Hello! I am a highly experienced nanny, currently seeking a part-time nanny/babysitting job. Making your choice in nannies is important, so here is a little more about me! I graduated with my degree in Public Health from the University of Washington in 2018 and am currently back at the UW obtaining my Masters Degree in Clinical Social Work. My professional passions surround direct mental health practice with youth and families, as I truly believe that loving, supportive and appropriate adult relationships are critical to the establishment of lifelong health in children. I have been involved in childcare for as long as I can remember, actively nannying for families in my hometown, and working for a nannying service throughout my undergraduate college. As a well-rounded nanny, I have a wide and diverse experience with responsibilities and feel comfortable fulfilling any request parents may have while simultaneously providing a fun, safe and Read more nurturing environment for all children. I believe it is critical to be a trustworthy role model for kids to look up to, and strive to not just be a nanny, but additionally provide the family and children with safe, friendly and nurturing care specialized to the needs of the specific child. I believe in being optimistic and loving in all situations, meeting the child where they are at in order to provide them with the optimal space to learn, play and grow. All this being said, I am currently looking to make a family's life easier with part-time (and relatively flexible!) work, and look forward to any opportunity I can have to care for your wonderful children 😊 Thank you!
