About Delaney

Experience: 10 yrs

Hi! I'm Delaney, a West-Seattlite, cat mom, and University of Washington graduate with a masters in child and adolescent psychology. I have worked with children and teens in a variety of roles including nanny, art teacher, birthday party host, child welfare worker, preschool assistant, and mental health counselor. I would describe my nannying style as patient, fun, and creative. I pay attention to children's natural interests and tailor our activities together based on those interests. I also love taking kids out on adventures around the comminity! Some of my favorite spots are libraries, game stores, parks, museums, farms, and gardens. My education and professional background have provided me with a comprehensive understanding of child development and mental health. I have experience working with neurodivergent children. In addition to childcare, I can assist with light house keeping, pet care, errands, transportation, and meals.

Delaney has babysat for us frequently over the past two years, and has been absolutely phenomenal with our 6 year old. Our daughter loves Delaney for her patience, kindness, and the calm, fun energy she brings to their time together, mixing the kinds of play that they do and getting outside when they can. On the longer days she is with her, they will make a list of what they plan to do together and then complete them all, which my daughter is all about. We love her as she is also organized, reliable, always punctual, and a great communicator. I would recommend her to any family- she really is one of the most professional babysitters we have had, and the one my daughter most requests to come back. Complete 5 star recommendation.
