Hello! I have been babysitting and nannying children of various ages for 11 years, and as an oldest child, I have been helping my parents care for my sisters for years. I have have earned a Doctorate in Physical Therapy, and I am very passionate about caring for people to help improve their physical, mental, and emotional health. I am bilingual in English and Spanish. I have Basic Life Support certification (this includes training in CPR, AED, and the Heimlich maneuver). I work M-Th as a physical therapist, and I am looking to babysit/nanny on the weekends to add some fun to my week! In my free time, I love to cook and go for walks with my fiancé. I would love to have the opportunity to get to know you and your family.

Lucia G., Babysitter in Ferndale, WA 98248 with 3 years of paid experience

I love working with children, and this is reflected by my work history. I have spent sunmers working at two different summer camps and managed groups of 15-30 elementary-aged children (ages 5-11) at a time. I have also worked in three different classes as a student teacher, working with 2nd, 3rd, and 6th grade students. I am currently a student at Northeastern University, in Boston, MA, studying Psychology and Data Science. From my experience, I have learned that it is of the upmost importance that children have access to supportive, understanding adults, and I know that my education and experience has prepared me to be that for your children.

Isabella is honestly the best! She brings such a warm, positive energy. My daughter absolutely loves her and gets so excited every single time she comes over. She doesn't just watch her, she’s right there playing and fully engaging with her. It gives me total peace of mind knowing my daughter is in such great hands. We couldn’t recommend her enough!

Brynn O., Babysitter in Ferndale, WA 98248 with 6 years of paid experience

Hey! I'm Brynn:) A little bit about me: I'm currently a sophomore at Western Washington University where I'm developing an interdisciplinary major that combines Neuroscience (particularly fear sciences), messaging, and comparative cultural studies. Prior to moving out west I lived in Norway and went to Voss Folk School where I 'studied' backcountry skiing and analog photography. In my free time I love to be outdoors either taking the time to slow down or get my heart racing. In addition to being outside I love to work with my hands crafting. I love to try new things and would consider myself a jack of all trades. Childcare experience: Throughout high school I nannied for two families (Nevilles: 3 girls and two boys ranging 4-12 years old + Dientenbergers: 2 boys and one girl ranging 2-10 years old). I grew up on the same block as both of these families and have a lot of love for them. Watching them grow has been a pleasure and I still get together with them every time I'm back home. My work for these families varied over the years, but generally I'd watch them after school and late on weekends helping them with homework, going on adventures, crafting and doing household chores. For the past 3 summers I've worked at Camp du Nord, a family camp near the Boundary Water Canoe Area. My first two years working at du Nord I was on program staff. Each week on program staff I was assigned an age group ranging from 0-14 years old that I would look after in the morning. In the afternoons I would lead activities (such as paddling 101, soccer, beading etc) for kids and adults. This year I took on a lead position in the garden. In the mornings I'd have age groups and adults come into the garden and tell them about what I was growing, different agricultural techniques, fun facts and practical uses for plants. In the afternoons I'd lead classes such as pickling, making plant dyes, and tea foraging hikes. I love working with kids and feel I can learn a lot from them. I find their curiosity and enthusiasm eye opening and hope to preserve a positive view of our world. I understand how receptive and malleable young minds are and hope that in every interaction I can facilitate their development. I'm all about having fun, but also know how to take control and assert myself when needed.

Hi, I’m Sujina! I have around 2 years of experience as both a nanny and babysitter, along with experience as a lead and assistant teacher in licensed daycare and preschool settings. I’m CPR/First Aid certified and have completed Washington State’s 30-hour STARS (Child Care Basics) training. I love working with children and getting to know each child’s personality. Whether I’m caring for a baby, playing with toddlers, or spending time with older kids, I enjoy being part of their day and building a relationship with them. I love spending time outside, reading books, doing crafts, and getting to know what each child enjoys. I’d love to learn more about your family and see if we’d be a good fit!

I am a nurturing loving mother, auntie, godmother. I love children of all ages. I believe each age has its own special milestones. My first job as a 15 year old was at a daycare. I worked there for 3 years and enjoyed it so much. Later in years I moved to Washington and was a nanny for twin babies. This was such a fulfilling and fun job. I will bring much love, affection and fun to your little ones 💛
