down's syndrome and an infant who was born at 23 weeks with both hearing and vision loss. As a Doula I've provided services to several expectant mothers and their families offering prenatal, birth, and postpartum assistance. I believe children thrive in an environment where each unique family's priorities and wishes are paramount maintaining a sense of consistency, stability, and security. In addition to caring for your children's daily needs including cooking, laundry, and housekeeping, I enjoy interacting in guided play and age appropriate activities to support learning and development for all ages. Playing blocks to learn counting, colors and shapes with a toddler is just as fun as helping a teenager prepare for their first public speaking assignment for English class. Please feel free to contact me with any questions or concerns regarding your specific family needs. I look forward to the privilege of caring for you, your children, and your home.

Positive, patient, and attentive. I’m great at connecting with kids and animals, keeping things fun while staying organized, safe, and reliable every step of the way.

Hi! My name is Emma, and I am currently a sophomore at Olympic College. I grew up as the second-oldest of 10 children, and taking care of kids has always been something I have loved and wanted to do. I started babysitting at 11 years old because many families found me responsible and able to handle household and childcare tasks efficiently. Now I am 18, and even though I have only had seven years of "official" childcare experience, I have been helping care for kids since around the age of five and have always wanted to help my mom in any way that I could. I have taken a childcare and a first aid/CPR class in the past. I believe that my experience of growing up with so many children has made me responsible, intuitive, empathetic, and attuned to the needs and emotions of a child. My responsibilities have included morning and evening routines, diaper changes, cooking, cleaning, driving to/from places, and putting children to bed. I have also been working for three years now cleaning homes in my area, mostly for the elderly who are unable to do it on their own. I also frequently pet-sit and house-sit, and have worked as a household assistant with projects, cleaning, running errands, etc.

Look forward to hearing from you! Jana
