Meet college nannies and sitters from University of Washington

Hi! I’m Fatima, a student at the University of Washington’s Foster School of Business, and I genuinely love working with children. As the oldest in my family, I naturally grew up helping care for younger siblings and relatives, and I’ve been babysitting children of all ages, from newborns to preteens since I was 12 years old. I love creating a warm, safe, and fun environment where kids feel comfortable being themselves. Whether we’re doing crafts, playing outside, helping with homework, baking treats, or simply having fun together, I always try to make sure children feel supported, happy, and cared for. I also understand how important trust and communication are for parents, and I always strive to be someone families can truly rely on. In past nannying and babysitting experiences, I’ve helped with school pick-ups and drop-offs, tutoring, meal prep, bedtime routines, light housekeeping, and keeping busy schedules organized. More than anything, I love building genuine connections with the families I work with and becoming a positive and dependable presence in children’s lives. Families often describe me as patient, caring, responsible, and energetic, and I would love the opportunity to get to know your family and support your little ones!

Hi, I’m Paige and I’m an HCC teacher in Seattle Public Schools. I am certificated to teach K-8, with ample childcare experience. I am CPR certified. I also have experience providing care and support to elders. I am comfortable and confident managing and taking care of multiple people (and pets!) at once. I also have plenty of housekeeping and cleaning experience. I love working with people and getting to know families!

With a decade of experience caring for children and seniors, I have developed strong skills in providing reliable, compassionate, and attentive care. My background includes adapting to various needs, and creating safe, engaging environments for children. From managing daily routines and meal prep to organizing activities that foster learning and creativity, I am committed to ensuring a nurturing experience. In addition to caregiving, I am currently an Office Manager at a medical clinic, where I oversee scheduling, medical records, and administrative tasks. My diverse experience reflects my dedication to responsibility, organization, and providing quality care.

I adore children and have two boys myself which I feel is enough for me. I enjoy playing with them especially under 5 when they are cute and fun. But at the end at the day, I would prefer to return to their parents. I can be gentle yet firm for children that like to test boundaries- it allows me to be creative, playful and enjoy seeing their little wheels spinning when I interact with them. In addition, I like pets, but my household have allergy to pet dander so this is one way I can get my baby/ pet fix without having to raise them.

Hi, my name is Jordan. I am a recent college grad from UW Seattle. I am very outdoorsy, personable, compassionate and patient, and I love children and animals! I have been babysitting and pet sitting since I was in high school in 2017. I am currently working full time as a Day Camp Counselor with the Outdoors for All Foundation. I was invited back to summer programming after excelling as a children’s Adaptive Ski Instructor during the winter season. In this role, I supervise and engage youth in adaptive recreational activities, ensuring fun and safety in a camp setting that tailor to individual needs. Along with my co-counselors, I help to promote social development, independence, confidence-building through accessible play and recreation. This role ends at the end of summer, so I am looking for a full time role as a nanny this fall! I have experience babysitting children of all ages, my most recent nanny position was for two boys (6, 4) for the first 6 months of 2025. I prepared breakfast and packed lunches, drove them to school, and picked them up from school when requested. I was also a consistent caretaker for a family in my hometown for a girl and a boy (5, 1) for 3 years. I love taking children on walks/to the park, doing puzzles and learning games, reading to them, cooking and feeding them, and taking them to any necessary appointments, schooling, etc. I have a car so I am available to drive if needed. I have lots of experience with pet-sitting, primarily with large dogs (golden retrievers, doodles, bulldogs, and a German shepherd). I also grew up with dogs my whole life and have never met a dog I didn’t love (also fond of cats, but have less experience pet-sitting cats). I volunteer at the Seattle Humane Society and am a huge lover of pets. Some of my favorite things to do when dog-sitting are going for walks, taking them to the dog park (if they are comfortable with other dogs/people), and spending time with them inside. I have plenty of references if you are looking to get in touch with any of my past contacts. Please reach out to me on this platform if you are in need of assistance!

With your kids I am open to academic tutoring, arts and crafts, outdoor play, and really anything that keeps them engaged or interested! I have two years of full-time classroom experience and have completed a Teacher Certification Program. Additionally, I served with Americorps as an assistant teacher in a fourth grade classroom.

Hello there! My name is Clare - I’m a female identifying 26 year old currently living in Capitol Hill. After recently returning from working at the local clinic on San Juan Island this winter, and teaching English to elementary students in Spain last fall, I’m looking forward to spending this next chapter at Seattle University obtaining my Nurse Practitioner Doctorate! With a professional history of 3 years at Seattle Children’s Hospital working as a nursing assistant, supporting a Montessori preschool in north Seattle after graduating from UW in 2022, and extensive childcare experience throughout high school, I’m excited to be able to support another wonderful family. I am CPR certified for infants, children and adults, have experience working on a small organic farm with goats and chickens, and am fully licensed to drive with a personal vehicle as well as a current Washington State CNA license for more extensive care needs. I’m so happy to provide more information about myself and my background as desired, and I so look forward to sharing and connecting!

Hi! I’m Suhur. I’m a college student and experienced in childcare who genuinely loves working with kids and being part of their little world. Whether we’re doing crafts, reading stories or playing outside. I love creating a fun, safe, and comforting environment where children can feel happy and themselves. I’m patient, dependable, and easy to communicate with, and I treat every child with care, kindness, and lots of positive energy!

Hello, my name is Kelsey and I have over 20 years of experience working with children. I am looking for work in childcare and petcare. I have varied experience in babysitting both daytime and overnight care, and i also have experience teaching and have volunteered many years as a camp counselor. When I am tasked with caring for a child, I like to play with them in their world and engage at their level while also bringing in learning and fun activities. I am good with newborns and do not get flustered at crying. I typically care for 2-4 kids at a time and mostly between the ages of 0-10. When it comes to pets, I’ve had dogs and cats my entire life and am comfortable with any size or age of pet. I have experience with rodents and horses as well. I’ve never had reptiles or birds, but have always liked them and am willing to care for them with clear instruction. As far as skills are concerned, I am very patient and I perform well under pressure. I can cook, clean, and do laundry, and have a lot of experience with prioritizing multiple tasks at once. I am a devout Christian woman and as such I believe in doing everything I take on with integrity. Because of this, I believe that parents are ordained by God to know what’s best for their children, and I do my best to honor that when caring for someone else’s child. I am looking to supplement my income as I pursue my Accounting degree, and will take on occasional or regular work.

I’m the oldest sibling and have hands-on experience helping raise 3 siblings, 5 cousins, and 4 nieces and nephews, so caring for kids is second nature to me. I’ve worked with a wide range of ages and know how to balance structure, patience, and fun. I also have experience tutoring and teaching, which allows me to help with homework, keep kids engaged, and support their learning. I’m responsible, attentive, and good at reading kids’ needs, whether that’s keeping them active, calm, or on a routine. I take pride in creating a safe, positive, and supportive environment for every child.
