Hi there! I recently earned my degree in early childhood education from Skagit & Highline College, and I have been caring for children for 5+ years as a childcare provider. I work with all ages such as newborns, infants, toddlers, preschool, and school age. I love working with young kids as I approach each child as an individual who I get to help grow and teach. I want to be able to provide parents with someone trustworthy to care for their children.

We hired Denise for our 15 month old boy on a very short notice for a weekday when the daycare was closed. We couldn’t have gotten luckier! She is a wonderful, warm person and is also extremely professional. My little one loved her instantly and was very happy to spend time with her for the entire day! She is amazing with babies. I highly recommend her and would surely hire her again!

Shade S., Child Care in Covington, WA 98042 with 11 years of paid experience

Howdy! I am a Specialist in School Psychology with a passion for working with children and ensuring adequate child development. I have over 10 years of experience babysitting/nannying. I believe that kids should be able to express themselves creatively and physically (as in not stay in the house all day). English is my first language, but I can speak and understand basic Spanish as well. As for my caregiving philosophy, it mostly depends on the parents. My mission is to ensure that the child's needs are always met. I am quite active and love spending time outside and/or playing games. I pride myself on being creative and accommodating, and have yet to meet a kiddo that would say different :). Additionally, I have experience working with newborns, toddlers, and teens. I also have experience working with kids that have developmental delay and/or Autism. I am CPR, First Aid, and AED certified. I am also comfortable with animals (dogs, cats, birds, etc.)

Lisa H., Child Care in Covington, WA 98042 with 24 years of paid experience

I believe children should be nutured with love & respect. An educational interaction should be carried out daily like learning numbers & colors. Children are a precious gift. I worked for 11yrs as a para educator for the Renton School District,grades k-12 and loved it very much. I've cared for triplet boys from 6wks until they were 3yrs old and at that time they started preschool. I love to Read and interact our stories with pictures and music. I will always have a journal of your baby’s activities for the day including diaper changes and bottles. I will bathe baby daily if you so choose.

Lenexia babysat our 14mo old toddler for the first time and it went great! He is always skeptical of babysitters (especially new ones) but he ate his dinner, and fell asleep at a good time. Lenexia was very communicative, and we never worried about him at all. Would happily ask Lenexia to babysit again. Thank you!

Hi everybody! I am a certified math teacher and a boys' basketball coach at a high school in Renton.

In addition to date nights, I've also helped with weekends/overnights, after school, and full-time babysitting in the summer. Working with kids is something I enjoy doing and is the reason I became a teacher and a coach. I like to spend the time interacting and engaging with the kids. I focus on making sure they have a safe and fun time while in my care. Thank you for taking the time to read a little bit about me! Please feel free to reach out if you have any questions. I'm excited for the opportunity to work with you and your family!

I’ve spent years working with kids in all kinds of settings — babysitting babies and toddlers, helping out in kindergartens, and supporting groups of children in different programs. I truly love what I do. Watching kids learn, grow, and discover new things has always been one of my favorite parts of the job. Whether I’m calming a baby, helping with early learning skills, or creating fun activities, working with children is something that brings me so much joy.

We hired Lesley to help take care of our 3 month old infant overnight. She is very good at soothing a baby who only contact sleeps, and quickly adapted to nuances of care. She is very easy to get along with and clearly loves children. We are looking forward to the remaining month and a half of time we need her assistance overnight.

I love being a sitter because it gives me the opportunity to connect with others, whether it’s pets, children, or elderly individuals. There’s something incredibly rewarding about providing care and seeing those I look after feel comfortable, safe, and happy. I enjoy the flexibility of the job, too, as it allows me to balance my time while helping others with their needs. It’s fulfilling to know that I’m offering peace of mind to families or pet owners. have experience in [pet sitting/babysitting/elderly care], where I’ve learned to manage tasks like feeding, administering medications, and providing companionship. Over time, I’ve gained confidence in caring for different individuals, whether it’s keeping pets entertained and active or helping children with their daily routines. I’ve also had the opportunity to work with families on various occasions, which has improved my ability to adapt to different needs and preferences. I have strong communication skills, which help me interact effectively with both the individuals I’m caring for and their families. I’m also trained in first aid and CPR, which I believe is an essential skill for any sitter. I have experience managing schedules and routines, especially with children or pets, and I’m good at keeping everything organized. I’m patient, compassionate, and enjoy being proactive in addressing any challenges that may arise, whether that’s calming an anxious pet or ensuring a child feels safe and secure.
