I am currently working in a daycare with children between 1-4 years old. I have also had the opportunity to develop myself in different aspects and areas. I have had the opportunity to work as a teacher's assistant in summer workshops at Weberbauer School. In this organization, I was responsible for supporting perceptual and motor learning in pre-kindergarten children. I was involved in the preparation of exhibitions, dances and plays for the children, as well as in the elaboration of didactic and formative material. Also, I volunteered for some months in the organization TECHO PERU, a nonprofit organization responsible for bringing aid to the neediest people, within my work I was part of the team of volunteers in the schools of remote communities where we support children in their homework, teach them to write, to read and provide children's shows as recreation with games and dances. These experiences gave me enormous gratitude and today, being a professional with vast experience and comprehensive training. I am also certified in first aid and CPR, in case of any emergency, a course which helped me learn more about the care of children and adults.

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 Rafaella — a caring, reliable, and experienced sitter with over 6 years of childcare experience. I truly love working with children and feel honored to be a part of their development and everyday moments. My journey started in Brazil, where I worked at a daycare and volunteered with 4–5-year-olds at my church. I later spent 2 years as an au pair in the U.S., caring for children ranging from 6 months to 8 years old. Those years helped me build strong skills in nurturing routines, supporting milestones, and creating a safe, fun environment for kids to grow. Currently, I’m working with a family caring for their sweet baby — I started when he was just 5 months old, and now he’s a happy, active 1-year-old! I’m experienced with infants, toddlers, and school-age kids, and I always bring patience, creativity, and responsibility to every family I work with. Whether it’s reading stories, planning activities, or helping with naps and meals, I’m here to support your child’s needs with love and care. Looking forward to connecting with your family!

Hi there! I’m Isabel (I also go by Isa), I’m a recent college grad from Cornish where I studied theatre. I have been babysitting and working as a camp counselor over the summers for several years. I am first aid and CPR certified and experienced with a wide age range of kids. I am also a animal lover so I am happy to help with pets if needed! I am adaptable and easy going so I can work with your individual child’s needs. I like doing arts and crafts with kids and playing outside.

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
