Looking for a RESPONSIBLE Nanny (Woodenville, WA)
I am looking for a responsible person to come and care for my 3 month old son and 5 year old daughter. I will need someone from 8am to 5pm, monday through friday. My daughter is a half day PM kindergartener and will need to be dropped off and picked up at her bus stop (which is the end of the driveway). I'm looking for a trusting person with a valid DL, CPR certification and of course experience with children, a WA State background check will be run. If you are a SAHM looking for some extra cash this may be for you you are free to bring your child(ren) to my home. I am able to pay a flat rate up to $600 a month which includes paid holidays. I am looking for someone to start at the beginning of January if not sooner. I really hope there is someone out there who can help! Please contact me if you are interested. Lacey

RE: Looking for a RESPONSIBLE Nanny (Woodenville)
I am not a nanny, I am a mother. I have two kids. I wouldn't even think of paying our nanny less than $12 an hour (we actually pay her more) and she brings her kid with her! Unless I am misunderstanding, you are looking to pay a nanny $3.75 an hour? For full time work? Good luck with that!

Housekeeper needed-Very PT-some childcare-flexible schedule (Marysville)
Hello. I am looking for someone who may have a couple of hours a week to help me clean and organize my home. I am a single mother, working two jobs, and am also a full-time student. So when a free moment comes my way, I really don't want to spend it cleaning or running errands. This position is very flexible and I'm only looking for someone 2-5 hrs. a week. The cleaning I require is just the basics (sweeping, vacuuming, dusting, windexing windows & mirrors, doing dishes, etc.) nothing really strenuous, and I don't expect all this done every time. I also may need an occassional baby-sitter. No late hours, just maybe so I can go to a movie, or out to lunch or dinner without having to take my daughter with me. Now as I said earlier, I am a single parent, and I wouldn't be working a second job if the first one paid the bills, so I can not afford much. I am hoping to find someone who would be willing to accept a small hourly amount as well as something to trade. Do you use a laundry mat? Bring your laundry here and wash your clothes for free.(Save the quarter rolls). I can also offer you some groceries and a few home cooked meals. Other incentives are: I will NOT be claiming your pay on my taxes, so you wont need to either. Also, you may bring a child with you if needed, but I feel that a toddler will probably just get in to everything, and I also have stairs that they may fall on too, but an infant, or a child over 4 yrs. old will probably be okay. Hourly pay: $2.50 an hour, $4.50 an hour for baby-sitting. If you're interested, please e-mail me back at maryatwto@**** and we'll talk more. If you're going to write to me to harrass me about the low pay, please don't bother. I know it's low, but it's all I can afford. I'm really hoping to just find someone who is bored at home and wants something to do, and maybe to make a new friend as well. Thanks!! --Mary
