Hi there! My name is Margie and I've just moved to Bellingham. I have over eight years of childcare experience and excited to have more! For six years I was the lead counselor on a community farm in Portland, OR, for ages 5 to 12. We would play games in the garden, put on puppet shows, learn about wildlife, all while staying safe and healthy during the COVID-19 pandemic. I also enjoyed being a teacher for cooking classes where we'd cook yummy, kid-friendly meals with ingredients the kids harvested. I recently worked with the Corvallis Environmental Center and local elementary schools with farm and ecology based curriculum. If you couldn't tell, I am very passionate about our planet and love teaching little ones the importance of care and kindness for it. On top of that, I'm known to be bubbly, patient, observant, and understand the craziness kids can bring to our lives. I am Red Cross First Aid/CPR certified, have a car, and am great at cooking and keeping spaces tidy. I love taking children on nature walks, craft making, and telling stories. I have the most experience with kids ages 5 to 13, but have plenty of babysitting experience with ages 6 months- 4 year olds. Excited to help out your family! -Margie

Hello, I have plenty experience with children of all age ranges. I have worked at a daycare and also have been a previous nanny. I even have been a mentor and tutor for elementary and middle school students. I am free spirited yet responsible, and I always have fun with the children in my care. I have taken a STARS course and also have early childhood education college credit. Not only am I great with children but I know how to meet their needs from an educational standpoint. If you’re interested in my care please feel free to reach and out message me!

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 💛

Hello! My name is Mary Caitlin A. I have over 20 years of working with children and families. I have worked as a nanny for over 15 years with various families. I have 10 years of experience being a preschool teacher and early learning educator. I earned my BA in Therapeutic Recreation from Western Washington University.

Hello, my name is Kelly. I am a homeschooling, single parent of three girls. I am looking for a babysitting/nanny position with a great family, so I can support my kids. Also willing to do light housekeeping and assist with pet care. Here is a little about me and my childcare experience. In addition to raising my own kids for the last 15 years, I also have been a private nanny and baby sitter for a few families. In all I have over 23 years of hands on experience in all aspects of caring for children, from newborn to teenager, and children with special needs such as colic, anxiety, panic and social disorders, autism spectrum disorder, learning disabilities and ADHD. I enjoy playing with children, both indoors and out, reading to children, coloring and crafts, playing board games, doing nature hunts (like a treasure hunt with "nature") and taking walks together. I think every child is a gift and a treasure and I absolutely cannot imagine a more rewarding thing to do than to care for children. My hobbies are spending time with my children and cats, vegetarian/ healthy eating, going for walks, baking (regular and gluten free), and I really love animals. I received my diploma for child daycare in April 2002. I also have my certification for CPR (adult, child and infant) and First Aid. Background check, driving record and references available on request. I look forward to meeting you and your family soon!

Kids are my favorite people. I was a full-time nanny for three children for over 4 years — twins who were infants when I started and their four-year-old sibling. I was there for all of it: diapers, bottles, naps, first words, first steps, and every skinned knee in between. Crafts, forts, and afternoons outside were part of our daily rhythm, and I drove the school and activity run too. I'm especially good with babies and toddlers, but I genuinely enjoy every age. I keep the day structured because kids do better when they know what's coming, and I'd rather stay a step ahead of a transition than manage the meltdown after. I'm patient with big feelings, calm when things get loud, and I'm very active and outdoorsy — so getting kids outside, moving, and exploring comes naturally. Often enough kids need quiet time or a little personal space and I'm happy to help around the house when that occurs. I'm CPR and First Aid certified, a former lifeguard, and I have my own car and insurance.

I love being around kids, doing activities with them like going outside, reading books and doing puzzles. I have been babysitting since I was about 12 years old. I am currently a college student at WWU and I am getting my bachelors degree in Urban Planning. I love reading, walking my dog, going to the beach and trying new foods.
