Hi, I'm Myka! I am university student in Seattle and hoping to achieve my bachelor's degree in Developmental Psychology within the next two years. As of right now I am working at early childhood, education school working with children ages 4 months to 6 years. However, will be returning back to campus in early September. Because I have worked in the school system, I have an up-to-date, criminal background check, as well as multiple child care trainings, through the Department of Children and Youth and Families. I have a strong background in childcare and have worked with children of all ages for over 4 years. I'm skilled in creating fun and engaging activities that promote learning and creativity. I'm always ready to lend a helping hand with homework or chores. I'd describe my personality as outgoing, compassionate, and lively. In my spare time, I like to explore the water with my golden doodle or try new recipes in the kitchen. I hope to hear from you soon :)

Hi! My name is Emily Vanzonneveld and I just graduated from Arizona State University. I just moved back to Washington where I plan on permanently staying and completing my Masters Degree online. I spend most of my free time doing homework, trying new recipes, and working out. I use to be apart of the Women’s Water Polo team at ASU and I enjoy staying busy and having a consistent schedule. I have been babysitting for about 5 years now and it has been one of the best jobs I have ever had! I enjoy playing different games and doing fun crafts with the kids. Also, I love cooking different meals and driving them wherever they may need to go. Overall, babysitting allows me to take a little break from school and have fun while interacting with the kids! As a sitter, I make sure that the kids follow any schedule and complete anything the parent may ask! At the end of the night, I will ensure that all the dishes will be cleaned/loaded into the dishwasher and all activities are put away. Also, I have a reliable car and a clean driving record. I am CPR & First Aid certified if any emergency does occur.

Hello Everyone! My name is Emma and I am offering occasional babysitting services! I’m your typically 24 year old trying to make some extra income.I have my Associates of the Arts degree, Associates of the Arts in Teachers Education as well as a certificate in business management. I am only available for occasional/date night babysitting opportunities in University Place/Tacoma/Lakewood area! *I am fully vaccinated against covid* I am currently employed at University Place School District as a Para-Educator in the Transitional Kindergarten program! I am the oldest of 4 kids with all of many different ages (22,13 and 12). Way back to 2011 my dad lost his job when the economy tanked he went back to school while my mom was the only working and we had 2 big surprises pop up! She had my brother and my sister durning this time which made me grow into a bigger role of big sister/babysitter/2nd mom. Therefore I have experience with all ages and even children with disabilities. For 3 years I worked at the Morgan YMCA teaching swim lessons to all ages (6months-adults), did lifeguarding and also participated in a swim program called Swimming for Exceptional Children. I am no longer certified still in lifeguarding. However, I am certified in CPR/AED, First Aid, and Oxygen. Through my previous job at the Morgan YMCA I have taking training courses such as child abuse prevention, sexual harassment, blood born pathogens, hazard communication, ALICE, listen first and much more. I am non-smoking, have references, have access to a car/have a license, as well as willing to take a background check or do an interview prior to occasional babysitting gig. Feel free to message me with any comments, questions or concerns! 😊
