Meet college nannies and sitters from University of Washington

Hi, My name is Rebecca, and I’m a mama of two. We live in Shoreline. I’m looking to care for 1 or 2 additional children in my home as a way to earn a bit of extra income. We have a warm, family centered environment with lots to offer- toys, a spacious backyard with a swing and slide, and we’re just a few minutes away from Twin Ponds Park. I’m happy to provide meals and snacks but you’re also welcome to pack your child’s food and snacks if you prefer. I’m also comfortable with diaper changes if your little one isn’t potty trained yet. If you’re looking for a loving and caring, home-based setting for your child, I’d love to connect and chat more! 😊

Hi! I’m Julisa, a senior at the University of Washington offering dependable child care, pet care, and light household support in the Seattle area. I’ve cared for children ages 6 months to early teens since I was 16, bringing a mix of energy, patience, and creativity to each job—whether it’s playtime, homework help, or school pickups. I have a safe, reliable car and am comfortable driving kids to activities, appointments, or wherever they need to go. I’m a lifelong animal lover with experience caring for both dogs and cats. I’ve worked with reactive dogs and have hands-on experience with puppy training as well. I grew up with two cats and now have a dog named Orion, who’s back home in California with my family. Alongside child and pet care, I’m happy to help with light cooking, tidying up, errands, or anything else that keeps your home running smoothly.

Hi! I’m a caring, responsible, and energetic sitter who genuinely loves children. I’m currently a UW finance student, and I grew up helping care for my two younger sisters—especially my youngest sister, who I helped raise from birth through age five with a 14-year age gap. Because of this, I’m very comfortable with infants and young children and familiar with daily routines like feeding, playtime, and bedtime. In addition to family experience, I have professional babysitting experience for a neighbor and have cared for children of different ages. I’ve also had a house dog my entire life, so I’m very comfortable caring for pets and making sure they’re happy, safe, and well cared for. I’m very active, enjoy playing sports and keeping kids engaged, and I’m always happy to help with homework. I can also assist with light household cleaning and keeping things organized. I’m dependable, attentive, and bring a positive, upbeat attitude to every family I work with!

Hi my name is balkhais, I’m currently a 4th year student at the university of Washington. I am a caring, patient and reliable individual with a genuine love for working with children. I prioritize creating a safe, nurturing and engaging environment where children can grow, learn and feel supported. I’m attentive to children’s routines, needs, and emotional well-being and I’m comfortable assisting with feeding, diaper changes, naps, playtime and light household tasks related to childcare. I pride myself on being dependable, communicative and respectable of family values and I always aim to provide families with peace of mind while their child is in my care.

Hi! I’m Leila, a student at the University of Washington with several years of experience working with children. In high school, I completed a 3-year childcare career pathway program where I worked closely with kids of different ages through activities, learning, and care. I also have hands-on experience caring for my two infant nieces and younger cousins, so I’m very comfortable with routines, playtime, meals, and helping children feel safe and supported. I’m responsible, patient, energetic, and love keeping kids engaged with fun activities like crafts, games, reading, and outdoor play. Families can count on me to be reliable, communicative, and create a positive environment where children feel comfortable and cared for. I have two ragdoll cats of my own, and I am very comfortable around pets!

Hi! My name is Yasmin. I’m available for child, pet, and household care services and would love to support local families who need an extra hand. I’ve been providing sitting care since I was a teen, supporting children of all ages. I’m a first-generation college graduate with a B.A. in Psychology (2021) and an M.Ed. in Special Education with an emphasis in Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) (2025) from the University of Washington. I’ve worked in the field of ABA since 2021 supporting neurodiverse children and families across clinic, home, school, and community settings. I also offer pet care especially for cats (I have a sweet cat named Nova myself!) and light household help like organizing, and cleaning. Outside of work, I love exploring Seattle with friends, checking out new cafes and playing my switch!

I hold bachelor’s degrees in Biomedical Engineering and Computer Science and have years of experience caring for children of different ages. I previously worked long-term as a babysitter, worked in an after-school daycare program, and was a teacher at Bright Horizons. I’m detail-oriented, attentive, responsible, calm under pressure, and genuinely enjoy creating a safe and engaging environment for kids. I can also provide strong references if needed.

Hello! My name is Kyah. I was a babysitter for 3 years before becoming an Emergency Medical Technician (EMT). After working as an EMT for the last year I have made the decision to transfer back into what I love doing, babysitting! I enjoy coming up with engaging activities for children and cooking nutritious meals. Having a history as an EMT has given be the knowledge of Basic Life Support for children and adults as well! On top of nurturing young minds, I love cooking and cleaning up around the house.

Hi! I’m a college student going into my second year with years of experience caring for children in both home and educational settings. I’ve worked with kids of all ages, from toddlers to school-aged children, and I truly enjoy building strong, positive relationships with every child I work with. I'm kind, respectful, and reliable, and I always bring patience and creativity into my care. Whether it’s helping with homework, following routines, or planning fun activities, I focus on creating a safe and supportive environment where kids can feel comfortable and thrive!

My background includes supporting families with children on consistent routines, balancing the needs of multiple kids, and ensuring safe, engaging days filled with age‑appropriate activities. I’m confident in managing feedings, diaper changes, and maintaining sleep schedules while keeping play areas tidy. I also enjoy preparing healthy meals and supporting household routines, including washing bottles and baby dishes, so parents can relax and enjoy their weekends. Families I’ve worked with value my calm and caring presence, especially during busy moments when infants and toddlers need different kinds of attention at the same time. I’m also comfortable driving around Seattle for outings or errands if needed. I’d love to become a trusted partner in your children’s care and bring a joyful, nurturing energy to your home.
