Meet Makailah

  • Comfortable with pets
  • Has a car

Hello! My name is Makailah and the past couple years I have worked in Bellevue and Issaquah as a full-time nanny. While I was in high school I worked part time. The majority of my nanny experience has been caring for little ones ages newborn to 5 years old. I have worked as a mother’s helper and a date night babysitter. I am also familiar with nanny sharing between two families. My experience also includes working with children who require specific needs such as: food allergies, food intolerances, learning challenges and medical needs. When I care for children I make sure to give my undivided attention creating a bond where laughter, creativity and trust thrive. I have a bubbly personality, lasting patience, and natural intuition regarding babies and children’s needs. Some activities I enjoy involving toddlers with are arts and crafts, puzzles, painting, dancing, photography and various music genres. Puddle Read more jumping around the neighborhood, outings to the park, trips to the zoo, Pacific Science Center, Kids Quest are regular outdoor activities I like to incorporate during the day. I believe my role as a nanny is to provide peace of mind to the family as a whole. That includes providing excellent care to their children but also tidying up the kitchen, playroom, and children’s room. I have tremendous references! One family that I have babysat for since the beginning of high school and another family that I have nannied for 8 months for a set of twins. I was actively involved in my high school. I began playing cello in middle school and continued throughout high school. I also took 4 years of Spanish, joined a college preparation club as well as the Environmental Action Club. In my free time I enjoy yoga, swimming, baking sweet treats, and traveling the beautiful Pacific Northwest. I also love attending local festivals, shopping the farmers market, and occasionally going to Mariners or Seahawks games! Please let me know if you have anymore questions! I look forward to helping your family!
