Hi, I'm Faith! I've spent more than seven years helping little ones grow, giggle, and get into (the good kind of) trouble. I've cared for children from their very first night home from the hospital through the school years. I've worked with more than 10 families, from cozy newborn bubbles to a busy household of five kids ages 9 months to 6. I've logged 360+ hours of overnight newborn care, introduced solids (and survived the mess), and potty trained many children. Along the way I've learned that every child has their own timeline, and my favorite part of the job is watching it unfold.

My approach is Montessori-inspired and child-led. I set up safe, inviting spaces where kids can explore, choose their own activities, and discover what they can do themselves. Whether that's pouring their own water, stacking blocks for the fifteenth time, or finally mastering a zipper, that independence builds real confidence. I follow each child's curiosity and gently guide it with developmentally appropriate play, nutrition, and routines. That way, every day of fun is also a day of building skills.

Your family's peace of mind matters just as much to me. I'm a certified Newborn Care Specialist, Infant, Child & Adult CPR certified, and Safe Sleep trained. I also have four years of experience in DCYF-regulated childcare and two years with CDWA programs. I'm a big believer in open communication, so expect clear updates and shared tracking for feeding, naps, and milestones. I'm proudly based in Tacoma and serving families across the Puget Sound area. I'd love to meet your family, so let's chat!
