Hi everybody! I am a certified math teacher and a boys' basketball coach at a high school in Renton. I attended school at the University of Washington where I obtained my Master's in Teaching in 2020. I've been working with kids for 10 years and have babysat for the past 5 years. I've cared for many families, mostly in date night roles, with kids aged 1 and up. In addition to date nights, I've also helped with weekends/overnights, after school, and full-time babysitting in the summer. Working with kids is something I enjoy doing and is the reason I became a teacher and a coach. I like to spend the time interacting and engaging with the kids. I focus on making sure they have a safe and fun time while in my care. Thank you for taking the time to read a little bit about me! Please feel free to reach out if you have any questions. I'm excited for the opportunity to work with you and your family!

Hello, my name is Nguyen Nickerson. I am a mature, responsible, devoted and reliable nanny with 10 years experience as a professional nanny in Seattle. I have experience with kids from 2 months to 12 year old. I have 6 years experience with infants and toddlers. I simply love children, love caring for them and find them fascinating, and I am seeking further nanny work to continue doing what I love and broadening my experience. A little about myself: I graduated with a Bachelor of English from University of Social Science and Humanities of Ho Chi Minh city, Vietnam in 2013. I am CPR/First Aid trained. I am bilingual in English and Vietnamese and would love to teach Vietnamese to the children that I take care of. I am a Mental Health First Aider. I participated in the Caregiver and Child Intervention 6 weeks program with Seattle Children’s Play Therapy. I have finished The Parent Leadership Training Institute at Everett Community College fall 2021. I have a clean background check. I have a Subaru car which is insuranced with a clean driving record. I am more than happy to drive kids to educational activities such as story times, baby and toddler gym, zoo, aquarium… I am up to date with vaccinations including Covid, flu shot, Tdap. I pay attention to details. I design daily activities based on parents' wants and child’s needs, making sure children hit their development milestones, and encouraging learning social and emotional skills via play. I want to help children advance their language development through reading, singing and talking to children. I coordinated with parents to develop systems that encourage positive behaviors. I manage a calendar of events and appointments including lessons, playdates… I want to make sure I am able to connect on a deep level, build a safe, loving relationship and offer a stable environment to nurture your child. I want to have open communications with the parents and be a part of your family.

I love kids and am experienced with all ages. I currently teach in elementary. I have worked in an early learning daycare with infants to pre-k. I’m looking for some occasional babysitting jobs that would most likely be best for evenings, date nights, or on weekends. I am CPR certified.

I am a child care teacher, nanny, and now mom to a 16 year old. I work as a school district ECE teacher Sept-June and am doing some Weekend care for extra money. For a number of years I was a nanny in exchange for rent and did after hours care and evening and weekend routines with children 1 years old to age 10, including helping with chores and school work and getting them ready for bed. I enjoy doing cooking, dramatic play, and art with children and I make sure to get them some exercise and quiet time when with them for long stretches of time.

Hi- My name is Dylan! I enjoy partnering with parents to ensure children receive the nurturing, consistency, care, and fun they need. I am a kid at heart and love to get down on the floor (or up in a play structure) to play with kids, encouraging their imagination, doing age appropriate science and art projects, adventuring outdoors, and facilitating their brain development through play, reading, and singing. It is important to me to model empathy, respect, and acceptance with the goal of empowering children to solve problems. Additionally, I am very skilled at multi-tasking and time management to ensure the safety and well being of all children in my care. Biggest strength: I give kids the attention they deserve! I am regularly referred to by parents as the 'kid whisperer' or 'Pied Piper.' While some believe I have magical powers (especially toddlers!), in truth, I am simply present and attuned to their needs and wants, through the laughter and tears. Experience: I have over 15 years experience as a babysitter and nanny for children birth to 17 years of age, providing care for up to 5 children at a time both in the family's home and traveling. The majority of my experience is with infants and toddlers. I have volunteered as a child care provider for Pinay sa Seattle, co-facilitating a childcare group during meetings and events for up to 8 children ages 8 months-7 years. Additionally, I have experience as a birth and postpartum doula. I have worked with single parent and blended families, have experience with twins, triplets, ADD/ADHD, autism, food allergies, trauma, and preemie infant health issues. Education: BA in Liberal Arts: Leadership & Human Services, Antioch University - Seattle, 2014 Somatics Practitioner Training, Generative Somatics, 2018 Embodied Social Justice Certificate, The Embody Lab, 2022 Newborn Care Specialist, DNT Network, 2025 Infant Sleep Consultant, DNT Network, 2025 Infant/Child CPR/First Aid, renewed 12/25 COVID/Flu boosters, Fall 2025 TDap, current Work History: 8+ years in social work directly supporting homeless youth and adults living with mental illness, substance use disorder, and disabilities

Hello families! My name is Daikwan (however, I do go by Ryan). I am currently employed through Bellevue School District working as an educator for 3rd and 4th grade students. My prior experience working with children include working as a TA in a middle and elementary school setting, summer camp/after-school educator, and 2 years of prior nanny/babysitter experience as well. I have been in the Seattle area for about 1 year and 3 months currently and I have loved every second of the being in the PNW. Originally from the east coast, I started my chapter in Washington last September to embrace a fresh start, establish and develop new connections, and to work towards completing my last year of nursing school.

I believe children should be nutured with love & respect. An educational interaction should be carried out daily like learning numbers & colors. Children are a precious gift. I worked for 11yrs as a para educator for the Renton School District,grades k-12 and loved it very much. I've cared for triplet boys from 6wks until they were 3yrs old and at that time they started preschool. I love to Read and interact our stories with pictures and music. I will always have a journal of your baby’s activities for the day including diaper changes and bottles. I will bathe baby daily if you so choose.

Hi, I'm Myka! I am university student in Seattle and hoping to achieve my bachelor's degree in Developmental Psychology within the next two years. As of right now I am working at early childhood, education school working with children ages 4 months to 6 years. However, will be returning back to campus in early September.

I have a strong background in childcare and have worked with children of all ages for over 4 years. I'm skilled in creating fun and engaging activities that promote learning and creativity. I'm always ready to lend a helping hand with homework or chores. I'd describe my personality as outgoing, compassionate, and lively. In my spare time, I like to explore the water with my golden doodle or try new recipes in the kitchen. I hope to hear from you soon :)
