Took a break from babysitting but looking for extra income again! I have 9+ years of experience working with kids! I babysat as my main income thru college and was a snowboard instructor for ages 4-7! I love to hangout with kids and I can promise I won’t sit on my phone the whole time like some sitters… I love to play & follow the kids lead in what we do! Happy to answer any questions about myself!!

Hi, I’m originally from New York but I’ve lived in the Seattle area for over 24 years. I have a background in early childhood education and have worked previously as a preschool teacher with children ages 2.5-7 years old. I’m passionate about many different educational philosophies and taught primarily in a Montessori inspired classroom. I have a love of reading especially children’s literature and I have experience working in a library specifically in the children’s section. In addition to my teaching experiences I’ve also worked for many years at Little Bit Therapeutic Riding Center in Duvall, WA as a volunteer in lessons with children. I recently spent a year in New York where I set up a classroom for my nieces (3,5,) and nephew (7) who were learning from home. I’m excited to work with children again. I think early childhood is a magical time where foundations can be built that last a lifetime. I’m available for date night care and I’m also open to other care opportunities. I look forward to meeting you. *I’m also an auntie to 15 nieces and nephews. ...Education: Emerson College Boston, MA BS Communications

Hi, I’m Lydia Grace! I recently graduated from the University of Washington with a BS degree in Biology and am taking two gap years before attending medical school with a focus in maternal-child health. I am also certified in CPR/First Aid for Adults, Children, and Infants, so safety and reliability are always my absolute top priorities in the household. I have worked as a childcare provider for 4 years, gaining extensive experience across a wide range of age groups and developing the skills to confidently care for up to four children at once. I care deeply about contributing to children’s growth and well-being, and I recognize the vital importance of age-appropriate activities. I love leading kids in engaging crafts, outdoor play, and reading to support their ongoing developmental milestones. Additionally, I have a background in tutoring and am always happy to help with homework, especially in STEM subjects and Spanish. I am also completely comfortable preparing healthy meals for the kids and keeping the house tidy and organized. I look forward to bringing a blend of fun, developmental engagement, and reliable, safety-focused care to your family! Please feel free to reach out with any questions. :)

She’s great with the kids and very sweet.
