Find experienced child care providers in Longview, WA

I am a practicing pediatric occupational therapist and am offering highly skilled and experienced special needs/medically fragile babysitting and respite care. I've been working with children and adults with special needs for 20 years and have been an occupational therapist for 6 years. My experiences include working with children with autism who have high support needs, children with developmental delay, or children with medical complexity. I am comfortable with a g-tube and other medical equipment, but do not have vent experience (but would be happy to be trained!) While I am not offering occupational therapy intervention while babysitting or providing respite, my background gives me extensive experience in caring for children with any kind of special needs. I also love babysitting for children with no special needs! I have been working with kid for many, years, and always bring plenty of screen-free ideas to any childcare situation. My style of childcare includes lots of interactions, games, and fun memories for your child(ren) while you're away. It's been a few years since I babysat, but I am looking for a side hustle to make some extra cash (gotta pay those student loans!) and also provide babysitting/respite to families who might struggle to find adequate care for their child with special needs. I'm happy to watch their siblings, too! I also worked in summer camps for 10 years and love hanging out with kids of all ages. I am available for overnight care, too.

Hi! My name is Sami, and I’m an 18-year-old freshman at Boise State University studying Psychology and Human Development. I’ve always loved working with children and have spent the past year working at a daycare, caring for kids ranging from 4 months to 13 years old. Before that, I grew up babysitting children in my neighborhood, so caring for kids has always been a big part of my life. I’m patient, responsible, energetic, and enjoy creating a fun, safe, and supportive environment where children can learn and grow. My studies have also given me a deeper understanding of child development, which I love applying when working with kids. I’m also a huge animal lover! I have three dogs back in my hometown, so I’m very comfortable around pets and happy to help care for them too. I’d love the opportunity to get to know your family and provide dependable, caring childcare you can trust!
