Hello and Thank you for taking the time to read my profile. With over 10 years of dedicated childcare experience, I am a passionate and reliable nanny seeking a long-term position with a loving family. My journey in childcare began when I started watching my grandson on weekends while my daughter-in-law worked, and I quickly discovered this was my true calling. What started as helping family has blossomed into a fulfilling career that brings me immense joy every single day. ## Professional Qualifications & Experience I am certified through the Child Care Aware program with the military, demonstrating my commitment to professional standards and quality care. My extensive experience spans working with children of all ages, including infants as young as 3 months old. I understand the unique needs of each developmental stage and adapt my caregiving approach accordingly, whether it's providing gentle care for newborns or engaging older children in educational activities. Safety and trust are paramount in my work. I have completed comprehensive state and federal background checks, as well as a current driving abstract, all of which I'm happy to share with prospective families. These clearances reflect my commitment to maintaining the highest standards of safety and reliability. ## What Sets Me Apart I believe in making life easier for the families I work with, not just caring for their children. My services extend beyond basic childcare to include light housekeeping, laundry, meal preparation, and maintaining organized, clean spaces. I understand that parents have enough on their plates, so I take pride in handling these additional responsibilities to help create a smoother household routine. My approach to childcare is nurturing yet structured. I focus on creating engaging, educational experiences while maintaining consistent routines that help children feel secure and thrive. Whether it's reading stories, creative play, outdoor activities, or helping with homework, I tailor activities to each child's interests and developmental needs. ## References & Family-Friendly Approach I have excellent references from previous families who can speak to my reliability, trustworthiness, and genuine care for their children. Many of my relationships with families have lasted years, which speaks to my commitment to building lasting, meaningful connections. I'm completely comfortable with pets and understand they're often

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.

I used to work for a public school district for many years. I have previous experience working in the infant/toddler room and school age children at La Petite Academy Daycare. I am CPR and First Aid certified, which I believe is a plus point, since handling children requires a sitter to be prepared for unforeseen circumstances. I am able to drive children to school and accompany them at medical appointments. I am well-versed in performing housework related to childcare, including washing clothes, cleaning up after meals, and tidying up play areas. I don't mind planning and preparing nutritious meals for children according to their tastes and nutritional needs. I enjoy playing with children and helping them develop skills by creating a stimulating environment. My goal is to provide a nurturing and safe environment for children. I'm fluent in English and Spanish. I don't mind pets at all!

With a Strong background in childcare, a nurturing personality, and a genuine love for working with children, I am confident in my ability to provide a safe, engaging, and loving environment for your family. Over the past 16, I have cared for children of various ages, from infants to school-aged, both in private homes, Preschool, Elementary school and group settings. I am certified in CPR and First Aid, and I always prioritize the physical and emotional well-being of the children under my care. Whether it’s planning enriching activities, helping with homework, preparing healthy meals, or simply offering comfort and attention, I bring patience, responsibility, and warmth to every task. What sets me apart is my ability to build strong, trusting relationships with both children and parents. I believe in open communication and understand the importance of supporting a family’s unique values and routines. I am reliable, flexible with scheduling, and always ready to lend a helping hand. I would welcome the opportunity to meet with you and learn more about your family’s needs. Thank you for considering my application.
