Hi, my name is Talina Hall (pronounced Tuh-lee-nuh) and I am located in Tacoma. I’m 23 years old and currently majoring in Early Childhood Education with a minor in Child Psychology. I am certified in CPR, First Aid, and Montessori teaching. I also hold a valid food handler’s card. I have experience caring for children ranging from newborns to 13 years of age. I can assist with: Sleep training Establishing and maintaining routines Homework help Activity planning Grooming (hair, clothing, and diapering) Cooking Light housekeeping A little more about me: During high school, I volunteered at my local Boys and Girls Club, where I created and directed a two-year program for 4th and 5th grade girls. I mentored them by providing a safe space for open discussion, organizing activities, and helping with homework. After that, I worked as a nanny for about three years before preparing to attend college. While in college, I worked part-time as a caregiver at a senior living facility. During school breaks, I continued nannying on and off. I also have occasional experience with dog sitting, which includes walking, feeding, and playtime. Thank you for taking the time to read a bit about me. I hope to have the opportunity to provide the best care for your family! 😊

Hi, I’m Arianne. I’ve been a nanny for 12 years. I have Nannie’s all ages from infancy-pre teen. I tend to stay in long term positions if it’s the right fit. The last two families I have worked for have been long term. I was with my last family for 5 years and I still continue to do babysitting gigs for them when needed. They have 6 kids but I primarily cared for the 3 youngest (8,5, and 1). I have been with my current family for 2 years. They have 3 kids (8, 6, and 3) The youngest, I believe, will start preschool in the fall, so I’m putting feelers out for a new position. I do like to let potential families know a couple things before we proceed just not to waste anyone’s time and just in case values are extremely different. 1. I have a lot of tattoos and some piercings. But I do not do drugs or smoke and I rarely even drink. I am open to drug testing and full background checks. 2. I am a lesbian. I know that may not be acceptable to all people so I like to let people know beforehand. 3. This is my sole source of income. If you hire me on, I will need 40 guaranteed hours and sick pay. If for any reason needs change, I will need notice a month in advance. Thanks for taking the time to read this. And if I don’t hear from you, good luck finding an amazing caregiver.

I have eight years of experience as a preschool teacher and about 15 years of experience as a babysitter/nanny. As a preschool teacher, I worked with children aged 12 months to 5 years, caring for their basic needs and helping them with activities to develop their mental, social and emotional skills. I was a summer camp counselor for four years, which gave me a lot of experience with outdoor activities and crafts, and with interacting with children of all ages. I have babysat children aged 1 month to 12+ years. I am a positive person who believes in listening, having fun, and helping every child reach their full potential. I also previously worked as a home visitor, serving low-income families with children age birth to three. Now I recently got my Masters in Social Work and working during the day doing therapy with teens, but I am free to pick up evening and weekend babysitting! Looking forward to meeting you!

Hello, I'm Myka! I'm a university student based in Tacoma, working towards my bachelor's degree in Developmental Psychology, which I plan to complete within the next year. Recently, I earned my Behavioral Therapy credentials and have had the chance to assist many families in the ABA community. As I return to school and step away from my role as a therapist, I'm hoping to find another family to work with during the academic year while I study full-time. With over seven years of experience caring for children of all ages, I have a strong background in childcare. I enjoy designing fun and engaging activities that promote learning and creativity, and I am always eager to help. I'd describe myself as outgoing, compassionate, and lively. In my free time, I love exploring the water with my golden doodle or trying out new recipes in the kitchen. Thank you, and I look forward to hearing from you soon! :)

I currently work as a Family Liaison for my local school district and bring over 15 years of experience working with children of all ages. My passion for childcare began early and has only grown through the years—both in professional roles and hands-on caregiving.
