Find experienced nannies in Quilcene, WA

Experienced nanny with a high-focus on building healthy attachment styles by creating a predictable environment, guiding emotional and mental development. While I do incorporate a lot of learning into our play from neuroscience books I've read, I prefer to keep it fluid and still allow the child to be a child. I follow a Montessori approach, so I don't feel comfortable forcing learning or being rigid with the methods. Particularly with toddlers, I allow them to take the lead through their interests to develop their independence and need for autotomy. This empowers them to manage nonnegotiable rules and boundaries with less meltdowns; in other words, we're building the foundational skills for compromising. WFH Families Unfortunately, I am not a good fit for this environment I have worked with lovely families and even then, found my introverted temperament type gets exhausted integrating into the nuances of a family dynamic.

Hi, my name is Bahia, I am 34 years old and I have my master's degree in marriage, family, and child counseling. For the past 7 years I have been a nanny, splitting my time between multiple families, almost all of whom have had at least two children ranging from 3 months old to 7 years old. Before nannying I worked at an autism center for 5 years, first as a behavior therapist, and eventually as a clinical supervisor. At this job I worked one on one with children ranging from 18 months of age to 15 years old. At this job I was trained in methods of language development and behavior management. While working at the autism center and completing my master’s degree I also interned as a marriage and family therapist trainee for two years, and approximately half of my caseload consisted of children. I occasionally babysat while in high school and as an undergrad. I have also been a very involved aunt to a now 14-year-old girl and 12-year old twins. Saving my best experience for last, I am the proud mama to a sweet boy who was born in March 2021. I am currently looking for a part time job that I can bring my son to, or date night/weekend jobs when I can leave my son with his dad if needed. I have been bringing my son to work with ume since he was 6 months old, so he is very used to it. I will not favor my child while on the job, I see this as a great way to teach him to share toys and attention with other children. I hope that my extensive knowledge and experience with children will make me the right fit for your family.

Why I Love Being a Sitter I love being a sitter because I genuinely enjoy supporting children’s growth, curiosity, and daily routines. Being part of a child’s day — whether that’s helping them learn something new, explore outdoors, or feel safe and cared for — is incredibly rewarding to me. I value creating a calm, structured, and nurturing environment where kids can feel secure and parents can feel confident leaving their little ones in my care. My Experience I have professional childcare experience working with infants, toddlers, and young children in private family settings. I’ve supported families with daily routines, meals, naps, outings, developmental play, and safe transportation. In addition to childcare, I have a background in healthcare and patient care, which has strengthened my ability to stay calm under pressure, follow safety protocols, and communicate clearly with families. I also have customer service and coordination experience, which helps me stay organized and dependable. Skills & Training • CNA training with clinical patient care training • One year of BSN nursing education • Strong safety awareness and hygiene practices • Experienced with infant & toddler routines • Reliable, punctual, and communication-focused • Comfortable with pets and active households • Skilled in structured play, routine building, and transitions • Experience with scheduling, documentation, and parent updates My Care Style My approach is attentive, engaging, and safety-first.

I’m dependable, respectful of household routines, and I work closely with parents to make sure care aligns with their preferences and values.

Hi! I'm Kennedy, for the past 4 years I have been a nanny for multiple families in the North Kitsap area. I have experience caring for children anywhere from 4 months old to 8 years old, many of my gigs are toddlers 1 year - 3 years old. Before then, all of my experience comes from caring for my niece and nephew! I enjoy being outdoors, crafts, adventuring, and teaching kids new things! I love all animals so I am okay if they are going to be around. I also have experience transporting children, with a clean driving record, so if the position entails driving I am okay with that as well! I'm looking for a long term position.

I love caring for children, and helping them learn new skills while having fun. Reading, outdoor play (walks and local playgrounds), singing and imaginary play with favorite toys - these are some of the activities we will enjoy together.

Hi, I'm Cait! I'm a 24 year old Nanny with 5+ years experience providing care for children aged 0-12. Organised and dependable with a roster of returning client families. I'm known for my ability to get even the most grouchy child laughing!

I am a mother of three grown babies, so my experience with children is quite vast. I home schooled my kids for the first ten years and now my middle will graduate from high school this year and my baby, next year. I love being around kids. I love their energy, their curiosity, and their fearless nature. I am patient, loving, compassionate, and have a deep love for animals and nature, as well as the outdoors.

As a preschool teacher of 3.5 years, I’m seeking a smaller environment where I can still build bonds and make changes. I love working with little minds and hearts and seeing the little wins they make each day. I align with authoritative practices, similar to those of gentle parenting.
