Find nannies in Edgewood, WA

Hi my name is shani and I’m a college student. Im currently offering childcare services. I love babysitting and have been watching infants, toddlers and kids since I was 16 years old. My services include tutoring and crafts, but more so keeping children engaged and happy while their parents are at work. I’ve been a caretaker for my nieces and nephew both the ages of 3 and 4. I’m comfortable with making meals or doing light housework. I cannot drive at the moment.

Hello! My name is Agostina (Agos), I am from Argentina and I am an infant Qualified nanny (Mom as well). I’ve been working with different families taking care of toddlers and infants! I am really good managing the schedule (naps, playing time, food, outdoor activities, play dates, tummy time and more.) I also worked as an Au Pair for two years during 2018 and 2019, so I am pretty good following family rules, maintaining a good communication with the parents and prioritizing always what’s best for the kid/kids. Currently looking for occasional or part time opportunities around Tacoma and surrounding areas. Please feel free to ask me any questions and I am more than happy to give you references as well.

I am a caring and loving mother of two wonderful boys, aged 8 and 5. Motherhood is a great joy, inspiration, and source of inner strength for me. My children love me very much, and we spend a lot of time together — playing, learning, growing, and enjoying every day. I have a degree in music education for children. I truly love working with kids, seeing their genuine emotions, and helping them discover their creativity and love for art. Kindness, patience, a positive attitude, and an individual approach to each child are very important to me in my work. I am a positive, creative, and responsible person who leads a healthy lifestyle — I don’t smoke and don’t drink alcohol. I love creating an atmosphere of harmony, warmth, and joy around me.

I raised 5 of my own children, 4 boys and 1 daughter, from birth to adulthood. I also have 2 granddaughters 5 and 7 years old. I have lots of patience, tons of energy for many activities children love to do, and a lot of love and caring to give. Children are such a blessing and a great joy. I will always carry out your wishes for your family because you have sacrificed, and your role and wishes are very important. I do really love animals, and I have cared for two dogs, cats, rabbits, and birds, that were part of my family. If someone asked me what I would do, if their child did not do as they were asked while I was caring for them on a babysitting job, I would tell them… I would like to have had a conversation with the parents before they left their children in my care, as to how they wanted me to handle that situation. I would like to follow what the parents wishes are, because you cannot make a child do anything. although you can make the parents happy by following their wishes. I have had two previous jobs working with seniors in the past. The first one was mostly companionship, but I also cooked, took her to appointments and to run errands, we would also go walking for a little exercise, and to keep her agile and able to have balance and strength. She had great stories that I would listen to, and we would connect over them… she was a great lady. The second job was working with a gentleman who needed driving to appointments, grocery stores and to the gym. He had macular degeneration so he could see, but not enough to drive. I was very patient and understanding with him, as he did suffer from some age related dementia (he was in his early 90s). I would help him with household cleaning, chores and companionship, he liked to share his life over lunch that I would prepare for him. I also helped him with his finances and writing checks to pay his bills. He was very spunky and entertaining, and he liked to talk about his life when his wife was still alive.
