My passion is caring for kids. They are honest, sweet, hilarious and they humble us. I studied Early Childhood Education in Seattle WA. I have 8+ years experience as a nanny.

We can't say enough good things about Joy. We went through two preschools, one camp and three nanny's before we found Joy. She went the distance to make my kids feel safe and heard and gained their trust and love. She would bring over art projects for them, take them to the park, helped foster relationships with new friends in the neighborhood. They would cook together and play music. We got tons of videos and pictures through the day. She felt like a part of our family. She also was a godsend helping us with chores around the house. We would absolutely recommend her and we hope she's available next summer!

I cannot speak highly enough of our incredible nanny, Joy. As a first-time mom, leaving my precious baby with someone else was daunting.  However, from the moment we met Joy, our worries melted away. She radiates genuine affection for our baby, and it's evident that he feels the same way.

Every drop-off and pick-up is a happy occasion. Our baby is always in a good mood after a day with Joy and will run to the door if “Joy Joy” is on the way.  She is a sense of comfort on the hard days of teething and navigating growing pains providing lots of cuddles.  She also sends pictures and updates throughout the day which is always a highlight for a mom.  Joy goes above and beyond to ensure she and the baby have quality time together. They go outdoors whenever possible, enjoying the fresh air. They also create a number of special arts and crafts which are now keepsakes.

We feel incredibly fortunate to have found Joy. She not only cares for our baby's well-being but also nurtures his development and creativity. I wholeheartedly recommend Joy to any parent seeking a warm, loving, and skilled caregiver. She truly is a gem, and we are beyond grateful to have her in our lives.

Joy has been a wonderful partner in helping care for our child. She is extraordinarily patient and kind with children and very interactive. With every stage of development, Joy curates all kinds of activities (outdoor walks/ parks, arts & crafts, reading, singing, etc.) as well as facilitates independent play. Joy is a great communicator & highly dependable. 

Joy is the best nanny you will ever find!  Joy nannied our little ones for three years (2019-2022) and has become part of our family as a result. Her calming and caring presence, professionalism, and child-development skills have undoubtedly touched the hearts of our little ones, giving them a huge jump-start in their emotional and educational well-being.  We love the passion that Joy has for this profession, and if it wasn't for our kids needing the social atmosphere of post-toddler-hood, we would have kept Joy forever.

Joy is extremely punctual and updated me throughout the night while my husband and I got much needed time away for a few hours. Would definitely contact her again when I need more help!

Joy is extremely patient and gentle yet also full of energy--was the perfect fit for my high-energy 9-month-old. She's very trustworthy and was the first sitter I felt comfortable with to drive/take my son to the zoo. Highly recommend her and would've loved to have hired her as our nanny, but sadly we moved cross-country.

Joy took care of my infant daughter and toddler son for three months and was always willing to stay later, come earlier, was great with the kids. Was a pleasure to have in our home. Recommend her to any family looking for childcare.

Joy is amazing!!! We love having her as a part of the family and made it easy (if that's a thing) for me to go back to work for the first time after going on maternity leave. She is amazing with our daughter L. as well as our two fur babies. 

You'd be luck to have her!

Joy is absolutely wonderful with children!  She is highly dependable and you can tell that caring for children isn't just a job for her. She genuinely cares for them and is even interested in their development. You won't see her on her phone just passing time but actually engaging, reading and playing with the children.  Joy was meant to care for children and it really shows.  I would definitely recommend hiring her and would trust her with my child any day.  I actually wish that she still lived in Seattle so that I could hire her again!

Joy looked after our little girl for about 15 months, from the age of about 1 1/2 to almost 3. She is very patient, sweet, and kind. She has a sunny, optimistic personality and our daughter was always happy to see her come and sad to see her leave.
