Lisa works with children of all ages as a Seattle Before School Nanny and remains dedicated to her work!

“I have always loved to work with children. My goal has been to work with them children for a living. I grew up with a large family and my youngest brother was diagnosed with Asperger Syndrome at a young age, I have some experience dealing with special needs. I have worked in a local daycare as a teacher’s aide. I have volunteered as a high school youth group leader. If I was asked to describe in one sentence the reason I have chosen to be in the nanny profession I would be able to do this in a one on one child focused environment. I have been serving some form of child care or another for over ten years, and can honestly say that I love it! I think that children are delightful. I love the way they think and absorb the world around them. Their natural curiosity for the things they don't understand is uplifting. I enjoy their ability to think outside the box. My goal as a Seattle Before School Nanny is to encourage children to explore their talents and gifts, and to cultivate their imagination and curiosity, while instilling the disciplinary and structural measures set by their parents. I am able to do housekeeping that includes dusting, dishes, vacuuming, sweeping, mopping, taking out the trash, and cooking/preparing meals. Some interesting facts about me are that I play guitar, sing and write some of my own songs. I also love theater. Activities that I would like to incorporate in the daily plan for the family I care for would include are projects, reading time, structural and free play. When the weather is nice, I would be inclined to take the children to the park. Other outings might include going to the library, a museum, or an afternoon theater production. If asked to describe the perfect family seeking nanny like me, I would hope they would be one that values nurture and creativity, as well as encourages learning opportunities with their children.”

“Lisa is a very kind hardworking Seattle Before School Nanny. She is patient and understanding. She has a heart for children and is very eager and creative. Lisa and I worked together at a daycare together. I was a fulltime teacher and Lisa would come and relieve our teachers in the classroom during the day. Lisa was always compassionate and eager to help out in whatever room was needed. Lisa was always willing to stay late if someone else needed to leave early.”

“I have supervised Lisa’s activities with children and youth. She has been responsible for the youth band for the last four years and has mentored the youth that have been in the band. She has taken leadership in our youth group and worked alongside other adult leaders to plan meetings, retreats, and other activities. She has a great capacity to love others and to engage them in meaningful conversation. She is loving and kind and is willing to help out in whatever ways she can. Lisa would be an asset to any family as a Seattle Before School Nanny and would be a great influence on their children.”

“I worked with Lisa on our Sr. High Youth Staff. I know her to be thoughtful, gentle, and compassionate in working with our teens who come to us from a variety of backgrounds and experiences. She strives to bring out their best as she works with them on the music team. She seeks to develop individual relationships with each one of them, fostering sincere and open communication. I know that I can count on Lisa for her honesty and encouragement as her friends and co-workers. The past several years, Lisa has balanced her youth work with her regular employment! Though circumstances might have been stressful, she always maintained an upbeat, thoughtful attitude. Lisa is responsible, optimistic, and loving. Lisa would make an excellent Seattle Before School Nanny for you family.”
