Hello! My name is Lydia. Originally from Texas, my husband and I have fallen in love with Seattle and all it has to offer. We enjoy visiting all the fantastic coffee shops, enjoying the parks, and have even come to appreciate the dreariness. I've been working with kids on and off for over ten years now. In that time I've volunteered in church nurseries, at the Boys & Girls club, worked as a camp counselor, babysat at weddings and retreats, nannied, and doted on my four nieces and nephews. While I have experience with elementary aged kids, my favorites are the littles. Anything under four is my sweet spot :) My guiding philosophy when it comes to childcare is respecting the personhood of kids. Children are people who deserve respect and compassion while they learn to navigate the world. I do a lot of research on child development and parenting Read more tactics because I want to do my best to help your children become considerate, capable, and confident adults.
