Find experienced nannies in Burien, WA

Hello! The name is Shannon! I am a current social work grad student at UW, therapist intern and former Early Learning Specialist and Family Educator with Children’s Home Society. I am recently looking for a morning drop off position, an afternoon part time position and/or an all day position for Fridays. I recent had to step down from my full time work at Children’s Home Society to focus on my internship as a therapist during the day. I have over five years of professional childcare experience working as a lead teacher for infants and toddlers for four years and working as a nanny for a year. I have babysat for many families for over a decade and have been with Sittercity since 2016. I have experience transporting children both in car and in small buses. I am CPR/ First Aid trained (recently renewed), I have a large amount of knowledge about child development, I’m fully vaccinated including recently getting the flu shot and soon to be getting a Covid booster per UW requirements. I can provide a background check and reference. I can’t wait to connect with you and your family! :)

I have been babysitting ever since I was 12 years old. I wanted to give back for all the years that I had been taken care of. I took a specific course to become a babysitter and started to babysit my neighbors. I had heard about a course specifically for babysitting, so I took it. After that I was good to go to babysit the whole neighborhood. It worked out perfectly while I attended UC Davis. I graduated with two degrees in Dramatic Art and Design, and two minors in Chicano Studies and Education. I love to teach it and create new things. I am also a Spanish native speaker. I was born in a town near Mexico City. I am very interested in teaching kids what I have learned and also try to have fun with them. Every time I babysit I like to teach the kids something new. Currently, I am a pre-K teacher. I am loving, fun, and entertaining to be around. Teaching kiddos is my passion. It’s the beginning of a new beginning in education. Please ask what my availability is for the summer! Gracias

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.

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.

Hello families! My name is Donaisha, but I go by Dee. I am originally born and raised in California, and have been a resident here in Washington for about 5 years now. I am a mother to a beautiful, sweet, smart, funny, outgoing and friendly 6 year old daughter (Kenya). I call her my assistant as she sometimes has to accompany me to jobs I pick up here. She is the reason I began my nanny journey back in 2017. During the past 6 years I have done pretty much every setting when it comes to childcare! Such as, day cares, baby sitting, date nights, overnight care, Montessori teacher, private home educator, learning pods, camp counselor, and tutoring. It’s truly a passion of mine to not only be apart of experiencing these kiddos growth, but also being able to help take the load off of parents who may be juggling a lot. I am Montessori certified, CPR and first aid certified, and up to date with all vaccines. My schedule is currently open and flexible for this upcoming summer and I would love to meet and connect with more families!

Hi - I’m Jalyssa and I can’t wait to meet you and your family :) A little bit about me – raised in the Kent area. I love to cook, paint, sing/dance, even though I’m not the best at it lol My friends and family would describe me as outgoing, adventurous and youthful, which is a great trait for working with the little ones !! Ive been a nanny for about a 4yrs and baby sat for as long as I can remember. Children have always been my passion, I’m a nurturer by default and I wouldn’t change that for anything in the world :) I am certified as a Labor Doula with CPR/First Aid certification to compliment. Looking forward to meeting new families!! Thank you :)

I’m Christarra McIntyre, a dedicated childcare professional with over a decade of experience working with children from infancy to school age. My journey began as a nanny for three children, and I later transitioned to a teaching role at Kindercare Learning Center, where I earned certifications in early childhood development, CPR, First Aid, and Blood Borne Pathogens. Which I have recently renewed. In Tacoma, I spent six years coaching competitive cheerleading, which helped me foster teamwork and resilience in young athletes. While in Los Angeles, I balanced caring for three boys with supporting their musician father on tour, demonstrating my adaptability in dynamic environments. Moving to Australia enriched my experience as a live-in nanny, where I provided not just childcare, but also educational support and language instruction. Upon returning to the U.S., I cared for two boys, one of whom had specialized needs related to an eating disorder. This experience highlighted my ability to manage complex medical situations with compassion. My time at Kiddie Academy allowed me to further nurture preschool-aged children. The last four summers I have been with one family and the last three years I have worked weekly with another family. Most recently, I’ve provided backup care and date night services for over 6 families, ensuring a safe and enjoyable environment for every child. I’ve done many school pick-ups and have driven many children. I have also provided a lot of pet care. I value attendance, engagement, structure, and bonding in my work, always prioritizing the voices and opinions of children with patience and respect. My commitment to creating a nurturing atmosphere and supporting holistic development makes me passionate about fostering positive experiences for the children in my care. I am currently seeking a part-time position with a loving family after 3:45 pm. I am currently in trade school full-time to become a carpenter. Thank you for your time and I look forward to speaking with you! Cheers, Christarra McIntyre

EXPERIENCE: Babysitting experience growing up in a large family. I was a nanny for many years, have been both lead and an assistant teacher as well in an early childhood setting. Both general education and special education. I'm familiar with the development of children from infants up to age five but I have experience with elementary aged children. QUALIFICATIONS: CPR and first aid certified. Trained in Safe Sleep for Infants. I have 30 hours of Child Care Basic (STARS) training as well.

ABOUT ME/CHILDCARE PHILOSOPHY: I have an unrelenting passion for service, helping others and child care. Everything I try to do is to spread joy, love, peace and putting kindness back into this world. I love doing so by modeling it to future generations. I believe in fostering the development of young children through the investment of time and in cultivating their natural love of learning and exploring the world around them in a way that doesn't compromise their safety. The enrichment of lives IS dependent on us nurturing individual developmental needs (social, emotional and academic) in a way that tailors what we teach them with how they learn best. Parent partnerships are very important. Open communication is the key and I will keep parents informed about how the day went. I'm firm believer in celebrating every child's successes and aspirations; who they are, where they are, and where they can go. I believe in gentle and respectful child care and treating children with kindness and patience even through tough moments. I look forward to the opportunity to be able to share these successes with any family I work with. HOURS OF AVAILABILITY: 5:00pm-10:00pm
