Hi there! I am a recent graduate from the University of Washington with a BA in Journalism and Public Interest Communication and a double major in Philosophy. I have had the privilege of babysitting children from the ages of 3-16 over the last 9 years. Additionally, through my business, Marina Teaching LLC, I have taught children with all different abilities and backgrounds. My experiences have equipped me with the skills and understanding necessary to provide exceptional childcare with a commitment to ensuring a safe, nurturing, and stimulating environment. Skills and Abilities: One of my key strengths lies in my ability to adapt to the needs of each child I babysit. I am not just a babysitter, but a homework helper, a cook (the kids always rate my mac and cheese with 5 stars), and a safe driver. I take pride in maintaining a clean and organized environment, ensuring that your Read more home is as spotless as you left it! Passions and Activities: I love encouraging kids to stay active and healthy by playing sports like soccer or basketball together. Additionally, I love to read, craft, and create fun stories with the kids. Thank you for considering me to be a part of your child's life adventure!
