Sarah Clark

Seattle$25/hr | 17 yrs experience

My name is Sarah and I’m looking for a great family to nanny for. I started “babysitting” when I was 11 years old and have gone back to it several times in my life when I’ve been in school. I am changing careers from a state early learning policy specialist to an IT specialist and am looking to support myself by nannying, while I am in school getting my certificates. I am strong, active and smart (I hold a masters degree and have an IQ of 147). I am willing to do light house work, meal prep (I’m an excellent baker and chef with a minor in nutrition science), willing to help with homework (I’ve been a professional tutor in the past and have early childhood Ed credits) and creative projects! I’ve raised several children from birth to 6 but you are the experts on your own children-I would never discipline or do projects without your permission first! I am first and and cpr certified [phone number hidden]

Courtney Volker

Seattle$16/hr | < 1 yr experience

Hi! Whilst I don’t have traditional nanny employment listed is because I’d sit two weekends a month for my aunt, with that I took care of her two kids from the time her youngest was 6 months till she was 5. Moving to the non traditional experience of internships in both a 5th grade and 7th grade classroom respectively. This was all a long winded way to say whilst at first glance I seem very inexperienced, I truly am capable of caring for children or all ages as well as doing homework help or anything along those lines.
Hope to hear from you soon!

How to Hire a Nanny in Seattle, WA

Nanny Lane is a nanny website to help you find a nanny in your area. Our nanny services include background checks, nanny contracts, and nanny payroll.

Understand Nanny Responsibilities in Seattle, WA

Before beginning the search for a nanny, it’s important to understand what you’re looking for and if a nanny is the right choice for your child care needs. In hiring a nanny, first, you should think through what responsibilities you expect your nanny to handle. With that information, you can create a profile so that nannies can reach out to you. The boundaries for nannies duties vary from family to family. In general, a nanny is responsible for making sure your children’s needs are met, including things like ensuring they have opportunities to play and be active. When tasks go beyond child care, for example, housekeeping or meal preparation, it’s good practice to communicate these expectations with your nanny before hiring them. Along with the different duties that you ask for, experience and location can impact how much you should pay your nanny.

Seattle Nanny Interviews

Once you start connecting with prospective nannies, the next step is a nanny interview. To make things a bit easier, here’s a list of some nanny interview questions to consider asking:

Do you have experience being a nanny?
How do you handle tantrums? Can you share an experience disciplining children?
What sort of household tasks are you open to doing?
Are you open to a live in arrangement in Seattle? Do you have experience being a live in nanny?
Are you open to being a nanny in a nanny share?
Do you have any references?
Are you trained in First Aid or CPR in Seattle?
Do you have a driver’s license in WA? Do you own a car?
What salary are you seeking? Are you open to being paid through direct-deposit, pay stubs?
What are your expectations around over-time pay and vacation time?

During the hiring process, it’s essential to ask for references, and by asking their references questions you gain a better understanding of they will fit in your family. As you get closer to hiring a nanny, be sure to run a background check to ensure your kids are in good hands. When evaluating a prospective nanny, it’s essential to make sure you’re setting the foundation for a good relationship with your nanny. You can do this by being clear about your expectations around nanny responsibilities and compensation, and of course, by being friendly and welcoming! And of course, as you learn how to hire a nanny, Nanny Lane's nanny services are here to help you along the way.
