Find nannies in Vancouver, WA

Dear prospective family, I'm a fun loving, caring, gentle person, while knowing when there is a need to set boundaries. I know I was out of this profession for awhile (14yrs), before I took a six month job with a family from Brilliant Nanny before the kids returning to daycare for the social aspect. MY down time has taught me with everything going on in the world, and if you don't love what you're doing find what you do. I remembered how much I enjoyed being a nanny, and the fond memories, and watching the children learn and grow into young adults. After a 12yr job with 2x children we are still in each other's lives after 20 years. My time in retail has taught me patience, to be calm, that every situation is different, and excellent communication is key. Which can be applied as being a nanny also. Each of these skills I think can be used while being a nanny. I'm certified by Northwest Nanny Institute so I have child development classes/ child education, age apprroitate activities, separation anxiety, nutrition, sleep routine, and more. For 2mo I was responsible for two 3yr olds. During are days together: I provided structured activities including arts and crafts projects, baking, walks, and physical activities, as well as reading time, building forts, child led play, and trips to the park. Also assisted with potty training.  I would prepare snacks, and meals. This was a short term contract due to school starting. Before that I cared for 6 months I cared for an 8 month old and 3 1/2 year old. Our days consisted of baking, arts and crafts, dance parties, imaginary play, and getting outside for daily exercise. Lastly I took a short term (2 month contract) with two 3yr olds. This was short term care due to children starting pre-school. During the days we would spend are time doing baking, arts and crafts, reading, child led play,, and outdoor fun. I'm looking to work 25-30 hrs in a 4 day period or less a week, and willing to travel NE, N, SE, and parts of SW. Thank you for your time.

I love being a nanny since it is so much fun to build relationships with kids and watch them grow and develop their interests, character and personality. Kids are always hopeful, positive and strive to do what they want to do. The sky is the limit for them and I love that about kids. I strive to be a positive influence and romodel to all kids and I value making a positive impact in their lives. Being a nanny isn't just a job, its a calling! My experience: ~Being a nanny for multiple families, including kids with special needs. I have worked for multiple nanny and babysitting companies ~I have worked as a Behavior Technician as well as a Special Needs Paraeducator for various school districts. Both one-on-one and in group settings with kids with a variety of behavioral issues and developmental disabilities, mostly on the autism spectrum. ~Academically I have experience being a tutor and am very familiar with K-12 curriculum in the area, mostly at the elementary level. ~When I was a Teacher Counselor at a residential treatment facility I helped with leading, mentoring, modeling, facilitating groups and upbuilding youth socioemotionally.  ~I have 3 kids so I'm very familiar with how difficult it is to raise kids these days. It is definitely the hardest job being a parent but its the most rewarding also!

Hi! My name is Maddie, I’m a dedicated and experienced childcare provider with over 10 years of professional experience caring for children of all ages. I have basic medical training, including a BLS certification and CNA training, so safety and preparedness are always top priorities. I love supporting kids through hands-on, Montessori-inspired learning, because in my opinion children learn best by doing, exploring, and engaging with the world around them. I enjoy planning fun outings and little adventures, bringing along crafts and creative activities that spark curiosity and imagination. I have a reliable and safe SUV and a clean driving record, and am happy to transport kiddos as needed.I also prepare nutritious, kid friendly meals and when possible have the kids helping with each step. My goal is to create a safe, nurturing, and enriching environment where children feel supported, confident, and excited to learn. I also have plenty of experience running errands, housekeeping, and meal prepping. As well as pet care, and general household management. I’d be happy to take on any of these rolls as needed.
