Find experienced nannies in Carnation, WA

Hello! My name is Marisa, and I am looking for a wonderful family (preschool or elementary age) to support as a part-time nanny. I have a lifelong passion for working with children and a wealth of experience to draw from. I studied early childhood education in college and worked as a Pre-K teacher before stepping away to raise my four children. They are all grown, and my husband and I have entered a new phase of empty nesting! Throughout my years as a stay-at-home mom, my life has revolved around children—volunteering in my children’s classrooms, teaching young children at church, and babysitting for friends. I love watching children grow in confidence, independence, and creativity. My approach is rooted in play-based learning, which, I believe, inspires curiosity and critical thinking. I enjoy guiding children through open-ended projects that encourage discovery and problem-solving in a fun and engaging way. I believe in firm, but gentle parenting: setting boundaries, calmly redirecting unwanted behaviors, positive reinforcement, natural consequences, encouraging empathy, and above all, showing lots of love. I strive to help each child I interact with feel safe, valued, and important. My most recent nanny experience has been a dream--supporting an amazing multilingual family. I have loved helping their elementary-age child build confidence with English through everyday conversation and playful learning. I am dedicated to nurturing and advocating for children, and I consider it a privilege to support their development. Thank you for considering me as part of your family’s caregiving team—I look forward to meeting you!

Hi! I'm Cyndie. I'm a mother of 3 boys; they are older now so I have flexibility in work and in play! I have twins that were 9 1/2 weeks premature and a 3 year old at the time soI I definitely know how to juggle children and family responsibilities I enjoy watching kids' sports. My boys played soccer since they were 3 years old, t-ball, baseball, basketball, track & field and football. I was a really active parent. I was Vice President of the PTA, VP of Membership, Chairperson of Family Fun nights and an Art Docent for their classrooms for two years. I also participated in booster clubs to raise money for the sports. I enjoy walking, bike riding, easy/moderate hiking (nothing too crazy!). I belong to the YMCA where I take Zumba, cycling, a weight class, yoga, pilates and cardio/weights. I just recently bought a guitar and I plan on taking lessons.

In the past, I worked 7 years at the Kent School District, both in the office and as an Instructional Assistant. I worked some with autistic children and children with learning disabilities. To work at the school district, I had an extensive background check and also I had to be fingerprinted. To my background is squeaky clean! If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to ask! Enjoy your day!

Hello everyone, I’m a 30-year-old stay-at-home mom who has loved every minute of raising my three-year-old daughter, and I’m now excited to build up my experience as a babysitter. I’m warm, energetic, attentive, and genuinely love being around children. I’m the kind of caregiver who will happily chase kids around the playground for hours, get down on the floor to play, and turn everyday activities into opportunities to learn. I especially enjoy helping little ones develop early skills like speech, letters, numbers, colors, and independence while keeping learning playful and age-appropriate. I also know the Eastside very well and can take children to great parks, play cafés, libraries, and other fun, enriching activities. My goal is to make your children feel safe, happy, engaged, and cared for while giving parents complete peace of mind. I will respect your family’s routines, boundaries, parenting choices, and house rules, and I will care for your children with the same attentiveness and protectiveness I would want for my own. I am ideally looking for a nanny family that is comfortable with my three-year-old daughter accompanying me to work. She is gentle, affectionate, and comfortable around both children and animals, and I believe having another little companion can make playtime especially fun and social. I would love to find a family where we can build a trusting, long-term relationship and make each day active, educational, and genuinely enjoyable for the children
