Howdy! My childcare career began about twelve years ago as a weekly volunteer and eventually as lead teacher at my church in San Antonio, Texas. It was there I met families that would become my very first clients. As time went by, my business grew fruitfully! I also began substitute teaching at ECC and elementary schools, including in special needs classrooms. In 2019, I returned to school to complete my bachelor’s degree in accounting. At this time, I babysat only for my most well established families, a few of which are my references. After graduating in December 2021, I moved to Austin for my first full-time accounting position. After a year however, a company-wide RIF impacted my position, which allowed me to think boldly about my next steps. I was happily given the opportunity to move here to the PNW to experience a whole new environment. I absolutely love the sprawling natural features that surround me! My new accounting position is full-time, but I've opened my schedule for weekday evening and weekend childcare to supplement my income. Sunday mornings I attend and serve at church, so I am available after 1:00 pm. - 12 years of childcare experience as a sitter, “manny,” tutor, substitute teacher, and volunteer - Experience caring for all ages, multiples, in-home and on outings - Experience in homes and classrooms of children with special needs - Flexible childcare style to be consistent with your family’s methods - Welcoming and open-minded to all family types and beliefs - Energetic and positive attitude towards learning and play - Safety conscious and always present in the moment - Pet friendly, zero allergies, non-smoker/drugs - CPR and first-aid certified I can provide enhanced background check results from 8/29/23. It is a bit pricey to renew so I've chosen not to. However, I'd gladly complete another check if a family wishes to purchase one on my behalf. Same for motor vehicle check (perfect driving record). I’m open to provide transportation for outings using my newly purchased SUV. I have an adjustable carseat and booster, or we can use yours. Trips to the park and playgrounds are my favorite! I’m looking forward to chatting with you about your family’s childcare needs. Feel free to send me a message any time!

Nothing better than watching the kids and support them to grow, play, and learn new things ;)

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.

A little bit about me. I am a kind, patient, loving, easy going, honest, reliable, caring and a fun person. The reason why I love working with children is because I love kids. For me it is a joy to interact and play with children and to help them explore their world. I like to spend time getting to know them and really understand who they are inside. For me it is important to spend meaningful time with them where I encourage them to learn in a positive, safe, healthy and fun way. I honestly believe that kids are the greatest gift of life, they need to be loved and to be listened to. Also, they need positive attention to help them grow healthy, spiritually, mentally, and physically. They require an enormous amount of patience -- it pays off in so many ways. I love to work with parents who understand that they need to spend time with their children but who are busy with their professional lives. This is where I work with the parents to come up with a plan so you as a parent can spend the quality time with your children and allow me to manage the day to day activities when you are unable to spend time with them.
