Martha has provided a fun learning enviroment as a King County After School Nanny. She is able to help with homework while still providing the exceptional care our families deserve!

"I've cared for many families children over the years in addition to the three of my own, and its been such a beautiful and humbling experience to watch them grow into outstanding young adults. My eldest son graduated from college last year, and my daughter and the other children I cared for around her age are all graduating high school and moving onto college. I love getting to know people and families, and I feel thats why it's been so natural for me to work as a nanny for so long. They become a part of my family as I become a part of theirs. Learning new things, reading, and being active are among my favorite activities, and these go hand in hand with caring for a growing child. In the future I aspire to see my other two children graduate from college, to touch up my home, and to run outside more. The reason I have chosen to be in the Nanny profession over any other is because Ive always been great at working with children and it has allowed me to connect with other families and utilize my skills! I have been serving in some form of childcare for over 24 years and can honestly say that I love and enjoy what I do! I feel children are: brilliant, funny, heartwarming, and all special in their own way. My goal as a King County After School Nanny is to help the children I care for realize their full potential and be confident in themselves, while also teaching them to be kind and respectful. And sometimes teaching them some Spanish as well, if they're interested! I am willing to do housekeeping that includes light laundry, vacuuming, cooking, and kitchen cleaning/dusting. If I had to describe myself in five adjectives I would say that I am nurturing, kind, encouraging, comforting, and determined. Activities that I would like to incorporate in the daily plan for the family I care for would include reading, spending time outside at a park or walking around the neighborhood, watching some educational TV! If asked to describe the perfect family seeking a Nanny like me I would hope they would be kind and worldly people. I've often shared not only my language but my culture and food with the families I've worked for, and I'd love to continue that in the future, while also learning new things from them.”

“I am writing on behalf of Martha regarding the position of King County After School Nanny for your child. Martha was our nanny for our son since he was 6 months old. I was a first time Mom and tried several local daycare options in the area, but nothing really worked well. My neighbor was due to have her first baby soon and we discussed looking for in home care. We interviewed many applicants and after much deliberation, Martha was clearly the only candidate that fulfilled both of our needs. From the first day, Martha became someone I could completely count on for anything my child needed and looked to her for advice as she has three wonderful children of her own! My neighbor eventually had another child and we were fortunate to have Martha take care of our kids until they went off to school. I've known Martha for over 11 years and feel I can speak to her character and abilities quite well. Since Martha's first day, she has always been the most gentle and caring person you could want for your child. My son was born one month premature and had some developmental issues and she was always cautious and nurturing even on his fussiest day. She has the best disposition for handling stressful situations as always keeps a level head even when multiple kids are screaming around her with their own individual demands. Just knowing she was there taking care of everything when I couldn't due to work constraints, just gave me piece of mind as I never once felt I needed to worry about anything concerning my child. She's highly dependable, energetic, and resourceful when in your home as she assisted with cleaning & laundry, and did a lot of prep work when kids were sleeping which was just icing on the cake. She was also extremely conscientious and considerate with her time as never late and was even flexible to help out sometimes after hours if I had late meetings or on weekends to attend an event. I cannot speak enough to all the attributes Martha possesses and how she made a huge impact in our lives. I would highly recommend Martha to anyone looking for a wonderful addition to your family's life and care of your little one. I know you will love her as we did and still do.”

“Martha was amazing for my sons. I still keep in touch with her to this day. My kids still know and love her. Martha was a dependable, caring and loving King County After School Nanny to my sons. She was extremely easy to work with and I never doubted her ability to take care of my children or her reliability. I’ve had many people help me with my children over the years, Martha was the best.

“Martha worked as our nanny for quite some time and I am happy to share my experience having her with our family. Having known Martha for so long, and knowing what an exemplary mother she is and how good a nanny she had been for other families, I thought she'd be the perfect person to help me out with my sons and I definitely made the right choice. My sons were 1 and 3 years old when Martha started working for me. With my very busy schedule she was a godsend as she was always timely, and my children loved her. She is kind, patient, and gentle, and because she speaks both English and Spanish, I was happy knowing that my sons would be regularly practicing both languages. Martha is always so careful and detailed in her work, truly ensuring that all my children’s needs were being met, and also helping with light house errands from time to time. She is like another member of our family now and if it weren't for my children being in school full-time now I would absolutely continue having her watch over them. I recommend Martha as a King County After School Nanny without hesitation.”

“I have known Martha for the past 5 years and have had the pleasure of having her in my life. I have seen Martha work on administrative projects, help countless people organizing their work, and support the success of many events. She is highly organized, dynamic, and yet humble. She is a team player, team builder, and a team leader. Her integrity and honesty are without reproach. I recommend her as a King County After School Nanny without hesitation!”
