I’m currently looking for part or full time positions. Most recently worked with a two year old and his one year old twin brothers. I’ve worked 1:1 with autistic kiddos working on speech, working through behavioral “problems” and have done sitdown table work as well with some kids in my class my first year in the school district preschool (I left that job after Covid hit and they wanted us to go back in person as well as conflict with the teacher I was a para for.) Working with kids is my biggest passion and creating connections and special bonds with them is my biggest joy. I’m very crafty and artistic and love to incorporate that in any way I can when I’m babysitting. Very basic knowledge of ASL (fingerspelling, common signs (milk, drink, eat/food, please, thank you, want, need, help, etc.)). **Fully covid Vaccinated! And boosted!**

Hello, I'm Annelise! I have over 17 years of paid babysitting/nanny experience with children ranging from newborn to preteen, most extensively with newborns and toddlers, and have experience caring for up to five children at a time. I enjoy art projects, outdoor activities, reading, sports, and playing make believe =) I can help with homework, meal prep, and light household chores. I also love animals and have plenty of experience with pets. I have a car and a clean driving record so transport to/from school or extracurricular activities is no problem! I’m also CPR and First Aid certified. One thing to be aware of is I do take 3 weeks off every fall to travel internationally, as well as a week in the spring. This is nonnegotiable, but you would be aware of the dates months in advance. If you think I would be a good fit for your family please feel free to contact me! I look forward to hearing from you!

With over 20 years of experience as a babysitter and nanny, I've had the pleasure of caring for children of all ages and backgrounds. Spending time with kids brings me immense joy, and while I'm excited for the future when I have little ones of my own, right now, I'm fully dedicated to creating fun and nurturing experiences for other families. Beyond childcare, I'm more than happy to lend a hand with household tasks like laundry, light cleaning, and meal prep. And if you're in need of a break, count me in for family vacations—I'll make sure the kids have a blast while you enjoy some well-deserved relaxation.

What a treasure! This lovely young lady was prompt, capable, easy-going and most of all, my 20-month old son liked her. We were only able to use her once, when we visited Laguna Beach, but she'd definitely be our go-to girl if we lived locally.

Maria did a wonderful job with our daughter. She did everything we asked and sent us photos of our daughter having a great time. We came home to a tidied up house and a soundly sleeping kiddo. We are very satisfied with her care.

Hi, my name is Kathey. I have been providing care for infants and toddlers in my own home for the past eight years. I am patient, nurturing, and reliable. Open communication with parents is very important to me. I treat the children I care for as if they are my own. I retired from the State of Washington in 2017, and began providing care for infants and toddlers shortly thereafter. I am currently caring for a 2 1/2 little girl who has been with me since she was 4 months old. The family is expecting their second baby, and they have decided to have the children's Grandmother provide future care beginning the end of April. I live in a very nice home in NE Olympia on three acres. I have been married for 26 years, and have a 19-year old son who will be leaving for college in the Fall. I have a well-equipped playroom/sleeping area catered to infants and toddlers. I only take one family at a time, so your child will get my full attention. I understand you are looking for care in your home. I would love the opportunity to talk with you, and possibly have you come to my home to see if this might be a good fit for your family. I am more than happy to provide references upon request. Kathey
