Hi, my name is Talina Hall (pronounced Tuh-lee-nuh) and I am located in Tacoma. I’m 23 years old and currently majoring in Early Childhood Education with a minor in Child Psychology. I am certified in CPR, First Aid, and Montessori teaching. I also hold a valid food handler’s card. I have experience caring for children ranging from newborns to 13 years of age. I can assist with: Sleep training Establishing and maintaining routines Homework help Activity planning Grooming (hair, clothing, and diapering) Cooking Light housekeeping A little more about me: During high school, I volunteered at my local Boys and Girls Club, where I created and directed a two-year program for 4th and 5th grade girls. I mentored them by providing a safe space for open discussion, organizing activities, and helping with homework. After that, I worked as a nanny for about three years before preparing to attend college. While in college, I worked part-time as a caregiver at a senior living facility. During school breaks, I continued nannying on and off. I also have occasional experience with dog sitting, which includes walking, feeding, and playtime. Thank you for taking the time to read a bit about me. I hope to have the opportunity to provide the best care for your family! 😊

My name is Andrea but I go by Andy- I’ve worked with children of all ages but consider infants and toddlers my “specialty!” I enjoy soccer, playing piano, going into nature and reading. I'm comfortable giving medications, following special diets such as vegan, ketogenic, gluten free, etc. I find stability among chaos and have a knack for having fun while maintaining roles and safety. My current schedule allows me to be flexible with my availability, so don't be afraid to ask! If you want a tenured nanny who knows how to balance being silly and being the adult, send me a message! To help me weed out bots please mention soccer in your message to me!

Andy is incredibly gentle and caring, which makes for an ideal nanny or babysitter. I always appreciate how she acknowledges my son’s feelings and gets on his level to play. She is also a pro at getting him to nap, which is not always an easy task! Our whole family, pets included, all feel comfortable in her presence. While she is no longer our full time caregiver, we look forward to continuing to use her services for date nights etc and would recommend her to anyone.

Sarahi was wonderful with our 3-year-old son! She was hired so last minute because we had a gap in our regular coverage and filled in seamlessly. Very professional and was even able to put our son down for his nap (which is sometimes difficult at this age). Thank you, Sarahi!

My name is Sarah, and I am a dependable childcare professional with four years of nanny experience working in long-term positions with families. I am passionate about creating a safe, supportive, and nurturing environment for children while helping families maintain a well-organized home. I am comfortable caring for children of various ages, including when they are sick or need additional support. I stay calm in stressful situations, multitask well, and adapt easily to changing schedules and family needs. Along with childcare, I am also comfortable assisting with household management tasks and working around animals. Before nannying, I worked as a lifeguard and swim instructor, which gave me strong knowledge of water safety, emergency awareness, and responsibility. I have been working since I was 15 years old at a recreation center, where I developed a strong work ethic and excellent communication skills. I am flexible with scheduling and willing to work early mornings, evenings, weekends, or late nights as needed. I also have multiple strong references available upon request. I truly enjoy building lasting relationships with families and providing dependable, compassionate care. I would love the opportunity to support your family and contribute positively to your home.

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!

Hello! I'm Tia — thank you for taking a moment to learn more about me. I currently work as a Family Liaison for the Federal Way School District and bring over 15 years of experience working with children of all ages. My passion for childcare began early and has only grown through the years—both in professional roles and hands-on caregiving. I’m now looking to nanny during my summer break and would love to support a wonderful family during this time. In the past, I’ve had the joy of being a summer nanny to three adorable little boys. I truly cherished every moment—helping them grow, play, and thrive. My approach is nurturing, patient, and focused on creating a safe, loving, and engaging environment where children can learn, laugh, and feel secure. I’m also a proud mom of four amazing young adult children who are all currently in college, as well as a fur mom to two pups—Minnie (a Pomeranian) and Hewie (a Yorkie). This summer, I’m offering care from my home in peaceful Fredrickson, WA, which features a clean, child-friendly space, a fenced yard perfect for playtime, and a lovely neighborhood park just a short walk away. I’m also happy to provide care from your home if that’s a better fit for your family’s needs. If you’re looking for a reliable, experienced, and compassionate caregiver who will treat your child like family, I’d love to connect and learn more about how I can support your family. With appreciation, Tia

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Highly Recommend Tia! I can’t say enough good things about Tia! She did an absolutely amazing job cleaning my home. From top to bottom, everything was spotless and sparkling. Her attention to detail was incredible—she cleaned areas that are often overlooked and left everything looking refreshed and organized. The best part was walking into a house that not only looked clean but smelled wonderfully fresh and clean as well. It truly felt like a brand-new home. Tia was professional, thorough, reliable, and clearly takes pride in her work. If you're looking for someone who goes above and beyond, Tia is the one to call. I highly recommend her services and will definitely be using her again! Thank you, Tia, for making my home feel so clean, comfortable, and welcoming! ?✨?

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.
