I have spent my freshmen and Sophomore year (2013-2015) at college working with preschool English language learners. From 2015 to 2018 I worked at Green Tree Early Education center in Downtown Seattle. After graduating from the University of Washington with a degree in Early Education, I went for a Masters in Computer Science from Northeastern University. During my corporate career, I worked EST which allowed me to be an afterschool nanny/manny starting during the pandemic. I have worked with 7 different families and my undergraduate education was focused on infants and toddlers. Most of my experience is in transitional care / mothers helper while the families are on a waitlist for childcare centers. However my most recent experience was as a nanny/manny for two boys with Autism Spectrum disorder. I have an outdated first aid and CPR certification but I am almost certain there has not been any significant changes Read more since 2017.

Brian is awesome with kids. He genuinely wants to spend time with them and help them thrive and grow. He has watched our daughter on noumorous occasions and each time he comes up with fun acticities that keep her engaged. Whether its bunny hunting (the bunnies were not harmed) or coloring, Brian is there for it. And after visits my kiddo can't wait to go back.

Brian provided outstanding care for our infant daughter while also helping keep our household running smoothly. He was attentive, patient, and nurturing, ensuring our daughter was safe, engaged, and meeting developmental milestones through tummy time, basic motor skill activities and early reading. In addition to his childcare responsibilities, Brian assisted with household tasks such as tidying common areas, managing children's laundry, washing bottles, and helping maintain an organized home environment. His reliability, strong work ethic, and genuine care for our family made him an invaluable part of our household. We highly recommend him to any family seeking a trustworthy and capable caregiver.

Brian was a reliable and caring addition for our two elementary-aged children. He consistently managed school pick ups and transportation to extracurricular activities, ensuring our children arrived safely and on time. He prepared snacks, assisted with homework, and helped our children stay organized with their daily responsibilities. He built positive relationships with our children through patience, engagement, and genuine interest in their lives. He knows their favorite superhero.

Brian cared for our infant with warmth, patience, and genuine attentiveness while serving as a bridge caregiver until our child was ready for daycare. He maintained consistent feeding, nap, and play routines, provided enriching developmental activities, and built a strong bond with our child. We always felt confident leaving our baby in his care, knowing they were safe, happy, and well cared for. Brian played an important role in our child's early years and helped prepare them for a smooth transition into a daycare setting. We have also used him consistently as a date night babysitter throughout the years.
