Find experienced babysitters in Indianola, WA

I have 10 years of babysitter and nanny experience working with kids. I am patient, interact well with children and am also dedicated to the well upbringing and safety of children. Personally I've raised two girls of my own and is currently an empty nester. Now that I'm no longer a full time mom, I'm taking on some part time jobs assisting other busy parents. I'm also comfortable being around pets. My family moved to WA 23 years ago and I turned a full time mom out of choice. During those years I had the joy of caring for my kids and volunteered as a teacher helper when my younger child started elementary school, helping other children in school with reading and art projects. I taught elementary Singapore Mathematics and substituted for challenged students English classes on Saturdays with Northwest Chinese School when my daughters were attending Chinese lessons there for 3-4 years. Also privately tutored some Taiwanese kids and assisted non-fluent English speakers in the library ESL classes over the years. I believe with proper nurturing and providing children with early learning opportunity can enhance positive child development. I highly value quality education. I am good at reading books to kids and enjoy singing children's songs and rhymes with them. I am great at telling time-tested and children-proved stories. I am good at teaching and making art and craft projects. Also able to handle making healthy kids meals and cleaning after kids with ease. Since the past years to date I have been working part time and occasionally for families with kids ranging from 0 months to 12 years old. I have experience with baby and toddler care. I am currently available for date nights and weekends babysitting. Any other details beyond, I'll be glad to divulge during an interview. Thank you for your consideration.

My name is Samantha and I am a mother of two youngsters! I have worked for three years as a parent coordinator in co-op preschool with kids from 1 to 5. Additionally, I have nanny experience, new born night care experience and regular babysitter experience. Childcare is by far the best career choice I could have ever made. My approach to childcare is play based and rich in art, books, baking and any other activity kids enjoy. What makes me different from other babysitters is that I come to the job with a range of thoughtful and helpful ideas. Firstly, I help teach children effective solutions for issues that arise for anything from sharing to communicating their needs. Secondly, I go above and beyond to anticipate how I can help parents. This means that at the end of a babysitting night all the toys and dishes are all put back and clean. Lastly, I hope you'll choose me because I am a parent and that gives me an insight into what raising a child feels like. I bring ideas, empathy, and care into my work. I see childcare as a three fold job: caring for the children, the family as a whole and the house. Parents know their children better than anyone so I always take parent input seriously and appreciate any feedback along the way. Thank you so much!

Hello All, A little bit about me. I am a 39 year old female, full time, Special education Teacher. I have 20 years of experience working with kids and animals. I am more than happy and able to look after any furbabies you may have as well. I have a perfectly clean back ground and driving record. I have worked with many families and can provide more references on my behalf than necessary. I am still friends with all of the families I have worked for before I started teaching and I am currently in my 6th year of teaching. I have accomplished a lot in my life but the one thing that makes me happiest is what I do for a living. I am very chill, responsible and honest. I care very deeply for the kids / pets I watch and always aim to have long term connections with any family I work with. I am excellent with time management and homework help. I strongly encourage having an open communication level and understanding with parents because I feel that it is most beneficial for the children or pets concerned. I am firm when I need to be but always playful and goofy to keep the mood light. If you are wondering why I am trying to be a nanny as well as a teacher, its because I am moving to New Zealand next year which is very exspensive. I do have a spinal disability that prevents me from doing a lot of heavy excercise but I do not require a wheelchair or assistance. I am artistic, a great cook and love music. I spray paint galaxies, and draw mostly. I don't mind disney movies or fun games. I have a 12 year old Miniature Australian Shepard named Remedy who has been trained, is non-aggressive and is quite the gaurdian to children. She does not have to come along, just letting you know. With me you'll get a highly certified and reccomended "Cool Aunt," who enforces the rules, prioritizes homework and will act as a trusted adult / child advocate. Let me know if you have any questions.

Hi! I’m Rafaella — a caring, reliable, and experienced sitter with over 6 years of childcare experience. I truly love working with children and feel honored to be a part of their development and everyday moments. My journey started in Brazil, where I worked at a daycare and volunteered with 4–5-year-olds at my church. I later spent 2 years as an au pair in the U.S., caring for children ranging from 6 months to 8 years old. Those years helped me build strong skills in nurturing routines, supporting milestones, and creating a safe, fun environment for kids to grow. Currently, I’m working with a family caring for their sweet baby — I started when he was just 5 months old, and now he’s a happy, active 1-year-old! I’m experienced with infants, toddlers, and school-age kids, and I always bring patience, creativity, and responsibility to every family I work with. Whether it’s reading stories, planning activities, or helping with naps and meals, I’m here to support your child’s needs with love and care. Looking forward to connecting with your family!
