Find experienced nannies in Carnation, WA

Hello!:) My name is Sofiya but I go by Sofi. I was born in Ukraine and moved to the states when I was still a little girl. I have a really big family so I’ve been helping with the kids since I was 9. I’ve been around newborns consistently throughout my life making me comfortable and confident with newborns, infants, toddlers and older kiddos. I’m very patient and love to have fun with the kiddos like hand painting, taking them to the park or even baking if that’s something the children would like to do. I’m experienced in sleep training and introducing solids to infants and am very patient when it comes to fussy newborns. I’m more than happy to assist in helping set up routines for babies and toddlers and trying different routines different days until we find the perfect one for the kiddos.:) I’ve also worked with children who are on the spectrum so I’m very confident when it comes to keeping your kids safe and happy. I am planning on going to college for psychology next year so that I can pursue a career in working with children ( Behavioral Therapist ). I am very passionate when I am working and will go with the flow of your children. I’m a good cook so I am also more than happy to cook for your children. I’m a big animal lover as well so no issues at all with pets being in the home.:) Thank you for taking time out of your day to read this and I hope to talk soon!:)

Hi, my name is Mavis, I graduated from college a couple of years ago and worked as a graphic designer and artist for a while. I recently went back to school for some professional training. I started babysitting 9 years ago, I’ve been giving care to infants, toddlers and older kids. At the same time, I work with kids in age 3-14 as an art teacher. I get along with kids pretty well, and I enjoy my time with them. I am a patient and caring person. I like animals, especially dogs. In my past caregiving experience, I usually make art with kids, play the piano, go on walks to parks, pickup and provide simple meals, singing, dancing, reading books, etc. I am looking forward to meet your family and offer my help!

Hi! A little about me—I’m a kind, patient, and loving nanny who truly enjoys being around children. I have a calm, easygoing personality and strive to create a safe, happy, and nurturing environment where kids feel comfortable, supported, and free to be themselves. I genuinely love spending time with children—playing, learning, and helping them explore the world around them. I take the time to get to know each child for who they are, building a strong, trusting connection and encouraging them in a positive and fun way. I believe children thrive when they feel listened to, cared for, and valued. I focus on making each day meaningful by balancing play, learning, and routine in a way that supports healthy growth—emotionally, mentally, and physically. Patience, consistency, and kindness are very important to me in my approach to childcare. I also really value working closely with parents. I understand how busy life can get, and I’m here to support your family by helping with day-to-day care while making sure your child feels loved and secure. My goal is to be someone you can trust and rely on, and to be a positive, caring presence in your child’s life.

We moved from Austin, Texas, to Bellevue, WA, on June 14, 2023. We love it here. About my background: I home-schooled my children leading to their acceptance into Rhode Island School of Design (full scholarship,) Columbia University and Princeton University. Subsequently, I obtained my bachelor's, master's and PhD degrees in political science, the latter degree at the age of 55. Starting in 2017, I made 17 trips around the country to serve as a sitter educator for my granddaughter. After that I was a nanny educator in Austin, Texas, for her brother. Occasionally I managed care and education for both brother and sister, together. We moved to Bellevue Washington in June of 2023 to continue part-time care for the two grandchildren. Since then, I am working also for other families as a nanny educator and enjoy all age groups. My work includes educating children of all abilities as well as taking care of basics, such as hygiene, meal preparation and story-telling. Through all of my childcare services, I encourage children to develop self-motivation. Please contact me to check my availability.
