Meet Doris

  • Comfortable with pets

Hello, and thank you for visiting my profile! I have 10 years of babysitting experience and have been working the past 2 years as a full time nanny. My experience ranges from caring for infants to older gradeschool children. Many of the families I have worked with have 3-5 children, so I am comfortable with being responsible for several children at one time. My most recent nanny position (August 2012-present) included caring for newborn (now one-year-old!) twins, and I have loved the joy and excitement of caring for multiples! I will be starting classes at The Seattle School of Theology and Psychology in Fall of 2014 to obtain my Masters in Counseling Psychology, and am looking for part-time work as a nanny or babysitter. Though I enjoy working with any age, I especially love caring for infants and babies. I am involved in music and art, and like to incorporate Read more these when I am babysitting. In addition to child care, I have had the opportunity work with children in educational settings; I have taught theatre groups and classes (my bachelor's degree is in theatre) and have also done some substitute teaching. It was a great privilege to encourage learning through play, and I try to bring elements of this into my work with children. If you feel that I may be a good fit for your family or if you have questions for me, please feel free to contact me through Sitter City or to call the number listed in my profile. I look forward to having a conversation! **Letters of reference and references available upon request.

I had the opportunity to correspond with and interview Doris in person. She was articulate, responsive, and thoughtful. I only wish I could have moved quickly enough to hire her. Her references were outstanding; her personality was easy-going, attentive, educated, professional and kind. I felt lucky to have met with her.
