Isabella is honestly the best! She brings such a warm, positive energy. My daughter absolutely loves her and gets so excited every single time she comes over. She doesn't just watch her, she’s right there playing and fully engaging with her. It gives me total peace of mind knowing my daughter is in such great hands. We couldn’t recommend her enough!

Makayla L., Nanny in Ferndale, WA 98248 with 3 years of paid experience

I have been working with children for close to three years. When I first started I was with infants and then I worked my way through different ages, learning the unique care of each group. Working with familes and children to reach a common goal has taught me so many things and brought so much joy into everyday life. Every child is unique and getting to support their learning style and see them thrive is one of the best parts of what I do. I have a certificate of proficiency in ECE and for infants and toddlers from WCC and I’m planning to work towards my AA in Early childhood education!

Hi, I’m Sujina! I have around 2 years of experience as both a nanny and babysitter, along with experience as a lead and assistant teacher in licensed daycare and preschool settings. I’m CPR/First Aid certified and have completed Washington State’s 30-hour STARS (Child Care Basics) training. I love working with children and getting to know each child’s personality. Whether I’m caring for a baby, playing with toddlers, or spending time with older kids, I enjoy being part of their day and building a relationship with them. I love spending time outside, reading books, doing crafts, and getting to know what each child enjoys. I’d love to learn more about your family and see if we’d be a good fit!

Melody B., Nanny in Ferndale, WA 98248 with 5 years of paid experience

My name is melody, I’m fully vaccinated, & first aid & CPR certified. I have over 9 years of professional experience as a household manager/nanny, & a daughter of my own who is now 5 years old. I’m very organized & skilled at running a household, and anticipating child/family needs. I have extensive experience with neurodivergent children, infants, and preschool age-children. After practicing gentle/respectful parenting over these last few years, and getting certified as a behavioral therapist, I feel even more qualified than before to work with children. I love incorporating montessori methods in my care to help foster independence and confidence in children. I have nannied for many different age groups, & have cared for as many as three kids in one household before. My approach to working with children is an evidence-based, gentle and respectful one, in hopes of helping raise happy & competent children. The four main elements to this are respect, empathy, understanding, & boundaries. This focuses on fostering the qualities you want in your child by being compassionate, & maintaining and enforcing consistent boundaries. When dealing with big feelings, I find it important to first connect & empathize with the child in order to not only effectively teach empathy, but also that their feelings are valid, even though sometimes their actions are not. I turn “misbehavior” into a teaching moment for the child. We work to move from a no, to a yes. I try to focus on what they CAN do, as opposed to what they can’t do. I am vocally trained & did musical theater and tennis throughout my life. I love painting, and I come from a family of Italian and Lebanese chefs and have been cooking my entire life. Im willing to help with children’s laundry, grocery shopping, errands, meal prep, dinners, potty or sleep training, etc. I have experience in caring for newborns, baby led weaning, teaching phonics & other pre school aged skills, as well as teaching emotional regulation skills. I enjoy coming up with creative activities to help kids learn through play & to foster creativity. I also think sensory play is very important for various developmental reasons. I am available to work m-f and determine my pay rate based on duties of the job description, extent of care I'm providing, & the amount of children I'm looking after. I look forward to hearing how I can help your family!

Rebecca D., Nanny in Ferndale, WA 98248 with 5 years of paid experience

I am a nurturing loving mother, auntie, godmother. I love children of all ages. I believe each age has its own special milestones. My first job as a 15 year old was at a daycare. I worked there for 3 years and enjoyed it so much. Later in years I moved to Washington and was a nanny for twin babies. This was such a fulfilling and fun job. I will bring much love, affection and fun to your little ones 💛
