Hello parents and guardians! I am a full-time law student at Seattle University and I am looking for occasional babysitting jobs to supplement my varying school schedule. I nannied full and part time for a family in Seattle: two kids (7 & 12 years old) and two Australian Shepards for almost 2 years. I am happy to provide them as a reference. I grew up with two younger brothers (6 & 8 years younger) who I have helped raise since they were born. Over the years that's included changing their diapers, putting them down for naps, cooking meals for them, hours of backyard adventures, and lots of rides to and from practices. In addition to my experience with my siblings, I have been babysitting for family friends for the past 5-6 years. I am responsible, organized, and I absolutely love playing with kids. Whether it's taking them to the park Read more or playing with toys at home, I love staying engaged with kiddos. I have a reliable vehicle (2016 Chevy Trax). I also love cooking and baking and will always tidy up before I go! I also have lots of experience dogsitting, so I welcome a pet-friendly home!
