Maya P., Nanny in Carnation, WA 98014 with 5 years of paid experience

Hello! My name is Maya and I currently live in Bellevue. I’m originally from Honolulu, Hawaii but I moved to Washington in 2020 for school, and I graduated from UW in 2024 with my B.S in speech and hearing sciences! I worked at an early childcare center with infants-pre-k children from 2021-2024 and have babysat since 2021. I am currently CPR/First-Aid certified. I currently work as a speech therapist in a pediatric therapy clinic where I provide services to children between the ages of 3-12! I have the amazing opportunity to work very closely and co-treat with occupational therapists and mental health therapists so I have been able to learn some strategies from therm. I previously worked providing speech therapy for a school district where I got to collaborate with resource, life skills, and SEL teachers so I am very familiar with various SpEd departments!

We had a wonderful experience with Maya. She was kind, patient, and immediately connected with our 6‑year‑old. She kept him engaged with games, dinner, and a smooth bedtime routine. We came home to a happy kiddo and a calm house. We would absolutely hire her again!

Mavis Y., Nanny in Carnation, WA 98014 with 10 years of paid experience

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!

Mavis is great with our now 11 month old. Our daughter is always excited to see Mavis, she smiles and reaches out for Mavis when she shows up. Mavis has also been great with our dog, who is not a typical "easy" dog. Communication is very important to me, and Mavis has also proven herself to be a great communicator via phone and in person. She also send photos when I am at work, an added bonus for a mama who is missing her baby girl.

We’ve had Madelyn watch our 5 year old daughter for a few date nights now, and she has been wonderful! From the moment she arrived, she was warm, professional, and immediately connected with our kiddo. She’s incredibly responsible and has a great intuition with children. Communication with her was clear and easy, and she kept us updated just enough to give us peace of mind without interrupting our night. Our daughter asks when she gets to see Madelyn again! We’re so grateful to have found someone so kind and dependable, and we’ll definitely be asking her back again soon.

Willow has been an exceptional caregiver for our 1-year-old twins since August 2024. She ensures they are dressed, fed breakfast, and ready for the day, always arriving on time and following instructions perfectly. Her attention to detail, including creating lovely hairstyles for our little girl, shows her dedication and care.

Cynthia S., Nanny in Carnation, WA 98014 with 15 years of paid experience

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. I am very close to my 3 sons so I enjoy doing various things with them. In addition, I have a 13 year old dog, who thinks he's a puppy! 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!

Cyndie took care of our 17 month old last week. He is usually very uncertain about new people, but warmed up to Cyndie right away. You could tell she has a lot of experience with children. She would read and play with him and made sure to get him outside each day. Cyndie and our child became good buddies throughout the week. She made him lunches and was also great around our dogs (while she wasn’t taking care of our dogs, they loved seeing her as well). You can tell she has a kind heart. We also appreciated her open communication style. It made it easy for us to discuss expectations.

Rebekah I., Nanny in Carnation, WA 98014 with 43 years of paid experience

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.

Rebekah is a kind, reliable and intelligent teacher. We have known her for over a year and she has become an integral part of our family. Her greatest strengths are her patience and dedication towards her students as well as the kindness and respect she has towards her students' special needs and individuality. She communicates well with the parents and keeps us updated at all times. She constantly seeks ways to keep her student engaged and happy. All of the above attributes also makes her an excellent choice if you are seeking a caregiver, teacher or babysitter. I would highly recommend Rebekah in this regard.
