Hello, my name is Nguyen Nickerson. I am a mature, responsible, devoted and reliable nanny with 10 years experience as a professional nanny in Seattle. I have experience with kids from 2 months to 12 year old. I have 6 years experience with infants and toddlers. I simply love children, love caring for them and find them fascinating, and I am seeking further nanny work to continue doing what I love and broadening my experience. A little about myself: I graduated with a Bachelor of English from University of Social Science and Humanities of Ho Chi Minh city, Vietnam in 2013. I am CPR/First Aid trained. I am bilingual in English and Vietnamese and would love to teach Vietnamese to the children that I take care of. I am a Mental Health First Aider. I participated in the Caregiver and Child Intervention 6 weeks program with Seattle Children’s Play Therapy. I have finished The Parent Leadership Training Institute at Everett Community College fall 2021. I have a clean background check. I have a Subaru car which is insuranced with a clean driving record. I am more than happy to drive kids to educational activities such as story times, baby and toddler gym, zoo, aquarium… I am up to date with vaccinations including Covid, flu shot, Tdap. I pay attention to details. I design daily activities based on parents' wants and child’s needs, making sure children hit their development milestones, and encouraging learning social and emotional skills via play. I want to help children advance their language development through reading, singing and talking to children. I coordinated with parents to develop systems that encourage positive behaviors. I manage a calendar of events and appointments including lessons, playdates… I want to make sure I am able to connect on a deep level, build a safe, loving relationship and offer a stable environment to nurture your child. I want to have open communications with the parents and be a part of your family.

Nguyen was great with my 3-month-old daughter. She was very engaging which was great for my daughter as she continued to have longer awake windows. She took her for walks, took her to the tot room at the nearby community center and she read to her. She was a huge help to me by introducing me to the Huckleberry app which we used to track my daughter’s daily activities and to see trends. She also helped with sleep training which has been going really well. She was on time, communicated well, and took pictures and video clips throughout the day. She definitely made my life easier and I would be happy to use her again!

I have many years experience caring for children of all ages professionally. I have a clean background and reliable transportation. I have worked as a caregiver for the past 15 years helping elderly and disabled clients in their homes. I'm also a mom of a 27 year old son and 18 year old daughter and grandmother of 1 year old granddaughter 🙂 I love to cook making healthy meals and snacks, keeping homes clean and tidy, do arts/crafts, play games/ do puzzles and read books/watch movies occasionally and going to play outside in the fresh air when weather is decent. I enjoy pets and helping with them as well if needed. I'm flexible about days and times and for date nights too. I could even do overnights as well with a days advance notice if you need a weekend getaway. Please reach out if you are interested in meeting with me. Thanks Teresa😊

Teresa is wonderful! Our son loves her and she's great with him. She's very good at doing lots of different activities with him, so he's not just watching TV all day. I highly recommend her.

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

Suzie has been absolutely amazing! In only a couple weeks, she has taught my 16 month old a ton of new sign language and words that he is using regularly! She’s is genuinely excited and eager to play and teach him, and it’s like having our own personal Ms. Rachel. She keeps our LO so entertained and happy that he doesn’t even care if mom or dad leave the room. He became so comfortable with her so quickly, and is excited to see her every time. Even when he was unexpectedly sleeping in later, Suzie offered to help with some home organization until he woke up! She is so very helpful and it is so reassuring to know that my little one is in such great hands. Knowing he is so happy with her helps dissipate that ever lingering mom guilt when I’m away from him. I can’t say enough great things about Suzie.

Hello Everyone, My name is Karen. I just completed my 11th year of teaching Special Education teacher for the NYC Board of Education. The last 4 of the 12 years I taught Art specifically 🎨. I worked primarily with students diagnosed with Autism but have experience babysitting/tutoring/nanny-ing children of all ages and abilities ranging from 1 to 16 years of age. I've taken a little pause on teaching this year to explore some exciting creative endeavors, as well as go on a fun adventure to the West Coast! However, I would still love the opportunity to work with children in some capacity 😊 I would describe myself as a very loving person, honest, kind, I am a huge animal, passionate about loving our planet, and above all a big kid who likes to be goofy and fun. Please reach out with any questions you may have! Hope to speak with you soon. Warmly, Karen

Karen watched my 1-year-old a few times. My daughter absolutely loved her. She took great care of her and would send me updates throughout the day while I was at work. Karen is very sweet and caring. She communicates very well and is always on time. Unfortunately, my schedule changed, and we no longer have her, but I would absolutely recommend her Karen was wonderful!

Hi! My name is Milagros, and I’m a caring, reliable, and energetic childcare provider with over 5 years of experience working with children of different ages. I’m originally from Argentina and currently based in Seattle. I have a background in Physical Education and Personal Training, which strongly shapes the way I care for kids — I love encouraging movement, outdoor play, and healthy routines in a fun and safe way. I’ve worked as a full-time nanny, babysitter, and caregiver, supporting families with everything from daily routines and school pickups to creative play, meals, and emotional support. I’m very attentive, organized, and calm under pressure, and I truly value building trust with both parents and children. I understand how important it is to feel confident leaving your child with someone, and I take that responsibility seriously. I’m CPR and First Aid certified, have a clean driving record, and I always aim to create a positive, structured, and loving environment where kids feel safe, seen, and supported. I’m happy to adapt to each family’s needs and parenting style, and I communicate clearly and openly. I genuinely enjoy working with children and being a supportive presence in their growth and daily life. I’d love to connect and see if I could be a good fit for your family!

Here’s a polished nanny review you can use: --- We loved having Mili as our nanny! She cared for our two kids—Ava (4) and Dez (1)—as part of a nanny share with our neighbors across the street, and she was truly wonderful. Mili was consistently warm, fun, and patient with the kids. She had a great routine with Dez and was able to get him down for naps smoothly, which was such a relief. She kept the kids engaged and active, taking them out regularly to museums, parks, and playgrounds. We always felt connected because she sent lots of photos and updates throughout the day. She was responsive, reliable, and made sure the kids were well fed and happy. We highly recommend Mili—our kids absolutely adored her!

Hi - I’m Jalyssa and I can’t wait to meet you and your family :) A little bit about me – raised in the Kent area. I love to cook, paint, sing/dance, even though I’m not the best at it lol My friends and family would describe me as outgoing, adventurous and youthful, which is a great trait for working with the little ones !! Ive been a nanny for about a 4yrs and baby sat for as long as I can remember. Children have always been my passion, I’m a nurturer by default and I wouldn’t change that for anything in the world :) I am certified as a Labor Doula with CPR/First Aid certification to compliment. Looking forward to meeting new families!! Thank you :)

Hi! My name is Montana. I am mostly looking for one-time childcare positions. I am available immediately with open availability! I have 5+ years of experience that comes from working as a nanny, working at youth summer camps, and babysitting. I have reliable transportation and am located in the Seattle area. I am also comfortable with pets in the home. ☺️ I can not do one-time/occasional sits for sick children - only long term families that I nanny for. If a child is sick upon my arrival for a babysitting visit, I will not be able to stay for the evening. I also prefer to meet families virtually or in person before committing to a job! Thank you for understanding.

Hi, I'm Sophia! Working with kids has always been a passion of mine. My journey began in middle school, volunteering at my elementary school and leading camps and lessons in Girl Scouts, which quickly led to extensive babysitting and nannying experience. I'm well-prepared for any situation, having completed multiple first aid and babysitting courses, and I've successfully applied this knowledge in real emergencies. My eight years in Girl Scouts, leadership roles in extracurriculars, and my experience caring for both children and pets have equipped me with strong responsibility and adaptability. I have worked with a wide range of kids including kids with neurodivergencies, argumentative siblings, sensory processing disorder, ARFID, and extremely anxious kids. I'm confident I could be a wonderful fit for your family! (The only day I consistently can't work is Saturdays)

We have had the pleasure of having Sophia sit for our two children many times. She is professional, caring, and reliable and the kids just adore her and ask when she will be back every time she leaves. We highly recommend Sophia for your next job!
