My main focus is the kids but should time and kids allow I do extra cleaning when I can.

Christina Mullee 208 E 10th Avenue  Ellensburg Wa 98926 503.901.1317 Hello, my name is Christina I am extremely creative and find it very inspiring to share my knowledge with youth. With a rich background as a dance and drama instructor for school-age children and the invaluable experience of raising four children of my own, I bring a unique blend of creativity, patience, and hands-on parenting wisdom to the role. My years as a performing arts educator taught me how to engage children in imaginative play, foster their confidence, and support their emotional development through movement and storytelling. I’ve worked with diverse age groups and learning styles, always tailoring my approach to meet each child’s individual needs. These skills seamlessly translate into nurturing environments where children feel safe, inspired, and understood. As a mother of four, I’ve navigated every stage of childhood—from sleepless newborn nights to teenage milestones. I understand the rhythms of family life, the importance of consistency, and the value of compassionate discipline. I’m adept at multitasking, managing schedules, preparing nutritious meals, and creating enriching activities that balance fun with learning. I am deeply committed to supporting families and helping children thrive. I would welcome the opportunity to bring my experience, warmth, and creativity into your home. I am CPR/AED certified. Thank you for considering my application. Warmest regards, Christina

Hi families!! My name is Charley, I am a student at CWU and the oldest of five siblings. Childcare has been a natural part of my life for as long as I can remember and have been the go-to family babysitter since I learned how to use a phone. Over the years I have taken numerous paid jobs for neighbors, friends, and distant relatives and have decided to continue my babysitting journey while I’m at school. I know I may seem young, but I promise that does not define my experience. I have cared for a wide variety of kids including (but not limited to) disabled children, infant twins and large families. I have grown the patience and reliability that is necessary in positions like this, though I am never too proud to learn more. I truly understand how chaotic and unpredictable family life can be. Whether you’re working, have an emergency, are in desperate need of a date night, or don’t quite get the math homework (completely understandable by the way) I am just here to lend a helping hand. I genuinely adore working with children and honestly, since being away from home, I kind of miss having little rascals running around! So it’s a win-win for us all. I would be so honored to work with your families and get ti know your kiddos to help make your lives a little easier :)

-I love being around and spending time with kids! -I’ve worked at my hometown’s local church daycare for 3yrs in highschool! -I’m a great cook, very kind, extremely patient. -Always been the good example and an older sister, so i know my way around 😊

I grew up in a family with eight kids along with pets so I’m very familiar with the experiences that come along with a busy house! I do housekeeping and snack times, along with any specific needs you’d like for your kiddos. I love to do crafts, outside time, and to have dance parties to help get the energy out. Please feel free to reach out anytime if you’re looking for some help!

I started in childcare volunteering in the nursery at my church when I was 13 and have continued to do it for many years. I have had summer nannying jobs with kids ages 2, 4, 6, & 12, as well as babysitting with all ages since I was 15. I love spending time with kids and helping with homework, meal prep, playing, or being outdoors.
