I am a former Social Worker (10 years in the field). After becoming a mother I became aware of how exhausting my career had become and felt that I wasn't able to be there for my own daughter. 3 years ago I started working as a nanny and couldn't be happier. I have had the joy of working with some lovely families here in the Seattle area. Becoming a nanny was a natural transition for me. A wise man once told me "Figure out what you like to do best and then figure out a way to get get paid doing just that". That is exactly what I have done. Being a parent has been the greatest joy. I love caring for children and especially being there through developmental milestones. As a parent, I know that leaving your child with someone who not only keeps your child safe but also Read more cares for them, can give you a great peace of mind. I strive for open communication with the families I work for and want to share in the delightful moments with your child/children.
