About Helen
Experience: 10 yrs
COVID-19 vaccinated
If you are looking for someone who will love and engage with your child as a family member would - I'm the person! I truly enjoy caring for children of all ages, especially infants and toddlers. For the past eight years I provided childcare in between my schooling and career opportunities. The majority of my experience is caring for children between the ages of 6 months and 3 years old. I am comfortable providing all basic care needs, enjoy imaginative/creative play, and encourage outdoor activities as permitted. I am happy to assist with household chores and cleaning, as it relates to child care. My professional background is as a social worker. I have my Master of Social Work degree from the UW and previously worked for the Department of Social and Health Services within Adult Protective Services.

Helen is AMAZING! She cared for our 8 month old daughter 4 days a week for 6 months. Our daughter adores her. When Helen arrives in the morning (always on time), our daughter squeals in utter excitement and joy to see her. Helen is a very nurturing, gentle and patient. She takes care of our daughter’s every little need and is very observant and communicates well with us. She drives our daughter to her weekly play activities. She is consistent, reliable and trustworthy (and a very safe driver). She communicates well in advance when she needs time off. As a mother who has the typical anxiety that comes with having children, hiring Helen was the best thing we could’ve done. I trust her completely and am I peace when our daughter is in her care because she always has our daughter’s best interests at top of mind. If we could work with Helen forever we would and will miss having her around regularly but we are so fortunate to have gained a friend!
