Find a professional and trustworthy Laurelhurst After School Nanny with ABC Nanny Source

"What impressed me the most about working with ABC Nanny Source was the level of detail and organization in which such confidential information was presented. I received an extensive profile of each nanny candidate prior to her coming to my home for an interview. Once each nanny arrived at my door, I was fully relaxed because I felt I already knew the person in front of me! That’s how detailed these profiles were. The process was made very easy for our family and within a matter of days, I hired the perfect nanny for our children!"

Joleen is a Laurelhurst After School Nanny because she loves helping children learn!

“I am currently a passionate and loving preschool teacher for three and four-year-old’s. This is my 4th year teaching, and every year I have been blessed with new students and new opportunities to grow as an educator while caring for and teaching children, preparing them for Kindergarten. If I was asked to describe in one sentence the reason I have chosen to be in the nanny profession over any other, it would have to be because it is the rewarding and worthwhile job to work one-on-one with children. Because of my love of children and dedication to keeping them safe and happy, while educating them for later life, that I think this is the ideal career for me. I have been serving in some form of childcare experience for over 4 years and can honestly say I am passionate about what I do! I feel the children are unique individuals yearning to grow and develop to their full potential. My goal as a Laurelhurst After School Nanny is to form a special relationship with children where they will trust me in their care, be excited to learn, and have fun! I am willing to do housekeeping that includes cooking, cleaning, and laundry. If I had to describe myself in five adjectives I would say that I am driven, loving, hardworking, enthusiastic, and fun. Activities that I would like to incorporate in the daily plan for the family I care for would include reading, cooking, play-doh, outside exploration, physical activities, and creative expression through art and music. If asked to describe the perfect family seeking a nanny like me, I would hope they would be enthusiastic for a childcare provider who will shape their child’s young mind to establish lifelong habits and learning that will aid them in later life.”

“We have employed Joleen many times over the last couple of years in this capacity for several reasons. First, she is extremely diligent in following our directions. My husband and I believe it is very important for children to keep to a 'relative' schedule when their parents are gone; this provides consistency and stability for our children. Joleen understands our requests and follows them when she watches our children. Second, Joleen has a very good demeanor with children. Aside from when she has taken care of our children, we have seen her in larger group settings with over 20 children (where she was responsible for all of the children with one other person). Even when the children got rowdy she was able to discipline them in the right manner while not becoming overly strict. Lastly, and what I feel is very important, our children enjoy having her as their Laurelhurst After School Nanny. They know she will be firm but friendly and truly care about what they are doing or have to say.”

“My child (age 4) was under the supervision of Joleen for a full school year. I have the utmost confidence in Joleen's ability to care for children. Joleen is very loving and nurturing with the children and creates a fun and creative learning environment. Joleen creates close bonds with the children and has very gentle disposition. I would not hesitate to refer Joleen for a Laurelhurst After School Nanny position. Her ability to care for young children is exceptional.”

“I met Joleen this year when she became my son’s pre-school teacher. After meeting her I knew right away my son would be in great hands. Throughout the year I have discovered Joleen to be creative, energetic, loving, caring and very easy going. My son immediately formed a bond with Joleen that will forever be printed in his heart and mind. As a former nanny myself I know Joleen will be a great asset to any family seeking a Laurelhurst After School Nanny.”

“I would highly recommend Joleen to any family seeking a Laurelhurst After School Nanny. Joleen completed a 14-week student teaching placement in my Kindergarten inclusion classroom setting at my Elementary School. The classroom contained 23 students from a low-socioeconomic background. During this time, Joleen planned and implemented cross-curricular lesson plans using district-wide curriculum and resources. While in the classroom, Joleen quickly assumed the role of the teacher. With her eagerness to "jump-into" teaching, she navigated through the curriculum and began teaching math during her second week of placement. From here, her perseverance drove her to success. Joleen's caring and empathetic attitude allowed her to develop a positive rapport with the students. She showed compassion and a mutual respect between her and the students developed. She displays determination and dedication in her demeanor.”
