Special Needs Date Night Sitter

I love caring for all children and adults and have enjoyed caring for 3 children/teens with Autism/Asperger's syndrome. I have the patience to wait out any meltdowns or flare ups without reacting. I have a generous amount of understanding and love and want every child (or adult) to feel respected and cared about. I worked for public schools in the offices and classrooms, specifically the Special Ed. classes as a para pro (classroom assistant) substitute. Behavioral classroom was my favorite.

Rachel D.|Seattle, WA

Doting Nanny And Experienced Sitter

Responds within a few days

Hello! Thank you for considering me in your search for the perfect childcare provider! As the oldest of 6 children, I've had a hand in childcare for as long as I can remember. My youngest brother (now 13) was diagnosed with Down Syndrome and Autism as a baby, and I was 13 when he was born, so I have extensive experience taking care of special needs kiddos. I also have over 10 years of childcare experience outside my own family - from date night babysitting when I was in high school to a couple different full-time nanny jobs in 2017 and 2018. So far the most kids I've cared for at once (outside my own family) is 2, though I'd be comfortable working with up to 4. Beyond childcare, I'm also an experienced teacher! I was a private tutor from 2014 to 2018, and from July 2018 to March 2021 I was an ES & JHS English teacher in northern Japan! Please don't hesitate to ask me about a childcare/tutoring package!

Rachel was a full-time nanny for our 3 year old daughter in our home from March-June 2017. We could tell she was great with kids and our daughter was comfortable with her from the beginning. She was very patient and caring. She was also very engaging, had creative ideas, and did lots of activities with our daughter. She took her to the park, played with her, read books, fed her, and so much more. She was very reliable and trustworthy. We could always count on her to arrive right on time or a little early and she had no problem staying late in the afternoon as necessary. Rachel was very dedicated and even came in when she was sick one week, which was greatly appreciated! We can't recommend Rachel highly enough and would definitely hire her again!

Hi! My name is Hannah and I have always had a passion for childcare and early development. I just recently moved from my hometown in Florida where I cared for my baby step sister since she was 4 to 10 years old. I am CPR and First Aid Certified. I love reading and watching movies as well as teaching and sharing knowledge with children. I am fulfilled when I successfully help another person learn something new and so that's why I've finally made the decision to sit and offer early learning tutoring as well as certain special needs care if desired!
